Alison I'm enjoying reading your blog - the soup is good.
I've got the image of the cat welcoming you home but this feels like half-a-haiku to me.
the neighbour's cat welcomes me home
(this is what i'm getting)
of course i see that the dash after home might imply that someone else is welcoming you home and then we have the neighbour's cat as an additional image but i don't feel it
away from haiku speculation when i was a boy the neighbour's cat used to climb in my bedroom window and sleep on the end of my bed... but only when the neighbours stayed out a little later at the pub or a party or something - even though the cat had a cat-flap and warm bed inside his own house - he never climbed in if they were home on time...
