What are your favourite animals?
Definitely cats. Oh, wait. Maybe not.
Every now and again, I read something which reminds me that, actually, Louis Catorze isn’t the worst cat in the world. You cannot imagine the relief to find out that your cat is only moderately horrendous, as opposed to the absolute worst.
A friend of mine told me about these Japanese street signs, which are exactly what they appear to be: they’re to warn hapless passers-by that marauding cats could attack at any minute.
Now, Catorze can be a marauder from time to time but, in reality, the chances of being accosted in the street by him are fairly slim. Even if you happened to be walking past Le Château at the exact moment of his gadding about at The Front, it’s very rare for Catorze to follow anyone down the street (well, ok, apart from that one time). Plus the odds would be even further against you if you happened to be female.
In Japan, however, the fact that there are so many of these warning signs, and in more than one area, suggests that this is a widespread issue, not just a one-off mishap. This is clearly something that happens a lot, with several cats.
Who are these predatory felines? What do they want? And is anyone tempted to send their bitter enemies over there, with pockets full of catnip, to find out?
