Puck the Stairway Bouncer

Puck has never been an active fellow, and the older he gets, the less active he becomes.  In his later years he has taken on the role of stair bouncer. 


Sitting at the center at the top of the stair landing, Puck decides who passes.  Which means, cats get by, dogs don't even try.  Sneaky Squirrel, who has never made any kind of sound that I know of, will try to sneak by when Puck is asleep.  This strategy is often successful.  Puck is often asleep.


When Puck is awake, trying to sneak by him results in a wicked slap of the paw.  Puck is very good at his job.
