“No, Scrump, the kittens cannot play in the kitchens. The capybaras have lodged several complaints, and can you please tell Cindy I need to see her if you see her first. Two of her hares decided to jump into the void space and see if they could swim in it.” Gus shrieked in panic mode as he tossed a clipboard onto the table.


    “Could they swim?” Mother Scrump asked.


    “Yes, but that’s not the point. Ethel is going to kill us if we can’t watch the grounds on her first long trip away. So please get your kittens back to their area. I’m going to take Trashcat and track down the goat. Many Legs is trying to figure out where Captain Lightspeed somehow disappeared to.” Gus explained his panic not having lessened.

    “You lost a horse, and you are worried about the kittens!” The older cat laughed.


    “Yes, I am worried about everything. I see how this job drives people insane!” Gus grabbed two more clipboards as he ran from the room, ignoring Mother Scrump''s continued laughter.
