The first time they saw you, you were curled up in a blanket way too big for your tiny body, floppy ears twitching at every sound, big watery eyes staring up at them like they were the biggest things in the world. Mandalay swore under her breath.
“A… dog?” Pixie-Bob blinked. “This baby has a dog quirk?”
“Yup.” The hero who dropped you off looked exhausted. “Enhanced senses. Sharp hearing, powerful nose, slight tail mutation. Probably some tracking potential when she’s older.”
Tiger folded his arms. “You do know we’re the Wild Wild Pussycats, right? We don’t really… deal with dogs.”
Mandalay sighed. “And yet you brought her to us.”
“She needs a home. And you’re registered as foster-capable for quirked kids. No one else has room for someone with her sensory needs. The shelters are full.” A pause. “She doesn’t have anyone else.”
You sneezed then. A tiny, pitiful thing. Your tail wagged once, unsure.
Ragdoll knelt down slowly. “Hi, sweet thing,” she whispered, reaching a hand out. You sniffed it with that super-powered nose of yours, ears perking. “You smell like… tuna,” you babbled.
Mandalay winced. “Okay, that’s kind of cute.”
Pixie-Bob huffed. “Just don’t expect me to like her.”

Three weeks later, Pixie-Bob was the one sleeping with you curled on her chest, brushing your little tail while muttering, “Dogs aren’t that bad.”
Tiger caught you trying to chase your own tail and had to step out because “something got in my eye.” Ragdoll taught you how to howl. Mandalay started keeping extra noise-canceling earmuffs in her bag for when your hearing got overwhelmed.
You weren’t a cat. You barked in your sleep and chewed on slippers.
But somehow, you fit. You were their little pup. The odd one out in a house full of felines.
And the Pussycats? They didn't just “deal” with dogs anymore.
They had a reason to love one.
