Mother says she witnessed the cutest thing yesterday. She was pulling into our driveway and saw a gentleman walking down the sidewalk with a cat following him. The cat was a beautiful medium coat black cat with sparkling emerald eyes. I’m going to refer to the cat as Simon just because it’s nicer than referring to him as “the cat” for the entire story.
Anyway, the gentleman crossed the street and Simon initally hesitated. At this point Mother wasn’t sure if Simon belonged to him or if Simon was a stray. Simon crossed the street and as he did, Mother called to him. Simon sat there a second or two to consider her offer when the gentleman also called out to Simon. That was all Simon needed to hear and he went bounding off after the gentleman.
Mother thought that was so cute, and called out to the gentleman asking if Simon was his or a stray. The gentleman didn’t answer and kept walking. Simon continued to follow him. If Simon is a stray, let’s just hope the gentleman is smart enough to to realize he’s just been adopted and takes Simon inside. Just like Mother took me inside that one cold day in December when I decided to adopt her.
