Man Tries to Kick my Kitty Friend
February 5th 2008 21:00
I was walking to work and there was my kitty friend, hanging around the top of the stairs. I bent down to stroke him. He miaowed at me and together we sat on the stairs, me stroking him and him miaowing. Someone then walked past us, startling the kitty. So I started to go down the stairs when a man walking a dog went by. The cat stood there and watched the dog while the dog, distracted by the cat, refused to move and stared back at the kitty. The owner tried to shoo my friend away but he wouldn’t move so the man then tried to kick him down the stairs. I shouted something at him but he had already gone. Disgusted, I arrived at work feeling grumpy and, as usual, contemptuous of human beings. One phrase and one adjective kept going through my mind: If only they could speak and Voiceless. I couldn’t believe I had been outraged enough to shout at the man; I normally avoid any interaction with people like the plague. But I was angry – goddamnit! – at the man’s cruelty. I’d hate to think how he treats his dog.
When I was coming home, my kitty friend was again waiting at the top of the stairs. When he saw me, he miaowed a hello at me. I walked up to him and again, we sat down on the stairs. I got to stroke him all along his back. He stuck his bum up at me (which I’ve been told is kitty body language for joy) and then lay on his back and miaowed at me to stroke his belly.
If I was given the choice between spending time with a person or an animal, the animal would win hands down every time.

My next door neighbour is great. She has a dog called Bella and when kitty goes to sit on the top of their fence, Bella goes mad, and my neighbour would come out and tell Bella to stop and explain to Bella that Kitty is a friend, and one must not bark at friends
