The Adventures of Luna the Cat

 

Luna was a small, gray kitten with big, curious eyes. She lived in a little house at the edge of a forest with her owner, Mrs. Willow. Every morning, Luna loved to watch the birds chirp from the window. But one day, something amazing happened. Mrs. Willow left the back door open!

 

Excitedly, Luna stepped outside for the very first time. The world was bigger than she had ever imagined. There were tall trees, colorful flowers, and the sound of rushing water from a nearby stream. Luna sniffed the air and felt the soft grass under her paws. Everything felt new and magical.

 

Suddenly, Luna saw a butterfly fluttering in front of her. Without thinking, she began to chase it. The butterfly flew from flower to flower, with Luna close behind. They ran through the tall grass, over logs, and around bushes. But just as Luna was about to catch the butterfly, it flew too high, out of her reach.

 

Luna stopped and looked around. She had chased the butterfly so far that she couldn’t see her house anymore. Everything looked different, and she realized she was lost. Luna sat down and meowed softly, hoping Mrs. Willow would find her.

 

After a little while, Luna heard a familiar voice calling her name. It was Mrs. Willow! Luna followed the sound and soon saw her owner walking through the trees. Mrs. Willow picked her up and said, "There you are, my adventurous little kitten! Let's go home." Luna purred happily as they made their way back to the house, ready for her next adventure.

What is Luna's reaction when she steps outside for the first time?

• She is scared and runs back inside

• She is excited and curious about everything.

• She ignores the outdoors and stays at the door.
