“There’s something cat-like about
them, though, something I can’t put my
claws on, but honestly, I don’t really
care.”
“Where are they?”
“Don’t know. They won’t tell me
until I’m out of here, but right now,
that don’t fucking matter, because what
does fucking matter is you people,” she
said, stopped, and then pointed a paw
right at me.
“You people are fucking sick! I’ve
never read so much sick shit, and I
really don’t know why your species
isn’t already extinct...” she almost
shouted at me and from there went on to
explain the sick history of humans,
according to AmyStrange, and I must
admit that the evidence is
overwhelming.
Even with just the stuff I already
knew, humans were an evil lot, and that
made me an enemy. I could understand
where she was coming from, but that
didn't mean I had to like it.
“Most of the animals, you people
eat are kept in cages so small...”
I liked to eat meat, but I didn't
like to think about how it got to my
plate. “I know all about that, and yes,
I’m a hypocrite, but not everyone is as
bad as all that shit you’re saying, and
besides, look at your own fucking
species.
“Cats are considered, by a lot of
people, to be the serial killers of the
animal world. All the cats together
kill billions of animals a year,
including baby birds and mice.”
I immediately regretted saying
that last part, because a really
worried look came over her face.
All she said was, “I don't want to
talk about that anymore” and I felt
like I’d won something, but it was
something lousy, like a year of
wallowing naked through shit, on tippy
toes, and also being more than happy to
eat it, like chocolate cake.
Maybe that’s what they mean by
being happy as shit?
Anyway, I decided to change the
subject.
“How...” I started to ask about
the lock on her cage, but as I looked
closer, I noticed that it had a digital
display and already knew the answer.
Instead, I asked, “How old are
you? Do you know?”
“According to the computer
records, my birthday was almost seven
months ago. April first, to be exact.”
