("Where has it been seen," said the Cow to the Parrot, "that a representative of the birds made love with the offspring of cats? Where, where has this been seen?"

“Yes, indeed,” the Parrot echoed her, “where has it been seen that the Swallow and the Cat were looking for meetings in the secluded corners of the yard? Holy Mary! Everyone is just talking about it. But I don't want to, I don't want to believe it. Holy Father, is it possible? The cat wants to marry Swallow! Save and have mercy, Queen of Heaven! Amen!"

“Where has it been seen,” said the Dove to the Dove, “where has it been seen that the Swallow was walking with the Cat? After all, from time immemorial: a dove with a dove, a goose with a goose, a cat with a cat, a hen with a rooster. And here is the Swallow and the Cat!

“Yes, well, times, well, morals! Lost respect for the law. End of the world!" Dove replied.

“Just think,” Old Dog whined in Bitch’s ear, “when walking with the Cat, poor Swallow does not even suspect that Striped is only waiting for an opportunity to devour her.”

“Scoundrel,” Bitch lamented, “what else can you expect? It will gobble up, it will definitely gobble up.”

“What an indiscretion, ah-ah-ah,” grunted Drake. - Silly Swallow. It's dangerous and a-moral-but! She chats with the Cat as if he is not a Cat at all. And he is a Cat, and even worse: a striped one. A criminal, you can see by the clothes that he is a criminal.

“Yes, yes, yes. After all, a duck with a drake, a cat with a cat, a hen with a rooster ... ”the Duck agreed.

The trees whispered, too, especially when the wind tossed them:

“Where is this seen? Where is it seen? Where is this seen?

And flowers. Each one of them convinced the Earth:

“The swallow cannot, cannot, cannot be the wife of the Cat!”

And all in unison:

"This is a mortal sin!"

“Our daughter,” said the angry father, “behaves unworthily. She walks with the Tabby cat."

"It's time to marry our daughter," the mother replied.

"But for whom?"

"For the Nightingale. He has already asked for her hand."

This marriage court approved:

“This is the party! The nightingale is beautiful, sweet, sings beautifully and from birds! And where is it seen that the Swallow and the Cat get married, where?

And Parrot:

"Amen, amen, amen!")

AUTUMN

And then came Autumn. Leaves flew from the trees. He took a walk, trying to keep warm, a cold, whistling wind around the yard caught up with clouds. The sky turned grey, frowned. The season has changed, and the attitude of the court towards the Tabby Cat has also changed. No, they didn’t stop hating him, they didn’t stop remembering his criminal past. No. But they stopped being afraid. And miserable gossip and gossip grew into a rumor. Previously, if you remember, the Cat with a single half-open eye inspired awe in those around him. And now? Now no one was afraid of him and everyone loudly condemned his walks with the Swallow. Why? Yes, because the Cat was happy and cheerful all spring. He did not threaten anyone, did not crush flowers, did not raise his hair on end, did not hiss, did not puff his mustache. He became gentle and kind. He was the first to greet those he met, not like in the old days, when he didn’t even lead with his ear in response to the “good afternoon” addressed to him.

Perhaps I will even note that he became kind and generous, and I will try to back up my statement with the most striking fact from his life: the Cat drove out the Rattlesnake when she again deigned to welcome into the courtyard. Everyone who was there hid, even the bravely barking Dane puppy.

And the Cat… attacked the Serpent, preventing it from jumping with a blow from its clawed paw. And she went away and did not appear again.

But the act of the Cat was appreciated only by the Swallow. All the rest considered what happened for the desire of the Cat to look like a hero. The cow, she just regretted that the Snake had been defeated. And Parrot regarded the case as "ordinary bragging."

So the notoriety of the Cat remained so bad. Unless everyone now believed that even though the Cat was bad, it was not dangerous. At least now. He must be getting old and not the same strength, and therefore he is trying to restore good relations with everyone. The parrot even began to harbor illusions that he would become friends with the Striped and be able to use him against his enemies. Well, at least against the drake that weaves all sorts of vile things about him behind his back. The Cat endured the rapprochement with the Parrot patiently (after all, he teaches the law of God to the Swallow), but he left friendly relations. To which the offended Parrot immediately replied with a new insinuation: The cat is so kind because he is hopelessly ill. He is on the verge of death and is ready to atone for his sins.

But in no case do not take all of the above for the wickedness of the world. After all, the notoriety of the Cat was not born today, it is old and rooted. And therefore, how could others understand that the Swallow Cat, who entered the life of the Cat, changed everything at once like that? How could they see a tender heart behind the gloomy gloomy appearance and under the wool that stood on end?

And it was so tender that it poured out in verse on that first autumn morning. Striped wrote a sonnet. Wrapped in his fur coat, the Cat (he was sensitive to cold) counted, bending his claws, syllables and looked for rhyme in a thick dictionary, the authorship of which belonged to the well-known grammarian Anteater-philologist, an academician who received a national literary prize. Yes, the Cat wrote a sonnet. I got a copy of this one literary work Kota from a very serious person who lives away from all the troubles of the court, from the toad Kururu, who, in her free time from catching flies, was engaged in a critical analysis of these terribly bad, according to her, verses. In addition, Toad discovered plagiarism, monstrous plagiarism.
