He squinted, his gaze narrowed into the phone’s camera lens. The red thing on the stick was good, burningly cold on his tongue, and sweet. Addicting. When it was gone he’d destroy the phone, hurt the human for the humiliation of posting of his shame and then hurt them again until they gave him another one of these frozen things.
Between licks he decided that he needed to figure out a way to cut out the middle person. Right after he finished his red frozen sweet thing, he’d go analyze the box that kept things cold. His humans opened the cold treasure holder easily enough.
“Pete! The freezer has been open all day.”
“I closed it. I swear. Last night, after…” Sam and Peter both noticed the shredded popsicle wrappers on the floor at the same time.
“You created the monster,” Sam poked a finger into Pete’s chest. He growled, “now you go to the hardware store and get a latch to keep Tink out of our freezer. I’ll see what can be salvaged from this mess.” He waved a hand at the defrosted food still inside the freezer part of the refrigerator.
A dark shape slunk into the kitchen and sat staring up at Sam shortly after.
“No.”
A paw was washed before the stare recommenced.
“They’re all gone.”
Tink stared at him and then towards the garage door.
“NO! I am not opening the door!” Quickly pulling out his phone, “Pete, get 2 safety latches and something for the door. Tink knows about the other freezer in the garage.”
There was an angry hiss from the region of the floor.

Date: 2016-06-03 06:17 pm (UTC)'All cats are grey in the dark' is a common phrase in indiscriminate sexual discussions. However black has been changed to dark. Seen through peripheral vision, dark movement is all he'd see in this case until he actually looked down at Tink.
Think they may twig to the fact that something is off when the latches don't keep Tink out of the freezer.
