the lost kitty

I get lucy when she was just three weeks old. I had to take care of here and feed her through a bottle for a little while.Everyday lucy would come and find me when i got home from school. Lucy liked to play with yarn, her favorite was a pink ball with green in it. i would play with her after i gave her her warmed bottle of milk. lucy would then lay up in a ball at my feet while i worked on school work. Lucy was a p[layfull cat that sometimes liked to play hide and seek, so when i couldnt find her one day i wasnt too worried. i went to my room and started my school work. When she still didnt show up i was starting to get worried and asked my mother if she had seen lucy anywere. she said that no she had not but that their was a stray cat in the house earlier and she put it in the basement so it wouldnt fight with our cat.
Later that night i went downstairs to see the stray and make sure Lucy wasnt down their. When i oppened the door a meow called to me and i looked to see a cat that was the same size as lucy only it wasnt her. I looked around but couldnt find her. i started to play with the other kitten. she pounced on the pink and green ball as soon as she saw it. It mad me sad that i couldnt find my little Lucy, and reminded me of how much she loved this ball. I looked closer at the stray and saw on her chest a little zipper and was worried. When i pulled it down i saw a diffrent color fur under the first layer. I coutinued and was shock too see that this little cat was my Lucy.
When i went to tell my mom my brother was standing their with her and was laughing as i carried my cat and the fake fur covering into the room. I knew that my brother had tricked me and vowed to get him back.
