the little black cat
keeps up with them step for step
smiling all the way
We saw them approaching from up ahead and said to ourselves, “Hey, is that a cat on a leash?!” Well, that was a cat all right but there was no leash.
The cat was simply walking along with them, waving its tail in and out thru their legs, stopping from time to time to roll over on the ground. She was the cutest thing, all black with brown whiskers, a little cat wild in the woods, rubbing up against our legs, rolling on the ground, head-butting for pets on her head, meowing and looking up, wagging her tail and smiling….and so were we.
No, she wasn’t ‘their’ cat. She had simply popped out from the woods onto their path and was following them along. They intended to take her to an animal shelter for care and adoption. 😻🙏
