Bastet: a Petition from my Kittens
684.

O Great Bastet, sorrowfully we miaow to you for help!
A terrible thing has happened to our favourite garden!
It was a lovely jungle, full of interesting Hot Furry Dinners and Hot Feathery Dinners. There were plenty of places to Snooze and some quite interesting sites for displaying Hard Messages. Front and back, this was by far the best rewilded place in the whole street, supervised by young Satsuma-san.
Alas, Satsuma-san’s Personal Apecat has initiated a terrible campaign of destruction by two fellow Quean Apecats. No permission was asked or given!
The brambles, rose thorns and bindweed have been stuffed into large bags. The trees and bushes have been cut back savagely. Large amounts of privet have been cut off the hedges and also put in bags.
Every day, Satsuma-san’s Personal Apecat and her tom-apecat son push a bag full of leaves, shoots and brambles into the Kennel That Moves and drive away. When they come back the bag is empty — who eats the leaves and where do they go? Is feeding the leaf-eaters the reason for the devastation of our rainforest?
We anxiously await your advice, Supreme Queen of Cats.
