The Net is Closing...Tighter and Tighter

 Kitties!  Thanks to two sharp minded furriends who cast the light of suspicion onto two likely suspects, the net is starting to be drawn closed. 

The Tabbies,  and Eric and Flynn's mom both said that while they weren't hurling strong accusations at LION and LEOPARD...both, (it was postulated),  had been layin' low- and out of the main stream of things.  Presumably making plans to attack Donkey and bite off his hoof. 

Mom  and I heard the loud sound of a scary minor key chord played on an organ when they-- Tabbies and Eric and Flynn's mom, said that!  Chills ran over her and my furs.  *well, at least raised the hair on her head*.   She thinks the suspects may have been toying with mom and me when those accusations were made and cued the  loud organ music.  Scared us, I'll tell you.

Here they are-to refresh your memory.  If you see them at your place (popping thru the tunnel) then you'd better call the Purrleece.  Or at least send them back thru the tunnel to our place.  Mom will deal with them.   Here is their wanted poster!  Profile and front view...one Leopard.

And a full face frontal of the scary LION. 

Purrleece! Purrleece!

 Kitties!  A terrible thing happened to Donkey last night.  SOMEONE bit off his hoof in a fight!!!  He's not able to get around at all!  I wonder if Dr. Mom can find the hoof and put it back on poor Donkey.

This was the scene!  It seems to appear the Donkey and Floppy Mousie were fighting over who was going to sleep in the new thick, crunching, crinkly sounding bag!   And Donkey being quite the senior, must have been overcome by Mousie.  

Maybe a police kitty will come and sort it all out, and help find the missing hoof!  Donkey is in the Katie Isabella Home Hospittle here right now.  If need be, he may be transported to the hospital with humans.  We are trying to keep his stuffing from leaving his poor little body.  

Scene of the Crime:

Not for the squeamish:  Hoof is bitten off! 

The hotly contended baggie

I think Mousie's smirk tells all! 

 Kitties!  I have two new toys that I LURVE! I have a thick cardboard egg carton!  And  have a strong new paper bag!  Very sturdy.  I'll show you that soon. Best toys ever!

Mom filled each place where the eggs were with one morsel.  The egg cups are deep so I have had to work hard the get the morsels out of the cups.  I put my foot in and curl my toes around the morsel and lift it to my mouth!  I am SO clever!  

I will see if mom can get a video in here from last night.  I am so proud of myself for getting any out because those cups are DEEP. 

Turn the sound up if you want to hear my digging and stuffs to get it out! 

Miss Muffet

 Sat on a tuffet...after having eaten her curds and whey.

Bizzy Like a Bee

 Mommy is so bizzy I get dizzy  (I'm a poet) Her spinning around like she's on a merry-go-round.  It's usually that way,  but it has very recently become more so.  A cat and a mom have to do what they have to do.

It's supposed to snow and possible ice as well.  Sigh.  Mom was after an air freshener this morning and the place was jammed.  You know how people get when the "S" word gets slung aroun' by the weather guessers.   It did make mom think we need bread after they get home.  All that's here is horrible white bread.  I  as a cat don't eat it..and mom eats only whole wheat.  Some folks (brovver) can't eat whole wheat bread for a whole buncha reasons...so we're out of her bread and only have the yuk stuff.  

BUT we're off the the Big City for him for his appointment.  They'll be back long about supper time.  He has two in a row.  

Mom and I wonder if anyone made some salmon patties?  She had several ask her how she makes them but since most peoples like all kindsa stuffs in all their foods, no one would like this, but my family does.  For requesters, they'll l no doubt read it and say "meh". 

Well, they leave in 20 minutes so mom had better get a move on.  She swabbed out the tub a while ago and needs to get re-dressed.  *embarrassed ears*  They don't want mom's coming into professional buildings wearing just pantaloons and a collar. 

Smoochies to you. 

Me and Mario at a Twitter Pawty probably 8 years ago.  I don't get around much any more.

Is it Summer?

Kitties!  It's warm out there!  75 right now and sunny.  Likely to rise a bit more.  The wind is blowing hard. and bringing the rain we will have every day of the week.   Mom is hair proud, and complained when she got home that her hair looked like a costume head-piece with the wind blowing it hard about as she walked from the parking lot to the grocery store.   It was standing outward and upward into long rays, or blown all the way over to the side...that is until the wind shifted again.   Vanity, thy name is Mom. 

Mom murmured that she will have to stir the Tuxedo up to awakeness.  I've been in my bed for hours, for pity sake.  

She saw me washing my arms and wrists there in my bed half an hour ago.  The exertion did me in.  BUT later, mom will start the mixing up of the salmon patties.  She will save by some juice for me with a little salmon in it.  She said she just puts bread crumbs in it, salt and she likes black pepper...an egg and her Dad used to stir up a combination of water and flour...half and half of each,  stir rapidly with his cooking fork...and pour that in...not breadcrumbs. Mom will do either...flour and water, half and half--- or bread crumbs. That was the way my grampa made it so mom said she likes it that way.  Me too.  Mom or grampa is/was not a person who added a lotta stuffs.  Mom fries the patties in the pan that has heated up sufficiently.  Golden brown, and crispy on the edges.  She said she'll make mashed potatoes too.  She already has the masher out.   Her potatoes have plenty of butter.  Maybe she will give me a bit to lick.  She said something about shelly beans to go with it all.

Guests are welcome if you don't mind plain cooking; and I get petted and played with.    Here's my contribution.

Where'd He Go?

 Brovver is gone to his place.  I will miss him!  I don't like when he is gone.  I bonded with him just as I did with mommy- as he was there on a visit when I  first came home with mommy. 

So, I will spend the time that I am NOT napping on the back of the sofa  today on his bed in the spare room.  It's fresh and crisply made up.  She left the spread off,  because he'll be back late Sunday.  Guess what?  We are going to have salmon patties when he gets back.  The house will smell of those for a day and a half, but it's worth it.  Yum.  Mom just told me her mouth is watering just thinking of them.  Some people buy a seasoning mix to dump in the salmon.  Mom tried that once at someone's house, and while she was polite and ate the smallest pattie, she did not like it.  Too ultra ULTRA salty; and who could even taste the salmon it was so overwhelmed by that seasoning mix.   Mom makes it like her Dad did.   I'll get a little of the juice and some of the meat. 

Mom just did her prancing around with her fave Hawaiian  on TV.  She broke a slight mist on her face.  I may have to lick her arms and face to wash her.   For me...just a second and I'll show you...stand by.  Here.
