Title: Shark in Feline Form
Author: charisstoma
Word count: 186

As I recline in the lounger, feet outstretched surfing the internet on my laptop; I see this vertical tail, with a curl that lazily changes shape as it passes, wandering by with the smooth glide of a shark's fin ... a shark's fin if the shark is wearing stiletto heels. The shark is circling back and forth.

The weather has changed, no longer hot and dry or hot and sweltering. It is now cool and rainy and damp. Under the influence of this weather, the warm blooded furry predator returns inside more often to her warmer indoor territory, her little feet cold and wet. Yet this feline shark longs to escape back to the outside wilderness.

Of course it could be that the nip-head is in the throes of withdrawal or it could be that the catnip soothes the restless moodiness that Fall brings to wild sharks in furry costumes. Either way, when the vault of the cat carrier is opened with its rattle of metal on metal, and the plastic container inside removed, the small predator's presence is almost instantaneous for her prey has appeared.
