It was two o'clock in the morning and it was very dark.
Mr Thompson woke up his wife.
'Irene,' he called softly, 'the baby's crying.'
Mrs Thompson sat up in bed and listened.
'That's not the baby', Jim,' she said. 'It's a cat.'
'It can't be,' her husband said. 'I'll go and look.'
Mr Thompson got up and went to the window.
'You're right, Irene,' he said. 'There's a cat in the garden.
Listen to it!'
'You must stop it, Jim,' Mrs Tompson said. 'That cat will wake up
the baby.'
'What can I do?" Mr Thompson asked. 'It's very cold. I'm not going
into the garden.'
'Throw a shoe at it,' his wife suggested.
'I can't do that,' Mr Thompson answered.
'Why not?' his wife asked. 'Can't you see it?'
I can see it very well,' Mr Thompson said. 'But I can't throw a shoe
at it. It's sitting on my greenhouse!'
