Once upon a time, there was a cat named Tim. One day, Tim went to visit his best friend, a dog named Max. Max lived in a big red house. Tim thought the house was very pretty. But sometimes, their play dates were boring. Tim wanted to find a fun game to play.
Tim said, "Max, let's find a new game to play. I don't want to be bored." Max agreed, "Yes, let's make this visit fun!" So, they went outside to look for a game. They saw a ball near a tree. It was big and blue. Tim had an idea. "Let's play a game with this ball!"
Tim and Max decided to play a game called "Strike and Catch." Tim would strike the ball with his paw, and Max would try to catch it in his mouth. They played the game all day long. They laughed and ran around the yard. Their visit was not boring anymore. Tim and Max were very happy.
