Cats enjoy a bit of drama but only if it’s bite-size. A moth entering their space is a source of joy. A bag of groceries in the kitchen provides adventure. However, when we invited the removal men to pack our furniture, we knew the cats would thoroughly disapprove.

We planned ahead, moving their rugs into the kitchen, checking the water and biscuit bowls were full, policed the litter boxes, and then provided a feel-good bribe in the form of a second breakfast.
