Tales on Thursday

Sometimes beans fink they see fings, or do they know? Us furrys, we see what they can't and we feel what they block out .... Here is a tale we has heard The Mom say, we will let yoo decide if yoo believe or not!

A long time ago when Shadow's boy was a young bean, they had a black cat named Ninja. Ninja loved being an indoor / outdoor kitty. The mom was always afraid for him to be that way but Ninja wudn't stop askin to go out. One dark night in October, she had a knock at da door. A bean neighbor who knew Ninja, said he had bad news.

Mom followed the bean neighbor blindly, to see her kitty Ninja, laying just along the driveway. Sum bean had hit him and left him there. The mom stood there blocking the way as cars tried to get by. She was tearful and wanted to at least give him a proper burial as a whole kitty, not a ::whispers:: mashed one.

They buried Ninja, in the back yard of the apartments she lived in. A few days after she buried Ninja, the neighbor bean said she saw Ninja just outside her window. The mom shook her head and said not possible. The neighbor bean swore it was him though! A year later The mom and beans moved from there.

In her new house, she swore she kept seeing a black cat. She did not own a black cat then. Where ever she walked, just as if Ninja was still there, the shadow walked with her. Yoo see Ninja, always kept a close eye on The Mom. Finally after many months of this shadow, the mom broke.

She turned towards the shadow cat and said "I'm okay Ninja, yoo don't have to watch over me now. Go be with your brother Zeppy (he died of lukemia) and be happy." Tears filled the mom's eyes as she said this, but she knew it was for the best. The shadow cat, walked through the mom's legs and rubbed up against them (so she felt like) and disappeared.

From that point forward, she never saw his shadow lurking in that house or any other place there after.

So kittys, do yoo believe? Do yoo has a story to tell ? If yoo do post it to yer blog or email us yer story. If we get enough stories we can host them on our blog to tell a tale on Thursday.
