This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
I look at cat and say soothingly "I will be with you in a moment - I am trying to find who killed your owner."
I turn back to the drawers. I put the oil lamp on the table, and sheath my scimitar. I am opening the drawers one at a time putting the objects on the desk and examining the drawers for false bottoms or ends.
"They are a considerable investment and he has a lot of space left in this one. I suspect the other one will contain some more interesting spells than this one seems to. Perhaps it would even be motivation for a theft if it can't be found somewhere here."

For Dora:
The cat yowls once more and then goes silent and when Dora looks up she can no longer see the black cat's eyes glowing in the lamp light.
Dora goes back to her task of searching the drawers and is taken by surprise as the cat suddenly leaps up onto the table and begins to alternately caterwaul and hiss loudly at her its back arched and its fur puffed out.

For Guilliame:
As Guilliame finishes speaking the sound of a cat yowling and hissing can suddenly be heard coming from upstairs.
[OOC: The stairs are at the bottom right of what Guilliame can see on the map.]
"What in the world is making all that racket?" exclaims the sheriff.

I walk back to the desk slowly and quietly, looking around for a box or container in which to place the cat, picking up some of the bedlinen which I will use to enwrap and possibly truss the cat.
[OOC: Presuming Guilliame goes up the stairs, I have updated the World Anvil maps, which can be seen here.]
Guilliame climbs up the stairs while still carrying the book he was looking at downstairs. [OOC: Which he didn't passed across to the sheriff before the sounds from upstairs occurred.] He comes up into a large, open-plan area that is a combined bedroom, study and sun room with windows on all sides that have all been shuttered for the night. Dora is currently emptying the contents of a wicker clothes basket out onto the bed.
The only light in this room is the oil lamp that Dora brought with her upstairs. It is sitting on the paper and book cluttered desk on which is also sitting a black cat with its fur all puffed up glaring at Dora.

"Thanks Guilliame. I was searching the desk and the cat took exception. I have in mind to catch it and secure it in the wicker basket. But before we do, two questions; is it possible the cat is magickal, and can you put it to sleep with one of your spells?"
"It would be my last so I'm reluctant to use it especially if it is just a cat."
Do a See the arcane spell and look around the room.
Dora sees Guilliame—book in hand—stop at the head of the stairs for a moment and close his eyes. Once he opens them, his attention immediately becomes fixed on the cat on the desk.
For Guilliame:
[OOC: The cat is indeed magical. However, its aura is unlike the cat he saw in Fini's—its aura is less strong.
Guilliame can make an Arcana check to determine if there is a particular school of magic associated with the glow, if you like.]

"I hope that's not like the cat I saw at master Fini's!"
For Guilliame:
[OOC: Please remember to put your posts behind spoilers until Guilliame is actually in the same room as Dora.]
The sheriff scowls at Guilliame's words. "Yes, I remember that incident. One of the watch was almost gutted."
He then raises his voice to a shout and calls out, "Is everything well up there, Handleader Wallus!"

I can't ignore the cat any longer.
I walk to the head of the stairs and call out "Can some-one give me a hand to catch this cat?"
Go to the base of the staircase and look up. "Coming!!"
Moments after she shouts down the stairs, Dora hears Guilliame's voice from the bottom of the stairs: "Coming!"
[OOC: No need for spoilers any more.]
