I Met A Star

I thought I ought to get in some practice for the marathon as I had volunteered to participate so I went out over the field and intended to run a few laps to build up my stamina when I noticed a two legs there also practicing. Not just a two legs but THE two legs. The two legs that my carer says has now taken over from St Biffa of Gateshead [Cheryl Cole] as the most adorable thing in his television box! It was Jessica - I even know her name!

I sort of sidled over to where she was jumping with some of her friends and she spotted me .

"Oh look a lovely little cat!"

She bent down towards me and I didn't hesitate to go forward and roll onto my back in front of her.

"Oh Jess looks like you've got another fan!" one of the friends shouted rather embarrassingly.

Her hand came out and rubbed my tummy I started to purr and I reached out to hold her hand; then I remembered my claws and drew back and just gave her a sweet smile.

"Watch out Jess looks like he's going to be sick!"

She pulled away. I stood up and rubbed round her legs still purring loudly. She seemed to like me.

"Perhaps he wants to come home with me" she purred back about me. I was amazed I was being adopted by Jessica, That's when I thought about my personal shopper and my carer and I thought I ought to let them know.

I turned and ran for home.

"Looks like he doesn't want to live with you after all Jess!" I heard one of her friends call out.

I raced home and found two legs in his chair. I pulled at his trousers and kept crying at him until he got up and followed me.

"Where are we going? What's so important?" he kept asking. I couldn't say a word.

We reached the field and it was empty. Just then I heard a car start up and drive out of the car park. I looked up and there was her face looking at me and waving. I wanted to wave back but my paw wouldn't life. I ran after the car but it sped away and round the corner. I made my way back to two legs

"What was that all about? Who was that? Were they annoying you? Is that why you brought me here?"

Aren't two legs daft? They never understand something unless it is spelled out to them. I was about to embark on the story when I heard a car coming into the car park. I looked up and it was that car. She was in it!

I raced over to it and as the door opened I jumped in and into her arms. She carried me out and over towards two legs.

He was all flummoxed as he recognised Jessica at once.

"Is he yours?" she asked

"Yes yes " he stammered reddening in the face. "Has he been annoying you? He shouldn't be out over here. He's got all this stuff going on about feline Olympics and he is always out with the other cats practicing or racing. I'm sorry if he annoyed you."

"It's OK he didn't annoy. He's so sweet he just came to see me. What are the feline Olympics anyway?"

Two legs did a pretty fair job of explaining what we have been doing for the last few weeks and Jessica listened with interest.

"OK," she said finally when two legs drew breath. "Tell you what I'll do. I'll come along to your closing ceremony when you have finished and you can see my medals if I can see yours.

I nodded my head vigorously.

"Look he understands" one of her friends said rather sarcastically I thought.

She bent down and kissed me.

Jessica kissed me and is coming to my closing ceremony.

I'm going to wake up soon. I'm going to wake up soon. I'm going to wake up soon.
