Cat of the Century (2011)
“Murphy Mystery Yesterday’s sunshine gave way to a low-pressure system with steady rain. Harry finished her chores, hung up her dripping Barbour coat, and stepped out of her work boots. The painted wooden floor of the screened-in porch felt cold to her feet. She stepped into the kitchen, where she peeled off her stockings. The work boots had sprung a leak.
After drying her feet with a towel, Harry knew she should clean out the broom closet—a chore she’d put off for two years. It’s amazing how re...sourceful a human can be in avoiding an unwanted fox.
She opened the closet door, studied the mops, brooms, cleaning agents, and shelves with cans, jars, brushes.
Pewter, who’d opted to stay in the living room rather than help Harry with the chores, heard the door shut. “So much for the broom closet.”
Mrs. Murphy and Tucker, coming in to the living room to join Pewter, laughed.
Harry found her moccasins with fleece lining, then called out, “Where are you?”
“We’re hiding,” Mrs.MoreLess
