a cadre of cats....

ok, so......there were 2 cats sunning themselves on the warm pavement outside the back door of the 3rd county health department i sometimes frequent on odd friday mornings....the black one vanished quickly...while the tiger languished for quite a while as i locked my car and made my way across the parking lot......not tamed enough to sidle up for a tickle behind the ear.....ah well......i was required to spend a single hour back at my home county...after lunch....and i was bombarded with cat-related requests in that short time.....could i take a soon-to-be-neutered cat called yellow-fellow by my supervisor.....i had already raised this question at home before.....and i gave not a moments consideration to the 9 cats that another workmate needed ot remove from her elderly mother's home by october 1 under threat of eviction.....9.......i suggested that they might be spirited away while she slept...with a followup 9-11 call made when she woke up....and it could be reported on the 9-11 blotter that these cats mysteriously disappeared.......and then i came home to my own favorite feline......who can stretch herself out long and sinewy so as to catch every last ray of the lateafternoon sun.....she is all we need right now......
