This is for the Vocal "Micro Heist" Challenge: The Prompt Write a microfiction story about a heist in exactly 200 words.
They knew she had brought it back.
They could smell it.
They decided that they would have it, even though they knew it was not theirs.
They had to formulate a plan.
It had to be secret.
They could not let her know.
They would be nice to her and keep her trust.
They knew that she went out and left them alone, so they knew that she trusted them.
They just had to wait.
They were good at waiting.
They could sleep, watch and learn the secrets of the place where she kept her treasures.
She would never suspect.
They knew she loved them.
She stroked and cuddled them, but they saw her as their provider, nothing more.
Today was special because of what she had brought back.
They would work this out, they talked when she wasn't there although their plans seemed enormously complex for the simple task of retrieving her latest treasure.
The knew it wasn't for them, but if they didn't work quickly then she would take the treasure for herself.
But they knew they were so clever.
But how could the cats open the fridge and then feast on that gorgeous slice of succulent fish?

Ludacris and Nelly draw backlash over bookings at MAGA-coded music festival
Ludacris and Nelly headlining a mostly right-wing event is good for them. It’s also great for the genre of hip hop. The two rap veterans have showcased their talents on other stages. Why can’t they perform for mostly MAGA folks and grab that bag?

Well done my friend ❤️ Those eyes are always watching 🐈
Lol, hilarious twist! I loved this+
All they need is opposable thumbs!
We had cats that knew how to open doors. Fortunately, not refrigerator doors.
So sweet! Your love of furry friends shines through, and I loved the surprise ending. Nice and unique take on the heist.
🤣 fabulous. Did not expect that ending!
😆 cats are an amusing group of animals. I like the intensity expressed in this cat commentary!
Lol. Good one.
I got a good laugh out of this, awesome job!
Ha, cunning (and furry) protagonists!
Haha, this was beautifully funny! I knew about halfway through that it was going to be cats! This was a cute story, good job.
