Murphy has a strict rule - "all toys are Murphy's toys". This means that if Gizzy ever gets a toy (always a screwed up piece of paper, usually a receipt) and starts chasing it round the place - or even if she just darts about the house! - Murphy will get up and growl at, and chase, her.
But last night he got his some-uppance - she was curled up on his duvet behind the sofa and he was sleeping on the floor. She got up to run after Richard into the kitchen and Murphy snuck onto (HIS) duvet.
But she came back.
And she wasn't happy! She sat 2 feet away and glared at him. He paid no attention (having his eyes closed) so she got up and walked over... got onto the duvet and walked towards him..
when she got to his head he jumped and sat up, nervously. She kept on coming and as she reached his chest he leapt up and shot off the duvet, leaving it all to her again.
She curled up where she had been and dozed off.
(I felt so sorry for him I let him up on the sofa with me)
