Lester's Nemesis

Henry the neighbour has 2 young adult, identical-looking ginger cats.

Now - I don't mind cats, really. In fact, I like them a lot, I think they're mischievous (had to look for the spelling of that word!) and fun.

I had a cat once. Her name was Dominique. But I've told you this story before, surely. Anyway, Dominique was great and she lived for ages, but that was before Lester's time.

Point is, Lester doesn't like cats.

And neighbour's ginger cats are young and bold and agile, while my puppydog is old and half-blind.

Doesn't stop him from defending his turf from what he no doubt perceives - judging from his relentless barking - as an unwelcome intruder.



Sometimes they'll get tired of staring at each other, but instead of walking away, they just settle down into a more comfortable position, right there where they are.
