Thomasina - The Cat Who Thought She Was God - Plot & Excerpts
Toward evening it was the duty of Willie Bannock to dispose of the contents of this refuse heap consisting of waste from the hospital as well as the corpses of defunct animals that had either perished in the course of illness or were done away with at the advice of Mr. MacDhui. A stickler for hygiene, the veterinary would order these corpses placed outside upon the refuse heap immediately, to await the attention of Bannock via the incinerator, a most modern electric one, complete with smoke arrestor. A high fence enclosed this area from the prying eyes of neighbors, and a lower one partitioned the grounds behind the little hospital from those of the dwelling next door, where Mrs. McKenzie waged her perpetual battle to wring a few herbs, flowers, and vegetables from the soil. Mrs. McKenzie’s formal gardens were often the subject of some banter on the part of Mr. MacDhui and even the Reverend Peddie when he came to spend an evening with his friend, but both were also just men who praised her flowers and occasional radishes, onions, and carrots when there was a yield.
