On a sad day over 2 years ago, Smoke, our past stray master, suddenly, took grievously ill and died.
Being the subservient humans that we are, we diligenty searched animal sheters to find a new master, but then out of the river bed near our house on the coast of California,
(where we sometimes spot opossums, a raccoon or lost dog, even a coyote),
the SPHINX arrived and sat, day after after day, attentively out in our yard with paws out front, watching us (like his namesake, the SPHINX of ancient Egypt, where cats first ruled).
NOW ENTER, this autumn, a new stray, black as pitch, POE, just in time for ALL HALLOWS EVEN.

May the Great Pumpkin bring you a new lord to order you around at this hallowed time of year;-).
How CATastrophic your evening could be.
You may even want to go online and read, "The Black Cat" by Edgar Allan Poe.
