Life with a cat

Tigris

Some time in the middle of the night.

Woken up by the sound of my cat crashing around the house.

A few minutes later.

Same.

A few minutes later.

Woken up by my cat miaowing loudly to announce that she’s dumped a dead animal by my bed. I kick her out of my room.

A few minutes later.

Woken up by the sound of bones crunching outside my door.

A few minutes later.

Woken up by the sound of my cat throwing up.

Time to get up.

I repeatedly hit the snooze button, knowing that when I step out of my room I’ll encounter the site of a massacre and a failed dinner party.
