A short story to be written in 240 characters or a little less, for the Freewriters community to #ZapFicMonday contest. Prompt: “bad"
“The cats' pact”

When a cat bristles, it is because it has sensed a ghost. A long time ago, they made a pact that no ghost could take a soul without first counting all the hairs on a cat. This is their way of protecting us so that nothing bad happens to us.
