As a writer, what tale do you think the little "M" on the foreheads of Tabbies tells us?

Question

I like to think this ties back to Kipling's "The Cat That Walks Alone", but can't find any connection. What's the story you find or would create?

Answer 1

What Kipling doesn't tell you is that the cat is indeed a tabby in "The Cat That Walks Alone."

This particular tabby also had a lovely "M"-shaped marking on his face, which we find out in the course of the story (without Kipling actually stating it) stands for "Mouser."

Is it also any coincidene that by proving his skills as a mouser for the woman that the cat also earned himself HIS favorite "M"? :)

Answer 2

I'm a little less romantic about it - I think, on my cat, it stands for Moron. He's not too bright and a bit of a whiner.

Answer 3

I like best the story from Egyptian times - Mau

Answer 4
