Crumbling and blowing away in the light breeze, the roof of the shack has shingles barley hanging on. The door to the shack lays next to the door frame on the front porch which is now more of a hazard than a veranda. The shack is missing large chunks of the walls and one can see straight through the building in many place. The walls are coated with fuzzy molds and fungus while the exposed wooden frame has been eaten away in many places by worms.

I am a worm who slides through the dirt. I hear many secrets that people tell in the forest. I can tell some to you, if you would like.
Hello dear cat! I am just a worm who needs to get across this porch. Can you help me? I would love to. How can I help? Thank you! Just gently pick me up in your mouth or let me slither up your leg and take me outside. i don't want a bird to get me! In exchange I'll tell you a secret! Okay! I will pick you up right now. Let's get you to the safe porch. Thank you so much! A bird won't eat me if I'm near the grass. Because I am a worm I hear everyone's secrets in the forest and I have the perfect one for you. No problem! Meow. What is the secret? The people who own this barn have a house nearby full of mice and they're looking for a cat! If you show yourself, they'll take you in and you'll have a home! That is useful information! I'll get to catch all of their mice! Thank you very much, worms. You're welcome! And you'll have permanent shelter from the cold nights and rainy days! Can't beat it! Thank you for helping me! Any time! If you ever need more help, you know where to find me. Meow!
