‘Tis the season to be fighting?
Two days ago, we suddenly heard the sound of ferocious cat-fight from Mr G’s house. There was obviously a huge fight there and my brood was stunned. That evening, we waited with bated breath to see if Mr G would come for supper, and come he did, and we were relieved he wasn’t hurt. This…
