The Killer Cat

by fionageorge

Nanny, did you hear 'bout my cat? He is getting really fat. He keeps eating things he shouldn't. I tried to stop him, but I couldn't. He eats the tails off from the lizards. He eats the birds, but not their gizzards. He even ate a big fat rat. Now we call him the killer cat. Nanny, would it be really true, that killer cat could eat me or you? My daddy said that he just might, and that gave me such a fright. Nanny, if my killer cat ate us, he might get bigger than a bus. Then he'd get so fat that he could explode, and we'd be free. We might end up hanging from the light. I think we'd be a yukky sight, with blood all over us from my cat. Nanny, I don't think I would like that! When I get home, I'll tell my cat He mustn't eat us, or he'll get fat and 'nstead of being a killer cat He'll be dead, and then that's that! Nanny, we must tell peoples who have a cat, to make sure they feed them good food, so that their cat will never get hungry and then, all peoples can feel safe again.
