Why Dogs Chase Cats?
A Virginia Folktale
Re told by
S.E. Schlosser
Once
long ago, Dog was married to Cat. They were happy together, but every night
when Dog came home from work, Cat said she was too sick to make him dinner. Dog
was patient with this talk for a while, but he soon got mighty tired of fixing
dinner for them both after a hard day's work. After all, Cat just stayed home
all day long.
One
day, Dog told Cat he was going to work, but instead he hid in the cupboard and
watched Cat to see if she really was sick. As soon as Cat thought Dog had left,
she started playing games with Kitten. They laughed and ran about. Cat wasn't
the least bit sick.
Dog
jumped out of the cupboard. When Cat saw him, she stuck a marble in her cheek
and told Dog she had a toothache. Dog got so mad at her, he started chasing her
around and around the house.
Dogs
have been chasing Cats ever since.
