   Moo Mittens is family. But, also, didn’t one of the cats once do a real solid for Poncho, several years ago? Like, save his life or something? Maybe Poncho feels he has to return the favour.

   FWIW, most countries (e.g., European, and Canada) have just a red and white striped pole. America added the blue (also used sometimes in Australia and Japan). I’ve read the blue is really more about the colour of veins, and possibly bruising. I suspect blue was used on poles in America even before they ‘discovered’ hemoglobin. Wikipedia suggests the addition of blue on poles in America was possibly just for patriotic reasons. en.wikipedia.org_slash_wiki/Barber%27s_pole

   No way of knowing, but I think that’s the point. Each is wearing a button saying what the other’s party usually (seems?) to abide by. So, common ground, but also uncommon.

    Marvellous!!! Mind you, and I’m not a professional trained poet, but I think the use of ‘vegetative’ would have made for a better sounding rhyme. :-)
