In which I discover that I am a cat

(我輩は猫である）

4th September 2007

The Internet abounds with personality quizzes but the one at http://www.goldencompassmovie.com/ is the classiest I've seen.

In the world of The Golden Compass, people have their souls outside themselves, in the form of a bird or animal.

With a few judicious clicks and twenty honest answers at the website, you'll find out what your daemon is.

And mine is...a snow leopard.

It's a bit of a mystery how a person can be assertive and shy at the same time but cats are notoriously contrary creatures.

P.S. If a poacher points a gun at me, I shall be most put out.
