Beauty once lived in a gorgeous castle, where her every need was met. She was showered with attention. Too much attention. The King became jealous and insisted that the cat should go! (It was either him or the cat, he threatened.) He was not going to share. The Queen, unfortunately, chose to keep the King, and poor Beauty was sent packing.
