Your other alternative is to get a cat or two yourself, they never crap

I regret to inform you that neither of those statements is really
true. Your local branch of Cat Protection always has lots of cats
looking for good homes but though you should enjoy the companionship
and the vermit free environment you must be prepared for some small
drawbacks too.

Yes. Like the gooey remains of a sucked and sorry mouse, carefully placed
to encounter your bare foot if you need to get up in the night :-}


A bright green very dead frog from the neighbours pond on your pillow?


Never had the pleasure. But my sister - in - law opened her door to a
complete stranger carrying a bucket containing a very large goldfish.
His cat had brought it home, alive, and enquiries amongst the neighbours had
led him to discover they were the only people with a pond big enough for it
to have come from! It lived for six more years.
