'hannah and her sisters' is not a name for a cat


drive for one hour


park your car in front of a muddy isolated farm


feel worried about the car being stuck forever in the mud when you'll try to leave


ask the first hillbilly you meet if she works there


make a small inexpressive noise when the hillbilly complains about not finding the ashtray or something


enter the cat room


see a piece of furniture with many baskets and cats sleeping in them


notice the poo/vomit on the floor


think about rubbing your face with the poo/vomit


notice a tabby cat who seems alive and/or not too dull


pet the tabby cat


notice another grey cat


try to pet the grey cat and watch her slip between your fingers like an eel


listen to a volunteer hillbilly explaining it might take a little more time to be able to pet the grey eel cat


translate in your mind: the grey eel cat is unpettable for the next 10 years


adopt the tabby cat that seemed alive and/or not too dull


put her in a carton box


put the carton box in your car


close the carton box and deprive the cat of seeing daylight


feel like a butcher


get your heart broken when the cat starts meowing/crying


feel like a murderer


start petting the outside of the carton box


feel like john lennon


notice the cat stops meowing when you pet the carton box


feel like martin luther king


spend the rest of the drive silently petting the carton box with your right hand
