Paragraph-1

The playful kitten chased a bright red ball across the sunny kitchen floor. Its tiny paws tapped lightly on the linoleum as it stalked its colorful prey with focused intensity. Suddenly, the ball bounced under the old wooden table, and the kitten paused, its whiskers twitching inquisitively. With a burst of energy, it darted beneath the furniture, emerging moments later with the prized toy clutched triumphantly in its mouth. The happy purr rumbling in its small chest filled the quiet room.
