She was in the kitchen one day and caught sight of a shadowy movement out of the corner of her eye by the front door. She thought it might have been a mouse and turned back to the stove. Over the course of half an hour she continued to catch these little glimpses of movement and shadow, at one point clearly too large to be a mouse.
She finally turned and saw a fullgrown cat that wasn't a cat--she describes it as a clearly formed shadow of a cat. Suddenly a kid was banging on the door, yelling that my cousin was hurt at the park--he'd broken his leg playing softball. She never saw the phantom cat again.
