Flossie and Freddie tried to help, but you know how it is with little
children. The two smaller twins were very anxious that Snoop, the
black cat, be taken with them in his little traveling crate.
"I'll get him and pack him up," said Freddie.
"And I'll help," offered Flossie.
Soon all was in readiness for the start to the depot where the
Bobbseys would take the train for Meadow Brook. Just as the automobile
came up to the door to take the family, there arose a cry from the
direction of the side porch where Flossie and Freddie had gone with
the cat-cage, in which to put Snoop.
"Oh, my!" exclaimed Mrs. Bobbsey. "I wonder what has happened now? I
hope those twins are all right!"
"I'll go see!" offered Nan, setting off on a run.
CHAPTER V
SNAP'S ESCAPE
Nan found Flossie and Freddie, standing one on either side of the
wooden crate in which Snoop made his journeys. The twins each had hold
of the black cat, who did not seem to be enjoying life very much just
then.
"He goes in this way, I tell you!" shouted Freddie.
"No, he goes in the other way!" cried Flossie, and then they both
tried, at the same time, to thrust poor Snoop into his cage.
