"Moggy Musings" [Archived material from Boy the Wonder Cat]

A weighty musing:
According to ABC News 33% of all cats and 41% of all dogs in Australia are overweight. I can purr with satisfaction because I am the same svelte shape I have been for the last ten years or so. Of course it is a different matter for my little canine friend, Veronica Lake - she has a very noticeable middle-aged spread. More walkies is the way to a long life, Veronica!
A power of the press musing:
On Friday 13th June The Daily Examiner ran a story about a three-legged female three year old Staffy-cross named Missy who had run off after being hit by a car in South Grafton. A week later Missy was recognised by an Examiner reader and reunited with her owner. A happy ending all round.
An if pets could vote musing:
A recent AP-Yahoo! News poll found that pet owners favour McCain over Obama 42 percent to 37 percent, with dog owners particularly in McCain's corner.
Wonder what their pets think?

A fly away home musing:
Diesel the Northern Giant Petrel rescued on Wooli beach at the end of May, buddied with another petrel by the Australian Seabird Rescue (Ballina), has been released back into the wild.
Congratulations to rescuers Erin Brady and Kasia Stack for alerting Clarence Valley Wires to Diesel's plight.
