The coastal cats knew the bay better than any human.
They knew the way to treasures, and where to bargain with the sirens.
A silver ring, a copper bracelet, hair-pins, pocket change or socks, these were the things the cats knew to bring, and in return the sirens brought fish and turtle eggs.
Even kittens knew the where and how by the time they could scamper.
How,you ask?
Their ancestors sailed with pirates of course!
