The astronaut/guided missile stands poised and clear-eyed high atop the bookcase ...
"Houston, mission is a go. Ten, Nine, Eight. Abort! Abort! Abort! Missile is examining a bug."
Thwack, thwack.
Back to launching pad; slashy tail; adjust rump for take-off...
"Houston, mission is a go. Ten, Nine, ... Abort! Abort! Abort! Mission being scrubbed on ear and neck."
Our intrepid astronaut/guided missile takes a brief, refreshing cat nap following the urgent bath.
"Houston, tail is slashy, repeat: tail is slashy; rump is adjusted. Mission is a go. Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Blastoff!"
"Whuuuuuufffff!" **Wheeze** "Rotten cat..."
"Houston. Perfect four point landing on Mommy tummy. On trajectory for kibble. All systems are go, go, go. Stand down. Successful mission. Well done, team!"
