My black cat is not black.
They merged in their silence and reacted as one to the sudden swift song and heliotrope of wings. She wondered if it was time to do something. The cat made her see sense.
He had to defend himself from this. It just wasn’t cricket. Fair play is good sport, but she was too feline for that. Who ever heard of a cat saying, “Mousey, old boy, it’s been fun, but I wouldn’t want to play you to death.” Still, he was no mouse, and there might be some fun to be had seeing how this cat felt about his inner-hound.
Notes on Cat Opera.
Cat opera differs from human opera, in that it is thematic, rather than following a conventional narrative. A cat opera does not have repeat performances, though strands of previous performances do recur.
The beginning of the cat opera season is normally taken to be the first clear full moon night when the trees are heavy with cherry flowers.
Common themes in cat opera include territory, aggression, fear and the moon. It depends not only on the central performers, but on energy derived from and participation by the audience.
Human opera is, in general, as alien and distressing to feline ears as cat opera is to uncultured humans.
