Rickety old cat

Rockets round the yard chasing

Neighbours’ prowling pet.

*

Inspired by our Grand Old Dame, Queen Mia. Deaf and almost blind, she spies our neighbours’ cat, Bad Luck. Instantly, her clock winds back a decade. Fleet of foot, she flies in pursuit.

*

Another Mia-cat caper.

    Awww, I love your haiku and cats!! My old cat, blind except for shadows once got out … I found her walking down street, her head turning right and left . I got her and was thankful she wasn’t lost or run over or something else.

  • Lol your neighbour actually named their cat Bad Luck? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
