The Mystery of Mom, Ant Ree and Mom Robyn of the HOT(M)BC

Somefing furry stranj is going on in owr werld and Gree from the House of the (Mostly) Black Cats and I are detecting to try to find owt wat it is. Heer's wat happend...

Satterday in Durham, NC - mom and Ant Ree bean pack up bags, put lots of kibbles in owr boles and drive away. Befor they go, there is lots of Irish myoosik playing from the teevee and the ceedee player. Mom is howling along. They tookd a hole lot of stuff that we used at the St. Patty's/Finny's Birthday Party.

Later that same day in Richmond, VA at the House of the (Mostly) Black Cats, there are lots of phone calls for Mom Robyn and she sownds more and more eksited as the day goes on. Crazy Irish myoosik is playing there too and Mom Robyn is laffing so much that Gramma Cat comes to ask wat is so funny. Mom Robyn tells her it is abowt the "batchler" and some "wellies". Gramma Cat is confyoosed and so are the (Mostly) Black Cats.

Satterday nite in Durham. Grampa comes to feed Buddy, Gilmore and Grady. Then he leaves and doesn't come bak until Sunday morning. Mom and Ant Ree NEVER came home!!!!

Satterday nite in Richmond: feeds the (Mostly) Black Cats and Mom Robyn does not come home to her kitties until after 1 O'clocks in the morning! That is a fine time for cats to be up and abowt, chasing mices, playing Thundering Herd of Ellyfants and such fings, but it is no time for mom beans to be coming home!!

Sunday morning in Richmond, Gramma Cat feeds brekfast and in Durham, Grampa does the same. Mom Robyn sleeps and sleeps. No sine of Mom and Ant Ree. Mom Robyn's fone thingy rings and rings and finely wakes her up. Gree overheers things like, "yes my legs are aching" and "it was lots of fun" and "OK, you'll meet Sanjee and the others next time"!!

Sunday afternoon Mom and Ant Ree FINELY come home and they are moving furry slowly, talking abowt achy legs and arms and how much FUN they had. How cood they haf fun wifowt us??

Monday morning After Ant Ree and mom leave for werks, we get the camra and find these pikshers.

Wat is this bean giving to Ant Ree or mom? And why is he wearing one of owr St. Patty's day hats?

We don't kno who this is, but if you look reely close, you can see some cat furrs on his shert! We fink this is a good bean who serves cats.

Miles Meezer sez he knows somefing abowt all this but he's not telling.

Imagine - John Lennon

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky

Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too

Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

All we are saying is...

It's a message that cannot be repeated too often. See all the Peace Globes

Daisy

This is owr little sisfur, Daisy. Mom wented into Petsmart on June 2, 2001 and went to look at all the kitties who needed new furever homes and she met a pritty little girly cat named Tiger Lily.

Mom had been thinking of getting a brofur or sisfur for me for a wile and she just fell in love wif little Tiger Lily. So they dopted eech ofur and she came home.

We kind of hissd at each ofur at furst, but it only took three weeks for me to lern to love my little sisfur just like mom did.

We thot of diffrunt names for her, but mom reely liked how she had two little wite blazes on her nose that lookd like flower petals, so we named her Daisy!

Daisy liked boxes and playing wif toys, but most of all, she loved to sit on mom's shoulder and purr and snuggle.

Daisy got furry sik just 9 months after she came to live wif us and even though mom and the vetty beans did lots of tests and medsins, Daisy coodn't get well and she had to go to Rainbow Bridge.

Although Daisy has been gone for more than 5 years, mom still thinks of her lots and misses her.

Please efurrycat, give yore beans an ekstra little snuggle today in honor of my little sisfur, Daisy.
