Dinner at my Neighbour’s Place with Higgins and Miggins

Higgins on the Table
Coming home to my neighbour’s to cat sit one night, I had a brown paper bag containing a chicken burger, fries and a can of soft drink. I had just sat down on the lounge and was making myself comfortable and turned around only to find Higgins sticking his head into the paper bag. I shooed him away and ate my burger while he watched with hungry eyes.
Higgins can be a stealthy cat. One time, my neighbour had a friend stop by for a visit and when she was ready to go, she gathered up her bags and asked my neighbour where her chicken was. My neighbour had no idea what she was talking about until her friend told her she had bought a chicken and put it in one of her shopping bags.
“You should have told me,” said my neighbour.
“Why?” asked her friend.
“Higgins will take it,” she said. It didn’t take them long to locate the missing chicken. All my neighbour had to do was locate Higgins and lo and behold, there he was wolfing down the meat. My neighbour was mortified but her friend understood.
