Floyd | I do not have a name, but I think that someday soon I will. I have
Floyd | heard Him talk many times of other things that have names, things like
Floyd | Mom, Dad, Emily, Stuart, God. So I think I will have a name someday
Floyd | soon, although I do not know how I get a name. Is it something I have
Floyd | to do? Is there somewhere I have to go? All I know is that for now, He
Floyd | calls me just one thing: Cat.

Floyd | Soft Place
Floyd | You live in a nice soft place inside a bigger space that has three
Floyd | ows, and one moveable ow. You call these things ows because they hurt
Floyd | when you run into them, and the moving ow (mow) only He can move. The
Floyd | soft place is where you sleep and it smells like you. Outside the soft
Floyd | space is where He puts the food and water. The food is ok, but the
Floyd | milk you used to have was much better. You wonder if He could get some
Floyd | of that again.
Floyd |
Floyd | He always shuts the mow, but today he has left it open. You do not
Floyd | know what is beyond it, except what you have heard him talk about.
Floyd | There is another thing called GoodCat/BadCat. It must have another
Floyd | name as well, because it was here when you got here, but it is far
Floyd | away and when He talks to it, you can only hear GoodCat or BadCat. You
Floyd | must be related, because you both are called Cat.
Floyd |
Floyd | You have always wondered where He goes when He closes the mow and what
Floyd | lies beyond it. "Could there be even more mows and ows? Could my place
Floyd | be just one place inside a much bigger place? I want to find out.
Floyd | Maybe if I find out, I can get a name," you think.

Floyd | You look at yourself and see your black fur from head to toe. You feel
Floyd | that your tail is a little long for you, but you haven't seen many
Floyd | other cats. Maybe that is normal. You are small, but you know you will
Floyd | get bigger someday, and someday you will have a name.

Floyd | New Cat is a game of interactive fiction, where you are the new cat in
Floyd | the household. Explore your world by using relative directions
Floyd | (forward, back, left, and right). Use jump to to jump to things higher
Floyd | or lower than you are. Make sure that the game window is wide enough
Floyd | to display Score and Turns on the right side. For more information

Floyd |
Floyd | Your Place
Floyd | Your Place surrounds the soft place. It's much bigger and it is soft
Floyd | on your feet, but not as soft as the soft place. You can run around
Floyd | here but the three ows stop you. Nothing has changed from this morning
Floyd | when He left -- the food dish, the water bowl, the sandbox, and the
Floyd | ledge are in their same places and they smell the same. The most
Floyd | interesting thing, though, is the mow. It's wide open in front of you
Floyd | and smells from outside are rushing in.
Floyd |

Floyd |
Floyd | New Hall
Floyd | This is a strange place. It's long, like maybe if your place were
Floyd | stretched out to your right and to your left taller than He is. The
Floyd | scents that invaded your place came from here, or at least some of
Floyd | them did. The ows are dabbed with white that doesn't go with the rest
Floyd | of the ow and they smell new somehow. The floor is soft like it is in
Floyd | your place but it smells wild -- images sweep over you of Him, others
Floyd | like Him, a world filled with flying things and grass, clean scents
Floyd | and many others that you've never smelled before. Faintly, you also
Floyd | detect a sweet yet salty wild smell that can only be Goodcat/Badcat.

Floyd | you back to your place.

Floyd |
Floyd | Midway Hall
Floyd | You are halfway down the hall, up to a good speed when you see
Floyd | something that compels you to stop and look. Here two mows face each
Floyd | other -- one that is not completely solid and one that doesn't reach
Floyd | the floor. The non-solid mow has slats from the top to the bottom,
Floyd | like what is on the window in your place. It has a wonderful fresh
Floyd | smell that makes you want to lie down and go to sleep, if only there
Floyd | were something soft enough to sleep on.  Mmrrow. You can't help
Floyd | yourself and rub lazily against it. It feels good. The solid mow on
Floyd | the opposite side greets you with a welcoming and familiar scent from
Floyd | between it and the floor. You would know it anywhere -- it is Him. He
Floyd | is not here, but beyond is surely His lair.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | What do you want to push: the solid mow or the slatted mow?
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | It's much too large and heavy for you to move it.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | It is a mow, but you're not sure how He moves it, because there is no
Floyd | blob of metal halfway up. It's not solid, like other mows are, and you
Floyd | can see fluffy colored things beyond; an almost-dizzying sleepy fresh
Floyd | smell comes from beyond it.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | The sleepy fresh smell comes from beyond the mow. It's so good that it
Floyd | almost makes you dizzy.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can go behind you back to New Hall and in front of you to the end
Floyd | of the hall.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You are up to a good speed before you notice the ow coming at you. You
Floyd | come to a butt-burning halt. Youch!
Floyd |
Floyd | End Hall
Floyd | The long room ends here at an ow with one room on either side. The one
Floyd | to your right has sun filtering in through slats that make you want to
Floyd | rest in its warm spaces and play with the shadows. The room to your
Floyd | left is dark and presents several different smells relating to water.
Floyd | The ows seem really tall here and you feel fenced in and nervous.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Sun Room
Floyd | The air is warm here, and light spills in across the room from the
Floyd | window on the far side of the room. Shadows and light play across the
Floyd | floor in hypnotizing patterns, threatening to lull you to sleep.
Floyd | Scattered across the room are brown boxes, arranged in no particular
Floyd | order, some of which are very tall. You get the feeling that the boxes
Floyd | were just moved here and that the room wasn't built too long ago: the
Floyd | whole place smells new.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a short box, a tall box and a towering box here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | This is shortest box. It is held closed by a brown stripe, and you can
Floyd | easily jump up to it from the floor.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You leap up to the box and then look around, surveying your new

Floyd | You can go in front of you or out to leave the room.

Floyd | You try that but find out that it is a most perverse thing. When you

Floyd | water. The ows seem really tall here and you feel fenced in and

Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Bathroom
Floyd | This room is darker than the others, and a whole plethora of scents
Floyd | rush out to find you. You take a moment perched on the threshold to
Floyd | decipher what they all mean. The first smell smells like He does
Floyd | sometimes -- like growing things, like the outside. It's too strong
Floyd | for you and it causes your nose to wrinkle involuntarily. The next
Floyd | strongest smell is a fresh, clean smell that must be some kind of
Floyd | water. You know by the third smell that this is His place, because He
Floyd | has marked it. Mixed in with that territorial odor are lesser notes
Floyd | that smell like all sorts of yummy things. You're so glad he marked
Floyd | the area so you'd know where they are! It's odd, though. You look
Floyd | around but don't see a litterbox anywhere.
Floyd |
Floyd | Instead, off to the right you see what looks like a very long water
Floyd | bowl. It has sides so you can jump up on it and take look inside. It
Floyd | smells like that water smell. Opposite it is a fat water bowl, where
Floyd | the territorial smell and the yummy smells come from. You could jump
Floyd | up on it, too. Right beside you are wooden boxes, and on top of them
Floyd | is a tall dark window.
Floyd |
Floyd |  Wait! There's something in the window. Your hackles rise and your fur
Floyd | poofs out. It's another cat, the same size as you!
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You let out a bloodcurdling meow of warning, but she doesn't respond.
Floyd | Her mouth moves, but no sound comes out.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You're too far away to do much of anything.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can go behind you or out to leave the room.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You jump a foot into the air just for fun.
Floyd |

Floyd | Bathroom
Floyd | The hallway light provides the only light in this dark room. Your eyes
Floyd | adjust and your nose comes alive with the many different scents
Floyd | inside. The first smell smells like He does sometimes -- like growing
Floyd | things, like the outside. It's too strong for you and it causes your
Floyd | nose to wrinkle involuntarily. The next strongest smell is a fresh,
Floyd | clean smell that must be some kind of water. You know by the third

Floyd |
Floyd |  The other cat mimics your motions, her eyes fixed on you. You'll have
Floyd | to respond to her challenge somehow.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | (the toilet)
Floyd | With feline agility, you leap up to the deep water bowl.
Floyd |
Floyd | Toilet Rim
Floyd | You are halfway between the dark window and the floor, perched on the
Floyd | fat water bowl. It's not soft, but it is fairly slick. The wonderful
Floyd | smells rise up from the hollow center, down in the water. You see
Floyd | above you a wide ledge that runs underneath the window. You could
Floyd | easily jump to it, or jump down to the bathroom floor.
Floyd |
Floyd | The house settles and creaks, giving you a start.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | With amazing grace, you land on the space above the handles with a
Floyd | solid "whump".
Floyd |
Floyd | Bathroom Counter
Floyd | You barely notice the rest of the surface except for the sink, which
Floyd | smells like his breath and some sort of plant. The dark window takes
Floyd | up the entire wall and inside there is another cat! Her fur is poofed
Floyd | out just like yours and her green eyes stare back at you in challenge.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can't quite reach her. She seems to be on the other side of the
Floyd | window. She can't quite reach you, either.
Floyd |
Floyd | The house settles and creaks, giving you a start.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear a faint ring coming from somewhere from somewhere far away.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You warn her off, but she doesn't reply. She must be unable to speak.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear a faint ring coming from elsewhere.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You try, but nothing interesting happens.

Floyd | You don't know how to do that.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear a faint ring coming from elsewhere.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You lean your nose in to smell her and she does the exact same thing.
Floyd | Then you realize what seemed so strange about all of this: you never
Floyd | once smelled her. How can she have no scent and no voice? What sort of
Floyd | cat is that? You realize, too, that she only does what you do. If you
Floyd | stop, she stops; if you groom yourself, she grooms herself; if you
Floyd | blink, she blinks. She does whatever you do because she is you,
Floyd | somehow. Only not you and only in the dark window. It's weird, but
Floyd | you're glad you're not a human and have to deal with such
Floyd | complexities.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear a faint ring coming from elsewhere.
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.

Floyd | You're a bit hesitant to jump where you can't see, so you jump up on

Floyd |
Floyd | Tub Edge
Floyd | You are perched uncomfortably on the narrow ledge around the  tub. The

Floyd | You can jump down to the bathroom floor, or you can enter the tub.

Floyd | Inside Tub
Floyd | You walk around inside the tub and notice, strangely, that this place
Floyd | smells like His paws. Does He stand up in it? It looks long enough for
Floyd | him to lie down in it. The water smell saturates the area, and you
Floyd | know that this place must usually be wet. Right now it is only damp.
Floyd | He calls this place "tub".

Floyd | (the toilet)
Floyd | With feline agility, you leap up to the deep water bowl.
Floyd |
Floyd | Toilet Rim
Floyd | You are halfway between the dark window and the floor, perched on the
Floyd | fat water bowl. It's not soft, but it is fairly slick. The wonderful
Floyd | smells rise up from the hollow center, down in the water. You see
Floyd | above you a wide ledge that runs underneath the window. You could
Floyd | easily jump to it, or jump down to the bathroom floor.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You're not thirsty, but you can't pass this opportunity up -- the
Floyd | smells are too interesting. Carefully you lower yourself into the
Floyd | toilet and take ten deep laps of the water. Then you pull yourself
Floyd | back up on the rim and luxuriate in the taste of tea, yogurt, and
Floyd | submarine sandwiches. You're thankful again that He was so kind to
Floyd | mark the area so that you'd know to find it.
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You jump down to the tiled floor below with matchless ease.
Floyd |
Floyd | Bathroom
Floyd | The hallway light provides the only light in this dark room. Your eyes
Floyd | adjust and your nose comes alive with the many different scents
Floyd | inside. The first smell smells like He does sometimes -- like growing
Floyd | things, like the outside. It's too strong for you and it causes your
Floyd | nose to wrinkle involuntarily. The next strongest smell is a fresh,
Floyd | clean smell that must be some kind of water. You know by the third
Floyd | smell that this is His place, because He has marked it. Mixed in with
Floyd | that territorial odor are lesser notes that smell like all sorts of
Floyd | yummy things. You're so glad he marked the area so you'd know where
Floyd | they are! It's odd, though. You look around but don't see a litterbox
Floyd | anywhere.

Floyd | Instead, off to the right you see the tub. It has sides so you can

Floyd | Midway Hall
Floyd | Halfway down the hall, the non-solid mow has slats from the top to the

Floyd | there were something soft enough to sleep on.  The solid mow on the

Floyd | between it and the floor. You would know it anywhere -- it is Him. He

Floyd |
Floyd | New Hall
Floyd | This is a strange place. It's long, like maybe if your place were

Floyd | them did. The ows are dabbed with white that doesn't go with the rest

Floyd | Scattered across the room are brown boxes, arranged in no particular

Floyd |
Floyd | Gated Hall
Floyd | The hall from behind you ends here at a soft ow about half as tall as
Floyd | an ordinary ow. This ow is made of crossed strings and you can see
Floyd | through it; beyond are shiny tall metal boxes, almost taller than Him,
Floyd | on a shiny floor. You instinctively sniff the ow. Goodcat/Badcat has
Floyd | left a scent message that welcomes you to his world if you can get
Floyd | over the ow. He calls it something rather impolite.
Floyd |
Floyd | The tall stringy gate bars progress in front of you.
Floyd |

Floyd | It is a tall stringy ow. Through it, you can see the shiny place

Floyd | You bound to the gate, spring upwards, and latch your claws into the

Floyd | the top of the gate and leap gracefully down. You turn and look behind
Floyd | you, your tail crooked, feeling proud of yourself.
Floyd |
Floyd | Edge of Kitchen
Floyd | Just to your right, the shiny and slippery floor begins and the large
Floyd | shiny things sit. The opposite way, you see softer but equally large
Floyd | things, but also a plant that sits in what looks like a square water
Floyd | bowl. The carpet is soft and it leads in front of you, but behind you
Floyd | is the stringy ow that you'll have to climb to get over.

Floyd | It is a light brownish color. You smell around and take several
Floyd | minutes to soak up the knowledge of who ate what, where they were
Floyd | going, and how they were feeling. The knowledge makes you feel quite
Floyd | important, as if you had discovered the key to understanding what
Floyd | happens around here.
Floyd |
Floyd | The house settles and creaks, giving you a start.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can go to your right, to your left, in front of you, or climb the
Floyd | gate to go behind you.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Kitchen
Floyd | Here enormous metal boxes reach upward from a shiny floor that you can
Floyd | skid across if you run fast enough and suddenly stop. The tallest box
Floyd | is cold, vibrates, and smells like food! The shorter boxes also smell
Floyd | like food, but not as strongly. The whole area smells like trees -- a
Floyd | fresh, outdoors kind of scent, which doesn't make sense, because this
Floyd | is indoors. Goodcat/Badcat is in this room; his scent is strong. You
Floyd | whip your head around but don't see him anywhere. Is he waiting to
Floyd | pounce you? You continue looking around carefully.
Floyd |
Floyd | Halfway to the ceiling (it seems) a shiny surface ledge runs like a
Floyd | pathway, over a shorter box and connects to the tallest one. It's
Floyd | wider than the ledge in your place. In the middle of the floor is a
Floyd | large brown circle held up by four legs. Underneath it are two smaller
Floyd | versions, with one pulled away from the other. You wind your way
Floyd | around these things and quickly smell what their names are. The large
Floyd | thing is called a table. The smaller things are called chairs (one is
Floyd | His and the other is guest). The names seem strong, but dull. You hope
Floyd | He doesn't name you any of those names.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of a cat scratching itself and know that it must be
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | That's too far away. You ponder jumping to something closer instead.

Floyd | You easily jump up on the table, your claws clutching the threaded
Floyd | surface.
Floyd |
Floyd | Brown Table
Floyd | This is a small place, a little bit larger than the soft place but not
Floyd | as large as the place around it. If you ran around here, you'd
Floyd | definitely fall off the edges. The floor feels like a bunch of string,
Floyd | tightly wound together and it is arranged in colors and in patterns of
Floyd | things you don't recognize. From here, you can see a shiny surface you
Floyd | could easily jump to, and you can view most of the room and the next
Floyd | room over, which pulls your kittenish heart with what looks like large
Floyd | and soft beds. Taking a quick sniff, you realize that this area is
Floyd | used for eating food, but there is no food here now. You also realize
Floyd | the names of the two objects on the table, and your interest is
Floyd | piqued.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a phone and a remote here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | A curvy thing on a square thing that He uses for talking to people
Floyd | when they are not here. You're not sure how that works, but you know
Floyd | by sniffing it that that's what He does. Goodcat/Badcat says that it
Floyd | can be annoyingly loud.
Floyd | >

Floyd | A black bar about half as long as you are, filled with a lot of
Floyd | buttons. It's obviously made for hands like His as the buttons are too
Floyd | small for you to push individually.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | Nothing obvious happens.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.

Floyd | >

Floyd | Dropped.

Floyd | Brr! It's cold, but it smells like all kinds of yummy things. He calls
Floyd | this "fridge". Goodcat/Badcat agrees with your assessment, so you
Floyd | naturally rub against it to add your opinion officially to his.
Floyd |
Floyd | The phone right next to you suddenly starts Ringing VeRy LOUDLY. You
Floyd | almost involuntarily leap off the table in surprise.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You brush your whiskers by it, but nothing amazing happens.
Floyd |
Floyd | The phone rings right beside you. It's loud!
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You attack the phone, trying to Make The Ringing Stop. You smack the
Floyd | curvy part with your paw and send it flying. The ringing stops! But
Floyd | then you hear a concerned female voice talking out of it. It's saying
Floyd | some kind of greeting.
Floyd |
Floyd | A concerned female voice speaks from the phone right beside you.
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You say "Meowr?" to let the voice know that you are here and want to
Floyd | know what's going on. The voice asks you a question that you don't
Floyd | understand, laughs, and then says some other things, and finally it
Floyd | says "goodbye". You know then it will go away and it does.
Floyd |
Floyd | An artificial voice from the phone repeats itself with strange quiet
Floyd | parts between.
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You jump on it for a moment, but quickly tire of the one-sided play.

Floyd | His chair is nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of a cat scratching itself and know that it must be
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |
Floyd | A horrible grating sound comes from the phone on the table!
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You claw at what seems to be the weakest point of the cold box, but
Floyd | you can't get it open.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of grooming coming from somewhere nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | A horrible grating sound comes from the phone on the table!
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | One of them smells more like water than food, and the other smells
Floyd | like fire and food.
Floyd |  Both of them have parts that stick out that look like you could walk
Floyd | on them, but they are too narrow.
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat indicates that these are interesting only when open,
Floyd | but the hot-smelling one hurts.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of grooming coming from somewhere nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | A horrible grating sound comes from the phone on the table!
Floyd |

Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a remote and a phone here.
Floyd |

Floyd | That doesn't look far away. You take a quick look and with a little
Floyd | jump you land safely on the countertop.
Floyd |
Floyd | Countertop
Floyd | From up here, you can see the entire shiny place.  It makes you feel
Floyd | powerful and important, like perhaps you controlled the whole area and
Floyd | had a few cat soldiers to do your bidding as well. If it was softer
Floyd | and not so narrow, it would make a great bed. From here, you can jump
Floyd | up to the metal box. The most distinctive smell is the scent of
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat. He is near.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | What do you want to examine: Ftop or the fridge?
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You see nothing special about Ftop.

Floyd | You leap up to the top with the greatest of ease.
Floyd |
Floyd | Refrigerator Top
Floyd | On top of this cold metal cube, you find what you've been expecting
Floyd | the whole time: Goodcat/Badcat. He is a refined grey cat with black
Floyd | stripes who sits with his body perpendicular to yours, his head facing
Floyd | you. He has two large yellow eyes and seems unaffected by your
Floyd | arrival, as though he had been expecting you.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see Goodcat/Badcat here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You look at him and you feel his eyes staring a hole through yours. He
Floyd | seems angry; you feel decidedly nervous.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You only do that when you are talking to Him. That's the fun part.
Floyd | When He gets back, you let out all the purrs you have saved up the
Floyd | whole day.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You approach him but at the last moment, back off. His fierce stare
Floyd | seems to shout, "How dare you approach when we have not properly
Floyd | greeted one another yet!"
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You're not sure how you talk with another cat, after all, your only
Floyd | memories are hazy and indistinct ones of your littermates and mom. So
Floyd | you try talking to Goodcat/Badcat like you were talking to Him. You
Floyd | let out a curious "Meowr". His eyes fix upon you.

Floyd | Refrigerator Top
Floyd | You are on top of the cold metal cube, better known as "refrigerator"
Floyd | and "Goodcat/Badcat's lair". Strangely, it is not cold here, but
Floyd | fairly cozy with the faint smell of food. You can see why he chose
Floyd | this location for a lair. You think you'd probably have done the same.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see Goodcat/Badcat here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You look at him and you feel his eyes staring a hole through yours. He
Floyd | seems angry; you feel decidedly nervous.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.

Floyd | You feel clean and smell like yourself. You don't see the need to
Floyd | groom yourself right now.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | Looking back on it, you realize that this was one of those things that
Floyd | would have never worked out. You pounced him and he responded with a
Floyd | bloodcurdling hiss and a swift paw that sent you flying right off the
Floyd | vibrating metal box. You landed on the ledge below and backed away
Floyd | just in time to avoid him jumping on you. Fear and adrenaline ran
Floyd | through your veins and you jumped, jumped, and ran like your tail was
Floyd | on fire. Now you're on the other side of that stringy ow, catching
Floyd | your breath, the image of him turning away with a refined departing
Floyd | spit echoing in your ears. His departing words were, "And don't come
Floyd | back!"
Floyd |
Floyd | Gated Hall
Floyd | The hall from  ends here at a soft ow about half as tall as an
Floyd | ordinary ow. This ow is made of crossed strings and you can see
Floyd | through it; beyond are shiny tall metal boxes, almost taller than Him,
Floyd | on a shiny floor. You instinctively sniff the ow. Goodcat/Badcat has
Floyd | left a scent message that welcomes you to his world if you can get
Floyd | over the ow. He calls it something rather impolite.

Floyd | He good-naturedly pushes you away with his paws and resumes his usual
Floyd | placid, royal mien.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You brush your whiskers by it, but nothing amazing happens.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You lean down the side and take a half-jump the rest of the way down.
Floyd |
Floyd | Countertop
Floyd | From up here, you can see the entire shiny place. Only the
Floyd | refrigerator top gives a better view. It makes you feel powerful and
Floyd | important, like perhaps you controlled the whole area and had a few
Floyd | cat soldiers to do your bidding as well. If it was softer and not so
Floyd | narrow, it would make a great bed. From here, you can jump up to the
Floyd | metal box. The most distinctive smell is the scent of Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd | He is near.
Floyd |

Floyd | You look down hesitantly at the floor. That's too far away!

Floyd | You span the distance with a soft jump and skid to a stop on the
Floyd | table.
Floyd |
Floyd | Brown Table
Floyd | This is a small place, a little bit larger than the soft place but not
Floyd | as large as the place around it. If you ran around here, you'd
Floyd | definitely fall off the edges. The floor feels like a bunch of string,
Floyd | tightly wound together and it is arranged in colors and in patterns of
Floyd | things you don't recognize. From here, you can see a shiny surface you
Floyd | could easily jump to, and you can view most of the room and the next
Floyd | room over, which pulls your kittenish heart with what looks like large
Floyd | and soft beds. Taking a quick sniff, you realize that this area is
Floyd | used for eating food, but there is no food here now.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a remote and a phone here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | After a few moments of weightless falling and the rude impact, you are
Floyd | once again walking around on the shiny floor.
Floyd |
Floyd | Kitchen
Floyd | Here enormous metal boxes reach upward from a shiny floor that you can
Floyd | skid across if you run fast enough and suddenly stop. The tallest box
Floyd | is cold, vibrates, and smells like food! The shorter boxes also smell
Floyd | like food, but not as strongly. The whole area smells like trees -- a
Floyd | fresh, outdoors kind of scent, which doesn't make sense, because this
Floyd | is indoors.
Floyd |
Floyd | Halfway to the ceiling (it seems) a shiny surface ledge runs like a
Floyd | pathway, over a shorter box and connects to the tallest one. It's
Floyd | wider than the ledge in your place. In the middle of the floor the
Floyd | brown table towers over you. The guest chair sits underneath it, and
Floyd | His chair is nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | Although it looks like the other chair, this is the one He sits in. He
Floyd | calls it His chair. It is not under the table, which makes jumping to
Floyd | it pretty easy.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of a cat scratching itself and know that it must be
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Edge of Kitchen
Floyd | Just in front of you, the shiny and slippery floor begins and the
Floyd | large shiny things sit. The opposite way, you see softer but equally
Floyd | large things, but also a plant that sits in what looks like a square
Floyd | water bowl. The carpet is soft and it leads to your left, but to your
Floyd | right is the stringy ow that you'll have to climb to get over.
Floyd |
Floyd | The tall stringy gate bars progress to your right.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can go in front of you, behind you, to your left, or climb the
Floyd | gate to go to your right.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You clamber over the gate again, quickly, but not silently.
Floyd |
Floyd | Gated Hall
Floyd | The hall from in front of you ends here at a soft ow about half as
Floyd | tall as an ordinary ow. This ow is made of crossed strings and you can
Floyd | see through it; beyond are shiny tall metal boxes, almost taller than
Floyd | Him, on a shiny floor. You instinctively sniff the ow. Goodcat/Badcat
Floyd | has left a scent message that welcomes you to his world if you can get
Floyd | over the ow. He calls it something rather impolite.
Floyd |
Floyd | The tall stringy gate bars progress behind you.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | New Hall
Floyd | This is a strange place. It's long, like maybe if your place were
Floyd | stretched out in front of you and behind you taller than He is. The
Floyd | scents that invaded your place came from here, or at least some of
Floyd | them did. The ows are dabbed with white that doesn't go with the rest
Floyd | of the ow and they smell new somehow. The floor is soft like it is in
Floyd | your place but it smells wild -- full of scents that draw you to
Floyd | investigate them. Faintly, you also detect a sweet yet salty wild
Floyd | smell that can only be Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Midway Hall
Floyd | Halfway down the hall, the non-solid mow has slats from the top to the
Floyd | bottom, like what is on the window in your place. It has a wonderful
Floyd | fresh smell that makes you want to lie down and go to sleep, if only
Floyd | there were something soft enough to sleep on.  The solid mow on the
Floyd | opposite side greets you with a welcoming and familiar scent from
Floyd | between it and the floor. You would know it anywhere -- it is Him. He
Floyd | is not here, but beyond is surely His lair.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | It's a large mow (like they all are) with a metal handle about
Floyd | half-way up. It doesn't reach the floor, and  underneath it is a white
Floyd | thing. Beyond it is his lair.

Floyd |
Floyd | End Hall
Floyd | The long room ends here at an ow with one room on either side. The one
Floyd | to your right has sun filtering in through slats that make you want to
Floyd | rest in its warm spaces and play with the shadows. The room to your
Floyd | left is dark and presents several different smells relating to water.
Floyd | The ows seem really tall here and you feel fenced in and nervous.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Sun Room
Floyd | The air is warm here, and light spills in across the room from the
Floyd | window on the far side of the room. Shadows and light play across the
Floyd | floor in hypnotizing patterns, threatening to lull you to sleep.
Floyd | Scattered across the room are brown boxes, arranged in no particular
Floyd | order, some of which are very tall. You get the feeling that the boxes
Floyd | were just moved here and that the room wasn't built too long ago: the
Floyd | whole place smells new.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a short box, a tall box and a towering box here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You leap up to the box and then look around, surveying your new
Floyd | surroundings.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You lie down and curl yourself into a little ball. You squinch your
Floyd | eyelids shut and feel your limbs go slack. As the haze of sleep comes
Floyd | over you, before you know it, you are somewhere else entirely.
Floyd |
Floyd | Palace (in a catnap) (on the golden oval)
Floyd | Here, the sun shines in from above to form a golden oval in the center
Floyd | of a stone dais. Around you are furry and soft places, but none as
Floyd | soft as the golden oval, which is why you're relaxing upon it. On one
Floyd | side is a milkfall where milk falls down over squares and all you have
Floyd | to do is turn your head to one side to drink. On the other side is a
Floyd | waterfall of clear and cool water. As you wait, smaller cats wearing
Floyd | bells and silly red-and-green clothes over their fur nose delicate
Floyd | trays up to you to eat, should you care to. It is early morning in
Floyd | this wonderful palace, where you are the Queen.
Floyd |
Floyd | On the delicate trays are choice meats.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You incline your head ever-so-slightly and take a refreshing drink,
Floyd | making sure to lick your mouth daintily afterwards.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | As you're not particularly hungry, you nibble several different
Floyd | offerings distractedly, enjoying the various tastes and textures.
Floyd |
Floyd | With a sudden "bang" the dream world disappears and your eyes flit
Floyd | open. You hear His voice, talking to Goodcat/Badcat. You stretch and
Floyd | lazily mewl to let him know you are here.
Floyd |
Floyd | He discovers you and then picks you up. He is surprised, and then
Floyd | kind. He pets you over and over again, chuckling at some of the things
Floyd | you have done. "I suppose I will have to name you now," he says. He
Floyd | holds you high in the air and then triumphantly christens you, "Merry.
Floyd | Yes, that's the perfect name for you." You nuzzle your face into his
Floyd | arms, turning the name around and around in your mind. Merry. It's a
Floyd | good name, well, as good as humans get at these things, you think. You
Floyd | beam up at Him as He carries you.

Floyd | Soft Place
Floyd | You live in a nice soft place inside a bigger space that has three
Floyd | ows, and one moveable ow. You call these things ows because they hurt
Floyd | when you run into them, and the moving ow (mow) only He can move. The
Floyd | soft place is where you sleep and it smells like you. Outside the soft
Floyd | space is where He puts the food and water. The food is ok, but the
Floyd | milk you used to have was much better. You wonder if He could get some
Floyd | of that again.
Floyd |
Floyd | He always shuts the mow, but today he has left it open. You do not
Floyd | know what is beyond it, except what you have heard him talk about.
Floyd | There is another thing called GoodCat/BadCat. It must have another
Floyd | name as well, because it was here when you got here, but it is far
Floyd | away and when He talks to it, you can only hear GoodCat or BadCat. You
Floyd | must be related, because you both are called Cat.
Floyd |
Floyd | You have always wondered where He goes when He closes the mow and what
Floyd | lies beyond it. "Could there be even more mows and ows? Could my place
Floyd | be just one place inside a much bigger place? I want to find out.
Floyd | Maybe if I find out, I can get a name," you think.

Floyd | Your Place
Floyd | Your Place surrounds the soft place. It's much bigger and it is soft
Floyd | on your feet, but not as soft as the soft place. You can run around
Floyd | here but the three ows stop you. Nothing has changed from this morning
Floyd | when He left -- the food dish, the water bowl, the sandbox, and the
Floyd | ledge are in their same places and they smell the same. The most
Floyd | interesting thing, though, is the mow. It's wide open in front of you
Floyd | and smells from outside are rushing in.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | It looks like a lot of little claws, but it is softer and tastes
Floyd | salty. You're not hungry, though, because you've already eaten.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | It's a tough box filled with sand that's just right for taking care of
Floyd | wastes.

Floyd | and many others that you've never smelled before. Faintly, you also
Floyd | detect a sweet yet salty wild smell that can only be Goodcat/Badcat.

Floyd | Midway Hall
Floyd | You are halfway down the hall, up to a good speed when you see
Floyd | something that compels you to stop and look. Here two mows face each
Floyd | other -- one that is not completely solid and one that doesn't reach
Floyd | the floor. The non-solid mow has slats from the top to the bottom,
Floyd | like what is on the window in your place. It has a wonderful fresh
Floyd | smell that makes you want to lie down and go to sleep, if only there
Floyd | were something soft enough to sleep on.  Mmrrow. You can't help
Floyd | yourself and rub lazily against it. It feels good. The solid mow on
Floyd | the opposite side greets you with a welcoming and familiar scent from
Floyd | between it and the floor. You would know it anywhere -- it is Him. He
Floyd | is not here, but beyond is surely His lair.

Floyd | You reach out for it and snag it in your claws; surprised, you pull

Floyd | know that He put this on his paw two suns ago, had circular meat-bread
Floyd | for dinner, and generally felt happy. You remember that day. The
Floyd | covering itself is soft and yet stretchy. He calls this "sock". You
Floyd | look at it curiously, trying to understand why He needs a covering for
Floyd | his paws.
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.

Floyd | see through it; beyond are shiny tall metal boxes, almost taller than
Floyd | Him, on a shiny floor. You instinctively sniff the ow. Goodcat/Badcat
Floyd | has left a scent message that welcomes you to his world if you can get
Floyd | over the ow. He calls it something rather impolite.

Floyd |
Floyd | New Hall
Floyd | This is a strange place. It's long, like maybe if your place were
Floyd | stretched out in front of you and behind you taller than He is. The
Floyd | scents that invaded your place came from here, or at least some of
Floyd | them did. The ows are dabbed with white that doesn't go with the rest
Floyd | of the ow and they smell new somehow. The floor is soft like it is in
Floyd | your place but it smells wild -- full of scents that draw you to
Floyd | investigate them. Faintly, you also detect a sweet yet salty wild
Floyd | smell that can only be Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |

Floyd |
Floyd | Midway Hall
Floyd | Halfway down the hall, the non-solid mow has slats from the top to the
Floyd | bottom, like what is on the window in your place. It has a wonderful
Floyd | fresh smell that makes you want to lie down and go to sleep, if only
Floyd | there were something soft enough to sleep on.  The solid mow on the
Floyd | opposite side greets you with a welcoming and familiar scent from
Floyd | between it and the floor. You would know it anywhere -- it is Him. He
Floyd | is not here, but beyond is surely His lair.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a sock here.

Floyd | You clamber over the gate again, quickly, but unfortunately not
Floyd | silently.
Floyd |
Floyd | Edge of Kitchen
Floyd | Just to your right, the shiny and slippery floor begins and the large
Floyd | shiny things sit. The opposite way, you see softer but equally large
Floyd | things, but also a plant that sits in what looks like a square water
Floyd | bowl. The carpet is soft and it leads in front of you, but behind you
Floyd | is the stringy ow that you'll have to climb to get over.
Floyd |
Floyd | The tall stringy gate bars progress behind you.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Kitchen
Floyd | Here enormous metal boxes reach upward from a shiny floor that you can
Floyd | skid across if you run fast enough and suddenly stop. The tallest box
Floyd | is cold, vibrates, and smells like food! The shorter boxes also smell
Floyd | like food, but not as strongly. The whole area smells like trees -- a
Floyd | fresh, outdoors kind of scent, which doesn't make sense, because this
Floyd | is indoors. Goodcat/Badcat is in this room; his scent is strong. You
Floyd | whip your head around but don't see him anywhere. Is he waiting to
Floyd | pounce you? You continue looking around carefully.
Floyd |
Floyd | Halfway to the ceiling (it seems) a shiny surface ledge runs like a
Floyd | pathway, over a shorter box and connects to the tallest one. It's
Floyd | wider than the ledge in your place. In the middle of the floor is a
Floyd | large brown circle held up by four legs. Underneath it are two smaller
Floyd | versions, with one pulled away from the other. You wind your way
Floyd | around these things and quickly smell what their names are. The large
Floyd | thing is called a table. The smaller things are called chairs (one is
Floyd | His and the other is guest). The names seem strong, but dull. You hope
Floyd | He doesn't name you any of those names.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of grooming coming from somewhere nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You must name something more substantial.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of a cat scratching itself and know that it must be
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | That's too far away. You ponder jumping to something closer instead.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | What do you want to jump on: the guest chair or His chair?
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't think you'll make it, but you go for it anyways. YOW! You

Floyd | wincing away the pain.

Floyd |
Floyd | Brown Table
Floyd | This is a small place, a little bit larger than the soft place but not
Floyd | as large as the place around it. If you ran around here, you'd
Floyd | definitely fall off the edges. The floor feels like a bunch of string,
Floyd | tightly wound together and it is arranged in colors and in patterns of
Floyd | things you don't recognize. From here, you can see a shiny surface you
Floyd | could easily jump to, and you can view most of the room and the next
Floyd | room over, which pulls your kittenish heart with what looks like large
Floyd | and soft beds. Taking a quick sniff, you realize that this area is
Floyd | used for eating food, but there is no food here now. You also realize
Floyd | the names of the two objects on the table, and your interest is
Floyd | piqued.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a phone and a remote here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | That doesn't look far away. You take a quick look and with a little
Floyd | jump you land safely on the countertop.
Floyd |
Floyd | Countertop
Floyd | From up here, you can see the entire shiny place.  It makes you feel
Floyd | powerful and important, like perhaps you controlled the whole area and
Floyd | had a few cat soldiers to do your bidding as well. If it was softer
Floyd | and not so narrow, it would make a great bed. From here, you can jump
Floyd | up to the metal box. The most distinctive smell is the scent of
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat. He is near.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | >

Floyd | You leap up to the top with the greatest of ease.
Floyd |
Floyd | Refrigerator Top
Floyd | On top of this cold metal cube, you find what you've been expecting
Floyd | the whole time: Goodcat/Badcat. He is a refined grey cat with black
Floyd | stripes who sits with his body perpendicular to yours, his head facing
Floyd | you. He has two large yellow eyes and seems unaffected by your
Floyd | arrival, as though he had been expecting you.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see Goodcat/Badcat here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat sniffs the air and then sniffs the sock, taking his
Floyd | time to inhale all of its scents. He looks thoughtful for a moment and
Floyd | then rubs you, pressing into your fur one of his secrets. Fascinated,
Floyd | you ponder all the fun you'll have when you chew off a piece of
Floyd | meat-bread and leave it behind the vibrating box for twenty suns so
Floyd | that you too can have a smelly play toy!
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You approach him but at the last moment, back off. His fierce stare
Floyd | seems to shout, "How dare you approach when we have not properly
Floyd | greeted one another yet!"

Floyd |
Floyd | Bathroom
Floyd | This room is darker than the others, and a whole plethora of scents
Floyd | rush out to find you. You take a moment perched on the threshold to
Floyd | decipher what they all mean. The first smell smells like He does
Floyd | sometimes -- like growing things, like the outside. It's too strong
Floyd | for you and it causes your nose to wrinkle involuntarily. The next
Floyd | strongest smell is a fresh, clean smell that must be some kind of
Floyd | water. You know by the third smell that this is His place, because He
Floyd | has marked it. Mixed in with that territorial odor are lesser notes
Floyd | that smell like all sorts of yummy things. You're so glad he marked
Floyd | the area so you'd know where they are! It's odd, though. You look
Floyd | around but don't see a litterbox anywhere.
Floyd |
Floyd | Instead, off to the right you see what looks like a very long water
Floyd | bowl. It has sides so you can jump up on it and take look inside. It
Floyd | smells like that water smell. Opposite it is a giant white chair that
Floyd | is hollow in the middle, where the territorial smell and the yummy
Floyd | smells come from. You could jump up on it, too. Right beside you are
Floyd | wooden boxes, and on top of them is a tall dark window.

Floyd | You're not thirsty, but you can't pass this opportunity up -- the

Floyd | submarine sandwiches. You're thankful again that He was so kind to
Floyd | mark the area so that you'd know to find it.

Floyd | You lean your nose in to smell her and she does the exact same thing.
Floyd | Then you realize what seemed so strange about all of this: you never
Floyd | once smelled her. How can she have no scent and no voice? What sort of
Floyd | cat is that? You realize, too, that she only does what you do. If you
Floyd | stop, she stops; if you groom yourself, she grooms herself; if you
Floyd | blink, she blinks. She does whatever you do because she is you,
Floyd | somehow. Only not you and only in the dark window. It's weird, but

Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.

Floyd | were just moved here and that the room wasn't built too long ago: the
Floyd | whole place smells new.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a short box, a tall box and a towering box here.

Floyd |
Floyd | End Hall
Floyd | The long room ends here at an ow with one room on either side. The one
Floyd | behind you has sun filtering in through slats that make you want to
Floyd | rest in its warm spaces and play with the shadows. The room in front
Floyd | of you is dark and presents several different smells relating to
Floyd | water. The ows seem really tall here and you feel fenced in and
Floyd | nervous.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can go to your left down the hall, in front of you to the dark
Floyd | room, or behind you to the sunny room.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You turn to face to your left and bound away.
Floyd |
Floyd | Midway Hall
Floyd | Halfway down the hall, the non-solid mow has slats from the top to the
Floyd | bottom, like what is on the window in your place. It has a wonderful
Floyd | fresh smell that makes you want to lie down and go to sleep, if only
Floyd | there were something soft enough to sleep on.  The solid mow on the
Floyd | opposite side greets you with a welcoming and familiar scent from
Floyd | between it and the floor. You would know it anywhere -- it is Him. He
Floyd | is not here, but beyond is surely His lair.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | New Hall
Floyd | This is a strange place. It's long, like maybe if your place were
Floyd | stretched out behind you and in front of you taller than He is. The
Floyd | scents that invaded your place came from here, or at least some of
Floyd | them did. The ows are dabbed with white that doesn't go with the rest
Floyd | of the ow and they smell new somehow. The floor is soft like it is in
Floyd | your place but it smells wild -- full of scents that draw you to
Floyd | investigate them. Faintly, you also detect a sweet yet salty wild
Floyd | smell that can only be Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd |
Floyd | Gated Hall
Floyd | The hall from behind you ends here at a soft ow about half as tall as
Floyd | an ordinary ow. This ow is made of crossed strings and you can see
Floyd | through it; beyond are shiny tall metal boxes, almost taller than Him,
Floyd | on a shiny floor. You instinctively sniff the ow. Goodcat/Badcat has
Floyd | left a scent message that welcomes you to his world if you can get
Floyd | over the ow. He calls it something rather impolite.
Floyd |
Floyd | The tall stringy gate bars progress in front of you.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You clamber over the gate again, quickly, but unfortunately not
Floyd | silently.
Floyd |
Floyd | Edge of Kitchen
Floyd | Just to your right, the shiny and slippery floor begins and the large
Floyd | shiny things sit. The opposite way, you see softer but equally large
Floyd | things, but also a plant that sits in what looks like a square water
Floyd | bowl. The carpet is soft and it leads in front of you, but behind you
Floyd | is the stringy ow that you'll have to climb to get over.
Floyd |
Floyd | The tall stringy gate bars progress behind you.
Floyd |

Floyd |
Floyd | Kitchen
Floyd | Here enormous metal boxes reach upward from a shiny floor that you can
Floyd | skid across if you run fast enough and suddenly stop. The tallest box
Floyd | is cold, vibrates, and smells like food! The shorter boxes also smell
Floyd | like food, but not as strongly. The whole area smells like trees -- a
Floyd | fresh, outdoors kind of scent, which doesn't make sense, because this
Floyd | is indoors.
Floyd |
Floyd | Halfway to the ceiling (it seems) a shiny surface ledge runs like a
Floyd | pathway, over a shorter box and connects to the tallest one. It's
Floyd | wider than the ledge in your place. In the middle of the floor the
Floyd | brown table towers over you. The guest chair sits underneath it, and
Floyd | His chair is nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You agilely leap upwards into the chair.
Floyd |
Floyd | You hear the sound of grooming coming from somewhere nearby.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You easily jump up on the table, your claws clutching the threaded
Floyd | surface.
Floyd |
Floyd | Brown Table
Floyd | This is a small place, a little bit larger than the soft place but not
Floyd | as large as the place around it. If you ran around here, you'd
Floyd | definitely fall off the edges. The floor feels like a bunch of string,
Floyd | tightly wound together and it is arranged in colors and in patterns of
Floyd | things you don't recognize. From here, you can see a shiny surface you
Floyd | could easily jump to, and you can view most of the room and the next
Floyd | room over, which pulls your kittenish heart with what looks like large
Floyd | and soft beds. Taking a quick sniff, you realize that this area is
Floyd | used for eating food, but there is no food here now.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see a phone and a remote here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | That doesn't look far away. You take a quick look and with a little
Floyd | jump you land safely on the countertop.
Floyd |
Floyd | Countertop
Floyd | From up here, you can see the entire shiny place. Only the
Floyd | refrigerator top gives a better view. It makes you feel powerful and
Floyd | important, like perhaps you controlled the whole area and had a few
Floyd | cat soldiers to do your bidding as well. If it was softer and not so
Floyd | narrow, it would make a great bed. From here, you can jump up to the
Floyd | metal box. The most distinctive smell is the scent of Goodcat/Badcat.
Floyd | He is near.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You leap up to the top with the greatest of ease.
Floyd |
Floyd | Refrigerator Top
Floyd | You are on top of the cold metal cube, better known as "refrigerator"
Floyd | and "Goodcat/Badcat's lair". Strangely, it is not cold here, but
Floyd | fairly cozy with the faint smell of food. You can see why he chose
Floyd | this location for a lair. You think you'd probably have done the same.
Floyd |
Floyd | You can see Goodcat/Badcat here.
Floyd |
Floyd | Goodcat/Badcat seems to be considering your actions carefully.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | He draws back and gives you a withering look as though you had the
Floyd | manners of a canine.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.
Floyd |

Floyd | You look at him and you feel his eyes staring a hole through yours. He
Floyd | seems angry; you feel decidedly nervous.
Floyd |

Floyd | You don't see any such thing here.

Floyd | (the kitchen floor)
Floyd | It's shiny and smooth, but it gives you just enough to grip on. You
Floyd | skid occasionally when you stop suddenly, but you don't glide.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | That would be less than courteous.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You can't do what He does, because your mouth is not shaped like His.

Floyd |
Floyd | The phone right next to you suddenly starts Ringing VeRy LOUDLY. You
Floyd | almost involuntarily leap off the table in surprise.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You already have the sock in your mouth!
Floyd |
Floyd | The phone rings right beside you. It's loud!
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You attack the phone, trying to Make The Ringing Stop. You smack the
Floyd | curvy part with your paw and send it flying. The ringing stops! But
Floyd | then you hear a concerned female voice talking out of it. It's saying
Floyd | some kind of greeting.
Floyd |
Floyd | A concerned female voice speaks from the phone right beside you.
Floyd |
Floyd | You feel like you have achieved something particularly kittenish.
Floyd |
Floyd | >

Floyd | You say "Meowr?" to let the voice know that you are here and want to
Floyd | know what's going on. The voice asks you a question that you don't
Floyd | understand, laughs, and then says some other things, and finally it
Floyd | says "goodbye". You know then it will go away and it does.
Floyd |
Floyd | An artificial voice from the phone repeats itself with strange quiet
Floyd | parts between.
