Good News / Bad News

Looking for Buddy just now, I came upon a mess of real brown fur on the attic floor - horrified, I wondered what had met it's doom at the paws of my lttle darlings! Fortunately my conscience it turned out to be an antique fur scarf - you know the kind? Made up of 5 little minks with paws, tails, faces and one little head is supposed to clasp another little tail as it rests on your shoulders. Ghastly, really. I think I bought it at a yard sale, and wore it one Halloween... (Given their extreme shortage of toys, no wonder they helped themselves.)
