The Next Morning

Carlie woke up slowly, stretching luxuriously with a purr in the warm sunlight shinning on her bed. Suddenly, a voice in her ear whispered "Good morning, my little kitten". Carlie jumped in fright with a startled meow. She turned and saw Sera lying on the bed, in a similar outfit to what she was wearing yesterday. Sera jumps up off the bed and leads Carlie out of the room.

They go downstairs to a courtyard on the other side of the building than the main entrance, where a car was waiting for them. As they walked to the car, they talked about the benefits and rules of being a catgirl. They get in the car, and Sera introduced the driver as Geralt, the designated driver for catgirls at The Center. Geralt began driving and Carlie felt incredibly relaxed. She found herself lying down in the backseat, resting her head on Sera's lap. Carlie fell asleep to the humming of the car and the warm sunlight on her skin.

When Carlie wakes up, Geralt is pulling into a shopping mall called Katie's Kitty Emporium. Sera explains that it is a shopping mall geared directly to catgirls. She encouraged Carlie to get whatever she wanted, within reason. The Center payed for it with a combination of tax money, donations, and adoption fees. Sera explains that she would be waiting in the lobby, talking with some other catgirls, and instructed Carlie to meet her there when she is done with her purchases so that they could go to the registers together.

There are 4 floors, each with a different shop selling different things on them. The first floor had the lobby, the registers, the bathrooms, the literature store and the general information booth. The second floor has clothing, any size and shape, including casual wear, semi-casual wear, formal wear, active wear, swimwear, lingerie, shoes, "uniforms", leg wear, and all manner of fetish outfits. The third floor was home to the best hair styling shop for catgirls in the state. The fourth floor houses a general goods store, containing hair accessories, collars (required after leaving the center), and sexual toys, among other things. Carlie decides to work her way up from floor 1.
