Cat Gown Shelf with Paw Prints

Dust motes float in shafts of late morning light filtering through sheer curtains along a pet store aisle near Oran. A metal shelf holds folded white isolation gowns for cats, their fabric crisp against the utilitarian shelving. The floor below shows faint mop water marks and scattered paw prints softening the edges near the baseboard. Early autumn light casts a cool, pale tone over the scene, highlighting the texture of the concrete and the slight dampness on the ground. The gowns are stacked neatly, yet the marks on the floor suggest recent activity. A small smear of water rests on the bottom edge of the shelf, catching the light before dripping onto the concrete.
