Story 29
A Doodle of a Cat
My three-year-old son was drawing a picture, so I asked him to show it to me. It was… quite strange and unsettling.
When I asked, “What’s this supposed to be?” he said, “A cat.”
I thought to myself, There’s no way a cat could look like that.
But the world can be a scary place.
Because out on the road in front of our house, there was a cat that looked exactly like his drawing.
A cat that had been run over by a car—crushed and mangled.
