Evil magic kittens

[bondi beach]

Here's one for you, Fred. Maybe it's a gay magic kitten?

From the National Novel Writing Month folks:

"Evil Magic Kittens"

"Ok so I have this half baked idea about adding a kitten into my story somewhere (to confuse a profesy, for sheer cuteness, and because she won't like the werewolf in book 3)

"The problem is...I don't know what to do with it. I've thougth about familiar, ghost kitty, shape shifter in disguise,...but nothing I really like.

"So basically I want all your ideas for magical kittens. Do you have a magical kitten in your nano maybe?"

A few months back, and right before we were about to move 1,500 miles to a new state, my wife got lonely and begged for a kitten.  I was like, "No way!  No more pets!"  She was like, "Waaaaa!  I'll take care of it."

Those of you who are married will guess how this played out.

Now we have a horrible little kitten.  I hate kittens.

(He's watching me now, as I type this.)

(For those who think I'm some dark evil monster 'cause I hate kittens, know that I volunteered for several years at an animal shelter.  I paid my dept to god's little critters.  Anyhow, during such a time, the cuteness of kittens wanes and the fact they are needy little freaks with five pointy ends becomes quite evident.  Stupid kittens and their claws and teeth.)

Anyhow, for the story, I suggest the kitten be the villain of the thing, the source of all misfortune.  Let the heroes cast aside the meager lives to bring down the dark kitten lord.

For the record, I don't mind cats.  Cats are cool.  Please adopt a cat.  They need it.

I'm not a fan of cats as pets. LoLCats or Caturday but for a day and a
half I took an interest in cats that look like Hitler.

I put a kitten in a story once. A man knocks on a door and a little
girl answers and he says, "Is this your cat?" and the girl nods. He
says, "Get it off my arrow."

I generally avoid cats in fiction and if the only reason someone wants
to put a cat in a story is to be be shocking, make it a dead one. A
photo of a kitten would work better. Lots of possibilities there. I
could be biased after watching Alien at a tender age. I always
wondered what that meeting was like, "I got an idea...Let's take the
cold, ruthless, pragmatic Ripley character and send her after the cat
whom she hasn't shown the tiniest bit of interest in for the first 90
minutes of the movie." and "Won't people notice how dumb that is?" and
"Nah...Just put Sigourney in her underwear, remind them she's a girl."

Apparently they had a dog behind a screen and got the cat's reaction when they suddenly raised the screen. Not explained is how stupid the cat had to be to not know there was a dog there.

That apparently was the motivation for those final shots of her. The director is reputed to have said, "We have to have some sex in this movie," and Ripley in her underwear was the solution.

My NaNoWriMo word count total is 50,212. I'm done. I'll bet my novel has more sex in it than your NaPoWriMo thing, though.

Hey! I finished my NaNoWriMo about a week ago now and it's pretty
bland, lots of adolescent humor.

My NaPoNoMo story is available for viewing here and there's very
little sex in it so far:
