I haven't looked at many of these 'challenge' stories because, while I have nothing against dogs or cats (as opposed to kids), I'm not a pet owner nor will I ever be one. The responsibility that comes with the care of a pet is not something I want to have to deal with.
But, your ability with humor encouraged me to give this one a try. I'm glad I did. It was very well done. The cat was very cat-like (many of my friends have cats), but the best for me was Lois. Lois was *very* Lois-like.
It was easy to picture Lois doing all those things you had her doing. The visuals were clear, and the actions contained the right humorous bent without looking, or feeling silly.
