  Case File: The Arrest of Miles Davis-Isaacs Menagerie Crime Files — Incident Report #007 There comes a moment in every Matriarch’s life when she must look a beloved animal squarely in the face and say, “Enough.” For me, that moment arrived at 14:32 on a perfectly ordinary afternoon, when Miles — Beagle–Pointer, chaos engine, raccoon‑morality specialist — committed one crime too many. The Roast Theft. The Laundry Massacre. The Amazon Meat Heist. The Silent Extraction Route. Each incident had been logged, sketched, analysed, and filed. But the escalation was undeniable.

It started out of pure survival (p. 20). When you share a home with a Pointer-Beagle hybrid who possesses the moral compass of a toddler with a biscuit, you quickly realize that if you don't document the crimes, no one on the outside will believe you (pp. 20, 29, 31).
