Soleil was too far away still to hear anything, so she had no reason to assume yet that she had been noticed. Instead, she continued to tip-toe closer even after noticing that a little girl was with the cat. She had every intention of getting a closer look at the kitty, especially now that she was close enough to confirm that she had not been seeing things and the cat was, in fact, wearing gloves.

"Hehehe."

The cat was too cute to ignore, but she didn't want to have it run off. So, sneaking was the only solution...even if she wasn't aware she had already failed.
