Return of the Detective Inspector
When he returned home that evening on foot, after buying Millington and the CID team a quick round in the pub, the black cat, Dizzy, was waiting for him, as usual, atop the length of wall. Automatically, Resnick reached out a hand to stroke the animal’s glossy fur, but Dizzy turned away from his touch and, tail raised, presented Resnick with a fine view of his backside as he ran along the wall and then sprang down toward the door, anxious to be fed. A neat encapsulation, Resnick thought, of man’s relationship with cats.

Ah — that’s my son’s cat, Spook. She’s a mean little thing, so I’ve been told. High strung.
