THE NEW KITTEN
It was both fortuitous and fortunate that Micah was in the courthouse that day. Otherwise, he never would have known about the child. He was there to meet with a were who had unknowingly committed some petty offense and had been promptly thrown in jail by St. Louis’ finest.
He knew immediately that the young blond boy was a were, even a feline one. He just wondered why he was here in the first place. It was rare to see a child. Weres were seldom able to bear children so this one must have been infected.
“Excuse me…”
“What do *you* want?” The woman was visibly hostile to him.
“Why do you have that child in custody?”
“Because he’s a were and his parents abandoned him and I’m trying to find him a foster home. What’s it to you?”
Micah took off his glasses and showed her the golden eyes of a cat.
“Ohhhh.”
He smiled her.
An hour later, he and the little boy left the courthouse. Even though custody was pending, he felt sure that young Peter would be given to him. What would he say to Anita? ‘Hi darling, would you like to see our new kitten?’
