The Singing Cat (Part A)

“Ooh lalalala”  Madame Sophelia began humming as she prowled around the living room.

“Ooh Lalalalala….” Madame Sophelia sang louder. She’d had a wonderful week last week.

“Sophelia stop it!” Mary begged her.

“But I’m singing? Dont I sound great!”

“Ooh Lalalala” Sophelia continued.

Ooh hehehehe” Sophelia started giggling when she noticed Mary was trying to block her ears.

I’m walking on sunshine… woo hoo...” Sophelia sang.

“Sophelia, that’s not even the beginning of the song.” Mary sighed.

I’m walking on sun… huh?” Madame Sophelia was now confused.

She was imagining a group of mice staring at her. It made her a bit self conscious, but also quite hungry.

“Mary… I don’t think I’m feeling that well.” Madame Sophelia told Mary.

And now Mary was worried!

What was wrong with Madame Sophelia?
