Percy Is Missing

We are all very concerned here. Percy left for the new CCSI rehearsal this morning and hasn't returned for his dinner. Jan is getting frantic. She left this message on the message board at Sassy Tales:

This is Jan. Do you happen to know where Percy is? He was supposed to be home from rehearsal by dinnertime but he isn't home yet. He's not a street-smart kitty, having been a housecat since he was a tiny baby, so we're all worried here. No one answers the phone on the set. Did the cast stop for a snack after work?

We have just received this reply from Sassy over at Sassy's Tales.

I don't know where most of my cast is??? Tigger says they are together traveling but that is not I believe the case. I think they were earlier together traveling around but not sure about that now.I do know that all are safe but where are they??

Imagine our surprise to learn many of the cast disappeared from the set today and are evidently traveling in places they shouldn't be without a passport - or permission!

Percy, wherever you are, call home ASAP and let us know you are okay and on your way! Jan is holding dinner for you and the rest of us are STARVED!!!! So get your butt home now ..... please. Or at least call home and give permission for the rest of us to share your crunchies

A Rose For...

The rose below came from Miss Peach's cottage home and she would love to see it passed around to friends and family.

I shared the lovely rose Miss Peach gave me with my brothers and sisters here at Jan's Funny Farm. And then I asked them what friends we should share this with. We finally decided on -

Chase - She has risen above her own disability to become a therapy cat to humans.

Poppy Q - She is warm and welcoming to everyone and is always introducing new friends.

Momo & Pinot - Momo is such a wonderful big sister to her new baby brother Pinot. She even helped him get a role as a photograph in the latest CCSI production.

Actually, we would love to share this rose with all the actors and production workers for Sassy's latest CCSI production. (Percy's head is swimming from all the new cats and dogs he's met on the set and he can't begin to remember all their names.) They have been working so hard to put the new show together in time for its opening.

The Santa Caper will be airing December 14 at 8:00 pm est with shows running all day. Be sure to stop by Sassy's Tales to see it. Until then, you can stop by Sassy's to meet the cast and production staff.

Wolf Fishing

We saw the neatest news story with photos and video and we want to share it with everyone.

Have you ever seen a wolf catch salmon? Neither have we and since we don't live in Alaska, we probably never will. We'd ask Jan to take us up there to watch the bears and wolves fish, but we know what Jan would say: NO! You guys can't behave for 5 straight minutes. Why would I want to take you on an airplane where everyone would notice your behavior?

Jan, we do behave for 5 straight minutes! We are perfect ladies and gentlemen when we are sleeping!

But back to the fishing wolf story and video. You have to see this to believe how fast this wolf is. She appears, grabs a fish and trots off. A bear is also fishing, but ..... watch the video for yourself.

Miss Peach's Rose

Miss Peach had an open-invitation tea party today for all the kitties in the blogosphere. It was a surprise birthday party for her mom. We felines voted to send Cotton to represent our "tribe," as someone once called us. She is quiet, doesn't slurp when she drinks from a cup, and she is matriarch of our clan.

She had a wonderful time, enjoyed a tour of Miss Peach's cottage, drank tea from delicate teacups without slurping, and munched on delicate treats. Like the generous lady she is, Cotton brought each of us a taste of something special from the table.

Note from Cotton: I did not retire to the summer patio for evening drinks. That was the gentlemen's retreat. The ladies stayed indoors or strolled the garden, well away from the summer patio where the gentlemen were having a burping contest. Ladies do not burp in public!

Miss Peach presented each guest with a lovely rose, which Cotton insists is for all of us. We want to share it with you. Isn't it beautiful? Click on the picture and watch it sparkle.
