Max and Velvet's Heartwarming Friendship

Every single day, Claire would take her dogs Mike, Shadow, Doodle, and Max on a walk around the block. One sunny day, Claire said, “Let’s go, pups!” The dogs jumped with joy. But there was a stray cat named Velvet who always followed them. Mike barked, “Go away, cat!” Doodle growled, but Max just wagged his tail at Velvet. He liked her!

As October rolled around, Nick joined Claire on their walk with the dogs. This time, Velvet didn’t stay back; she walked right up to Max! “Hi, Max!” she purred softly. Max excitedly licked her cheek. Claire was amazed. “Look at them, Nick! They’re becoming friends!” After a while, Claire decided to adopt Velvet, and they all snuggled together. As months passed, Max and Velvet were inseparable, playing and eating together every day.
