My Life and Times

12 Days of Christmas - A Cat's Rendition

On the twelfth day of Christmas my human gave to me:

Twelve bags of catnip,

Eleven tarter Pounce treats,

Ten ornaments hanging,

Nine wads of Kleenex,

Eight peacock feathers,

Seven stolen Q-tips,

Six feathered balls,

Five MILK JUG RINGS!

Four munchy house plants,

Three running faucets,

Two fuzzy mousies,

And a hamste-e-er in a plastic ball-!!

For those not familiar with Congo's case:
1. two illegal immigrants were gardening at the family's house
2. they arrived an hour early
3. they were told by the husband to stay in their truck until he could
get out of the shower and get some clothes on
4. the husband speaks Spanish and spoke to them in Spanish so there is
no question they understand what they were told to do
5. they directly disobeyed the husband and walked into the backyard with
the wife, who had just pulled into the driveway)
6. the two adult gsd's and their puppies came running
7. the gardeners panicked
8. ONE GARDENER GRABBED THE WIFE AND WRESTLED HER TO THE GROUND, USING
HER AS A PROTECTIVE SHIELD
9. Congo thought his owner was being attacked and went after the gardener
10. The gardener used his rake to beat at the puppies and inflicted some
injuries on them.
11. the gardener changed his story three times (interesting note on
official bias: when the owner said the gardener changed his story five
times, the dog warden said "No, he only changed his story 3 times.")

The Southern CA Fires

We're one of the lucky cats. The sky is white, the moon is red and ash is falling, but we're safe. We're just so glad that the winds have stopped...at least for now.

It was so dry on Monday that Mommy said her hands looked like a lizard's. It was less than 10% humidity. Yuck!

We're all indoors, but on Monday, Mom was outside a lot with the dogs (so they could do their business), so her allergies were awful. She finally bought a box of protective masks yesterday, but they're so hot to wear that she ends up taking them off.

Anyway, keep all those poor kitties and doggies that are affected by the fires in your thoughts and prayers.

MOL!
