Puppywolf
By Lauri C. Meyers
“I can be a werewolf for
Halloween!” Puppy woofed.
“I can sharpen my teeth on this skeleton!”
“You mean your chewy bone?” Cat asked with sass.
“I can howl at the moon. A-woo!
A-woo!” Puppy howled.
“Sounds
like a screech owl.” Cat covered her ears.
“I can stick up my ears and
growl.”
“That
ear is still floppy.” Cat laughed.
“I’m a werewolf,” Puppy said. “And I smell cat!”
Cat hid under the couch.
“I can creep in the shadows, finding my prey, and… pounce!”
Cat hissed.
“Save your pouncing for trick-or-treaters, werewolf!”
