Chapter Text
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me….
A Partridge in a Pear Tree.
Yeah, more like a bloody cat getting stuck inside a holly bush. There’d been a landslide, due to the adverse weather conditions, causing a gas main to explode. They had to evacuate the area, and fix the gas line, all thanks to Virgil, who’d happened to be in the area at the time. One owner’s cat took fright, catapulting itself right into the thick holly bush. No matter how many times Virgil tried to pull it out, he was scratched, by both cat AND bush.
In the end, he went for the old ‘tried and true’ method of tempting it out with a can of tuna. It finally emerged, tail stuck up in the air, sniffed the can and haughtily strolled off. But not before it decided to pee on Virgil’s boot….
… as a ‘thank you’.
