Finish the story begins
with: “He thought he found the
perfect hiding spot.”
Gerry and Tom
“He thought he found the perfect hiding spot.”
Gerry panted slightly as his green eyes peeked
through the fabric. He couldn’t see the
little devil anywhere. He would wait a
few moments before emerging again.
He didn’t know how much more he could take. The screaming, throwing, slapping, pulling
and pinching of his black fur had gone on for days and days. It was a wonder he had any fur left or that
his tail was still intact.
As far as
he understood it Tom was going through the ‘terrible two’s’ stage. Gerry wondered what on earth would happen at
the next stage, providing he survived this stage.

This is such a fun picture and great piece... but poor Gerry!
ReplyDeleteGreat response to the prompt. I enjoyed your contribution very much.
ReplyDeleteSounds like my all favourite TV cartoons: Tom and Jerry. Nice!
ReplyDeleteThat poor cat having to deal with a terrible two! Loved the story Sally! Thanks for sticking with the Mondays Finish the Story challenge and be well... ^..^
ReplyDeletePoor kitty... the little terrible twos are indeed a problem. Great story!! Hope he finds the perfect hiding place!
ReplyDeleteYoung children and cats, not usually a good combination, but the terrible twos, oops, that spells disaster. Well done!
ReplyDeleteCute story!
ReplyDeleteOh Sally - how cute is this story! You are so clever to write from the cat's point of view.
ReplyDeleteI think parents fear the same, well done Sally.
ReplyDeleteAnother toddler in the "terrible twos." I wrote about one with a dog as the "victim." Goodness knows how many animals have lived through the "terrible twos" with their owner's children. Well written, Sally. :) --- Suzanne
