Cats Dream Too

So a flash fiction prompt here from Melissa …

Hello! Welcome to Melissa’s Fandango Flash Fiction Challenge. Each week I will post an image I grab off the internet and challenge bloggers to write a flash fiction piece or a poem inspired by the image. There are no style or word limits.

The image below is from Gülşah Olgun on Pexels.

The image depicts a cat lying in a field with flowers. We see the front half of the cat with its paws outstretched in the grass. Lying in the grass in front of its paws, we see what looks like a mirror and the cat is reflected in it.

If this week’s image inspires you and you wish to participate, please write your post and use the tag #FFFC. Please create a pingback to this post and/or manually add your link in the comments. I hope it will generate some great posts. Don’t forget to stop back and read/comment on the posts of others. Thank you for participating!💅🏻

“Marty, is that you?”

“Bill? Or should I say “Snookems? (hehehe)”

“Shut up Marty, you just got lucky to have yours name you something cool”

“I know, Sly for Sylvester IS pretty cool, something about a cartoon cat”

“Yeah well, and don’t get me wrong, I love her to death, she’s my world, but I got adopted by a 10 year old girl”

“Well, how have you been Bill?”

“I’m good, Rachel, that’s the girl, she’s 12 now, has finally stopped dressing me in human clothes with hats, was never a fan of the hats, she takes me on walks on a leash though which is fantastic, sometimes she even lets me roam … You?”

“Good here too, Bobby, that’s my human, has the other human, coincidentally named Rachel by the way, buy me treats and we’re in pretty good shape, plenty of stuffed mice to knock around the apartment and look silly with”

“Ahhh, that’s great, glad to hear. But let me ask you, what’s with the mirror? You kind of look like me?”

“Oh, that’s because I am you Bill, just in another reality”

“Really? Well, that’s kinda weird”

“I know huh?”

“Cats dream too Bill”

“Seems so. Well good to see you again Marty”

“You as well Bill, or “Snookems”

“Shut up Marty!”

“hehehe!!”
