• They are discreetly dressed for every occasion
• They bring good luck to their owners
• If wearing a white bowtie they make excellent butlers
• They are dramatic by day and invisible by night
• They make unwelcome visitors feel ill at ease by suddenly looking sinister
• The black leather on their paws and nose is always in good taste and very durable
• They enjoy Halloween parties
• Their pleasing sobriety of manner fits them for unobtrusive duties in undertaker's parlours, public libraries, ladies' waiting rooms and the better kind of family restaurant
• When they stretch their forepaws they appear to be wearing long black elbow-length evening gloves
• They are used to riding pillion when I fly across the sky at night
