My relatives visited SL after two years and stayed for almost a month. The longest distance they traveled, was from the Airport to our place and back.

"It’s not something to do with cats as compared to dogs. Dogs are ever ready to be content. They can be surreally happy with the basics. Cats feel that they have been terribly wronged by the world." An excerpt from my short story 'Cats and Coffee Pacts' #fiction #cats #coffee

"Cats usually curl up and go to sleep in times like this. If Carry and I were cats we’d still have coffee. We’d still have double cappuccinos, I’m sure." An excerpt from my short story 'Cats and Coffee Pacts' #fiction #cats #coffee

"Cats don’t really care to become philosophers,I believe, from what I’ve seen of them.Though they have nine lives they won’t philosophise about even one of their lives.Maybe having coffee will make cats more philosophical?" An excerpt from my short story 'Cats and Coffee Pacts'

"Cats are magical and they know it and they know how to guard that secret. They are very clever. And they keep evolving in their cleverness. And that evolution is now less a secret." An excerpt from my short story 'A Coffee Bar for Cats' #fiction #shortstory #cats #coffee

"Tom, yes. ‘A tom’, people say. ‘A stray tom’, you may hear. Tom cat. Tom boy. Those are established. But Molly means a homosexual in old British parlance, right? They had ‘molly houses’ in London." An excerpt from my short story 'A Coffee Bar for Cats' #fiction #cats #coffee

"They had ‘molly houses’ in London. Inns and taverns where men could meet in secret to socialise and be intimate. Mother Clap’s Molly House being the most historically notorious.Bygone London’s Molly houses." An excerpt from my short story 'A Coffee Bar for Cats' #fiction #cats

"But no ‘tom parlours’ for the girls I’m sure.Not ever. British hypocrisy at its height I suppose.But maybe the girls didn’t need any such specific establishments.They were indoors.Indoors behind closed doors." An excerpt from my short story 'A Coffee Bar for Cats' #fiction
