Another cat

After being snubbed by a cat a few days ago, I decided to make a second attempt.

I walked towards the friendly neighbourhood cat that loves to loiter around my house's void deck while it was having its afternoon nap.

"Meeeoow.."

It awoke, purred, stood up, and stretch once, stretch twice, and slowly walked towards me.

"What is it gonna do? Is it gonna attack me for disturbing its sleep?" I thought, as I stood there motionless awaiting its next move.

It just walked closer and closer, and finally brushed its body against my leg, and walked around me. I'm glad it's not hostile, and gave its head a light pat.

When I heard someone approaching, I decided to walk away, as i felt a little awkward.

The moral of the story: When in Rome, do what the Romans do. Towards a cat, purr instead of smile.
