Too short Mike. Just getting settled with a fresh coffee to read Developments at The Zoo and it was over. Disappointed.

It sounds as though a feline such as The Silent Assassin may have provided the inspiration for Talking Heads's Psycho Killer

I'm glad you enjoyed the story, Jayne, though I will continue to keep posts to a 5-minute read (Hopefully that won't make you run, run, run, run, run away). As for Psycho Killer, I would not be surprised if Chase's mum or dad (or maybe both) inspired such memorable lyrics.

LOVED it! I've never been a 'cat' person, although I love all animals. I could picture every scene.

It was definitely an interesting introduction to life at The Zoo, Coralee. Thankfully, things got better, though there were definitely still many unforgettable moments.

That you most definitely do, Luis ... though there's only 4 Fridays in November so that's a good thing
