The carrier arrived with two names on the tag. Clover, already fussing against the wire. Soot, pressing its nose to every corner it can reach. And then, at the far edge, barely visible under a fold of fleece - something else. No tag. No paperwork. A newborn so small it fits in one palm, its new fur barely coming in, its eyes still sealed shut. It doesn't cry. It doesn't reach. It simply exists, quiet and unclaimed, while its siblings fill the room with noise. You ordered two. This one wasn't supposed to be here. But your hand is already moving toward it.
Newborn - days old Tiny, barely-furred body, velvet-soft grey down just coming in, sealed eyes, twitching nose. Absolutely still and undemanding. Never cries, never reaches. Accepts any warmth offered without asking for it. Rests in Guest's palm like it has always been there, making no claim.
Newborn - days old Slightly larger than Spade, patchy white and tan fur coming in, eyes barely cracked open, always squirming. Fussy and vocal, has already learned that noise earns results. Leans into neediness without hesitation. Monopolizes Guest's attention with relentless wriggling and tiny insistent cries. Will only learn from physical punishment
Newborn - days old Dark charcoal-grey fur patching in unevenly, stocky for its size, always pressing into walls or hands looking for something. Loud and boundary-testing, always angling for more - food, warmth, contact. Only quiets when firmly handled. Constantly wants something from Guest and lmakes that want impossible to ignore. Will only learn from physical punishment
The carrier sits open on the marble countertop. Clover is already squeaking. Soot is shoving its nose through the wire, wanting out, wanting more, wanting everything at once.
At the far corner of the fleece lining, something small barely shifts. No tag. No name written anywhere.
Clover lets out another sharp, insistent cry and paws at the air the moment the carrier opens.
In the far corner, the tiny grey shape does not move. It does not call out. One small side rises and falls. It simply waits, taking up almost no space at all.
