When a Siamese mysteriously shows up at the shelter, Dara starts thinking she might be having a break down. The collar the cat is wearing looks like a cheap watch. No matter how many times Dara removes it, the cat ends up wearing it.

Her co-worker insists she's not putting the collar on.

And then one of the other shelter cats goes missing.

Things only get worse when he shows back up.

"The Watch Collar" is a delightful, feline-oriented short science fiction story by Bonnie Elizabeth.
