Visitor

Last night, returning from a visit to my sister's place (oh, to be a real adult with a fireplace!), I climbed the porch and walked toward my back door. A streak of fuzzy black lightning flew past my feet, down the steps, and vanished into the alley behind the old carriage house.

Meerakai are always terribly interested in sniffing my shoes when I come home. I guess it's their window to the outside world. What do they smell? Maybe where I work, the sidewalks outside the house, the gas pedal of my car...the scent of neighborhood kitties??
