The Case of the Missing Tail

Now I don't want to blame any one dog in particular, but recently (and I am willing to accept that this just may be a coincidence) while we were dog-sitting Lilly for our friend Carla our cat Moushi's tail got mysteriously broken. The vet told me it looked like the result of a bite and he wanted to amputate the thing down to a stub as he thought it would look prettier. I informed him I preferred to think of Moushi's comfort and balance rather than worry about my social status reflected through the cuteness of my cat's tail. Luckily for Moushi (aka "Moushi-Mout-Mout") my persistence paid off, and he ended up only loosing 1/3 of his tail and has everything bandaged up nicely like this:

Twin brother Pousse (or Poes if you're Dutch) is less than impressed with Moushi's new look, as you can see here:
While I know many people might say that it's a bit unfair of me to blame Lilly the visiting dog for poor Moushi's predicament since we too have our very own dog (Mooie who replaced Koumba after she met with a car one dark night). In an effort to clear any confusion though I thought I'd let you make up your mind by having a look at the two dogs in question. First up is Mooie, who clearly could never harm a poor kitty tail:



And then there's Lilly:









Well OK, so she doesn't look exactly like that, but you get the picture.
