Retired Tomcat Receives First Toy. Takes It Everywhere.

Walter, recently adopted and now officially retired, has received a small stuffed carrot. It is his first personal posession. He has been taking the ownership part seriously.

The carrot attended breakfast, an inspecktion of the washing machine, and a nap that ran considerably past its scheduled finish. Walter retrieved it before changing rooms, although nobody had suggested it might be left behind.

His new household reports that accomodations are going well. There is suffishent room on every cushion for two. This morning he brought the carrot to the window. Apparantly it should see the birds.

Fiction & satire. These cats and their scandals are invented.
