: Re: How to write from a cat's perspective? I want to write a short story from the perspective of a cat who wants to kill a bird that extremely annoys her. Just like Tom is trying every time
To write a cat's perspective of things is indeed interesting. However, how much you empower your cat is in your control. In fictional mode, you can even make the cat to be like Tom or Claw (Game) or the cat from Stuart Little. The first step would ideally be to determine the character specific details, how, what, when, to set a routine of the cat's behaviour.
Some questions that you could answer while writing:
- does the cat have special powers?
- what kind of company the cat likes to keep?
- why is the bird annoying the cat?
- how did they first meet? What caused the irritation?
Pick up from these hints to build your story.
Be as descriptive as possible and while you edit, you could choose to keep what suits best.
