Thursday Prompt: Caged

Today we are challenging you to write a story from the point of view of an animal or creature in a cage. A hamster, bird, lion, maybe a fish in a tank or fish bowl. Your story can be silly, serious, or a combination of the two. Think about the point of view. What does a bird see from its perch? Does a hamster care that his owner is a goth who listens to loud death rock? Is the lion tired of eating stew and would like to have a bite of Stu?  Possibilities are endless with this point of view. So get writing and have fun! Minimum word count of 500 words.
