Debris-ther

Guy Person led a noisy, odd-looking creature around the house today. I've seen it a few times before. It had a very long, flexible neck, and a crooked body in vibrant colours. It seemed quite intent on sniffing the floor.

What puzzled me most was its apparent lack of concern for the amount of debris it sucked up during its sniffing. The carpet was lovely and clean afterward, I'll grant you, but still, that can't have been pleasant. And imagine if I'd been wandering around at the time! Would it have simply inhaled me as well? I'm not as small as I used to be, so we would both suffer from such an encounter.

Glass walls can be advantageous for multiple reasons, and I'm grateful that Lady Person insists on my return to them.

Morbidly fascinated,
Mikey
