    The spurdoodle is what made the wildcat wild!
    Here’s the story:
    “The spurdoodle is a queer little animal that lives among the dead leaves and twigs in the woods and is so very like them that he is hard to find. He feeds on acorns, pine cones and other seeds of the woods.”
    “One day the old cat was out in search of his dinner when he came upon a spurdoodle, and, thinking him a tender morsel, picked him up in his mouth. He dropped him so quickly it nearly made his head spin!
    “Being very hungry, the big cat tried again to eat the troublesome spurdoodle, but the little creature put up such a fight that the cat went off in a wild rage, and he’s been called the wildcat to this day.” x
