Wonderfully clever! I was imagining the narrator as a little boy right down to the Aaagh moment! Faultlessly and engagingly written, this is a strong contender for the contest and I wish you luck! Debbie

    Thank you. I love to write about cats so it's easy to stick them in a story.

I really enjoyed the way this story leads you to envision a sweet young boy protective of his mom, and smoothly flows into a satisfying, humorous and surprising ending. I was surprised a cat is telling the story. Best wishes in the contest.

    Thank you. Cats are one of my favorite animals, and they are excellent judges of character. I can actually imagine a cat doing something like this.

This is cute story and as someone who has a cat as a basic companion and think I'd kick out someone who hurt my baby too. The surprise is that we originate Ly that this was about a child. Cats like to play using their claws and teeth but they usually don't break the skin if they are playing.

    Thank you. Cats can be vicious if they are threatened. Cats are an excellent judge of character, too.

I'm an old sucker for happy endings and this story couldn't have turned out any better, far as I'm concerned. LOL. Glad Fred got what was coming to him. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you. Cats are my weakness and my strength. I have five of them, and they are excellent judges of character.

What a great story. I thought in the beginning you were talking about a little boy. Surprise it's a cat. What a genius you are. You fooled me and probably a lot of other readers.

Great job and good luck in your contest.

    Thank you. That was the idea, to make readers think it was a little boy. Lol

As a cat lover myself - I can only applaud you for this story.
It is just what a cat would d0, and the reaction was spot on, hurt the cat & pay the consequences.

Good stuff.

    Thank you. That's correct. If anyone hurt one of my cats, there would be hell to pay. Lol

It's a good read though I only recognized the subject speaking was a cat more than halfway through. I mean.... dad? Are we speaking Tom or a husband, and if a Tom I guess they can vamboozle away too.

    Thank you. I know several men who consider themselves cat or dog dads. My husband was one of them.

Way to go! Let the reader believe the story was being told by a child and then bingo! it's a fluffy irate cat with it's claws set for battle. Good job and quite humourous.
Smiles, Carol
