The Advantage of Having a Thick Fur Coat

is that no matter how many times your enemy swipes at you, all they get is a little fur. Our cat Gus got into it with Buzz (the neighbors cat) this morning. Growling, hissing & spitting to beat the band, so I went outside to put the fear of Chuck-a-doodle in these two miscreants. Buzz was not intimidated. Gus slunk inside, but he left a big circle of bits of fur on the lawn. Mom inspected him when he came in and he did not seem to have suffered any real injuries. Actually couldn't even tell that he had lost any fur, but then he has always been a very furry cat. Gus is the only one who ever mixes it up with Buzz. Never hear diddly from Iggy.
