Aaron peered into the window of a cat room with a slight degree of interest while he waited for Keeley to come back with a shelter employee. Most of them were sleeping. How much did cats sleep, anyway? He had no idea.
Truthfully, he had never even entertained the idea of getting a pet before he thought it might be a good way to get Keeley to like him more. What do you even do with them? Before today, he had never so much as petted a cat.
He hated admitting ignorance but he had noticed that Keeley was the type willing to help people out. If he didn't know something, she would help him with it no matter how begrudgingly. It would be easy to stay in contact with her asking for cat advice over the next several weeks. A perfect excuse.
Keeley's voice sounded from around the corner. "…he's never had a cat before and works all day so he's looking for one that's relatively calm and independent. Do you have any like that?"
