The Butterfly and The Cat

Noted Nest

Updated: Oct 3, 2024

By Sruthi Nambiar



A butterfly lands on the cat's nose. It blinks. Once, twice and a third time. The butterfly is still  there, the audacity. It wrinkles its nose, but the butterfly does not budge. It stays motionless on the  cat's nose. A low growl of displeasure escapes the feline. It sits on its haunches and wrinkles its  nose once again. The butterfly stays put, poised and unmoving. The cat tilts its head, confused and  annoyed. A paw rises in the air and falls on the nose.  

SMACK!  

Finally, The butterfly flies away. Delighted, the cat momentarily watches the butterfly's flight before  giving chase. Its sleek black body glistens under the late afternoon sun.
