I was in a place like a supermarket in town, and near the entrance of that supermarket there was a pet shop that kept only one cat.

It was past 7 p.m., the town lights were sparse, and it was quite dark.

When I looked, the cat was about to get out, so I went inside and for the moment made it so it couldn't get out, but just as I go to leave, the cat dashes out.

I look at my watch and it is 7:40 p.m., and while thinking I have to hurry home, I think that since I'm the one who let it get away I'll somehow find it however late it gets, and search the area.

That supermarket faces a main road, and the road leading to the parking lot goes straight on to the residential area behind. There are no lights in the houses.

The road leading to the parking lot and the main road form a T, and the main road side is like a slope. I walk toward the slope.

On the opposite side of the road leading to the parking lot from the supermarket there is a field, and when I look into it from the slope, the cat is walking in the field. In the direction the cat is heading there are two big tigers, and the cat seemed to be heading toward them thinking they were its family.

But when the tigers threatened the cat, the cat escaped from the field up a ladder propped against the slope, so I caught it and went back to the pet shop.
