Jeff
The bedsit was disgusting, filthy -the mangy curtains barely kept out the flies, there was dirk and grim caking the windows and floor, and something stank of rotting flesh.
Of course, the resident didn't bother cleaning any of this; he wasn't fazed by the stench from the dogs bed as the inhabitant chewed away at whatever piece of meat it had gotten hold of, or the fact that flies were buzzing over what little food and drink there was scattered around in the mess of a room. Grunting, the man hauled himself off of the barely-standing bed and staggered towards the counter, swatting at any insects that remained. Kicking out a rickety stool, he sat down with a heavy grunt and lifted a pizza crust towards his torn and tattered mouth.
"You're not seriously going to eat that, are you?" The snide comment was accompanied by a pitter-patter of paws as a devilish looking cat leapt onto the counter top a little way away from him. "That is the most disgusting thing I've ever had the displeasure of witnessing." Hurling the crust and a can at the creature, which lightly avoided them, the man rose and swore vehemently after it as the snide cat jumped off the counter and onto the floor, high-speed slinking behind a chest of draws. "I thought you were fucking DEAD."
After reaching for one of the many cans on the despicably dirty countertop, he stood, glaring at the space where the cat had disappeared into. A few seconds past, before a light pressure was on his shoulder and the gaunt cat's face was staring in the same direction. The man didn't notice this, fixated on nailing the cat with the can. "So, Jeff, what are we looking at?" The cat swivelled its lamp-like eyes round to stare at the side of Jeff's head, its feline features twisted into a mockery of a smile. There was a moment of total silence, even the filthy dog looked up at the cat and its master.

"YOU FURRY PIECE OF SHIT." Grabbing the cat by the scruff of its neck, Jeff launched it across the room, screaming insults at it. Rippling laughter followed the cat across the room, and the 'furry piece of shit' bounced off the wall and skittered towards the door, waiting for Jeff to notice. Running towards the manky black cat, Jeff crashed into the door, bursting the flimsy wood off of its hinges and falling into the corridor. Squirming out from under Jeff, who had apparently stunned himself, the cat slunk off down the corridor, bathed in a half light.
