Bereft, Alice fell asleep gazing out of the window. Her beloved cat had vanished; she couldn’t imagine life without it. She needn’t have worried, it returned the following morning.
“Where have you been?” Alice asked grumpily.
“I’ve been out, studying stars with a new cat called Batman,” her cat explained. “We looked at Orion. Pretty nifty dude, actually.”
“For a Trappist cat, you’ve a lot to say,” Alice replied, adding jealously, “Are you about to leave me for Batman?”
“Orion’s the nifty dude,” her cat said. “And fear not, I may be a Trappist, but I’m also a humanist Trappist.”
