The Saga of Nine Lives

This perfectly timed stunt is not easy; the photo depicts an agile black tomcat jumping for his life. According to the reporter, their neighbor intervened to save their dog while the black tabby had to fend for himself. Well, at least the feline made it out alive. Does anyone think that this is the power of the black kitty’s luck at work?

Let’s call the noir feline Salem, a common name given by popular media to familiar cats of witches. Is this ideally timed photo the result of lens magic or dark cat sorcery? We’ll never know. We’re just happy everyone got out.
