the prodigal

the cats don’t spend much time indoors in this weather, and we try very hard not to worry if we don’t see them for a few days.

we were away for a couple of days at the weekend, and the excellent Kelly at Rascal’s Retreat looked after them. We’ve seen everyone now since we got back apart from Aliss and Mustrum – we try not to don’t worry about Mussie, as he is big enough and ugly enough to look after himself. But I don’t like it when Aliss disappears.

but she waltzed in this morning, chirping away. What I want to know is:

why don’t cat food manufacturers make a “fatted calf” variety?
