Yes [Mackenzie's perspective]

The world looked bad the last days, but now finally something good happened. John finally showed some interest. He must have seen the danger of losing me with this pet law, and now wants to take his chance to court me. I wake up early, and spend hours thinking about what I should wear. Lea tells me to be cautious, and talks about how much John was supporting the government all the time, even the blonde pet law. But I think she is just trying to make it easier for me, in case it doesn't work out. Maybe she is even just jealous.

It's quite warm outside, so I settle on a blouse and a skirt together with red silk panties and bra. (I know a little bit cliché, but my experience is that they work.) Some make-up, and my blonde hair open.

Soon it is 2 pm, and John arrives. - My heart beats faster. Lea opens the door, and he greets her and Craig and shakes their hands. "Too nice to lend me your pet."

"No, it's a pleasure, and I am sure Mackenzie will enjoy it too."

I come closer and John looks out for me "Hi there, cutie" I nod to him and hold out my hand, but he just cuddles me on my shoulders saying "Who is a cute beauty? Who is a cute beauty? - You are!" and draws me close. I smell his scent and shyly hug him back.

As he lets go, he takes off his backback: "I have something for you!" and he holds up a pair of pink cat ears attached to a headband. I am not sure what to make of it, and smile a little. "Yes, I thought, it'd be fitting for you, let me attach it", and before I can think much about it he puts it on my head.

"Yes, this is great," he says and I am happy about his excitement. I might even blush a little as he continues. "I have something more. Lea and Craig, you told me about the trouble with the rule to hold both her hands all the time. I got something for that." And he takes out a collar. It is made of pink leather, covered with fluffy fur and with some dull metal spikes. Attached to it is a D-ring to attach a leash. "Look, Mackenzie, this will make it so much more comfortable. It's what the government intended anyway. Come here so I can attach it to you."

I see how Lea and Craig are unsure about this, and look to me. But I really want to please John, and also he has a point. It's more practical this way. Hey, he will have a free hand to touch me ;). So I walk towards him, turn with my back towards him, crouch a little bit, and shift my hair away. Carefully, he puts the collar around my neck and I hear a quite solid-sounding click as it closes. Then I turn around and let him fix the leash with a snap hook to the collar. It's a quite complicated snap hook, that seems to have some kind of combination lock.

He pulls it to test. It feels strange. I never felt so much like a pet than now. "Looks great," John says and smiles full of excitement and fun and I feel better already.

He then turns to Lea "Hey, Lea, before we go, there is one thing," and he seems a little hesitant, but seems to build up some courage. "You are Mackenzie's owner, so I want to ask you, how far can I go with petting her? You know, at the end you need to decide the boundaries"

Lea is not quite sure whether this is a joke, but decides to take it for one and laughs. "You are quite direct, aren't you? Anyway if someone was asking this seriously, I'd say: Whatever Mackenzie wants is fine with us." John and me laugh as well, only partly successful in getting over the strange situation.

John takes the leash and leads me out the door. We walk through the sun and he talks about the weather, and how happy he is to be able to spend time with me. I'd love to talk to him, but restrict myself to smiles and laughs. I walk more closely to him, and 'accidentally' touch him, indirectly offering him to hold hands. Close to the park entrance he lays his arm around my shoulder, and I lay my arm around his hip. Oh! The touch feels really sexy. I am very happy.

At the entrance, I remove my shoes and socks and give them to him. Then we find a secluded spot and start to make out. He cuddles me like a cat, stroking my head and my back. - I am not so sure about that, but it is still nice and exciting, I move my hands below his shirt, then he does the same, opening my shirt and feeling my boobs still in the bra. I get really hot, especially when he moves his leg up between mine, touching my panties.

I am happy and horny, and look him in the eyes and move my lips to his ... but he moves his lips away, kissing me on my neck instead. I love that, but shortly after I try to kiss him again, and he almost seems to avoid it.

Cautiously, I whisper in his ear "Hey handsome, don't you think it's time to kiss me?"

He is surprised, almost shocked: "Mac, you are a pet now. You cannot, you must not talk."

I am surprised "But, nobody can hear us here"

"No, Mackenzie, this is not OK. It is not legal, you can only talk to your owner, and I am not your owner yet. But even then: It is not becoming of a pet to speak more than absolutely necessary." I don't know what to say about this. He really seems to buy into the Council's crap.

"Look, Mackenzie. I really like you, and I want to be with you. With you how you truly are: a pet. I read up about it: kissing and holding hands with pets is not good. It humanizes you. Maybe we can do it later, once we are both more settled in with the situation, but not now." I just look at him.

"Hey, but there is so much more stuff we can do together," and he cuddles my head, and moves his hands to my boobs, and his leg pushes into my crotch.
