Gravy The Cat
and The Elephant
They met under the strangest of circumstances. It is not
impossible. Gravy The Cat had never met an Elephant, even
though he had heard from other cats what great and strong
creatures they are. Being The King, Gravy felt it was
important for him to meet all creatures. And so began his
journey far and wide. Along the way, Gravy The Cat gave
much thought to the stories he had heard about Elephants
being trained by humans. Being a Cat, Gravy could not
comprehend how anyone would allow himself to be trained.
How then, could it be that someone so large and so strong
as The Elephant would allow such a thing? This is a
question that kept Gravy The Cat searching endlessly for
The Elephant. Day after day he would set out in his
search.
Because Gravy The Cat was relentless, and had only one
thing on his mind, it is easy to understand how he was
finally successful in finding The Elephant. The day was
perfect. The sun shone on them as they sat for hours and
talked as if they had known each other all their lives.
They had A Bond. They were Friends. Now that they knew
each other they both knew they would know each other
Forever.
Gravy The Cat felt at ease with The Elephant and so he
saw no harm in asking her what he longed to know, “Why
would you allow yourself to be trained by a human?” The
answer was really quite simple. The Elephant was actually
the kindest animal in all the land. She allowed the human
to train her because she knew how much the human wanted to
think he could.
Gravy The Cat and The Elephant remained friends Forever
and they shared many stories about life and the importance
of liberty for all animals.
