Almond the Cat
Meet Almond.
She like small spaces.
Spaces so small that she often gets stuck. There was even a time when she got stuck inside a cookie jar.
She stuck her head in the jar, but when she tried getting her head out, she couldn’t. She was stuck.
Almond often challenged herself to fit into small spaces. First it was a cardboard shoebox. Then it was a small dinner bowl. Then it was a vase.
She tried fitting herself into a toilet paper tube, a Christmas ornament, and a shoe.
Almond also has a tendency to get stuck inside of these objects. The cookie jar was no different.
Her owner was away for work so Almond was stuck in a cookie jar for the entire day. The first hour was rough. She meowed and meowed, but after three hours Almond learned to get used to her new identity as the cookie jar cat.
Now she has to sit at home and sleep in her new encased head until her owner comes home to remove the jar. But even after that happens, Almond will find another object to get stuck in again.
