I grabbed this short story on KU for a bit of an instant gratification read. I was not disappointed. It's under 40 pages so I hesitate to write too much in the event of leaving spoilers. A couple buys a house and find that the previous owner's cat is still roaming the property. They decide to adopt her as an outdoor cat, but Jeffy has other plans.
While not extreme horror, this is graphic and has depictions of animals being harmed, albeit in the form of self defense. I have since directed my own kitty to consider this a cautionary tale if I should pass before he does.
