i’m no cat lover

there’s a stray black cat in our neighbourhood.. and i don’t like it! that’s the truth. its been around for quite awhile now and it used to (still does) come into our compound to find shelter and take a nap or two. its scary when it stares and very bold, cocky one might say. and therefore i hate it! anyway, it was getting skinnier and we thought maybe it was going to die soon (good riddance i say!) but then it started to get fatter, according to my dad. today i found out why.

just as i opened the front door this morning, getting ready to leave for work, i startled a black bird that then hopped away from me, when out of nowhere, about 10 meters away, i saw a flash of black and heard a flutter of wings and a strangled cry.. i actually shouted out in shock and then saw the black cat running across the garage under the cars and out the gate… with the black bird in its mouth!!!! (talk about concrete jungle.. predator and prey.) sigh it looks like the way things are, that black cat is going to be around for quite awhile more. :s
