I have ordered an ornately
hand-carved wooden sign to hang
above my garden gate. It shall
bear the legend: "Through these
portals pass the ugliest cats in
the world."
Most people boast about the
beauty of their pets. I have been
known, upon occasion, to pass
around a picture of a handsome
horse, a photogenic feline or a
pretty pup; but my outdoor cats
are no temptation to a
discriminating camera.
I did not choose these
nondescript creatures. They were
wished upon me by reprehensible
persons who saw fit to dump
them on my innocent doorstep
instead of facing their just
responsibilities as pet-people.
Maude came to me in this
manner while I lived on my
toe against her bulging abdomen
and held her at bay while she
merrily lacerated my boot tops.
1 hurriedly dumped part of
the groceries into another dish
and allowed her to dine in
solitude while my permanent
residents slunk fearfully back to
their interrupted repast.
A week later Maude was part
of the feline family. She daintily
nibbled on gourmet fare while
rubbing furry elbows with the
oldtimers. Little by little I
became accustomed to the
ugliness of her massive face, but
I continued to cringe as I averted
my gaze from her lewdly
unadoed rear.
In an agony of apprehension
I awaited the not-too-blessed
event that would saddle me with
