Pete's Expert Summary
Ah, yes. The Staff has presented me with a sheaf of these… "Prang Construction Papers." It appears to be a stack of fifty stark white, flat rectangles. From the human's perspective, this is a versatile medium for their rudimentary "arts and crafts," given its ability to be cut and folded without incident. For a feline of my distinguished taste, it is, in its raw form, an object of profound apathy. However, I must concede its potential. The crisp, slightly textured surface offers a superior platform for a strategic nap, particularly if placed upon important human documents. Its true value, however, may lie in its crinkling acoustics and its unfortunate tendency to be left in sunbeams, thus creating a warm, disposable lounging mat. A low-effort offering, but one with subtle, utilitarian possibilities.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The She-Human laid the slab of white paper on the floor with an air of theatrical importance, as if she were unveiling a platter of fresh tuna. I observed from my perch on the velvet ottoman, tail twitching in mild irritation. Another "project." This usually involved loud noises and messes that infringed upon my nap schedule. She extracted a single sheet, its whiteness a sterile void in our otherwise well-appointed living room. I yawned, a deliberate display of my complete and utter disinterest. She began folding. Crease, fold, turn. Crease, fold, tuck. I must admit, there was a certain precision to her work. The paper, this "Prang" specimen, yielded to her manipulations without the pathetic cracking or tearing of lesser pulps. It held its shape, sharp and clean, transforming from a featureless rectangle into a curious, winged shape. She held it up. "Look, Pete! A ghost glider!" A ghost? An insult to both my intelligence and the spectral realm. It was a paper airplane. A primitive, featherless, scentless effigy of a bird. I closed my eyes, feigning sleep, refusing to grant her the satisfaction of my attention. Then, she launched it. Instead of tumbling to the floor in a clumsy heap as I expected, the thing *flew*. It caught an air current from the heating vent and banked silently, a pale specter soaring through the dusky afternoon light. It dipped and rose, tracing a lazy, silent arc above the Persian rug. My nap was forgotten. My cynicism was, for a fleeting moment, suspended. That wasn't a toy. That was *prey*. The silence was what did it—the predatory quiet of its movement awakened an ancient instinct within my perfectly pampered form. My muscles coiled. As the "ghost glider" began its final, gentle descent toward the hardwood floor, I sprang from the ottoman, a gray and white blur of purpose. I intercepted it mid-air with a satisfying slap of my paw, pinning the fragile frame to the ground. It was no match for me, of course, but for a moment, it had been a worthy, silent opponent. I nudged the crumpled form under the sofa, its hunt complete. Perhaps this paper wasn't entirely useless after all.
