Curiosity Killed the Cat

One day, a woman had a child. She did not feel like thinking of a normal name,

so she named the child Curiosity. Curiosity grew up a bit strange. Instead of playing

with toys, Curiosity liked poking at everything. Doors, jars,

clocks, cupboards… anything that moved, rattled, or blinked got poked.

One day, Curiosity found the family cat sleeping on the windowsill. Instead of leaving

it alone, Curiosity poked it, prodded it, and poked it some

more. The cat yowled, hissed, and tried to escape, but Curiosity just

kept going. By the end of the afternoon, the cat… didn’t make it.
