#027 Martin the Tabby Cat


"Martin is a fisherman. He’s never happier than when waist-deep off a muddy bank watching a weight bobbing on the current. His favourite subject of conversation is the various merits of different flies, and his life’s work has been the development and testing of his very own ‘wiggletidger’, hand-crocheted from the finest suri alpaca locks. Nothing passes his lips unless it’s on a piece of thinly sliced white toast; breakfast, lunch or tea. That is, every morsel with the exception of his nightly square of 97 per cent cocoa chocolate, which he pops in his mouth and lets melt slowly in its own time." (Kerry Lord, Edward's Menagerie, 2014)
