    the other cat's name is Fluffy. They are very useful for catching mice and rats. They eat bread and birds and other things. They like lying by the fire. When we are calling the cats we say "Peesh! Weesh!" When we are hunting them we say "cat sh!"
    There is often a branch hung in the cowhouse.
