The Broken Ear

Before Spike came to live with us a couple of years ago, he must have been beaten and bitten – his ears look a bit like a map of Greenland. He still looks handsome though and he has changed quite a lot over the years from a scaredy cat to a mellow- ish cat.

His ears however remind me of cartoon strips my brother and I read when we were young “Tintin and The Broken Ear”. It was translated into Thai, of course and we did not know any French so quite puzzled why Tintin was Tangtang!
