100 Word Challenge for Grown Ups Week# 55

Julia has been plotting this one for weeks, threatening a really tough challenge and even cackling about it. So we have to write the words that go with this picture!

A Cat in Need

Meow,

Dear human lady person who cooks chicken and salmon for me, please come back straight away. It seems I need you after all, because the beer person keeps throwing dry brown things into my bowl, instead of the gourmet delights you so sweetly prepare for me. And now he has done something to my head, because he’s too lazy to pamper me with the silver hairbrush, I have a scarf that smells like rabbit and something from a Christmas cracker over my eyes. He keeps talking about a Cats Protection League and looking at me strangely. Come immediately.

Meow.

About Lucid Gypsy

Gilly Mbachu Goldsworthy is a mum to two kids that are supposed to be grown up and mma to a four year old and a new born baby boy. None of that means that I am grown up though! I love writing – travel and quite edgy fiction – and being an OU student for a degree which remains to be seen. What I do best though is counselling; I’ve been privileged to work with many people through big changes.

    I am struggling here. This cat is in need. I hate cats being dressed up, and am hoping this is a Photoshop job…

  3. sjbwriting says:

    This had me laughing out loud – I never thought I’d read anything that got inside a cat’s head as well as this. I just love the way this cat sees that humans it interacts with.

    The poor little desperate cat left in the hands of an uncaring person. I hope the human lady comes to the rescue soon. :)

  15. Gilly, you’ve done it again! Wonderful cat’s-eye point of view. I especially like “It seems I need you after all” and the “beer person”!
