Thought for today

Near this spot are deposited the remains of one who possessed Beauty without Vanity, Strength without Insolence, Courage without Ferocity, and all the Virtues of Man, without his Vices. This Praise, which would be unmeaning Flattery if inscribed over human ashes, is but a just tribute to the Memory of a Dog.

DK update number 2


This bulletin is coming from under the bed covers.

In a shock move yesterday, local celebrity and style Guru Dessie, was forced to look on in horror as Demon Kitten, also answering to Merlin, launched a sneak attack on the property of our feline heroine.

The claiming of Illustrious One's tree by the offender occurred towards the end of an otherwise quiet day in the Ravensbourne Neighbourhood. When asked for comment, Dessie, once referred by herself as 'Queen of all that she surveys', struggled to contain the anger that this act of infamy has produced. "whats next?! My litter tray?" was the all the exasperated feline of distinction could splutter.

" I was hoping the little imposter would have got stuck or fallen at the very least, but i suppose that would have meant that there was justice in this mixed up world" Dessie was reported to have complained.

Repeated attempts by this reporter to obtain the Demon Cats version of events only reuslted in fast manuovering to avoid prolonged attacks on the fingers.
