I Am A Cat

   “I’m giving you one last warning, Salty.” Stormy looked down at me. “You stay out of the bait.” I’d been warned under threat of death, or at the very least, a full body shave, to stay out of the bait this time. The problem is I love fresh squid, and sometimes can’t control myself. Seriously, what did he expect? I am a cat.

    Fortunately, I had a plan. I knew if I played my cards right, I could easily manipulate all four of them, especially JD and Chuck. The bigger they are the harder they fall, I always say. All I had to do was look sad, ask politely, and purr a lot, and all four of them would toss me extra pieces of fresh tasty squid. I said I was a cat – not stupid.
