There's a tattoo on the inside of her left ankle. That cannot be changed. Though she has exchanged her angry black past for the acceptable pastels of the people-friendly world, reality keeps its hold on her skin. That mark, that brand, that Chinese symbol for "power," tells the heavens that this kitten is not as she seems. A lion's cub, she cuts her teeth in private. She acts tame, but her wild streak will always live on.
