"He can run faster than I can," said Miss Kitty.
"When he's pointing at you, jump at him before he can turn around. If you drag your claws across his nose just once he'll be careful after that to look the other way when he sees you."
"Your plan sounds as if it might be worth trying," said Miss Kitty thoughtfully.
