Borrowed Not Owned

Summary:

Mum moves into a new place and discovers a cat, presumably left behind by the former owners.

Chapter Text

Dearest sons,
The move went well. My new house is lovely. Small, yes, but just right for one. It even has a little yard. I may try my hand at some gardening, once I get settled, although one of the local cats might have some say in that.
Sometimes I find a pure, white cat wandering around, as though she (or he) is looking for something (or someone). I hope the previous owners of the house didn’t leave her behind.
Even though I wouldn’t call myself a cat person (our cats we always preferred you two or your father over me), I have tried approaching her, but she skedaddles before I can get anywhere near, but she always returns soon after. It appears I must be content with looking, but not touching.
Love,
Mum
