“Care for some apples Ma’am in exchange for the kitty?” he asked.
“Why yes sir. That will be just fine,” replied Sally. Farmer Buckles’ hunch was correct.
Sally knew that she would like a home, but she also knew that it would be easier to first find a home for Max. Of course, Max was worth much more than a few apples. Nevertheless, she wanted only the best for Max.
