Cat

Let's talk about my neighbour's cat.

How would you describe it?


Cute? 


Demure? 


Nah. 

Don't be deceived by that fierce look. That cat is quite useless.

It's the most timid house cat I know, scared of everything in sight. Sometimes, it's just so comical to see it run away from some apparent "enemies" in fright only to see my neighbour who lives downstairs walking up the stairs.

Once I saw it sitting on the corridor one floor below my floor. Upon seeing me at a distance, it proceeded to dash upstairs. When I reach my door, it was hiding behind some flower pots, giving me a wary and "trying-to-be-fierce" stare.

Sometimes I really wonder what's going through its mind. I see it walking on the parapet outside my house without a care in the world, (by the way, I live on the 13th floor) and at other times, I see it being so frightened by strangers.

Still, this furry creature is still an amusement to watch at times. At least it brings some life to my floor.

Except the horrible calls it makes sometimes early in the morning. Oh well!
