Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bellalunea was not thrilled being thrown into a cage. She didn't fight it, but man she hated it. It was as if someone was locking her up and just the thought of that made her want to claw someone's eyes out. If only her human had any idea what she was capable of she would never dare to do this. Well she thought that way until she noticed something coming through the top hole of her carrier. It was some specialty cat treats. They were the cat treats the hotel chief made up every day just for her. She quietly took one in her mouth and chewed on it as she watched through the hole of her cage.

Sabrina's parents were truly some easy humans. They let their daughter go out without a second thought. To trusting in her eyes, if only they knew what chaos lay outside those doors. Maybe then they would treat their daughter a little differently. Not that she really cared one way or another, but still.

Sabrina was so excited her parents agreed Sabrina's eyes lit up with joy as she heard her parents' agreement. She held onto Bellalunae, her beloved cat, and while still holding the pet carrier. She quickly gave her parents hugs and kisses. "Thank you! We'll see you soon!" she said to her parents as she rushed out the door. The thought of Bellalunae getting pampered at the groomer filled her with excitement, and she couldn't wait to see her cat looking even more beautiful than before. Not only that but now she could also go Halloween shopping.

Sabrina's mind buzzed with ideas for the perfect costume as she imagined the colorful decorations and spooky accessories she'd find at the store. Her excitement grew with each step, thinking about the haunted houses, candy-filled pumpkins, and the fun she would have with her friends. She couldn't wait to dive into the Halloween spirit and make this year unforgettable. As she ascended on the groomer she smiled and spoke to Bellalunae, "Time to get you pampered!" But as she walked into the door she ran right into what looked like a very fluffy dog maybe two!

Kianna quickly apologized, "Oh my gosh! I am so sorry! Are you alright? My dogs got a little ahead of me." Kianna quickly gathered the leashes and pulled her dogs back to her side, ensuring they stayed calm and under control. She crouched down to check on Sabrina and Bellalunae, making sure they were okay. "They're usually very well-behaved," Kianna said, giving the dogs a gentle but firm command to sit. "I think they are just excited about the groomer. Are you headed there too? Oh and my name is Kianna, nice to meet ya!"

The dogs, now sitting obediently beside Kianna, seemed equally curious about the new arrival. One of them gave a tentative wag of its tail, while the other let out a soft whine, as if trying to make peace with the disgruntled feline.

Bellalunae's ears twitched, but she seemed to settle slightly, sensing the dogs' more relaxed demeanor. Bellalunae's tail flicked nervously, but she didn't hiss or growl. Instead, she cautiously sniffed the air, her eyes narrowing as she tried to assess the situation. Slowly, she began to relax, her body language softening as she realized the huskies posed no immediate threat. "Well I might as well just enjoy my snacks," she thought in her head as she began to munch on the few treats she had left. After all these dogs weren't magic nor worth her time.

Sabrina nodded, considering the idea. "That sounds like a good plan. Besides, it's always nice to have a friendly chat while we wait." She quickly checked in her cat and took a seat next to Kianna, her hand gently resting on the carrier, and the two women began to chat, making the wait feel a bit more pleasant for everyone involved. "So, how long have you had your Huskies?" Sabrina asked, genuinely curious. She glanced at the dogs, admiring their thick fur and bright eyes. "They seem so well-behaved. I've had my cat for a couple years now." She remembered how she had found her on the cold dark street. Just a kitten who needed a home she could call her own. It wasn't long before the whole family hotel knew she was a permanent resident.

Kianna smiled warmly as she began to share her story. "I've had them since they were puppies," she said, her eyes lighting up with fond memories. "They've always been a handful, but with lots of training and love, they've become the gentle giants you see now." "It wasn't easy at first," Kianna continued, "Huskies are known for their stubbornness and high energy. I had to be very consistent with their training, using positive reinforcement techniques like treats and praise. We also spent a lot of time socializing them with other dogs and people, which helped them become more well-behaved." She said with a smile when she suddenly heard her name called. She quickly walked the dogs up to the counter of the groomer. The groomer greeted Kianna with a warm smile, kneeling down to pet the huskies. "These two look like they’ve been well taken care of," she remarked, noting their glossy coats and calm demeanor. Kianna handed over their leashes, giving each dog an affectionate pat before the groomer led them to the back for their grooming session.

Kianna's eyes lit up at the suggestion, and she nodded enthusiastically. "Absolutely, that sounds like so much fun! I love Halloween, and it would be great to find some cute costumes for the dogs," she replied, her excitement evident in her voice. Together, they strolled into the pet store, their footsteps echoing on the polished floor. The Halloween section was adorned with colorful decorations, spooky toys, and an array of costumes. Kianna and Sabrina eagerly began sifting through the racks, laughing and sharing ideas for their pets' new festive outfits.
