ComiCentric Issue 97: With out a gout, a feet of an episode
(*recorded live during business hours*)
Once upon a time, in the opulent kingdom of Purrrsia, there ruled a majestic cat named Magi Whiskers III. Magi Whiskers was known far and wide for his lush lavish lifestyle, indulging in the finest feline foods and lounging in the most luxurious of linens. His fellow aristocats lavished him with treats and his fellow meowgi revered him for his granpurrrr.
However, as the years passed, Magi Whiskers’ indulgent lifestyle began to take its toll. He found himself plagued by bouts of excruciating pain in various joints, diagnosed by Dr. Magus Mouse as gout. The once proud and regal king was now confined to his throne, unable to enjoy the plentiful pleasures his kingdom had to offer.
Determined to regain his health and vitality, Magi Whiskers embarked on a journey of self-discovery. He bid farewell to his rich diet of fancy meats and savory seafood, instead embracing simpler options such as fresh vegetables, and plenty of water. This is the task set forth for all the finest chefs in all the land; to create nutritious and delicious meals fit for a Magi on the mend.
In addition to dietary changes, Magi Whiskers embraced a more active lifestyle. He traded his days of lounging for brisk hikes through the vast palatial peaks and invigorating swims in the royal rivers. With each step and stroke, he felt his strength and vitality returning, and the pain of gout slowly receding.
As the seasons passed, Magi Whiskers’ health continued to improve. His fur regained its luster, his eyes sparkled with renewed vigor, and his fellow meowgi marveled at the transformation of their once ailing Magus. Magi Whiskers had learned that true wealth lay not in riches and indulgence, but in the health and happiness that comes from living in harmony with oneself and the world around them.
