inexplicable kitten of doom

othercat requested drabbles based off one of her icons. I have never in my life had a drabble fall out naturally to 100 words, but this one did.

Ficlet to anyone who can spot which one of my characters is talking to Izzy ;)



"Hi!"

"Izzy?"

"Yes?"

"Why are you holding a kitten?"

"Oh – so he's not yours then?"

"No – why would it be?"

"Only he's been curled up by your door all day – I saw him when I went out earlier and … I just thought maybe he'd slipped out our something. He can't exactly ring the buzzer can he? Such a tiny little thing, aren’t you darling?"

"Izzy please – it's a cat not a hand puppet. And it's definitely not mine. You know as well as I do that Bernie would go ape if any of us tried to keep pets here."

I like it. Though they'd better watch out if it's the kitten of doom!

Cute!

But really all kitens are minions of evil.. they just get away with it because they are too cute ;)

I think it's somewhere in reference to Greebo that Terry Pratchett says something about 'if cat's looked like frogs we'd realise what evil little beasts they are ...'.

thank you!
