Paws the despicable is a tale about a cat that hatched a plan that led to the loss of his friend
“Please stay with me, Paws. I love you so much,” Jackson pleaded.
Let’s do a recap to see how we got to this point.
There was once a cat named Paws, and he was the apple of his owner’s eyes. Paws had it all; he was treated well and had a loving and caring owner called Jackson. However, as time passed, the love for his cat slowly diminished as Jackson became more and more enveloped in his work.
Paws started noticing the lack of attention and love coming from his owner, and he began brainstorming, “How can I get Mr. Jackson to love me again? Who is looking for something that cannot be found?” That was when Paws suddenly got the oddest but most brilliant idea a cat could ever cook up, and he was sure that it would work.
One early morning, he went to see his dog friend called Cupcake, a peculiar Pitbull who, contrary to others of his kind, was kind-hearted. Perhaps it was because he was owned by a woman who seemed to be an angel. She was a well-mannered and elegant woman, caring for everyone’s needs and always lending a helping hand to the needy. She was also quite wealthy, which may explain Cupcake’s kind nature. Whatever the reason, this led to a friendship between Cupcake and Paws, and Cupcake was just the dog Paws needed for his plan.
Once Paws explained what he needed Cupcake for, there was a brief session of begging before Cupcake agreed. The plan wasn’t exactly Cupcake’s cup of tea, but anything for a friend, right?
The plan was to take immediate effect the next morning, and Paws tried his best to ensure his owner stayed home that day or at least extended his stay before going to work.
That was when it happened. At seven o’clock in the morning, there was commotion heard on their compound. Jackson quickly ran out of the house to see what was happening. That’s when the Pitbull made his move and charged into the house, attacking the cat.
Paws was bitten, scratched, and even mauled, and that was when it happened. A loud burst of sound took hold of everyone’s ears, and the dog dropped like a sack of potatoes. Jackson had shot the Pitbull with his shotgun to save his cat. “Please stay with me, Paws. I love you so much,” Jackson said. Paws was then rushed to the vet.
When the Pitbull’s owner heard the news, she was devastated and in disbelief. Paws knew there was a high chance of losing his friend, but he betrayed him anyway.
In the end, Paws gained his owner’s love but got guilt that lasted a lifetime. Was it worth it?
Moral: Value your friendships. Guilt causes regret that lasts a lifetime
