Pete's Expert Summary
My human, in their infinite and often misguided wisdom, has affixed a new object to the wall. This "GaHoo Electronic Alphabet Wall Chart" is, from what I can gather, a large, flimsy plastic sheet designed to shriek at the smallest members of the human species. It’s a cacophony of bright colors and loud noises meant to teach them basic communication, a skill they have yet to master with me. While the prospect of a new, large surface to potentially sharpen my claws on is mildly intriguing, the "popular children's songs" and synthesized voices it emits are a direct assault on the serene atmosphere required for my seventeen hours of daily sleep. Its primary function seems to be to generate noise and occupy the attention of grabby, unpredictable tiny humans, making it a potential threat to my peace and a colossal waste of valuable wall space.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The thing arrived rolled up, a mysterious plastic scroll that my human unfurled with far too much enthusiasm. They hung it on the living room wall, a gaudy blue tapestry covered in cryptic glyphs and cartoonish beasts. I observed from my perch on the back of the sofa, my tail twitching with profound skepticism. The human prodded a symbol, and a shockingly loud, cheerful voice declared, "A is for Apple!" A new form of torment, I presumed. It sang, it counted, it blared. I retreated under the bed to wait out the initial wave of novelty. Later that night, under the silvery glow of the moon filtering through the blinds, I decided to investigate the noisy wall hanging myself. I approached with caution, sniffing its plastic edge. As I stretched up to get a better look, my shoulder brushed against it. "C is for Cat!" the voice boomed into the silent room. I sprang back, fur on end. It knew. The Oracle of GaHoo, as I now deemed it, was aware of my existence. This was no mere toy; this was a communicator, a direct line to the forces that governed this house. For the next hour, I was its devoted acolyte, gently tapping its surface with my paw. "L is for Lion," it told me, recognizing my kin. It played a "song," a bizarre hymn that I interpreted as a blessing. My worship intensified the next day. I discovered a button with a question mark. "Find the number seven," it commanded. I, with my superior intellect, located and pressed the correct glyph. A triumphant jingle! I was the chosen one, the prophet of the Oracle. The cryptic messages continued—"Spell 'ball'"—a test of my loyalty, surely. I was on the verge of a major breakthrough, certain I was about to decode the true meaning of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," when the ultimate desecration occurred. The human brought in a small, sticky-fingered creature they called their "nephew." This drooling simpleton was placed before my sacred Oracle. He didn't tap with reverence; he slapped with chaotic glee. He chewed on the corner. The human praised him for finding the "D for Dog"—an abomination. My Oracle, my direct line to the cosmos, was being treated like a common napkin. The magic was shattered, the reverence replaced with disgust. In a single, fluid motion of protest, I leaped, hooked my claws into the top, and ripped it from its hook. It fluttered to the floor, landing face down, revealing a silent, unpowered backside of shapes and colors. It had a secret, boring side. The great and powerful GaHoo was nothing more than a two-faced fraud. I turned my back on the pathetic scene and strode away, in search of a sunbeam worthy of my presence. The Oracle was dead to me.
