Taking the creature home wasn’t a rational decision; it was a moment of panicked empathy. They called him Harry. In the sterile environment of their ranch-style home, Harry was a walking earthquake. He didn’t understand glass, he found the television fascinatingly offensive, and his scent—a mix of wet earth and ancient musk—became a permanent fixture of the upholstery.
