The advent of the Snoodles is a mystery that has long baffled scientists. One day there were none and then there were many. One bright morning, bleary eyed Snoodles suddenly emerged from caves, hollows and trees, stretched their paws, fluffed their fur, aired their duvets and pattered off in search of sorrel and watercress.
Many theories were put forward. They included space ships, time travel, crop circles... Most popular was the theory that Snoodles had been present long ago but on the approach of the ice age, had gone into hibernation and had overslept as is their wont. Further speculation was directed at their duvets. Were Snoodles the original inventors of duvets? Furthermore, how was it possible that the average Snoodle duvet can achieve a tog value in excess of three hundred and ninety?
Whatever these answers may be, Snoodles rapidly endeared themselves to everybody they met and people soon forgot that there was ever a time when there had been no Snoodles.
Snoodles had arrived.
