Beauty’s Alive
Surely we can’t be the only people who’d come to the conclusion that this wouldn’t end well. In fact for months we’d been telling anyone willing to listen that little Beauty had obviously been eaten by a fox.It seems that she is in fact alive and well and living in
Sparkbrook(apparently it was Sparkhill, we thought they were the same place). She even has her own kittens.The quote from John Hemming, in relation to Beauty’s current living situation, appears to make little sense:-
“I went to see the cat last night and indeed it was Beauty. We, however, think that she is feeding kittens at the moment so she has been returned to the lady who had kindly looked after her for a year so that we can try to track down the kittens.”
And Mr Hemming added: “It seems that Beauty has been looked after by two households at the same time. I think one of those households also has her kittens (more likely than they are outside).
“We need to track down the other household that is looking after Beauty. If they have her and a litter of kittens I would not be surprised if there was some form of arrangement we could come to. In any event I don’t want to take her away from her kittens. (If indeed there are kittens which I think there are).”
But confusion seems to have been a fairly consistent part of this entirely sordid affair.
Obviously some would question the coincidence of Beauty rolling up the day after Christine Hemming was sentenced for her theft, but knowing how notoriously publicity shy all parties have been throughout this story such suspicion would surely be misplaced.
The most important thing is that Beauty is alive and maybe, one day, we’ll get to review her. We are considering inventing a whole new scale to accommodate her.

Your usual standards of accuracy have clearly gone down. Beauty was found in Sparkhill (off Showell Green Lane). She seems to be feeding kittens hence our priority is the kittens (not that we have found the kittens).
The place she lives in has an area that is quite overgrown. Sheila Bates has been looking after her for over a year and phoned my office because she was told about the story of the purloined pussy.
I’m pretty sure we’ve never been accused of accuracy before.
This story seems to have made it around the world.

For our own amusement we translated the story via Google Translate. Always an easy opportunity for cheap laughs.
“It ‘also very off topic, but while I was reading the Guardian Fukushima-Daiichi an update on the one hand I discovered that before you present it in Parliament, the British Government shall submit to the Prince of Wales proposed legislation that could affect its economic interests, because they can exercise their right of veto. In the House of Lords, Baron Anthony Gueterbock Labour, Lord Berkeley and Vice-President of the Cycle Touring Club is not amused.

The Purloined Pussy
On the other hand … I confess that I had missed the first “theft which last year made news around the world.” Maybe even you.
.
Emily Cox lover in the house of the deputy Liberal Democrat John Hemming, his wife Christine Hemming had stolen the cat Beauty by four months. During the process in which has just been condemned, Christine, to nine months’ probation and 150 hours of work for the community, it was learned that she had been found and cared for, Beauty, nurse Sheila Bates, to the relief of citizenship that he feared had been devoured, Beauty, by a fox.
.
But the location of the find was not as erroneously reported by the Sparkbrook Meowseley site, the deputy said that Hemming on the site:
Your standards of accuracy are clearly declined. Beauty is found in Sparkhill.
.
Re-stirred on the forum where Emily intervenes with her lover, the deputy said that Hemming both had distributed leaflets with a description of the kidnapped,
without knowing anything about her until yesterday (October 28, ed) a person (Sheila Bates) has called my office about a cat who lived later in Showell Green Road … I went to see it last night and it was just beauty. We think that at the time of breast-feeding, and so we’ll just Mrs. (Sheila always Bates) who has graciously fed for a year to see if we can find the kittens.
.
I hope I have helped to make this news around the world.”
