The Sniffer Issue No. Three

The Ballad of Cocky the Fox so far: Cocky the fox, a handsome specimen of Vulpes vulpes living on the edge of an English town, is in trouble. His mentor Holiday Bob, top fox in the Borough, is dead. His family life has collapsed, and he’s moved in with his friend Champion, a distressed albino rabbit. His enemies are everywhere. And he’s been drinking a lot of aftershave.

In Fit the Third, Cocky paid a visit to the Borough’s new boss, Billy Five Wives, at the Yard. In no uncertain terms, Billy ordered him to move out of Champion’s hutch, patch things up with his vixen Nora, and cease his program of self-medication. Stung by Billy’s officiousness, not to mention the pitying glance of Billy’s vixen Trixie, Cocky returned to the hutch and picked a fight with his consigliere, Weasel Paul. It was really awful.
