Perpetrator Cat
This is the vicious feline attacker who pounced on me after an intercom buzz, causing a scratched eyelid, throbbing headache, a visit to my opthalmologist and untold emotional scarring. It is clear from his beady, calculating eyes, threatening ears and bushy tail that indeed, the loud buzz was merely a pretext for his villainy. J’accuse !
(How to Manipulate a Photo Subject: I set up Malo. Outside of the frame is my finger, making tantalizing scratching sounds on the printer. He swatted at my finger several times but never hurt me. He fell asleep about thirty seconds after I took this photo. Also: about Emile Zola’s J’accuse.)
