A tail of love…

Bagheera and his girlfriend.

Let me tell you something about my garden in Oxford. Firstly, we were told to “keep the grass in good condition”. “The grass” consists of dandelion leaves and occasional tree sprout (courtesy of the family of squirrels that live in the tree next door). Secondly, it is a battleground for upwards of three cats. Who knows what they are fighting over; the territory is far from classy and, whilst I love cats, we don’t leave any treats out for them. The battles are sometimes fierce and scare me when I’m trying to take a shower. Actually one of them popped in through the bathroom window once… we worried that it was a clever thief sending in a camera on a cat to assess our wealth. He didn’t come back, clearly because we’re poor as pennies.

Anyway, today we were visited by one of my favourite felines, Mister Bagheera (on the wall). As you can see, he is a big black cat, somewhat akin to a baby panther. He is my favourite because he provokes a round of Disney’s The Jungle Book songs. But today he was a particular ray of sunshine because he brought with him a beautiful little girlcat. Clearly the panther of the back-garden has proven his brute strength and won himself a lady friend.

Happy days!
