I was destined to rule this planet. We had discovered it centuries ago scanning
galaxies for a favourable habitat, as our sun, expanded into a red giant.
Explorers had already made forays to the third planet that
circled the yellow dwarf and observed it’s simple residents.
On landing I transformed my craft into a local carrier. I sat on it retaining my shape, to monitor their
reaction to a superior being like myself.
I am pleased to report that they have fawned over me though
my translator is unable to decipher noises emanating from this four legged creature
approaching me.
I don't know if this is the purrfect alien cat story that I could come up with but I am letting it loose.

I'd love read what you think about this post...
I always knew cats would one day rule the planet. This explains it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Iain. Those alien overlords need a lot of pampering.
DeleteThis explains everything. And it is the purrfect alien cat story.
ReplyDeleteThanks Gabi and he is fur real you know.
DeleteSmart alien to take on the shape of a cat...
ReplyDeleteThanks Dale, despite his shape I think he is a fur-midable opponent.
DeleteIt was purrfect alright!
ReplyDeleteThanks Violet, more paw-er to your support.
DeleteDear Subroto,
ReplyDeleteIt makes purrrrfect sense since cats really are aliens. ;) Good one.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks Rochelle, with these aliens you can't stop that loving feline.
DeleteI think our little alien visitor is about to get a close encounter of the doggie kind :-)
ReplyDeleteAll that time spent observing humans, they should have mapped other species too :-)
DeleteAh, the ultimate battle is about to commence. My money's on the cat.
ReplyDeleteAn alien cat with access to advanced technology. That dog better run away.
DeleteWell, they are otherworldly! Nice tone to this, well written
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn, I am glad you liked it.
DeleteThat's a most ingenious take on the prompt. You set up the final cliff-hanger effectively. The cat will win, but in doing so will blow his cover; it may be a Pyrrhic victory.
ReplyDeleteMight need to set the phasers to stun. That cat's smart (I mean that alien). Thanks for reading and commenting Penny.
DeleteI knew that the cats are alien.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably documented in the X files somewhere ;-)
DeleteCats are silently waiting the return of their leader, and then they will rule us for sure. You have captured their nature so well.
ReplyDeleteI fear they have already started ruling us :-) Thanks for reading and commenting Fatima.
DeleteFour-legged creature? Probably a dog. Maybe the cat should learn to speak dog :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments Linda. Cat's prefer that others learn to speak Cat :-)
