a cat to purposely dive in the water is
something which they all said they

Orchard we're surprised and said the
animal must have been nearly starved.
The cat, which looked to be a full

distance from the shore on the. bridge
side of the Orchard. It watched until
a minnow swan by and then dove fol-
It, This was repeated several times,
