Letter of the week

Not so cool for cats

I, TOO, have heard a frog squeak (Letters, August 4 andTown & Country Notebook,), although under rather different circumstances. I was awakened in the night by incessant shrieking, so I went downstairs and located it on the path outside. Under a lamppost was a vociferous frog screaming the odds at the trio of cats sitting around observing him (one of them was mine). The cats seemed nonplussed to have this small creature giving them grief, but I picked him up and hid him under some bushes. As it does for Anthony Hull, that sound remains with me to this day.
