Cat “Penny
99
By Weenonah Jones
When I brought Penny home a
few years ago I never realized
what a change would take place
in our household. When she came
to live with us she knew she
would be the queen and would
reign supreme. Everyone bowed
to her loving ways. To show her
affection she presented us with
two adorables (cats, of course).
She felt so proud that she was able
to bring us a gift of such magni
tude and I loved her for giving
something of herself for us to en
joy.
But, it wasn't long before I re
alized that I would have to end
this giving of gifts before I would
have the place over-run with cats

of unknown heritage; so, away I
went to the vet for their opera
tions, all three of them. Penny,
Smokey and Fluffy. I gave them
not very unusual names I admit.
They had some Perisan ancestry
but they were not aristocratic by
any means.
Their love for each other grew
over the years. Instead of three
little dishes, they have one big
dish for their food. Such polite
ness in table manners you have
never seen. Never will they take
from another and it is unheard of
to fuss over the food or be too
greedy. While eating sometimes
they will wash each others face
But, that isn't all! They all sleep
together in a box under the house.
Smokey refuses to go to bed un
less Penny goes too. He waits at
the door until I let her out. Oh
dear, such personalities! I should
say, "Catanalities". First, let us
take Fluffy. He is a hunter. He
would rather hunt than eat. almost
that is, out, he is very gentle and
loving. But, not Smokey. He
fights any beast that comes near
and beware to the one so unfor
tunate as to come near to provoke
his wrath. Penny is still, though,
the protective Mother and shows
her courage whenever necessary
when a battle takes place.
They all love a chase. Well, one
day a chipmonk came into the
yard. Fluffy took after him like a
bolt of lightening. He soon had
him in his mouth but not to eat
him but to play with for awhile.
Anyway, such a fun time he had.
To see him try to get away, the

chipmonk, of course, and then to
see Fluffy catch him again, was
something to watch. This went on
for quite awhile. Soon, this little
chipmonk saw his chance to es
cape and away he ran up the near
est tree with Fluffy in wild pur
suit. Not only did he run up the
tree but up to the highest branch.
Poor Fluffy was a disappointed
cat. All he could do was to look
and gaze upward and if he could
speak, I would not want to hear
what he had to say.
Well, things went along very
peaceful, that is, until one night
calamity struck. I will never for
get the wild piercing cat call that
came out of the darkness. I
jumped out of bed and dashed out
into the night to see what was the
trouble. I saw only Smokey star
ing into the darkness and quite
disturbed. Penny and Fluffy were
no where to be seen, so I was
afraid that something had hap
pened to them, but they soon ap
peared and were very happy to
have me console them. The next
night the same thing occurred but
Smokey, this time, had gotten
hold of the intruder, a big black
Tom. When I arrived on the scene
he took off like a bullet with
Smokey far behind. This went on
for sometime and believe me it
was getting on my nerves to say
the least. Poor Smokey was get
ting some bad results from his
fights. I suggested to my husband
that he should shoot him or that I
would be a nervous wreck. This
Tom was indeed a killer cat. One
that was determined to take over
this territory that belonged to my
cats and non other, and reign su
preme himself. One night as the
Killer approached our house my
husband was ready with his gun
to do away with this intruder.
Smokey was there to do his part
and chased him under the house.
There is only one opening so the
Killer could not get out after the
door was closed. My husband
crawled under the house after the
cat with me holding the flash
light. Believe me it was a weird
feeling trying to kill something
and not being able to see what you
were killing. Finally, the Killer
was spotted at the end of the
house and all we could see was
two bright eyes starring at us. My
husband fired away and we were
sure we had him at last, but low
and behold the only thing he
struck was the house which
showed a big hole, wide enough
for the cat to get away. It was a
vexing situation and also laugh
able and indeed ridiculous to see
two grown people after a cat and
to have it end in the cat's favor.
Well, to end this story, the Killer
was killed but not by us. The
owner said if the cat caused that
much trouble he would be better
off in cat heaven, so he did the
job.
All cat lovers and those who are
destine to be lovers of cats will
appreciate the antics of my cats
and to understand the love on will
soon have for them. So, my three
cats and I bid you adieu and hope
that love will continue to endure
and grow between man and fe
lines.
