Est. on the first wormhole · Ordinary critters. Extraordinary rails.
The last car on the train is never the least important. On the Critter Line it is the whole railroad. The house lives at charlottescrittercaboose.com — barn red, gold on the rim, all tracks leading home.
It looks like a short red car on a spur under the oaks. Inside, it is larger than weather. Charlotte is conductor of record. Dolly is engineer. Duckster, Dolly’s personal vehicle, sleeps in a side bay the way a ladle sleeps in a drawer.
What the rails fetch
They do not collect magickal beasts. Those already have a home. Vance Randolph’s Ozark wonders live forever inside the Dodecahedron the Snawfus gave Dolly, going in and out at will.
What the caboose fetches are the ordinary ones: a barn cat left when the river rose, a pair of heifers walking a Dust Bowl fence, a crate of library cats from a century that forgot how to be quiet. When a rescue is finished they come home to Arkatype Farms. The Dodecahedron’s company helps grant them intelligence and language, and the farm grows another voice.
