Jack sat at the table eating a plate of fish. The sun was shining and it was a warm day, so he opened the top half of his door. He heard birds chirping and the wind gently blowing the leaves on the willow tree.

Ten cats lived nearby in a row of trash cans. They didn't have any food to eat. One of them smelled Jack's fish cooking and ran to his house. The other cats followed.

Jack heard a horrible noise outside his door. He put his plate in the sink and went to see what it was.

There sat the ten cats. They meowed and scratched his door, trying to get inside.

Jack smiled. He had three more fish in his refrigerator, so he cooked them and put them in a bowl. He opened the door and put the bowl down. All ten cats came running and bit into the fish. Every day the cats came to visit and every day Jack fed them fish and they sang him a song.
