Wow, brofur wrote all these diary entries about the car and I end up being a diary pick today. Ladies first, right? Thank you, Diary Lady. Since I'm a diary pick, I thought I'd update you on the great car hunt.

The great car hunt is over! Mom successfully hunted us down a Cat Recreational Vehicle, also known as CRV. Mom gave our CRV a name too. It's Honda. Our CRV was born in 2010 and he has only run 6600 miles so far.

Mom got him Tuesday night from this guy named Dealer. She wasn't even planning on bringing something home, she just wanted to look. Mom was so proud of herself because she haggled successfully, got a good price for the little Pontiac we had, got good financing. Mom was happy, until she drove him home.

The new CRV stinks! Literally!

He is a smoker's CRV. Pew eee. Mom didn't notice when she did the test drive. It was 83 and humid outside and the dealer guy had the AC turned up to the max and the AC has an air filter. See, this would not have happened if I would have helped Mom hunt cars. I would have smelled it right away. Well, the dealer guy said they've only had the CRV for a week and Mom thinks they only vacuumed him out but didn't shampoo yet. Mom has been driving with the windows partly down alot and the moon roof open too. And she leaves him sitting in the garage with all the windows down and roof open. Mom talked to a detailer and next Purrsday our CRV will get a good bath on the inside. Mom already had the cabin filter changed (it was as grey as my friend Roger's fur) and the smell is much better already. Mom also keeps a half a cup of baking soda in the CRV. Bottoms up.

I hope we cats don't need to go anywhere until our CRV has had his bath.

I got to go outside yesterday a bit, Mom right by my side. We've had 91 yesterday, 83 the day before. Lovely.

Have a happy Sunday everypurr,
Mietzi

Oh, sorry the CRV is stinky but this time a bath sounds like a good idea.

Congratulations on being a Diary Pick today, Mietzi!

Tell her to put some dryer sheets all inside the car - those will help with the stink! Congrats on your diary pick today!

Tao bro, I agree. Smoking is a bad thing. Non of us smokes.
Hi Pipo and Minko - that is a lovely kitty you found. She does look like my cousin. Thank mew.
Beepers - yes, Mr. Honda needs a bath for sure.
Me, I'm non-washable. Dry clean only please.
Thank you, Samoa, for the tip. I will tell Mom. That's a great idea.
