Follow our feline friend as she finds her healer, some Lunar berry magic, and becomes the Witch's Cat. After a long and exhausting day of hunting mice on Mr. Chancy's cabbage farm, a nameless barn cat longed for a peaceful resting place. The overcrowded barn left her with no choice but to seek solace elsewhere. Eventually, she found a cozy spot under a bush by the road, where she drifted into a peaceful slumber.


Suddenly, her tranquility was shattered by a piercing cry of pain as a wagon wheel rolled over her tail. In agony, she meowed desperately, hoping for someone to come to her rescue, yet no one responded. The only comfort came from a tiny bird perched in the bush above, whispering about a legendary healer known as the witch who resided in the forest.


Determined and in pain, the barn cat embarked on a slow and arduous journey to seek out the witch's remote cabin high up the mountain path. As she made her way, her tail ached in the cold night air, but the distant light from the witch's cabin beckoned her forward.


After arriving at the witch's cabin, the barn cat stealthily peered through the window, observing the mysterious figure inside. She watched in awe as the blind witch worked diligently in the kitchen, collecting and preparing various herbs and concoctions. The cat's stealthy observation revealed the witch's frustration, as she seemed to be running low on the essential ingredients for her potions.


Driven by a desire to express her gratitude and seek help for her injured tail, the cat took it upon herself to locate the scarce ingredients needed by the witch. After a challenging search, she managed to find the elusive Lunar berries and presented them as a token of appreciation to the kind-hearted witch. To her surprise, the witch graciously accepted the gift but assured the cat that healing her animal friends came at no cost.


The witch, after tending to the cat's injury with her mystical remedies, offered her a warm and safe place to rest, providing comfort and care like the barn cat had never experienced before. As she settled down and drifted off to sleep, she felt an overwhelming sense of security and belonging, finding solace in the company of the enigmatic witch and the knowledge that she was finally home."
