chickenSo we went to see Valiant this weekend. Not bad, not bad. Not nearly as good as *ahem* CHICKEN RUN, but still decent.
But anyway, at the end of the film there was an on-screen message about how there is actually an award for animal bravery during wartime, the Dickin Medal, given out to 32 messenger pigeons, 18 dogs and 3 horses ... and ONE CAT.
And we all said, "I wonder what the cat did?"
Well, now I know what the cat did. Furry little rat-killing, morale-boosting predator.
