That Woman’s Cat, by Bruce Arbuckle

For a while he has been worried about a spot on his chin. He doesn’t think it’s cancerous (he’s done his own research, Dr Google says it’s probably fine) but, like his neighbour’s cat, it’s ugly, and it won’t go away. “Your cat’s in my garden, again!” he shouts when he hears That Woman pottering about. “It’s shitting in my flowerbeds.” She doesn’t reply. She’s either rude or deaf. Probably both. He chases the cat, scoops up the turds with a trowel and flicks them  over the fence. The cat scowls at him while it pisses against his shed door.
