Abby loved opening her family’s birthday presents. She hoped she would get a kitten this year for her birthday. She had wanted a pet cat for such a long time! Abby’s mom, dad, brother, and sister each had a present for her. First, she opened a fancy bag from her mom. Inside the bag was a pretty doll with black hair. Next, Abby unwrapped new markers from her brother. Abby’s sister gave her a new red sweater as a gift. Red was Abby’s favorite color. Finally, Abby’s dad handed her a plain cardboard box with a lid. It wasn’t wrapped and didn’t look like a present! Abby studied the box carefully before opening it. She noticed small holes poked through the cardboard sides. She heard something rustling inside! She wondered if it could be a kitten. Abby gently lifted the top off the box. Inside she discovered a ball of fuzz wrapped in a warm blanket. The gray and white ball of fuzz started to stretch. It was a tiny kitten! It was so cute! Abby felt so lucky. She had gotten what she always wanted. Abby lifted the baby cat out of the box and held her in her arms. The kitten purred and blinked her blue eyes. Abby decided to name her new pet Lucky because that is how she felt. Abby thanked her family for all her presents. She hugged her dad for making this the best birthday ever!
