Fox and cat

This morning a fox lay basking in the new morning sun. It curled itself catlike in front of the shed. It enjoyed the sunshine rays, so longed for during the long never ending winter months. A white cat jumps down from a wall and looks at the fox and gently makes sure that the fox is not woken. It quietly pads back up onto the wall and deftly clambers three leggedly along the back fence. This three legged dance must have been hard learnt as the fence is far too thin for four feline feet. But the cat with knowing ease scampers along and jumps into the safety of the neighbouring garden. It plays in the long grass jumping and skipping at invisible feline fancies. Meanwhile the fox lifts its head and smells the cat filled air and looks around for the cat; nothing there, no cat to be seen. The fox makes a casual look with a move of its head then decides, there is no cat and returns his head back to being snuggled into its body. It enjoys the heat of the sun on its body. The Sun is a welcome friend and like that fox I now sit and enjoy the welcome rays.
