Paris on February 3 reports the city pound now rivaling a zoo in attraction, housing a diverse menagerie including a superb bull, a cow, two billy-goats, six white mice found in the subway, and an owl among other unclaimed animals awaiting owners or new homes.
The report describes a maimed sea gull with a broken pinion to be returned to owner Ene who agrees to cover board costs. A cow named Caroline, unlike other guests, is ill tempered and caused disruption by sitting in a garbage box on arrival. The only recoverable item is the sea gull, while the cow’s temperament stands out among the animals.
