The Prey - A Little Drabble Do Ya

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

His prey was wounded, crouched behind the big rock but not completely hidden from the hunter.  He had managed to scramble away. Watching from a distance the hunter feigned nonchalance mixed with acute senses that told him there was movement.  He groomed his nails, all the while aware of the diminishing life beyond.

A rustling sound caught his attention, he twitched imperceptibly; he wasn't distracted.  The prey was still there, the object of his hunt nearly vanquished.

"What are you looking at?" Napoleon had caught his partner transfixed on something.

"That cat, he's after something."

"THRUSH?"

"One can only hope."

thanks. I was watching Precious and her videos, inspiration followed ;)

I kind of figured she was the inspiration. My kitties aren't hunters. All they do is pounce on each other once in a while.

The only prey Precious has are the squirrels and birds in the video she watches. EVery once in a while she pounces on it and bumps into the screen:)

Oh that's too funny! My kitties have no interest in anything on the computer. Showed them a lot of videos but they could care less. They look out the living room window, that's about it.

Thanks. It pounced on you, just like a cat ;)

I had visions of "Archer's Revenge" until I read what was prey and what was preditor. Very tricky!
