Orochimaru & Cats
Jiraiya was bored out of his mind and decided he was going to see what his snake friend was up to.
When he got there he was thinking if he should knock like a normal person or jump through the window, but his thoughts were interrupted when the door in front of him Creaked open.
As he looked up from the spot he was staring at on the floor he was met with a pair of golden eyes.
“Oh, hi Oro!” The white haired man exclaimed.
“What do you want? I’m currently very busy.” The raven haired man didn’t look to pleased with his friend.
“I’m bored and you seem to be doing something interesting enough most the time. So can I come in?”Orochimaru looked a little hesitant but stepped aside soon enough and let the toad summoner in.
As Jiraiya stepped in he noticed two things, one there were cat toys all over the floor and two there were two cats lounging on the couch and another two on the coffee table.
There was a fluffy brown cat with white on its chest, stomach, and paws on the table which was the biggest cat. Then next to it was a plump orange tabby who looked pretty pissed at the presence of Jiraiya’s existence. On the back of the couch was a small siamese who didn’t seem to impressed with him ether but still wasn’t as pissed as the orange one, lastly on the cushion furthest from the Siamese was a medium sized fluffy plain white cat which was quite happy.
“Hey since when did you have cats? I don’t remember them.” Jiraiya questioned as he walked over to the cat on the back of the couch and started petting it, it let him pet them despite giving off killing intent.
“I got one last month, two a week ago and the last one four days ago.” The snake summoner explained as they walked over to the big brown cat.
” This is Oscar and he’s a boy the orange one is Charlie which is also a boy, the one you’re petting is Mocha also a boy and the white one is Milk and is female.” All Jiraiya could think of was how Orochi can afford having so many cats if they’re a 19 year old orphan child who can barely afford to feed themselves and pay rent.
“Ok so do you wanna go to a bar tonight, Tsunade won’t be coming though she’s at the hospital and won’t got off work till 10:30 am.”
“Ok but I won’t be able to stay longer than an hour and a half, I have work tomorrow and if I’m caught lacking Donzō will kill me.”
“Ok get ready and we’ll go.”

After two hours at the bar the two stumbled out and started walking home until something caught Orochimaru’s eye and they slammed on the brakes.
“What’s the hold up?” Orochimaru seemed to be staring at something in the alley and completely ignored Jiraiyas question.
The snake summoner then walked into the alley picked something up then turned around and presented a small fluffy jet black bobtail.
“No you can’t bring it home.”
“But Jiraiya it’s so lonely and look how skinny…. ‘Oro paused to quickly check the cat’s gender’ she is. And it’s so cold out here!”
“Fine but when you die because you spent all your money on cat stuff it’s not my fault.”
“I never said it was, now let’s go home. I’m naming the cat Burnt by the way.”

Two months later Charlie the tabby consumed rat poison and died, Orochi was devastated for about three days but didn’t cry once.
Later one evening though when they were laying nearby their favourite lake in the woods they’re thinking was disrupted when something started sniffing them. They opened one of their golden eyes to see a gray fur ball sniffing their hair.
After Orochimaru’s brain had processed this they grabbed the cat and shot up into a standing position and took a good look at their new feline friend.
After checking the cat’s gender they decided on naming him Felix.
Orochimaru then went to find Tsunade and Jiraiya.

On their way to Tsunade’s house they saw her Saritobi Sensei and Jiraiya at a training ground nearby the exit of the forest. They then held the cat firmly to their chest and ran over to the group.
“Hey! Guess what I got a new cat I’ve named him Felix!”
As everyone turned to the source of all the commotion and they realized who had said what had just registered in their heads they all got really upset with person that had recently taken to adopting random cats.
“Orochimaru you aren’t taking that cat home you have to many!”
“Sensei let them have their cat they probably don’t have that many.”
“Tsunade, they have four cats if they bring this one home they’ll have five.”
“Oh, Oro put the cat down.” The blonde woman knew that her friend was going to protest so she got ready to get up if necessary.
“Ok I’ll put him down…..at my house.” Before any one could protest they had already shunshined away with their cat.
Nobody had energy to go after them on such a hot day so everyone accepted defeat and let it go.
