Catnip’s Jurnal Entry 22

Lionz n Tigerz n Bearz, Oh My !

It wuz dark wen we had r supah Top Secwet meetin n we wuz kickass hawt in R costumz. I went az a lion, Blu wuz a fuzzy wuzzy bear n Puss came az a scawy tiger. I almos jump oot me mane wen Puss appeared at me side. She wuz gloryus in her orange n bwak stwipez n she wuz absolutly terrifyin. Blu n I had ta nail R feets to da gwound nawt to hi tail it oota der. Nex to her we both wook wik kittens pwayin dwess up. It took a few minuts for I cud eben concentwat on her wordz so I missed da beginnin. Sumthin ’bout disciplin n proper awthorati makin da job lik buttah. I willy wemember da “buttah” comment cuz affur dat all I cud fink about wuz lappin up a slippery cold bowl o buttermilk. Fankfully Blu n Puss were on it doe. Dey rapid firin a ping pong discussion on da bes way to keep da twoops on task. Da qwesshon wuz da method o motivatin – Puss wuz pro-Fear n Blu wuz pro-Love. I wuz pro-tweatz,

We wuz prolly gettin noisy den, cuz dat wen da doggy nex door screemed n hiz hi pitched altered voice dat sound lik a mouse. We all stopped r-gu-in n look round fur da mouse. N dere was Dog makin tiny arf arf soundz dat come oot mor like squeekz. We cud nawt hep it but laff. We laffed so hard me tummy stawt hurtin. Den Dog joined in wike a munchkin on helium n we stawt cwyin fur mercy we laff so much.

Terri introduce us ta hiz ole mates. Dere iz Sylvester, an ole tuxie, Pumkin, a floofy red gurl, and Moo, a cow kittey. Togeber dez thwee rulz da stway colony. I wuz sad tew see so many catz wit dem. Dere mus ha been at weest 15 cats in dat lot, maby mor. Sum were kittenz tew. Terri tawk wit hiz old buddiez fur a bit den we giv dem bout 20 boxes. Wen we lef da thwee were showin da kittenz how ta mak dere boxes comfy. Da older catz were alweady tuked in n snoozin. Dey so happy.

At hom, da oberz say dey give away bout 50 boxes to da ober solo stwayz n r various neighbor catz. Even Dog got a box dat he alweady chewin happily.

Den Blu, Puss n I took a load ober to da underpass fur da colony o stway hoomanz. I wuz worried dat dey wud be mean n scawy, but Puss wuz sure dey wuz jus hoomanz n we be fine. Turnz oot she wuz mossly rite, de stway hoomanz were jus dirty hoomanz wit oot denz. We gabe dem da big boxes, big enuf fur hoomanz ta sleep in, n let dem pet us fur a bit. Sum o dem were so tuched dey cwied. I pwetend I don see.

Da Twee Haz Fallen, N It Can’t Get Up

Today wuz a bery sad day, n me hart iz heavy n full o tearz.

We all woke earwy dis mornin to howwible soundz ob buzzing n da earff shakin. I thawt maby da wurld wuz ending but actually it wurs. Eben da hoomanz R upset.

I felt specially bad fur Mr. Raven cuz he had ta be so stwong fur Mrs. Raven n Lil Raven who cud nawt stop cwyin. Dis wuz dere ancestral hom dat dey nested in fur generashanz. N if dat wuznt bad enuf, da twee killerz eben took dere nest n all dere mementoz. So nowz da Raven family is homeless.

Dis, ob curs, meant we did not do any wurk today. Instead we all sat round da Ravenz n comfort dem n listen to dere frantic kawz o pain n misery. We all so upset n depwessed dat we barely eat da kibble at Kibble Time.

Da hoomanz twy ta distwact us all wit catnip n toyz but we didn’t eben respond. Eventually dey gabe up n went to dere flashing screenz ta distwact demselves.

We all stayed togeffur n hep da Ravenz mak a temporary nest on da catio. Den it was nite agin an we all twy ta sleep. but no one willy did. We jus lie still n wook at da see ling while da baby Raven cwy in hiz sleep.

It wuz a howwible day.
