Cats - Kate Novak
“Oh, dear,” my mother-in-law says in a concerned voice. She is reading County Down local news on her I-pad.
“What is it?” I ask.
“There was a man found dead in his house. They say that judging by the decomposition of the body he must’ve been dead for over a week. His cats were feeding on him.”
“Meow,” Lulu says. I stare her down.
“Thank goodness for my nosy neighbors. I wouldn’t like to end up like that,” my mother-in-law says.
“I’m pretty sure that will be my end. Nobody will find me in time, and the cats will eat me.”
“Meow,” Lulu says.
“Oh, I hope my son finds you before that happens.”
“Statistically, women live longer than men.”
“I still hope he finds you first.”
“I better feed the cat.”
“Meow,” Lulu says.
