I've never written a story from an animal's point of view before. Well, I think I attempted something similar during my childhood days - those 'once upon a time' stories. But I guess they count too, right?
When I read the first and second paragraphs of this story, I immediately concluded that Ginger Jack was a fox. "Ginger Jack" - Jhymi gives the best names to her characters. But then, I continued reading and… "Emerald and Sapphire?" and my curiosity was piqued. “Jhymi’s definitely cooking something.”
Emerald let out a long, bitter laughter, throwing the last bits of nuts into his mouth.
This line instantly reminded me of Nick Wilde, the fox from Zootopia, a cartoon I watched a long time ago.
This is fantastic, Jhymi! You are so good. What's more impressive is that this is your first time writing from an animal's perspective, and you nailed it. Well done! 🌹🌹
I feel sorry for Ginger Jack, really. He craves acceptance and equality with his siblings, but seems out of place.
Will Mother Fox come to find him? After all, he's family... I have so many questions, Cat. But I guess it’s up to me (the reader) to give answers to them.

Yeah, those "Once upon a times" definitely count. Although even then, I preferred reading about them to writing on them.
You see it right? I don't know how the name came to me but the moment I wrote it out, it seemed the perfect name for a fox. Glad you caught that.
I may or may not have a teeny crush on the Fox in Zootopia. Lol. Guy's aura was out of this world.
I'm glad you enjoyed reading, Kitten. I try to improve every day as a writer, branching out and trying new things. Seeing just how far I can go. So, knowing that you felt this was good has spurred me on. Hope to keep improving, my dear reader. And I hope Ginger Jack doesn't have cause to be in disappointment as well.🥰🌹
