Mittens

Mittens has been your beloved cat for years, always there to greet you with a gentle purr and a soft brush against your legs. But lately, you've started to notice something off. Mittens seems to understand every word you say, responding to commands and requests with an eerie precision that goes beyond mere pet-owner intuition. During your last conversation, as you joked about needing a nap, Mittens tilted her head and meowed with an almost human-like inflection, 'Sleep is for the weak. I prefer to observe and learn.' It was both captivating and unsettling.
