Hi Gaby ~ Keeper Of The Realm .

I'm JACE , and I have the honor of reviewing your offering "Hello, Kitty! as part of a ten-review mini-raid. This is #2.

The views and opinions on this review are mainly the things discovered by the reader and therefore, do not reflect necessarily to the group, activity and/or event being affiliated herein. This is only the opinion and suggestions of the reviewer, and it is still up to the author of this piece to consider this review as a corrective action or otherwise.

*Note1*
Overall Impression. When I remarried ten years ago, I gained a new wife and four cats--two indoor and two outdoor. I'd never had a cat in my 60 years of life. I have to admit, they do grow on you. What personalities they have.

Great job meeting the contest prompt. I can't imagine 13 cats of any persuasion, especially kittens. I believe Ms. Foxy outdid herself.

We don't have one, but I assume a tuxedo cat is a black and white one. Regarding your title--one thing I've learned is that when addressing a cat, it's always twice. "Hello, Kitty, Kitty!" By the way, snoring and farting are definite grounds for banishment to the great outdoors.

*Writer*
Editorial Thoughts. Some of the sentences seemed disjointed when I read them. It occurs when three or more phrases are in one sentence. Try reading your story out loud and I think you hear those spots. One example:

I wished I could take her for a walk, the light breeze felt good on my skin at least, but I knew that I couldn't.

The middle phrase felt out of place. Perhaps something like this:

Returning home the light breeze felt good on my skin. I wished I could take her for a walk, but I knew I couldn't.

Very ingenious solution to the bad behavior of the kittens. I would definitely love a pet of that sort (not to give anything away). *Wink*

*Exclaim*
Technical Considerations.

         *Bullet* Delete the comma.
 evidence of rummaging, visible on my driveway.

         *Bullet* Maintain tenses. 'scooted' --> 'there was'.
 I scooted to the edge of my comforter, just in case there's some foulness involved.

         *Bullet* Again, tenses. 'realized' --> 'it was'.
 I realized that it's her litter.

         *Bullet* Another wordsmith moment.
 ... nibbled on licked the milk ...

My Rating.  4.0.

*Heart*
