Hello, this is Eleanor Pigby. Do you remember me? Buster, the cheeky office dog, wrote about me recently.
Normally I'm pretty happy… I grunt contentedly to myself and follow my owner around the house. But while I'm writing these lines for you, I am anything but content.
You could say I'm very upset.
Why? Well, a few weeks ago I happened to hear our neighbours complaining about their cat. They said she was no longer clean and was behaving like a pig.
Excuse me?
Is this a joke? Like a pig? Why on earth should my species be held up as a bad example of cleanliness? This is a clear case of discrimination!
Because we pigs are actually quite clean. I certainly am — you can ask my owner! In the house I very politely use the cat litter tray and outside I do my business where I'm supposed to.
But that neighbour's cat obviously does not.
Apparently she no longer uses the litter tray; she refuses to go in it at all. Instead she now poos all over the house… even in the bath! Can you imagine how shocked her owner must have been when she ran the water for a bath?
Arrgh!
It's not as if the cat couldn't know better. After all, she should — especially as a cat — be house-trained. But it seems she changed her mind and decided the litter tray is no longer suitable for her.
And those damn cats boast about being so "clean". Who do they think they are? Nobody says things like "you're a proper cat" when expressing disgust at dirt. No, when a cat suddenly isn't clean, people call her a "pig"!
That makes me so mad!
Luckily Joette — Buster's owner — knew which homeopathic remedy could help. She suggested giving the cat Sulfur C30 twice a week. And it really worked brilliantly! Within a very short time the cat was using the litter tray again, as she should.
And all the nasty comments about pigs stopped.
Joette says this problem sometimes happens with human children too. (I love to snuggle under my blanket and hide, so Joette didn't even notice me when she told this story.) Years ago Joette knew a little girl in Year 6 who didn't… um… how shall I put it… use the toilet for her big bowel movement. She had been clean for years! She could pee on the toilet without any problem, but for a poo she used a wastepaper bin!
It wasn't that she didn't understand what it was about. She simply didn't care; she wasn't bothered whether her behaviour was disgusting or not.
It nearly drove the poor girl's mother to madness.
So she gave her daughter Sulfur C30 twice a week. Would you believe me if I said the problem was gone after three weeks? The little girl then used the toilet normally. Isn't that astonishing?
By the way, it also works for little boys who refuse to urinate in the right place.
Sulfur C30 helps anyone who is messy. Joette is clear that she doesn't mean ordinary messiness here, but truly chaotic untidiness. For people who have tousled hair, stains on their clothes, smell bad and refuse to get in the bath.
To help us remember (Sulfur for chaotic people who smell bad), Joette said that foods high in sulfur usually smell quite strong (hard‑boiled eggs, broccoli, cabbage or onions, for example). So remember — Sulfur C30 for anyone who is dirty, untidy and stinks.
You know, like Pig‑Pen from the Peanuts.
Hang on! There it is again, that word.
Why must they call that dirty little boy a pig? I would never be seen with a cloud of grime and dust around me.
Ah, I give up. I'm going to curl up under my blanket now and sulk a bit to myself.
But just in case, as Joette always says: spread the word, homeopathy helps! Sulfur C30 too. And please, do me a favour: never say you live with a pig, unless it's a real one!
