Once upon a time in the land of Ohio, there lived a cat. This cat's name was Snowball, and she was very happy at her farm home with the family that cared for her. She was a beautiful fluffy white cat that charmed all those who saw her. Many people were envious of Snowball's owners because they wished they had a cat just like her.
One day as Snowball was taking a walk in the yard, a sinister-looking car pulled up beside her. Before she knew it, a hand reached out of the car and pulled her within. Snowball was the unwilling captive of a strange family!
Unbeknownst to the catnappers, Jo--the mother of the family that owed Snowball--had seen the car that drove off with her pet from the kitchen window. She was pretty upset that they had taken her cat, and she planned on getting Snowball back!
Every day, Jo watched the cars that drove by her house, looking for the car that had taken poor Snowball away. She was pretty sure that the car belonged to someone that drove by her house often, as she lived in a small town. Sure enough, the car came driving by a few days later.
Jo was ready for them.
As soon as she saw the car drive by, she rushed to her car and began the chase! After winding through country roads and bumping over potholes, the sinister car turned in to a driveway. Jo waited for the driver and passengers to enter the house, then pulled in the driveway, got out of her car, and knocked on the door. A woman answered.
Jo got straight to the point. "Where is my cat?" she demanded. The woman pretended ignorance. "Your cat? We don't have your cat." At that point, Snowball entered the room. Jo said, "That's my cat! Come here, Snowball." Snowball came, Jo picked her up and stalked out the door.
They never had a problem with catnappers again.
Wha.... that is awesome!
