Skywatch
Off in the distance, through the trees, comes the first faint howl in the gathering gloam. In her spot by the fire, the cat's ebony ears flicker at the sound. She looks up, intently staring off into the darkening day, before stretching and padding silently to the window. Standing on her hind feet she delicately savors the night wind before slipping through the sliver of open sash. The howl comes again, lingering as if frozen, floating above the forest then the hills take up the wail, echoing it forward into the valleys. It is closer now....
Happy Halloween, my friends.

Brave kitty! Especially since we all know they hear and see more than we mere humans can.
Wonder what the trees are whispering about? Is it about the great hounds baying at the moon?
