One day, at one of the watering hole gatherings, the usually cool and calm cat was excitedly sharing what she saw from her owner's Lonely Planet Guide to France. She swooned over the charm of the country while her long tail swished from left to right. She went on and on about the lush plains, the lovely temperate weather and the perpetual romance in the air and the best tasting wines in the whole wide world. She caught the other three staring at her with jaws open-wide and immediately collected herself.
Then in her normal hoity-toity voice, she declared that she would visit France regardless and that since her owners would be travelling, they would not miss her too.
This was exactly the point in time when the monkey jumped up and down, having suddenly realised what it means when France has the best tasting wines in the whole wide world.
{Narrator: (smiles to herself) yes... sometimes the monkey can be a little bun and slow too... and it is not the koala's influence... it is just who she is...}
"Me! Me! I wanna go to!" The cat looked at the monkey disdainfully and said "Sure. Come along" in her usual cool and calm manner while secretly happy for some company on the trip.
The pig and the koala just turned and blinked at each other, expressing that they had no desire to be travelling anywhere.
The cat and the monkey then sat down to make travelling plans and decided to leave that very night in the luggage of the cat's owners. They promised to send picturesque postcards to the pig and the koala whenever they could and bade farewell.
