Please excuse my poor art skills. Hopefully this short story makes up for it.
"Aww, come on, can't we keep her?" One girl said as she lifted up my chubby, new feline body and presented me to the rest of the sorority. I cringed and hyperventilated in shame as all the other girls saw me like that, completely naked, shrunken enough to be cradled beneath a single arm.
"I don't know... a cat is a tough animal to own! She'll probably shed all over the rugs, and who's going to take her to the vet?"
"I AM NOT A CAT! IT'S ME, BRIDGETTE!" I said, or rather, would have said if this stupid form allowed any sounds to leave its mouth besides a self-degrading "Meowwwwwwwwwwww!" My long, obnoxious tail even waggled a bit as that horrendous animal noise escaped me, instead of my beautiful feminine voice. I never allowed these girls to adopt a cat! Those animals are annoying, selfish, and like to put their butts in your face! I couldn't believe that I was now one of those furry creatures I so adamantly hated!
My big, four-toed paws swung at my phone, which sat right on the table in front of me, but my roommate wouldn't let me go, keeping my means of turning back just out of my reach. As a human I would easily just grab my phone, open the TFtish app, and press the button to return myself to normal, but these stupid paws couldn't even pick up the damn thing! I would have to paw at it from the ground!
Curse that stupid app! I only downloaded it because the notifications about a "free trial" were clogging up my phone, and it looked like an interesting drawing app... not because I actually thought it could transform me into a common pet! A piece of property! Who would ever use such an app!?
Without even reading the terms and conditions, all I had done was tap on the TFtish application, and to figure out its function, I pressed a random "preset" form. If I knew that my phone was truly capable of swapping my body with that of an animal's, I would have been more careful! How could this happen? How could a file on my cell phone dictate my physical form like a magic wand? And now I would have to figure out how to fix myself while none of my roommates had any idea that my mind was stuck inside of an animal! They would never guess that this stupid feline was actually their friend! Girls don't just randomly poof into animals!
"I'll take care of her... pretty please?"
"Fine... but if that animal scratches someone, she's going out with the other strays. We don't even know if she got pregnant before stumbling into our building! You know how animals are..."
WHAT!? I couldn't believe what I was hearing! How could my own sorority mates speak about me in such a disgusting way!? They had to realize that I wasn't a normal cat, or a cat at all! They had to! They couldn't just keep me in this body and treat me like any other feline! I was supposed to be moving out, not demoting to the role of pet! How could my first day out of college be spent like this!?
I was promptly set down on the table, stood on all fours. No matter how dearly I tried to push my front limbs off the ground, this body was simply not built for walking on two legs, condemning me to crawling like an actual quadruped. My only blessing was that the girls had left me right next to my phone! Freedom awaited!
With haste I pawed at the screen, and even though my fingers were much more stubby and useless in this form, I managed to push the on button and the phone lit up. Two options displayed themselves across it:
-Abort transformation-
-Modify duration (Currently: Until end of free trial)-
I prepared to pound the first button, but before I could, the phone was swiped right off the table by one of the girls, the other humans retaining much more physical ability over I did in this form.
"Bridgette left her phone here? That's strange... wasn't she meant to be leaving today?"
With desperation, I looked up at the girls. If they just looked at the screen, they would have to figure out that I accidentally traded out my human body for this furry vessel! Why else would they have found me in a pile of my human clothes!?
"She must be coming back for her boxes later. I'll just leave this in her room until she comes back..."
NO! I NEED THAT! DON'T TAKE THAT!
"MEOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" I jumped at her as she walked away, only to splat right onto the ground and receive a symphony of giggles from all the other girls. My tail lifted and I accidentally revealed my butt. Before I could even get up, slipping on my fuzzy paws and panic in my eyes... the door closed, with my only way to turn back on the other side.
NO! NO NO NO! MY PHONE! HOW AM I GOING TO BECOME HUMAN AGAIN NOW!?
With tears in my yellowed eyes, I pawwed and scratched at the door. I couldn't stay like this! I didn't want to be a pet! I was a human girl that just graduated to be an artist, not an animal! I wanted to wear my pretty human clothes and talk to people, not spend my days lounging and hacking up hairballs! My own roommates were unknowingly keeping me prisoner! The same people who always told me how much potential I had in the art world, looking forward to seeing me in galleries, were now instead forcing me to live the life of a mewling house cat!
With the doorknob helplessly out of my reach, before long I was picked up again, and had a pink collar clicked onto my neck...
From there on out, I was marked as a subhuman pet...
By that evening, my dignity as a refined adult woman had been completely drained. Every minute of my life was now filled with constant reminders of how I was now little more than a piece of property that could be thrown out on the streets to eat from the dumpsters if it dared try to fight against anything my owners tried. I hated even calling my roommates that, after spending my entire life proving my independence...
That pink piece of plastic around my neck was irremovable by my own claws, forcing me to prance through the building on all fours with a tag and a little bell that jingled with each step. And it would not be the only humiliating item they presented to me.
First, carried in a small box of little, soft trinkets that were sprinkled all over the floor in front of me. Toy mice and yarnballs with teethmarks and slobber all over them, faintly bearing the smell of the neighbouring sorority's tabby kept. I was offended that they even expected me to play with the same, disgusting toys! I never wanted to even touch those destroyed chewing receptacles after seeing the other cat gnaw on them, let alone have them in my mouth too! Almost as soon as they were offered to me, I nudged them away and mewed in disdain, showing my place above such barbaric means of entertainment... until one girl pulled out her laser pointer.
I stood firm at first, as that little red dot circled my pouting form, but began to sweat as my eyes instinctively followed it. I begged myself not to give in and act like the same silly animals I once teased, soon clenching and unable to stop my tail from wagging. It moved so tantalizingly, with such freedom that I wanted to crush and capture... how dare that dot move around without bowing down to me...
Once I broke and was sent running after that little dot, my cheeks matched its redness. Even as my human brain knew that it was nothing but light that could never be caught in my palms, my body acted automatically and I ran all throughout the room, skittering up walls and running in circles on the girl's command. They all laughed each time I jumped it, trying to hold it in my paws, only to be sent into another scurry. I wished so deeply that I could just take my eyes off of that thing... but even as the entire sorority was watching me leap onto couches and dart frantically every time it moved, I couldn't stop... that dot was just too tempting...
By the time they finally stopped abusing my new feline instincts, my four stubby legs were worn out and my belly was rumbling.
I had planned to visit my favourite restaurant that evening in order to celebrate my graduation, but instead... the next thing that they unveiled was a little, pink cat bowl, of a shiny metal that displayed my embarrassing new reflection. A foul stench violated my extra-sensitive nose as a can cracked open and was poured out, and I winced when a bowl of wet, brown mush was slid up to me...
Every tuft of fur on my body agreed with this, and I snarled at the person who had just served me the disgusting mash of meat and vegetables that only a true animal could be appeased with. Not only was the texture completely unappealing to my human taste buds, but they also expected me to stick my nose right into the bowl and eat right off the ground!? I was a human! I wanted to eat with a knife and fork, using a napkin to wipe off my face!
No, no, never...
But... of course... my belly continued to gurgle... and TFtish had made me into a particularly fat cat...
I was so desperate to control myself that I even started to chew on the toy mice to distract myself from my intense hunger. But even the squeaking of those poor little plushes couldn't keep me satiated. Whether I wanted it or not, I'd walk my way back to that pet bowl, and my whiskers would get dirty as I took a quick, ashamed bite.
After I had... sigh... eaten the entire contents of my cat food... no matter how much I hated it... they brought in the third new item that I'd unfortunately need to get used to during this period of pethood. In the corner of the room, with very little cover for privacy, a tub was filled with sandy, soft dust...
Just realizing what they expected me to do caused my face to light up with a heavy blush... no, please no...
With a distraught face, I looked to the bathroom, but the door was closed. And what could I even do if I made it into that room? My body was so small that I'd be lucky to even jump onto the toilet, and if I tried to actually use it I'd probably end up soaked!
And of course... the girls shamelessly watched as I stood in that shameful litterbox... so I tried my best to... do my business quickly...
What a goddamn day...
I wanted to curl up under the blankets of my human bed and hide from all the embarrassment... I needed a catnap...
But every time one of the girls briefly left the door open and I took the opportunity, I would be promptly picked up and carried back to the main room, with a slamming sound coming from behind me. On top of that, my cell phone was left on top of the high table behind that door, so even if I made it in, it would be nearly-impossible to reach the app again in order to reverse this stupid curse! And what if the girls had shut down my phone after taking it? My only hope was one of them deciding to open it themselves and see the application I had recently downloaded, and then... did I even want these sorority girls to have access to an app capable of swapping out my body with anything fathomable? What if they use it just to embarrass me more? They could make me into their pet dog, or hamster, or leave me at a zoo or farm...
I was so furious and disgusted that this day had turned out like this, and couldn't even blow off steam by reading the social media where pictures of my fluffy body had no doubt already started circulating. That app would have been useful to change minor things, like my height and breast size, but instead I had accidentally got myself stuck as a collared feline until the trial runs out, which could take a very long time...
And the only thing I could do about it was curl up in the last new item they had bought me... a little pink cat bed, a circular cushion in the middle of the living room. I tried to sleep in one of the bedrooms, but they shut the door in my face, not wanting to risk me making hairballs on the clean floors.
So I sadly laid on that cushion, staring forward at my fluffy paws... curling my little toes in and out, stretching in the classic feline pose...
This wasn't the career I planned on graduating into...
