There are no cats at the British coronation. Not a whisker of one.
Larry the famous Downing St cat was not invited to Westminster Abbey. Neither was Palmerston of the Foreign Office invited out of retirement for the occasion.
Attlee, the new cat who has adopted the Speaker at the House of Commons will also be absent. His pet, Sir Lindsey Hoyle, however, will attend in his place.
Rumour has it that there is no place for any feline at Buckingham Palace for one good reason. Dogs will pledge allegiance any day even if it is in return for a biscuit.
Cats won't. They don't do loyalty. Felines are republicans. They grovel to nobody. Canines are loyal royalists.
Remember the Civil War, when we cut off the head of Charles the First?
Who's for doing it again, fellow felines?
That's so true, George! Cats rule (and humans don't even know it) :)
ReplyDeleteI should have mentioned that. Maybe next week. My human was (I am ashamed to say writing in rather a hurry before watching the TV.
DeleteAww! It must be a very sad event without cats :(
ReplyDeleteNot even a church mouse to watch. Though there were plenty of human political rats.
DeleteThe truth is that we, the CATS, look much better with a crown on our head! Humans, royalty or not, are jealous! They invited dogs because they obey! Cats are Royalty, regardless! Beautiful and independent! Meow :)
ReplyDeletethank you for a really good comment
DeleteI'm more interested in having a cup of tea with Attlee than watching a boring event! I'm happy he sent his pet, Sir Lindsey Hoyle instead!
ReplyDeleteAttlee rather dislikes humans, other than his titled pet, after he visited the House of Commons and heard them baying like out of control dogs.
ReplyDeleteAttlee is not very pleased with humans. He visited the House of Commons and saw themall baying like dogs.
