Have you read the one about the lucky saucer? Here it is\u2014still containing the British terms and spellings: \u201cIn front of the local butcher\u2019s, an art connoisseur noticed a mangy little kitten lapping up milk from a saucer.\u00a0The saucer, he realised with a start, was a rare and precious piece of pottery.\u00a0 It was, in fact, a collector’s item.<\/p>\n
He strolled into the store and offered two pounds for the cat. \u2018He’s not for sale\u2019, said the butcher.<\/p>\n
\u2018Look\u2019, said the collector, \u2018that moggy is dirty and scabby, but I\u2019m an eccentric. I prefer cats ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/smokeysidetable-300x225.jpeg\")
that way. I\u2019ll raise my offer to ten pounds.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u2018It\u2019s a deal,\u2019 said the proprietor, and he pocketed the ten immediately.<\/p>\n
\u2018For that amount of money I\u2019m sure you won\u2019t mind throwing in the saucer,\u2019 said the connoisseur, \u2018The kitten seems so happy drinking from it.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u2018I can’t do that,\u2019 said the butcher firmly, \u2018That’s my lucky saucer. From that saucer, so far this week, I\u2019ve sold 18 cats.\u2019<\/p>\n

She is eating again, but only when we bring food to her–it’s a start. She’s also enjoying the many visits we make to where she has decided to stay put and rest. I did get her to let go of a flimsy piece of blanket she was laying on and she’s now resting on a large, soft, cozy one. Cats do have their own mind even when Mother knows best. She’s still weak and a kitten, but she is definitely showing signs of improvement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Have you read the one about the lucky saucer?
