Here at Scallywags, we adore all creatures great and small and every month we like to share one of our wonderful pets with you. From their favourite pet toys to their naughty habits, you can learn all about our best friends.

Let me introduce you to the beautiful Banksy.

Good afternoon, Banksy.

Good afternoon.

What beautiful sunshine we are having, I hope you don’t mind me interrupting your sunbathing for a quick chat?

It’s okay, I need to come in for a snack anyway.

Well, that is handy timing. What is your favourite snack? 

Cheese. Cubed, grated, sliced – I like a variety.

Great idea, cheese is delicious. Do you know who else loves cheese? 

No, but they should give their cheese to me. Who is it?

Mice! 

WHERE?!

False alarm, my bad! I am guessing you are not a fan of mice?

I love mice. I like chasing them and playing with them. I have lots of toy mice, quite the collection actually. My mice toys are perfect for a game of fetch.

Sorry, fetch? I thought that was a game for dogs.

Please don’t stereotype. Fetch is species neutral.

My apologies, Banksy. Who do you like to play fetch with? 

No problem. I will play fetch with anyone, but Mummy is the best at throwing.

Is Mummy your best friend? 

Yes! Mummy always gives the best head scratches and most importantly, she always shares her cheese.

Banksy?

Mmm…

You’re thinking about cheese, aren’t you?

Yep!

Can’t say I blame you. I know Mummy is your best friend, but does she ever get cross at you for anything?

She gets really annoyed when I play with my bathroom spinny toy. But if it’s so bad, then why put a spinny toy in the bathroom?

What’s your bathroom spinny toy? 

This –

That’s toilet paper! I don’t think that’s supposed to be a toy, Banksy.

Agree to disagree.

Okay, well, moving on then. If you could describe your perfect day to me, what would it involve?

Sleeping. Naps, there would definitely be naps. A quick game of fetch maybe, and cheese. And some sleeping. Sleep is good.

Sleeping is very important, especially when you are younger. You’re about to turn two years old, aren’t you?

Yep, I’m still planning my birthday party.

How exciting! Well, I have taken up lots of your time so I will let you get back to your day. I just have my most important question left for you.

Okay.

Are you a good girl?

Nope!
