Merde: we have another heatwave this week, with severe weather warnings in London today and tomorrow.

Also: why do 30°C and 35°C warrant warnings but 37°C doesn’t?
This week, Cat Daddy will be spending a whole day babysitting a two- and a five-year-old. I will be teaching teenagers and taking a group of them on a theatre trip. I don’t know which of us will have the worse time – I think probably him – but we are bracing ourselves for the most horrendous week of our lives.
Meanwhile, Louis Catorze will be snoozing in shady spots all day then, when we return home, enjoying ice cube massages. Despite heatwaves being bad news for black animals covered in fur, his week will be far from the most horrendous of his life. In fact, he will have a blast.
Something about this arrangement doesn’t quite seem fair, yet here we are. And I bet you have a similar sort of deal with your furry overlords, don’t you?
