Abigale, Rollin, Baby, & Niavy

Abigale reached the barn and let her nose be filled with the sweet scent of familiar things. Including her mate. Rollin came bounding over and nuzzled his mate, tail waving. Abigale told him about Kara, and that they were goig to meet some new friends.

A tan/orange cat was resting idly on top of a hay bale, looking casually down at the two collies. Her tail flicked slowly now and then, but she said nothing at the moment. This was Niavy.

Another cat, a youngster that wasn't quite grown up yet, came cavorting over to Abigale. She had unusually large, olive eyes on a ridiculously small, petite little face. An equally small body made up her delicate form, and large ears framed her tiny head. She seemed very unproportionate and younger than what she was. Her coat was light and soft and a shade lighter than her sister Niavy's. But making up for her awkward features was the sweetest and most gentle cat around. Purring in a high, rolling pitch, Baby rubbed and nuzzled against Abigale's legs.


Kara

Kara soon joined Abigale and the others, smiling at them all. "Hello, I'm Kara" She said with a friendly tone. She was skinny, it was obviouse she had been abused, but other than that, she was sweet and eager to make new friends.


Aidan

Aidan wasn't long behind them. He skidded to a halt and lifted his head, which stood a good bit higher than the average collie. But his glistening eyes and wagging tail showed he was more like a puppy than anything else. "Lets show her all the cats! Or the horses! Or... or the bull, or..." he let his words trail off, realizing he may be making a fool of himself.


Abigale, Rollin, Baby & Niavy

Abigale laughed again, shaking her head, "We'll get to them all, Aidan. But first things first." The she-collie turned to Kara while nodding her head towards her mate, "This is Rollin." The male collie gave a nod and 'hello'. "And this here..." her chestnut orbs flashed to the goggle-eyed kitten, "..is Baby. Perhaps the sweetest creature on earth!"

Baby looked up at Kara, purring still, "Nice to meet you! I'll have to introduce you to my sisters and brothers sometime. Most of them are out hunting and what-not right now."

Abigale nodded and looked up to the other cat on the hay bale, "That is Niavy..." the collie lowered her voice then to whisper to Kara, "She's interesting... pretty aloof and not one to be cuddly. But she knows a lot of things. If you're ever curious about something, ask her. And she'll be a friend for life if you bring her a mouse or something now and then. Would you like to meet the horses now?"


Kara

Kara giggled at Aidan's excitement and smiled at everyone, "Its's nice to meet you all." She said, looking down at Baby with another smile. She then listened carefully to Abigale, smiling when she heard about Niavy. When Abigale mentioned something about horses she looked at her questioningly, "What is a Horse?" She had never seen a horse before.


Abigale, Rollin, Baby, Nass, & Stable

Abigale looked to Kara in surprise, then smiled kindly, "They're right over here. Now they're quite large, so don't be frightened when you see them." The collie padded towards a row of stalls. Rearing up against the first stall door, she peered in. There was a chestnut stallion. "This is Nass. Nass, this is Kara."

The horse turned it's long head towards the new collie and gave a nod, "Nice to meet you, Kara." There was a winny from the stable next to Nass. A grayish muzzle protruded out with large nostrils flaring to get a scent of the visiters. "Abigale?" The voice was femine.

"And this is Stable." The she-collie announced, looking to the second stall. This mare was grayish all over with black speckles and mane.

Baby followed along, "Be careful of their hooves. They are mighty skittish creatures."


Kara

Kara fallowed them and looked up curiously at the horses, "It's nice to meet you both!" She said happily. She listened to Baby and nodded, "thanks." She whispered back.


Abigale, Rollin, & Baby

Abigale sniffed at the air, then turned to gaze to the barn entrance where John had come in. Turning back to Kara, she spoke again, "We could meet out friend Contus now, if you like."


Kara

Kara looked in the direction where Abigale and scented. Spotting John she was a bit frightened a bit, the only kind human she had met so far was Martha, and she didn't reconize this one. Backing up she looked over at Abigale, "Who is that?" She asked worriedly.
