RUFUS UNVEILS NEW PHYSIQUE. IT GOES AWAY WHEN HE CALMS DOWN.

A brown tabby stands in a hallway with raised back fur and a puffed tail, looking toward a bathroom where a hair dryer rests on the counter.

Rufus appeared in the hallway this morning looking considerubly broader and accepted several compliments before anyone asked about his routine. He credited consistensy, disiplin and a refusal to discuss his methods with amateurs.

The hair dryer stopped in the next room. His tail began returning to its usual dimensions. Then the rest of his remarkable new silooette quietly followed.

A neighbor asked whether he had lost weight. Rufus said this was his recovery phase, an important part of any serious program. He then demonstrated a stretch with sufficient confidense that nobody mentioned the remaining floof behind his ears.
