Meet Quicksilver and Quince, two extraordinarily pampered pussies. The felines receive 5 pence pocket money a week from their doting owner, and further monetary contributions on Saint's days. Their wealth has grown to the point where they now have their own bank account and chequebook. Quicksilver and Quince use their money to support various charitable causes including making a conscience payment to the RSPB.
