The Midnight Discovery

While walking my dog as dusk fell, he got stuck under a bush and refused to move. I pulled and called him, but he wouldn’t budge. Frustrated, I picked him up and carried him away, scolding his stubbornness. At the entrance, a sudden realization hit me, and I raced back to the bush. There, nestled in the undergrowth, was a tiny, shivering kitten, its eyes wide with fear. My dog had sensed it and refused to leave. Relief washed over me as I gently

scooped up the kitten, its faint mewls tugging at my heart. I brought it home, wrapped it in a warm towel, and gave it milk. My dog wagged his tail, proud of his find. That night, we gained a new family member, and I learned to trust his instincts. The kitten, now named Bush, curled up beside us, a reminder of an unexpected bond forged in the dark.
