Singing His Heart Out

Tiger was one of five kittens born on a cold, winter day. All the kittens were cute, but everyone in the family thought Tiger was the cutest! He loved to cuddle and snuggle up to everyone every time he had a chance. His favorite one to cuddle up to was his mama. She would purr and put a paw around him so she could clean his face. It felt so good! He would go right to sleep every time.

As he grew older, he played around the house more and didn't spend as much time with mama. He enjoyed cuddling with the humans, but he missed mama's purrs. They always made him feel so much better. "Oh, well", he told himself. "I'm a big boy now, so I'm going to have to forget about it." He had no idea that he was going to hear something that would make him feel just as good.

One night, he was in the living room with the family and heard something strange. The more he listened to it, the more he liked it! The humans kept calling it "music". He liked this thing called "music" so much that he crept closer to the TV. Another human, by the name of Dean Martin, was singing and laughing on an old TV show that the family hadn't seen for a long time. One tune made Tiger feel so good that he just had to sing out his own version. The family loved it!
