A Thief At The National Zoo (2007) - Plot & Excerpts
Dirk, the zookeeper, said. He placed a small tiger cub in KC’s lap and handed another cub to Marshall, KC’s best friend. “They’ve just eaten, so they should fall asleep.” “Thank you,” KC said. Then she sneezed. Twice. “Are you allergic to cats?” Dirk asked KC. He was tall and his long arms were tanned. He wore a short-sleeved shirt and cargo pants with zippered pockets. A thin silver bracelet dangled around one wrist. KC sneezed again. “No, we have three cats at home and they never make me sneeze,” she said. “But maybe I’m allergic to tigers!” Dirk laughed. “See you in twenty minutes,” he said. “I need to check on mama tiger.” He left the room and closed the door. The tiger cub on KC’s lap opened its mouth and yawned. The two-month-old Sumatran tiger was the size of one of KC’s cats. “You are so cute!” KC said, tickling the drowsy tiger’s belly. “Gee, thanks, KC. You’re kind of cute, too,” said Marshall with a grin. “Not you!” KC said.
