Bruce the Eco terrorist

Plastic bags have a special interest for Bruce. It all started so slowly it was almost imperceptible.  There were the occasional annoying ‘accidents’, then consistently every morning I would be racing to the bin with a dripping bag and following up the trail with disinfectant and paper towels.

I started to ask myself, ‘Should I take Bruce to the Vet? Does he have a kidney complaint? Is this just a new aspect of his naughtiness?’ Before going to bed, I started to check the floor for any stray bags and move them to higher ground. Alas plastic bags of my son’s muddy soccer boots or putrid sports gear seemed to hide in far-flung corners of the house, to become victim to Bruce’s campaign.

It must have been months before I finally realised the awful truth. Bruce had become an ‘Eco-terrorist’. Cloth bags were environmentally friendly and therefore acceptable but plastic bags were the target of his ire. If they were within his reach, they received his message written in wee -‘Say No to plastic bags!’
