How I met my new cat

I was 5 years old at this time when I woke up one Saturday morning.I heard meowing outside the front door.
"Daddy,Daddy!I hear a cat outside! "So,Dad opened the door and found a gray kitten sitting on our front door carpet warming itself because it was raining and the wind was blowing.I felt sad knowing that the kitten was so helpless and cold!Poor kitty!I scooped it up and examined it.
"Daddy,I think this cat wants to be a new family member in our family. We can't just leave it out here to die in the blistering ,cold wind and rain! We gotta do something to keep it from dying."
My dad and me shut the door and brought the kitten inside.I took a heater blanket from dad's room,and put the kitten under it on the couch. He was warming up a bit."Oh please daddy!Can we keep him? I can't bear to see this kitten so cold and helpless.The rain outside is so harmful to the kitten.I must keep him.Besides, how would it survive out there?" I begged and carried on till he finally said yes!
"Oh thank you,Daddy!I think I'll call him Furby!" Furby was sooo cute when he was sitting there on the warm blanket asleep! Awwwww!
I loved him so much. And that is how I met my new cat.
