‘Twas 3:30am…
When right in my ear there arose such a clatter!
I sprang from my pillow, all dream-sheep ascatter.
What a sight! My bleary eyes took in the scene:
A cat there suspended on my window screen.
Petite head and limbs first suggested this culprit a
kitten
Until the hugely-swollen tummy belied my suspicion.
What on earth could she be after? A june bug? A mouse?
Nope.
Pregnant Mama (and all her unborn) want back in the house.
Though momentarily startled by the cat and her womb,
I later realized this episode could spell future doom:
Mama Cat learned which window screen hides my bedroom.
