Chapter Text
"Ok, girlies, here's a major tip to take care of your monster cat. We all know Grim likes to get messy, but sometimes it's too much for him to lick off. So, I purchased this sudsy pet-friendly shampoo that is bubblegum scented and claims to melt off dirt and grime from your furbaby. Hopefully, it works," Yuu says, lighting a lavender-scented candle. "Ghosts, bring in the cat!"
The ghosts quickly drop Grim into the warm bath water, and he tries to get out. Yuu puts on her cat-proof gloves and pets Grim's head to calm him down. His hisses and shrieks turn into delighted purrs as warm water runs down Grim's back.
"Good kitty, stay still and eat the fish on your platter as I clean your fur," Yuu whispers, pouring shampoo onto her hands and rubbing them together.
As Yuu starts to clean Grim, his black fur becomes surrounded by bubble clumps. Soon enough, he looks like a cat caught in a cloud. He meows in confusion as Yuu rinses him off and pours some conditioner onto his fur.
"Almost done, Grimmy," Yuu says, rubbing in the conditioner and then rinsing it off. "All done. Please don't shake yourself dry before I towel burrito you."
Yuu swaddles Grim's chonky body into a fish-decorated towel and shows him in the mirror with her phone.
"I think this shampoo is Furgirl-approved," Yuu says, ending the video and uploading it to her MagiTok. "You behaved so well, Grim. You gained an extra reward of canned tuna today for not scratching me."
"Nyah! Yay!" Grim cheers, cuddling his head onto Yuu's chest.
"I'll let you eat while I get changed," Yuu replies, putting Grim down and walking to her room. "Afterwards, we can chill and do cuddles."
Not long after her video is posted, her phone is blowing up with likes, comments, duets, and messages. After changing into pajamas, she picks up her phone again and checks the latest DM, relaxing on her bed.
"Hey, Grim, check it out. Some really famous guy from here named Eric Venue wants to talk to me this Friday. Apparently, many of his co-stars want our products," Yuu states, showing the message to Grim. "What do you think? Should we accept?"
"Absolutely. We could get more money, and I could get more fish," Grim replies, licking some tuna off his mouth.
"Ok, then! I'll accept! Now let's watch some Planet Animal. I know how you like their Big Cat shows," Yuu comments, turning on the TV. Little did Yuu know that following Grim's advice would lead to another conflict filled with family drama.
