My cat the genius

mstakenidentityI was getting dressed for work this afternoon and had just pulled on my jeans but not done up the fly. Puck reared up on his hind legs and, purring like a maniac, dug his claws into the waistband. He seemed surprised when they came down.
"Oi" said I and picked up the still madly purring bundle, "I'm trying to get ready" I was facing the mirror in our bedroom and thought I saw a pimple on my cheek, so moved closer to the mirror to inspect. I was happily mistaken, no pimple in sight. I looked down at the cat in my arms. Puck had ceased purring and was staring into his own reflection, making a noise somewhere between a growl and a yelp. I put him down "It's you, you dolt" Puck moved forward slowly- so did his reflection. He really did yelp when he saw the "other cat" advancing and scarpered, hiding on the other side of the bed, where he stayed until I'd dressed and was leaving the room.
Clever cat.
