footfall of heavy boots. They grew louder as they approached her bedroom.
“Mrs. Brown, This is the police! Are you in there?”
“Yes, it’s me. I’m alright.”
“Open the door, please.”
Eunice complied and opened the door. The four officers had their weapons drawn and their flashlights on. She then heard the voice of other men.
“Kitchen’s clear. Living room, clear.”
The officer closest to Eunice spoke to her. “Did you get a look at the person who broke in, Ma’am?”
She looked at him as if stumped by the world’s hardest trivia question. “No, actually I didn’t.”
“Was it just one person or more?”
Before she could answer, there came another question.
“Was this a large person or a small kid?”
Eunice was confused. She put up her hands. “Look, I told you I didn't see him. He could've been skinny or fat. There could've been one or more, I don’t know. All I know is he broke in through the patio glass door, then you guys showed up. That’s it.”
Just then Eunice heard the sweetest sound she’d heard in the longest time - “Meow.”
“Rosie! Come here, darling.”
Eunice picked up her cat and let it cuddle against her neck.
One of the officers in the house called out. “Hey, Sarge. The patio door isn’t broken.”
Then a second officer shouted. “Come check this out in the bathroom. I think I found our burglar.”
Eunice accompanied the officers to the bathroom where the floor was covered with broken glass. Remnants of her favorite glass pitcher lay scattered from wall to wall.
Eunice frowned at the Sergeant.
“So it wasn’t a burglar after all? Wait don’t say it. It was a cat burglar.”
The officers erupted into laughter.
Eunice smiled. It was something she didn’t do often with strangers. “So if it was Rosie, how did she get in the house?”
The Sergeant pointed through the opening in the wall to the night sky. “She came in through the bathroom window.”
