breakin' news...


I have breakin' news, my friends.  I have breakin' news.  WHOMPIN' BIG, BIG OL' BREAKIN' NEWS.


MOUSES!


Are you ready?


Are you sittin' down?


Are you as excited 'bout this as am I?


Here goes...


Peepers went to the store the other day and came home with not one, but two plastic totes.  TWO!  That's right, I said, TWO.


And they're pretty darn big totes, too.


MOUSES!


And...


And when I asked her about 'em, about why she had bought those two big plastic totes, she said they were for the stash.


MOUSES!


Oh my mouses, my wonderful friends.  Oh my MOUSES!  Do you know what this means?  DO you?  Those two big totes are for MY stash!


DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH CATNIP THOSE TWO TOTES ARE GONNA HOLD?


MOUSES!


I've been wantin' a tote or two to store my nip stash for ages, now.  For ages and ages, for sure!  And not just my stash of loose catnip, either.  I've been wantin'...  No, NEEDIN' a container to hold all my various nip-related items, as well.  I have nip mice and nip fish and nip-filled biff bags - some fabric, some knitted - and then there are the...


What?  What's that, Peepers?  What's that you're babblin' on about now?


What?


WHAT?


Exactly what is you're tryin' to say, ol' peep of mine?


WHAT???


MOUSES!


So apparently...


So apparently, those two totes are not for me.  Apparently, those two totes, she bought for herself.  Apparently, those two totes are for Peepers' YARN.


Can you believe it, my friends?  CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?  Those two totes were bought to hold Peepers' stupid stash of stupendously stupid, stupid ol' stash of stupid ol' yarn.


And she already had totes stuffed with her stash.  I can't see how she could possibly be needin' two more.


MOUSES!


BREAKIN' NEWS...  Seville the Cat arrested on charges of demolishing a ridiculously large stash of stupendously stupid ol' yarn.


Least that's what the press is likely to report.


Once I get my paws and my slobber all over that stupid ol' yarn.


MOUSES!

  2. Dang, nip is much better than yarn. Let us know if we need to bail you out Seville!

  3. That is not fair. She could share and give you one for your stash.

  8. Our Mom now only has 1 tote...when she moved back to Midway 4 years ago she had a garage sale and got rid of 6! Your Peep would have LOVED them! Keep being awesome, Marv

    Thank you for your condolences, it means so much to me. Cinnamon is missed terribly. She arrived when Kozmo was about 6 months old and I did not know that cats and dogs could be bonded pairs until then. Those 2 were inseparable. Kozmo was always within sight of Cinnamon. He even followed us on our walks and for the last few months, when we knew she was really ill, he was sleeping with her (again). He is still sad.

    Love Barb (and Kozmo, Marv, Jo Jo, and Nutmeg)

  9. I saw the first few lines and raced over and got Mrs H to book tickets over to Nova Scotia to sample some of this major stash. Got to the end and had to cancel the tickets. Still, if you could get your peeps to convert all that wool into nip toys, well that would be a good use for the tote bags, for sure.
    I could still come over then, and maybe you and Saffy can show me how you trained your peep to grow things. That way I can instruct Mrs H and prise her away from cataloguing last years home made sherry collection 😉
