neko 猫 a cat
In front of the Temple 円満寺 Enman-Ji in Yushima there is a senbei rice cracker shop.
Every night a huge cat came there and ate many things.
So the owner caught the cat and killed it.
Then he asked his wife to get rid of it.
When the wife came back home, she scratched the skin of her husband's face
and started behaving like a cat.
The husband called some neighbours and finally they got rid of the wife / cat.
Now they heard the voice of the cat . . . miyaoooo, miyaoooo ...
When there was food on the table, the cat came, stuck her head in the bowl
and ate everything, especially the fish.
