Greetings, Monkeys. Sparta Puss here. I have control of the pooter box while the hairless apes are chillaxin’. I’ve been hearing a lot about a dog called Pavlov who trained his fur-less monkeys to give him food whenever he pressed a lever. Not bad going for a dog, but a bit too complicated, I think. I’ve trained the brainless apes just by raising my left paw. The she-monkey is the most affected; she makes strange noises like “squeeeee” and gives me a bowl of milk. Result! The he-monkey is a harder nut to crack, so I have to do the saucer-eyes as well as the paw-in-the-air. Then I get my ears and head scratched. That’ll do nicely.
I’ve been on a roll this week and brought in two quite large rats. I dumped them on the floor in the living room. The he-monkey was out both times and the idiot she-ape ran around the place squealing and waving her arms. Oh, how I laughed. What’s all the fuss about? They were dead! Too big to keep alive for some sport – rats that size can be dangerous so I despatched them quickly and dragged them in through both cat flaps, through the house and gave them to her. hehehehehehe.
So she’s storming around the house accusing me of being a psychopath – whatever that is- and berating herself for not being a proper feminist because she’s waiting for the he-monkey to come home to dispose of the rats! Which he does – in the compost bin. Why don’t they eat them? They taste good, with a spot of that nice custard I steal off the table when the monkeys are not looking. 😀
That’s me above BTW. The she-ape’s been daubing with some dirt-in-a-stick again.

Ha Ha Ha! Ginger Arthur would like to give a paws-up to Sparta Puss, and is making a note to request custard the next time he brings in a plump tasty-crunchable.
(‘Tasty-crunchable’: otherwise known as Rat, to you and me. Also applies to smaller rodents but rats are the tasty-crunchables of Arthur’s choice, too.)
ewwwwww! How can creatures so sweet and fluffy and cuddly be such a psycho?!
I know, but he loves his Mummy 😉
Can’t really mind the dead rats, myself – would rather have dead ones in the compost than live ones in the chicken run AND the loft… which we used to have before Ginger psycho ate them!
I must admit, these large dead ones are an improvement on the smaller, lively ones she kept bringing in during the summer for me….
haha.. now I get your comment on my post Rosie.. this is GREAT !
Thanks Helen 🙂
Fabulous Sparta. Rats with custard? You should start your own blog….I’d follow you 😉
Don’t encourage her – she’s pretty much impossible to live with as it is. The phrase prima donna was invented for her. 😉
thats totally plausible
She knows it! 😉
