The quote this week is 'People who hate cats were mice in a previous life' When Freda and. Eleanor are neighbours and good friends. When they were younger they both wanted a pet and their mums thought a cat would be suitable as not only did they take themselves for a walk you could leave them for a whole day and go out shopping or to visit some friends. This seemed a brilliant idea and both girls were allowed to choose their own. Freda was lucky and managed to get two a brother and sister. Tinker and Tipsy. When Eleanor went to visit her she was surprised to see Freda outside with her two cats.
"Why are you standing outside in the snow with Tinker and Tipsy? asked Eleanor.
" Well, you must have come across the problem of visitors who hate cats, well some have just arrived, the lady is terrified of them, so I had to bring them outside until they have gone"
" Yes, that's something I've found," said Eleanor :it's not as if the cats are viscous or anything, but they have a knack of finding someone who just hates them and they decide to go and sit on their knee. Gosh it's cold, I know I have only walked from next door, but had I known I would have put a warm Winter coat on"
" I didn't have time to get one I had to grab these two and get outside, but I did grab my hat as it was on the hall stand" replied Freda. " Do you think I could come round yours with these two, or will your cat try to attack them ?"
" They will be OK, they all play together in our garden, lets see if if they are OK in the house, if not you can wear one of my coats and come and stand outside"
"Great replied Freda, you know I think people who hate cats must have been mice in a previous life"
