Jim, Rita and their cat, Whiskers 1 (drive) home to London. They 2 (stay) with their best friends Bob and Sue, in Edinburgh, and just 3 (wave) them goodbye.
700 kilometres of motorway lay ahead. Whiskers was not happy! He 4 (miaow) in his basket on the back seat.
“Poor Whiskers!” said Rita. “Sh! Whiskers!” said Jim, I can’t concentrate.” Suddenly there was a big bang, and Jim and Rita’s car 5 (crash) into the car in front and 6 (catch) fire. Fortunately, the police 7 (arrive) on the scene very soon and 8 (pull) them out of the car. However, poor Whiskers was left behind. Rita was distraught, and before the policeman could stop her, she 9 (race) back to the burning car to save him. She 10 (carry) Whiskers to safety in her arms, when suddenly there was a huge explosion. The cat 11 (leap) up into the air and 12 (run) away. After an hour of fruitless search they still 13 (not/find) him, so with heavy hearts they set off again for home. About two months passed.
It was two o’clock in the morning and Rita 14 (lie) awake in her bed in London. She 15 (dream) about Whiskers. Suddenly she 16 (hear) a strange scratching sound.
Thinking it might be burglars, she 17 (wake) Jim up and quietly they 18 (creep) downstairs. They couldn’t tell where the noise 19 (come) from. Then Jim opened the front door and, to their amazement, there was Whiskers! He 20 (walk) for over 60 days, and incredibly he 21 (find) his way home.
He was exhausted and his paws 22 (bleed), so Rita 23 (knit) him some woolen, baby bootees, which he 24 (wear) until his feet were better. So from then on he was called ‘Puss in Boots’.
