"Uh, well," I stammered and tried not to look at her. "There's a bathrobe at least in the closet over there. Maybe you should start with that?"
Karyn leaned over and started scratching my back again. Darn it. I started to purr again. "Hmm. That's something," she said thoughtfully, and scratched my neck a bit, which reminded me I was wearing a pet collar.
"Um, Karyn, can you take this collar off?" I asked between purrs.
"Why?" she asked. I heard her stand up and tried not look at her as she moved around the room. "You want to be completely naked, Jon? Ah, here's the light switch." Something clicked and the suite was flooded by light. "Oh, wow! This is such a great place!" Karyn walked over to the closet door. "Come on, kitten."
"I'm mostly naked already!" I exclaimed wanting to just find someplace to bury my head. I tried to just focus on looking at her feet as I padded after her. "It's not like the collar exactly hides anything, you know."
"I noticed, tom cat," she answered smugly. I mewed and wanted to die. Geeze, she was being such a tease! "Ah, here's a bathrobe, and a night gown, and some towels are up here on the top shelves."
I perked up a bit. "Is there an extra one I can wear? I mean, if I change back to being human?"
Karyn shrugged. Darn it, my eyes had wandered back up to stare at her! I quickly looked away from her body again. "Sure, here's one." She stood up on her toes and pulled down a pink towel and dropped it on me, then grabbed another for herself. "Well, I'm going wash up now," she said cheerfully. "I left the tub filling with hot water, which should be great." She leaned down and scratched me ears until I purred some more. "Come along sleepy head. We can set your towel out on the floor and you can sleep on it. It's getting late, and cats need their sleep."
I sputtered. "But Karyn, I want to find some clothes for myself!"
Karyn put a hand under my chin and lifted up my face so she could look at me. "But cats don't need clothes, silly. Heck, I don't particularly need them since there's no other people around. You see me complaining?" She started scritching me under the chin and giggles quietly. "I think I kind of like this, being able to walk around with my new looks and not worry about anything just yet. I know it's not going to last." She sighed and leaned over to kiss my nose. "Now, act like a good kitty." She walked back over to the bathroom, not bothering to close the door. Geeze! I looked after her, then at the door to the suite. Should I stay here, or try to explore more? I tried to decide.
