“When I crouched down and incited her to charge,” he explains in his book Prince of Cats, “she came at me head-on . . . , but when she leapt at me she made quite certain that she went over the top, pivoting on my head and sliding down my back, without leaving so much as a scratch on my bare shoulders.”
“Nilipoinama chini na kumchochea ashtuke,” aeleza katika kitabu chake Prince of Cats, “alinijia uso kwa uso . . . , lakini aliponirukia alihakikisha kabisa kwamba alienda juu, akiniegemeza kichwani na kuteleza chini ya mgongo wangu, bila kuacha hata mkwaruzo kwenye mabega yangu wazi.”
