Succinctly Yours - A Microfiction Meme #58



Grandma at Grandma's Goulash provides a picture and a word prompt for this Microfiction Meme and the rules are use the photo as inspiration for a story of 140 characters OR 140 words.


Want more challenge? Use the word of the week in your story. This part is optional.


This week's word is TORRID here's the picture and my offering, using the picture and word of the week  in 140 characters, including spaces and punctuation.



Being groomed by her friend,Torrid,was mostly bliss.

Fluffy just wished she would be a little more careful and not stick a claw in her eye!

    I guess they don't have the paws for grooming, do they.

    Great writing. My cat tries to do something similar to my wife's dog.

    Love this .. and if Torrid grooms the way Rose does .. poor Fluffy can expect her ear to be nipped!

    Very clever to use torrid as the kitten's name. We were thinking along the same line. Ah, great minds!

    Ah yes, the painful claw in the eye! I can certainly see why she'd wish not to have that happen!

    Cute picture!

    I hate it when that happens. Perhaps Fluffy could suggest to Torrid that she get a good manicure.
