Eliot, I had no idea that this black cat was an intruder of the worst sort! I am sorry that he is eating all of your catnip. That is a sin unlike any other in the cat world. You truly deserve extra Temptations for the heartache suffered over the loss.

Now, I wonder if you'd entertain a nice brohter - to be a partner in crime? Maybe one more like yourself... one that would have been at the screendoor with you alerting the house to the terror outside. You've already mentioned that nobody cares about it! With two of you on the lookout... welll, things might be different!
