It was a dark and stormy night. Meredith sat outside looking sorrowful. Maybe they will let me inside their nice dry house if I look sad enough, she thought.
They didn’t.
The next morning after the rain ended Buzz and Velcro napped in the relatively cool morning.
Old Mr. Woodpecker anxiously watched them. He wanted the food in the tray on the fencepost.
He knew about that cat sitting on the ladder, however, and was being careful.
Later after the cat left the dove family ate and ate.
Meredith thought that her people shouldn’t feed the birds. They should only feed her. Maybe if she slept right outside the door all day, she thought, they would come out and feed her.
They did.... All 4 kitties showed up for dinner: Meredith, Velcro, Buzz and the oldest cat Marmalade.
As Meredith ate her supper she thought that maybe her people were not that bad after all.
