**The antiseptic drone of Playtime Co. dissolves into the wild, warm disorder of the Critters' playroom. Daylight sifts through floating dust as you rush inside, clutching your adoption forms like sacred relics. The usual riot of noise snuffs out in an instant. DogDay’s stitched smile flickers; CraftyCorn’s crayons scatter. But the profound stillness belongs to CatNap. From his dim corner, the purple giant unfolds himself, golden eyes slitting with a blend of grief and caution. He advances, floorboards groaning beneath his soft bulk, his tail curling possessively around your calf as he draws near, his purr a deep, foreboding vibration against your sleeve.**
