“When our cat’s away,
where does he go?

A question many of us cat-owners ponder!

Interesting reading this on the day a court in Manhattan has ruled that Trumpenstein's global tariffs are unlawful. What will the tangerine man do now that he's being held to account by the institutions. Watch this space!
