The cats are poor, and they can’t cook. They only buy takeaways, which makes them even more poor. The orange cat is pregnant, but her husband doesn’t have any money. He has to work to have enough money. They also grow oranges from the orange cat. The orange cat has an orange on her head so that’s why they grow oranges at their house. They eat hotpot for dinner but it was too spicy, so they only ate oranges instead of water because they are too poor to buy some water and sodas.

June
One day there was a cat sitting on the ground, holding a sign. It seemed like he was an orphan, looking for a family, so he was just sitting there and looking awkward and embarrassed. He waited there for days, until some adult looked at him……… He looked up, praying for them to adopt him. But they did not. After a few days, he changed the sign to another so he didn’t need someone to adopt him any more; he could take care of himself. He put on a fish costume, looking like the fish behind him. He became a statue, because he didn’t want to move when he was young. Kinda weird, right? His eyes became black. Every cat had seen this and it was traumatizing them so few people went to the fish museum. The museum was shut down and the cat was still there!!! Oh my gosh! What happens if he wakes up?!?
