Summary: Sam and Dean hit Santa Barbara on the basis of missing persons reports, Plain Jane types who seemingly disappear without a trace. When they get too close to the problem, Dean falls victim to the same fate. There’s far too much research and not enough answers. But, the real question is which of them has it worse: Sam, who has to figure out the entire case on his own with no help from his brother and the inability to keep his cool. Or Dean, who now has four paws, three eyelids, and a batch of whiskers. They say curiosity killed the cat, but Sam and Dean aren’t going down without a fight. Written for samdean_otp Mini Bang.



Monnnnths ago, I hosted a nap commentfic meme and deirdre_c prompted something about the boys being cats, or Dean being a cat ... either way, I couldn't unsee it. Not just because I have a great love for orange kitties (having grown up with one, and having her 20 years [!]), but because I do love most occasions when SPN walks that odd, cracktastic line. My brain started hatching ideas and I never found time to write any, until I decided to sign up for the Mini Bang so I could have schedules/deadlines and fantastic art.

Fantastic art indeed! ordinaryink is a hilarious, capslocking ball of energy and her excitement over this story amped me right up again. Any time I saw a piece of her art, I got excited all over again because it's all so beautiful and textured and DEAN IS AN ORANGE KITTY and I love it all and her. Thank you so much, Tracey, for taking on my story and drawing the hell out of it! <333

Huge thanks to strangeallure for a great beta that called out all sticking points and gave great encouragement for the entire story. She was helping me out from day one on determining which great kitty lore to follow (:-P) and how to incorporate it into the Winchesters' lives. THANK YOU BB :-****

And last but not least, big thanks to neros_violin, marciaelena and cordelia_gray for running the challenge!
