(Inspired By True Events)
By Cal Orey
As a scribe navigates complex temporal landscape, her newly adopted cat becomes a conduit to the past, revealing tales of feline companions from bygone eras. With its keen senses, the cat alerts its owner to an impending seismic event, forging a bond between them that transcends time and space. As the tabby peers into a future time loop, it must confront its own inadequacies and learn to trust its instincts in order to prevent a catastrophic future.
The story revolves around a young orange tabby cat adopted by a seasoned scribe who takes "Gatsby" on a journey through time, visiting the 70s, 80s, 90s, and the 21st century, and eventually, into the future. The feline narrator tells the tale of his adventures, which are deeply connected to his owner’s past experiences and the stories she shares with him about her previous cats. As the cat listens to these tales, he feels a sense of obligation, inadequacy, and a strong desire to prove himself and fill the paws of the author's ghost felines.
