Rickety old cat

Rockets round the yard chasing

Neighboursโ€™ prowling pet.

*

Inspired by our Grand Old Dame, Queen Mia. Deaf and almost blind, she spies our neighboursโ€™ 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 โ€ฆ I found her walking down street, her head turning right and left . I got her and was thankful she wasnโ€™t lost or run over or something else.

  • Lol your neighbour actually named their cat Bad Luck? ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
