Sa Majesté Louis Catorze, Le Roi Soleil, supreme ruler of Le Château, sworn enemy of canine foe and scourge of Ocado delivery drivers.

Qui l’a fait?

Which topics would you like to be more informed about?

Our vet recently posted this on social media, and I want to know more:

Clearly there was An Incident that triggered this post, and I am overjoyed to be able to say, with absolute sincerity, that it was nothing to do with my cat this time. But who was it? And what happened?

Was the guilty party a leadless dog or a carrierless cat? One of each? Or even a dog, a cat and a marauding, psychotic hamster? I am now eyeing every dog-walker, and every random cat that I see, with suspicion. (Not so much hamsters, as we don’t tend to see that many out and about in TW8.)

Would it be too much to ask* the vet for names? Or, better yet, for a short clip of the waiting room CCTV? 

*I, erm, have already asked for both of the above. They haven’t replied.

I suspect that Louis Catorze knows something. But he ain’t telling.

    Maybe the miscreants were trying to overthrow the vet so they wouldn’t get poked anymore.

      Very likely! I want names, though. Names and video!

    My vet doesn’t have a sign like that but the emergency vet has a sign that say “it’s been 0 days since someone peed in the lobby.” The “0” is hung on a peg and can be changed if they would go one or two days without a pet peeing. I’ve never seen any number other than 0.

        I thought it was too but it’s real. She says dogs especially get excited? nervous? and pee on their floor. Every. Single. Day.

            They have a person who comes running out with a bucket and a mop. It may be her full time job!

              Maybe I need to track that person down and get them to spill the beans!

    I bet on a dog fighting with another dog or a cat. Fortunately for this dog, it wasn’t with Louis. 😺

    So ffunny because I instantly assumed you were about to tell a tale of an escaped little black cat with fangs at the vet!! I’ve not been able to read your updates of late due to being overwhelmed by my own circumstances but the other evening I devoted quite a long time to read everything I’d not been able to read from you. It was like a most entertaining binge reading… Almost tempted to do this on purpose from now onwards because it was such a great read, but then when I’m able I just can’t wair to read the latest of that little boy, love him and your writing (and Cat Daddy’s bad words on the subject of the little black fluffy he likes to pretend that doesn’t mean the world to him!)… Maybe you could set up a TV blog show, like Harry Hill and at the end of each series show the public’s most preferred episodes? Now that is a wonderful idea eh?? Don’t worry, if you do it I won’t take the credit for thinking if it but would love something in writing to prove to family and friends that I thought of the whole idea!! Happy to be back in the land of regular reading 😍😘🐈‍⬛

      Oh my word, people do not need Roi TV. Le Blog is bad enough. And no, thankfully he’s never escaped into the waiting room. If he did, I’d be looking for another vet!

          The first guests on Roi TV will be the animals that were involved in The Incident.

              Youve ssold it to me, of course it would have to be an adult programme, you and especially Cat Daddy don’t do ‘chikf’ language!! Don’t you bthink you should contact people like Nick Park for a UK version on Family Guy, I’m so sure this would prove to be a fantastic overnight sensation… After all you and he would make fantastic cartoon characters with Louis playing himself in his real life form, it would just be a natural extension to your daily lives, you would have such a huge following and Louis would be worshipped which is only right and justified in his mind?? Just remeber me when you’re raking in the profits and setting up cats homes everywhere, Merlot and I would gladly live in the Aldington Branch

              Louis does actually look like a cartoon character.

    In the US, doctors have strict patient confidentiality regulations. Not sure how it works in the UK, but it’s possible your vet can’t release the names, photos, or videos of the offending parties for purely legal reasons.

    Maybe you could compromise by having the vet’s office issue a reassuring public statement that the offender was NOT Louis.

      That is a brilliant idea. And hopefully they won’t add “this time” to the end.
