Once upon a time, a long time ago, it was the coldest winter ever recorded.

The harsh winter made some people more caring, while it made others only harsher.

In this little town, there was a pet shop. And in this pet shop lived a little gray kitten. The kitty's name was Julian.

A nice man owned the shop. He treated the animals with love and care.

But the winter was so cold and bitter, the old man got sick and died. No one came to buy any pets. So the shop had to close down.

All the animals didn't have anywhere to go. So they had to fend for themselves.

Julian was sad. He missed the owner. It was so cold and difficult to find food and stay warm. All he wanted was to be part of a happy family.

One day, as Julian was trying to find some scraps, bullies appeared out of nowhere and started to make fun how scrawny Julian looked. This only made Julian more sad. So he ran away.
