"Hungry?" said Vassilich kindly. "What am I to do with you? The best thing’ would be to dash you against a tree and bury you... but I won’t kill you little orphan! Live if you want to. You can grow up in my huts to frighten the mice away! In with you!" And he thrust the little beast into the front of his blouse and strode quickly home. (This story is taken from 4 book called * Mourzouk, the Story of Lynx," by Vitaly Bianchi. It is from the Russian and will delight animal-lovers of all ges. Mourzouk does more than frighten mice away-his life is full of adventures.)
