The Emergency Meeting About the New Throw Pillow

Original cat comedy · Short read · Fiction

The new throw pillow arrived on Tuesday, already looking smug. It was mustard yellow, had tassels, and occupied a section of sofa previously reserved for nothing in particular.

Crumb called an emergency meeting. Olive attended from the back of the sofa. Pickle attended from inside the pillow’s packaging and refused to surrender the venue.

The human explained that the pillow “pulled the room together.” The association requested evidence that the room had been coming apart.

An inspection identified six tassels, zero edible components, and a suspicious instruction to spot clean only. Olive asked whether the pillow had ever held a proper job.

After forty minutes, Crumb climbed onto it and fell asleep. Pickle recorded this as an objection rather than an endorsement, because the minutes were already nearly finished.

The final ruling allowed the pillow to remain on a probationary basis, provided it did not become comfortable for anyone else.

That evening, the human bought a matching one. The association declared a housing crisis.
