Wandered through the empty rooms, his paws tapping softly on the floor. Today was supposed to be special; he’d even been dreaming of extra treats and belly rubs. But everyone seemed busy, and he hadn’t heard a single “Happy Birthday” all day.
Just as he was about to curl up in his bed with a sigh, he noticed his family gathering in the living room. They called him over, and to his surprise, a birthday cake sat on the table with his name on it! They showered him with love, making him realize that sometimes, the best surprises come when you least expect them.
