Circus of Cats

The cold and dreary days and nights of this circus were done. The humans, with their whips, cages and silly clown cars were gone, perhaps dragging some different mountain of canvas to other unloved patches of ground on the outskirts of towns that never quite made it onto maps. 
Now the Circus of Cats went only where suited its performers, namely anywhere warm. The crowds would turn up wherever they decided to perform.
1
Jinx had taken the ringmaster's jacket from its former owner, along with the canvas from which he had fashioned his trousers, in lieu of cash money owed from a final hand of poker on the night they had won the whole enterprise. The whip he had thrown away, no need for it now they were working for themselves.2
Sasha had kept hold of her costumes from their lives before. No matter what the situation, she would never have worn anything she hadn't liked. Besides, most of them were sparkly. No good for the workout before the show, that demanded comfort every bit as much as she demanded style. Favouring pink, which contrasted so nicely with her own colouring, the heart motifs pleased her, the sweetheart of the show.
3 Now the cats of the circus had become the Circus of Cats, in charge, and doing as they liked, as cats of all kinds are apt to do. Feline grace made the most difficult tricks and moves look easy, and yet still they would practice. Sasha trying out new routines, settling spins, twists and turns into muscle memory as Jinx worked on speeches to whip the coming crowds into a frenzy. This tom was a born showman. Mimicry of the blustering performance of his predecessor made her laugh, and would bring cheers from the crowd once they filled the old bench seats. For now, they would enjoy the atmosphere in the tent, in the brief moments while the other cats were carrying out their own preparations, the baited breath silence made their time alone together all the more special.
