Thutmose’s Purple Collar
The humans are worried about Thutmose’s wandering ways, still. Despite keeping him in, he continues to go off for two or three weeks at a time. Not that the rest of us worry; more room at the food bowls; but the humans seem to like him and want him around. Why? When they’ve got me? I don’t understand. But, then, humans are a strange, irrational species and I’ll never really comprehend them…
Anyway, they have come to the conclusion that the wandering Tut has a second home. They reached this conclusion because having disappeared for three weeks, he put on weight. So, they have decided that he isn’t living rough when he wanders. Their cunning plan is to put a collar on him, despite them not liking collars on cats (none of us wear them). They are putting a tag on with their contact details in the hope that whoever is giving him succour will contact them. Of course, this could result in a tug of kitty exchange as the other home (if it exists) may decide that he is their cat and he is called Tiddles.
Still, they put the collar on last night. A purple one. And I must say, he does look rather dashing… I could almost fancy him myself.
