Whiskers the cat loved to explore the backyard, especially when the sun made the leaves sparkle like tiny stars.
One afternoon, she spotted a butterfly dancing in the air and followed it all the way to the big oak tree.
Without thinking, Whiskers leaped onto the trunk and climbed higher and higher, her claws clicking on the bark.
The wind rustled the branches, and the butterfly flew away, but Whiskers kept climbing.
Suddenly, she looked down and meowed—everything seemed so far below!
Her tail twitched nervously, but then she spotted her owner waving and calling gently.
With careful steps, Whiskers climbed back down, jumping into her owner’s arms with a soft purr.
She decided trees were fun, but snuggles were even better.
