Along toward evening Cat scratches at the door and comes in, as if he’d done it all his life. He turns his head away from her and looks like he never intended to get mixed up with family life. Fifty million years earlier the ancestor of the cat family roamed the earth, and he is the ancestor of all present-day carnivores. Her house is a few blocks away, a two- family type with a sloped driveway going down into a cellar garage.
