Raised by the same block

Hoodcats

The three Hoodcats, green-beanie, blue-hooded and purple-headset street cats

Three cats met after dark and never changed the address.

How They Met

The three met where the buses stop running and the corner lamps do not. Green Beanie knew every back gate. Blue Hood kept the middle of the street. Violet Headset heard trouble before it turned the corner. Nobody signed anything. They simply stayed. By dawn, every stoop had a witness and every alley knew the same three faces.

Three Rules

One block, three jobs, no meeting required.

Knows Back Gates

Green Beanie remembers which hinges complain after midnight.

Holds The Middle

Blue Hood stands where everybody can see him.

Hears It First

Violet Headset catches footsteps before the block does.

Same three. Same corners. Still here.
