time outside. Bubba was reading a book, Picky was eating lunch, Bobby and Craftycorn were painting, Hoppy and Kickin were playing a competitive game, and Catnap and Dogday sat under a tree, enjoying each other’s company. Catnap was napping and Dogday was listening to music, but was holding Catnap’s paw in case he had another nightmare. Dogday was enjoying himself when he felt Catnap’s paw vibrating. “Huh? What the…” He put his paw on Catnap’s chest and, sure enough, felt vibrations there too. “Oh, he’s just purring.” Dogday laughed. Catnap began to stir awake as his body was done with sleep. He looked over at Dogday and smiled. “Hello Sunshine.” He said. “Good day, Moonlight,” Dogday replied, his tail wagging. Catnap scooted closer to Dogday and Dogday did the same, wrapping his arm around Catnap’s torso and hugging him. “I’m glad we’re friends,” Dogday said. “Yeah, me too.” Catnap crawled onto Dogday’s lap, gently headbutting him like cats do. Dogday chuckled and began petting Catnap, to which Catnap responded with more headbutts and purring. “You’re a very friendly kitty cat, aren’t ya?” Dogday said. “Mh, yeah, I try to be.” Dogday continued petting Catnap, who plopped down into his lap and went loaf. Dogday was surprised by this but still felt comfortable. “Cozy, huh?” He asked. “Very,” Catnap responded, his tail whacking the ground and Dogday’s face. “Catnap, your tail keeps hitting my face.” Dogday giggled, pushing it away. “Consider that payback for all the times you’ve hit me with your tail.” Catnap chuckled. “I guess that’s kinda fair, but then again, I’ve never hit you in the face with my tail.” Dogday chuckled. “Yeah, that’s true.” The two of them sat there, feeling happier with each other as time went by until Catnap broke the silence. “I’m thirsty.” He said, undoing his loaf. “Why don’t we water for everyone? My house isn’t too far from here.” Dogday said. “Yeah, that works. Let’s go.” They got up and walked off toward Dogday’s house, which Bobby noticed. “Hm, I wonder what those two are doing,” Bobby said. Craftycorn looked up and saw Catnap and Dogday walking to Dogday’s house. “Um, maybe they’re getting something to eat or drink. I’m not sure,” she said. “Yeah, maybe. We’ll have to wait and see,” Bobby said. When they got to the house, Dogday excused himself to the bathroom. Catnap just sat on the couch to wait for him. “Hm, I almost forgot how comfortable Dogday’s furniture is. Especially the couch.” He said. He laid down and relaxed, making himself at home since he always tells him and the other Critters to do so whenever they come over. He felt so relaxed that his mind started to wander. Suddenly, his mind was filled with images from another lifetime. He envisioned himself as a tall, skinny monster who did horrible things to his friends, the people who cared for him and gave him the comfortable life he didn't believe he deserved. It was similar to all the nightmares he has been having recently and with time, they got worse and worse. He saw Dogday chained up, his bottom half missing, his face painted with anguish. “You traitor… How could you?” He growled. “We gave you a home. We treated you like family. But you still betrayed us… for that… that… MONSTER!!” Catnap didn't understand what was going on and started to cry. “I'm sorry, Dogday… I don't understand why this is all happening. Is it really… my fault?” His heart began beating heavily. Suddenly, a hand reached out and touched his shoulder. Startled by the sudden action, Catnap panicked and clawed at the hand. “Ow, holy-” He heard a voice speak. His heart started to steady and he began to calm down. The voice was familiar to him. He had heard that voice many times. When he heard it, a friendly orange face came to mind. The voice belonged to none other than… “Dogday!” Catnap opened his eyes and saw his canine friend, holding his bloody paw with a distressed expression. “You… you scratched me. Why did you do that?” Dogday asked, wincing. Catnap began to panic again. “I-I’m so sorry, I d-didn’t mean to.” He whimpered, fighting back tears. “What do you mean you didn’t mean to?” Dogday said, gingerly licking the blood from his paw off. “I-I-...” Before Catnap could explain, there was a knock at the door. “I’ll get it. Don’t even think about moving from that spot, mister!” Dogday growled. Catnap felt horrible. It was an accident but Dogday wouldn’t let him explain. He was scared that Dogday would hate him forever because of a simple misunderstanding. Dogday answered the door and Bobby and Craftycorn were standing there. “Hey guys, what’s- Oh my goodness!” Bobby yelped upon seeing the blood. “Oh, it’s you guys. Come on in.” Dogday said, forcing a smile. “What happened to your paw?” Craftycorn asked, covering her eyes. “Catnap scratched me,” Dogday said. “Oh dear, we need to get you fixed up at once,” Bobby immediately took Dogday aside to patch up his paw while Carftycorn sat on the couch, keeping her eyes away from the blood. “So… Can I ask why you scratched Dogday?” She asked after a while. “I didn't mean to. I was having another nightmare and when he touched me, it startled me.” Catnap whimpered. “I-I just acted on impulse. I would’ve never wanted to hurt anyone on purpose.” Craftycorn nodded. “I understand. Hopefully, he’ll understand.” Catnap sighed. “I hope so too.” A few minutes passed and Bobby and Dogday came back into the living room. “Thanks for your help, Bobby,” Dogday said. “Of course, hon. Just don't lick it anymore, okay?” Bobby said, petting Dogday’s head. “Okay, I won’t. Anyway, I’d like to speak to him in private,” Dogday said. “Of course. Oh, and don’t be too hard on him, okay?” Bobby said. Dogday nodded and the girls left. Now it was just him and Catnap, who was looking at the floor, scared of what was about to happen. Dogday sat next to Catnap and sighed. “Why did you do it?” He asked. Catnap’s chest felt heavy and he was too scared to breathe let alone speak. His mind was racing and he was unsure of what he wanted to say or do. He began to fiddle with his tail, nervous about the current situation. “Did you hear me? I asked you a question. Why did you-” “I don’t know.” Catnap blurted out. Dogday’s ears perked up. “You don’t know?” He said. Catnap sighed. “It’s not that, I… look, I’m sorry for scratching you. I honestly am. But you just surprised me and…” Catnap’s mind suddenly went blank. He didn’t know what to say next. “So your first thought was to scratch me? Because I surprised you?” Dogday said, crossing his arms. Catnap’s heart dropped. “N-no, no, no, you don’t understand, I-” “Save it. I’m very disappointed in you.” Dogday said. Catnap was getting anxious. He wanted to explain but couldn’t. “Get over my lap, mister.” Dogday growled. Catnap’s heart began pounding. “What? W-why?” He asked, his paws shaking. “Do I need to repeat myself?” Catnap stood up, feeling more scared. “I-I didn’t mean to. I-” “Catnap, you are testing my patience.” Dogday grabbed Catnap by my scruff and bent him over his lap, pinning him down with his sore paw instantly. “N-no, Dogday, please just let me explain,” Catnap whimpered. Instead, Dogday used his unscratched paw to slap Catnap’s bare bottom, causing the small cat to yelp and squeal in pain. “Ow, ow, s-stop, please.” He tried to throw his paw over his bum, but Dogday was faster and pinned his arm and his legs down to prevent any more disruptions and continued the spanking without even pausing. Catnap begged and pleaded, tears running down his face, but Dogday didn’t let up with the punishment. Catnap tried to squirm to soften the spanks, but he couldn’t move. Whatever Dogday was doing made it impossible for Catnap to move any part of his body aside from his head. He screamed in pain, begging his best friend to stop, but though he wanted to, Dogday didn’t even slow down. Every second became more and more painful as Catnap’s bum felt very hot and numb. Soon, he was a teary-eyed, red-bottomed mess. After one final slap that made Catnap hiss in response, Dogday helped him onto a seated position on his lap, and Catnap wasted no time throwing his arms around Dogday’s neck and hugging his neck, still sobbing from the pain. “Shh, shh, it’s okay, my poor sweet kitty.” Dogday said, rubbing his back. “I’m sorry I had to spank you, but it’s not okay to hurt your friends. Or anyone, for that matter.” “sniff Y-you don’t understand. I-I tried to explain, but you wouldn’t let me.” Catnap sobbed into Dogday’s shoulder. “Alright then. What did you want to explain?” Dogday asked. Catnap wiped the tears off his face. “I really didn’t mean to scratch you. You see… I-I had another nightmare and saw those horrible things again.” He explained. “I’m sorry to hear that. But that still doesn’t explain why you scratched me.” Dogday said. “Well, I was just lost in thought and thought I saw a strange hand coming towards me and… I-I panicked.” Catnap whimpered, headbutting Dogday’s chest. “Oh… wait, so you mean you were just trying to defend yourself from a threat you didn’t realize wasn’t real? And I just got caught in the crossfire?” Dogday said, starting to feel bad. Catnap nodded. “Oh no… Catnap, I am so sorry for spanking you without listening to you. I was just upset and in pain… and that led to me hurting you.” Dogday hugged Catnap tightly for a while. Catnap kept crying and his eyes wouldn’t stop tearing up. “My eyes are still wet…” He said, wiping his eyes again. “Here, let me help.” Dogday said. Catnap couldn’t even ask what Dogday was planning before he licked the feline’s face. “What the…” Dogday kept licking Catnap’s face, his tail wagging rapidly. Catnap tried to pull away, but couldn’t. He began to laugh. “Stop, Dogday. Ugh, your breath smells so weird.” He chuckled. Dogday still felt bad for spanking Catnap like he did, so he began to massage his butt as well. Catnap’s butt was still sore, but he tried to relax. Dogday kept licking the tears off Catnap’s face and rubbing his butt to help him feel better. After a while, Catnap managed to stop crying. “Feeling better?” Dogday asked, smiling warmly. “Y-yeah, I guess so.” Catnap said. “Good. Stand up and turn around.” Dogday said. “But why?” Catnap asked, feeling slightly alarmed. “Just do it.” Dogday said. Catnap was afraid of what would happen if he didn’t do as he was told, so he stood up, turned around, and held his tail away from his butt, bracing himself for another smack. But instead, Dogday just looked at it for a minute and gently patted it. “Well, I can’t see any red paw prints so no one will know about this.” He said, standing up. He hugged Catnap again and Catnap hugged him back. “We still need to get drinks for everyone, don’t we?” Catnap said. “You’re right, we do.” Dogday said. They went to the kitchen to get water for everyone. While they were filling up the cups and putting them on a tray, Dogday apologized again for spanking Catnap without listening to his explanation and Catnap apologized for scratching him. “Is your paw okay?” Catnap asked. “Yeah, it’s fine. Is your butt okay?” Dogday asked. “Not really… but I’ll survive.” Catnap said, rubbing his butt. “Geez, I didn’t know you were so strong.” He chuckled. “Heh, neither did I.” Dogday said sheepishly. They both had fun joking with each other while getting water for everyone. As soon as they filled up all of the cups, they brought the tray outside. “Hey, guys. Catnip and I got drinks for everyone.” Dogday called out. Everyone paused what they were doing and went over for the water. Hoppy and Kickin really needed it too, since they were wrestling again, so they chugged the water as fast as they could. “I win,” Kickin said, holding up his empty cup. “What? Hey, no fair. I didn’t know we were racing.” Hoppy said, playfully punching Kickin. “Hehe, you gotta stay on your feet, Hops.” he chuckled. “Settle down, you two. And don’t drink too fast.” Bubba said. Catnap and Dogday slowly drank their water, one small sip at a time, drinking it as a normal cat and dog would. After everyone was done with their water, Dogday took the tray inside while Catnap went back to the tree he and Dogday were sitting under before this whole thing happened. He was so tired that by the time Dogday returned, he had already dozed off. Dogday just sighed, sat down, and snuggled up to Catnap, which made him purr loudly as he realized Dogday was there. They were much happier now, though some of the Critters were curious as to why Dogday had a bloody bandage on his paw, but Bobby told them not to worry about it. From that day forward, Dogday made a rule that everyone deserves a chance to explain themselves before any disciplinary action can be taken. ", "writing_bbcode_parsed": "One day, the Critters were spending time outside. Bubba was reading a book, Picky was eating lunch, Bobby and Craftycorn were painting, Hoppy and Kickin were playing a competitive game, and Catnap and Dogday sat under a tree, enjoying each other’s company. Catnap was napping and Dogday was listening to music, but was holding Catnap’s paw in case he had another nightmare. Dogday was enjoying himself when he felt Catnap’s paw vibrating. “Huh? What the…” He put his paw on Catnap’s chest and, sure enough, felt vibrations there too. “Oh, he’s just purring.” Dogday laughed. Catnap began to stir awake as his body was done with sleep. He looked over at Dogday and smiled. “Hello Sunshine.” He said. “Good day, Moonlight,” Dogday replied, his tail wagging. Catnap scooted closer to Dogday and Dogday did the same, wrapping his arm around Catnap’s torso and hugging him. “I’m glad we’re friends,” Dogday said. “Yeah, me too.” Catnap crawled onto Dogday’s lap, gently headbutting him like cats do. Dogday chuckled and began petting Catnap, to which Catnap responded with more headbutts and purring. “You’re a very friendly kitty cat, aren’t ya?” Dogday said. “Mh, yeah, I try to be.” Dogday continued petting Catnap, who plopped down into his lap and went loaf. Dogday was surprised by this but still felt comfortable. “Cozy, huh?” He asked. “Very,” Catnap responded, his tail whacking the ground and Dogday’s face. “Catnap, your tail keeps hitting my face.” Dogday giggled, pushing it away. “Consider that payback for all the times you’ve hit me with your tail.” Catnap chuckled. “I guess that’s kinda fair, but then again, I’ve never hit you in the face with my tail.” Dogday chuckled. “Yeah, that’s true.” The two of them sat there, feeling happier with each other as time went by until Catnap broke the silence. “I’m thirsty.” He said, undoing his loaf. “Why don’t we water for everyone? My house isn’t too far from here.” Dogday said. “Yeah, that works. Let’s go.” They got up and walked off toward Dogday’s house, which Bobby noticed. “Hm, I wonder what those two are doing,” Bobby said. Craftycorn looked up and saw Catnap and Dogday walking to Dogday’s house. “Um, maybe they’re getting something to eat or drink. I’m not sure,” she said. “Yeah, maybe. We’ll have to wait and see,” Bobby said. When they got to the house, Dogday excused himself to the bathroom. Catnap just sat on the couch to wait for him. “Hm, I almost forgot how comfortable Dogday’s furniture is. Especially the couch.” He said. He laid down and relaxed, making himself at home since he always tells him and the other Critters to do so whenever they come over. He felt so relaxed that his mind started to wander. Suddenly, his mind was filled with images from another lifetime. He envisioned himself as a tall, skinny monster who did horrible things to his friends, the people who cared for him and gave him the comfortable life he didn't believe he deserved. It was similar to all the nightmares he has been having recently and with time, they got worse and worse. He saw Dogday chained up, his bottom half missing, his face painted with anguish. “You traitor… How could you?” He growled. “We gave you a home. We treated you like family. But you still betrayed us… for that… that… MONSTER!!” Catnap didn't understand what was going on and started to cry. “I'm sorry, Dogday… I don't understand why this is all happening. Is it really… my fault?” His heart began beating heavily. Suddenly, a hand reached out and touched his shoulder. Startled by the sudden action, Catnap panicked and clawed at the hand. “Ow, holy-” He heard a voice speak. His heart started to steady and he began to calm down. The voice was familiar to him. He had heard that voice many times. When he heard it, a friendly orange face came to mind. The voice belonged to none other than… “Dogday!” Catnap opened his eyes and saw his canine friend, holding his bloody paw with a distressed expression. “You… you scratched me. Why did you do that?” Dogday asked, wincing. Catnap began to panic again. “I-I’m so sorry, I d-didn’t mean to.” He whimpered, fighting back tears. “What do you mean you didn’t mean to?” Dogday said, gingerly licking the blood from his paw off. “I-I-...” Before Catnap could explain, there was a knock at the door. “I’ll get it. Don’t even think about moving from that spot, mister!” Dogday growled. Catnap felt horrible. It was an accident but Dogday wouldn’t let him explain. He was scared that Dogday would hate him forever because of a simple misunderstanding. Dogday answered the door and Bobby and Craftycorn were standing there. “Hey guys, what’s- Oh my goodness!” Bobby yelped upon seeing the blood. “Oh, it’s you guys. Come on in.” Dogday said, forcing a smile. “What happened to your paw?” Craftycorn asked, covering her eyes. “Catnap scratched me,” Dogday said. “Oh dear, we need to get you fixed up at once,” Bobby immediately took Dogday aside to patch up his paw while Carftycorn sat on the couch, keeping her eyes away from the blood. “So… Can I ask why you scratched Dogday?” She asked after a while. “I didn't mean to. I was having another nightmare and when he touched me, it startled me.” Catnap whimpered. “I-I just acted on impulse. I would’ve never wanted to hurt anyone on purpose.” Craftycorn nodded. “I understand. Hopefully, he’ll understand.” Catnap sighed. “I hope so too.” A few minutes passed and Bobby and Dogday came back into the living room. “Thanks for your help, Bobby,” Dogday said. “Of course, hon. Just don't lick it anymore, okay?” Bobby said, petting Dogday’s head. “Okay, I won’t. Anyway, I’d like to speak to him in private,” Dogday said. “Of course. Oh, and don’t be too hard on him, okay?” Bobby said. Dogday nodded and the girls left. Now it was just him and Catnap, who was looking at the floor, scared of what was about to happen. Dogday sat next to Catnap and sighed. “Why did you do it?” He asked. Catnap’s chest felt heavy and he was too scared to breathe let alone speak. His mind was racing and he was unsure of what he wanted to say or do. He began to fiddle with his tail, nervous about the current situation. “Did you hear me? I asked you a question. Why did you-” “I don’t know.” Catnap blurted out. Dogday’s ears perked up. “You don’t know?” He said. Catnap sighed. “It’s not that, I… look, I’m sorry for scratching you. I honestly am. But you just surprised me and…” Catnap’s mind suddenly went blank. He didn’t know what to say next. “So your first thought was to scratch me? Because I surprised you?” Dogday said, crossing his arms. Catnap’s heart dropped. “N-no, no, no, you don’t understand, I-” “Save it. I’m very disappointed in you.” Dogday said. Catnap was getting anxious. He wanted to explain but couldn’t. “Get over my lap, mister.” Dogday growled. Catnap’s heart began pounding. “What? W-why?” He asked, his paws shaking. “Do I need to repeat myself?” Catnap stood up, feeling more scared. “I-I didn’t mean to. I-” “Catnap, you are testing my patience.” Dogday grabbed Catnap by my scruff and bent him over his lap, pinning him down with his sore paw instantly. “N-no, Dogday, please just let me explain,” Catnap whimpered. Instead, Dogday used his unscratched paw to slap Catnap’s bare bottom, causing the small cat to yelp and squeal in pain. “Ow, ow, s-stop, please.” He tried to throw his paw over his bum, but Dogday was faster and pinned his arm and his legs down to prevent any more disruptions and continued the spanking without even pausing. Catnap begged and pleaded, tears running down his face, but Dogday didn’t let up with the punishment. Catnap tried to squirm to soften the spanks, but he couldn’t move. Whatever Dogday was doing made it impossible for Catnap to move any part of his body aside from his head. He screamed in pain, begging his best friend to stop, but though he wanted to, Dogday didn’t even slow down. Every second became more and more painful as Catnap’s bum felt very hot and numb. Soon, he was a teary-eyed, red-bottomed mess. After one final slap that made Catnap hiss in response, Dogday helped him onto a seated position on his lap, and Catnap wasted no time throwing his arms around Dogday’s neck and hugging his neck, still sobbing from the pain. “Shh, shh, it’s okay, my poor sweet kitty.” Dogday said, rubbing his back. “I’m sorry I had to spank you, but it’s not okay to hurt your friends. Or anyone, for that matter.” “sniff Y-you don’t understand. I-I tried to explain, but you wouldn’t let me.” Catnap sobbed into Dogday’s shoulder. “Alright then. What did you want to explain?” Dogday asked. Catnap wiped the tears off his face. “I really didn’t mean to scratch you. You see… I-I had another nightmare and saw those horrible things again.” He explained. “I’m sorry to hear that. But that still doesn’t explain why you scratched me.” Dogday said. “Well, I was just lost in thought and thought I saw a strange hand coming towards me and… I-I panicked.” Catnap whimpered, headbutting Dogday’s chest. “Oh… wait, so you mean you were just trying to defend yourself from a threat you didn’t realize wasn’t real? And I just got caught in the crossfire?” Dogday said, starting to feel bad. Catnap nodded. “Oh no… Catnap, I am so sorry for spanking you without listening to you. I was just upset and in pain… and that led to me hurting you.” Dogday hugged Catnap tightly for a while. Catnap kept crying and his eyes wouldn’t stop tearing up. “My eyes are still wet…” He said, wiping his eyes again. “Here, let me help.” Dogday said. Catnap couldn’t even ask what Dogday was planning before he licked the feline’s face. “What the…” Dogday kept licking Catnap’s face, his tail wagging rapidly. Catnap tried to pull away, but couldn’t. He began to laugh. “Stop, Dogday. Ugh, your breath smells so weird.” He chuckled. Dogday still felt bad for spanking Catnap like he did, so he began to massage his butt as well. Catnap’s butt was still sore, but he tried to relax. Dogday kept licking the tears off Catnap’s face and rubbing his butt to help him feel better. After a while, Catnap managed to stop crying. “Feeling better?” Dogday asked, smiling warmly. “Y-yeah, I guess so.” Catnap said. “Good. Stand up and turn around.” Dogday said. “But why?” Catnap asked, feeling slightly alarmed. “Just do it.” Dogday said. Catnap was afraid of what would happen if he didn’t do as he was told, so he stood up, turned around, and held his tail away from his butt, bracing himself for another smack. But instead, Dogday just looked at it for a minute and gently patted it. “Well, I can’t see any red paw prints so no one will know about this.” He said, standing up. He hugged Catnap again and Catnap hugged him back. “We still need to get drinks for everyone, don’t we?” Catnap said. “You’re right, we do.” Dogday said. They went to the kitchen to get water for everyone. While they were filling up the cups and putting them on a tray, Dogday apologized again for spanking Catnap without listening to his explanation and Catnap apologized for scratching him. “Is your paw okay?” Catnap asked. “Yeah, it’s fine. Is your butt okay?” Dogday asked. “Not really… but I’ll survive.” Catnap said, rubbing his butt. “Geez, I didn’t know you were so strong.” He chuckled. “Heh, neither did I.” Dogday said sheepishly. They both had fun joking with each other while getting water for everyone. As soon as they filled up all of the cups, they brought the tray outside. “Hey, guys. Catnip and I got drinks for everyone.” Dogday called out. Everyone paused what they were doing and went over for the water. Hoppy and Kickin really needed it too, since they were wrestling again, so they chugged the water as fast as they could. “I win,” Kickin said, holding up his empty cup. “What? Hey, no fair. I didn’t know we were racing.” Hoppy said, playfully punching Kickin. “Hehe, you gotta stay on your feet, Hops.” he chuckled. “Settle down, you two. And don’t drink too fast.” Bubba said. Catnap and Dogday slowly drank their water, one small sip at a time, drinking it as a normal cat and dog would. After everyone was done with their water, Dogday took the tray inside while Catnap went back to the tree he and Dogday were sitting under before this whole thing happened. He was so tired that by the time Dogday returned, he had already dozed off. Dogday just sighed, sat down, and snuggled up to Catnap, which made him purr loudly as he realized Dogday was there. They were much happier now, though some of the Critters were curious as to why Dogday had a bloody bandage on his paw, but Bobby told them not to worry about it. From that day forward, Dogday made a rule that everyone deserves a chance to explain themselves before any disciplinary action can be taken.
