In this drawing of beloved Mars he is looking on confused as Herbie catches a mouse. This is the RHS of the picture. Note his bent whiskers. He has a lovely loud "purr".
He went missing 2 days ago but turned up for a very late breakfast at 3PM. Much relieved. Got him 3 years ago but him & Herbie don't get on. Mars is a "rescue" cat. The lovely pet had had just been left at a Cornish holiday camp and left to fend for himself. Apparently he did not make a very good job of it and at first he wouldn't harm an earwig. In fact he would jump when they moved. He was used to eating fish and chips and sandwiches. Now he has progressed from biting the tail of slow worms to black birds and now I understand a wood pidgeon surcumbed to his hunting skills.
And lets not mention that "rare bird" you got at Pound Dean!
