Gray Whiskers and Wonder

Popsicle pressed her tiny gray nose against the hotel window. Disney World sparkled below like a jewel box full of treasures. The Russian Blue kitten's bright eyes widened as she spotted Cinderella Castle rising majestically in the distance.

"Look at all those colors!" she whispered to herself, watching the morning sunlight dance across the park's attractions.

Her family was still sleeping after their long flight. Popsicle's whiskers twitched with excitement. She had dreamed about this place her whole short life, and now she was finally here.

The construction crews were already busy around the castle, their yellow hard hats bobbing like tiny suns. Something magical was happening down there, and Popsicle's curious nature wouldn't let her just watch from the window.

The Tiny Door Opens

Popsicle's paws barely made a sound as she slipped through the hotel room door. The hallway stretched before her like a tunnel of adventure. She found the elevator buttons too high to reach, so she took the stairs instead.

Down, down, down she went, her gray tail swishing with each bounce. The lobby buzzed with families heading to breakfast, but nobody noticed one small kitten weaving between suitcases.

Outside, the morning air smelled like cotton candy and excitement. Construction workers in yellow hard hats moved around the castle like busy ants. Popsicle spotted a small opening near the castle's base where a worker had left a wooden box.

She squeezed inside and found herself in a dark tunnel that hummed with strange mechanical sounds.
