Monday Mancat Mystery

Please, effury cat, say prayers for Roomba. He has been missing from Mom's work since last Friday morning after she fed him. This weekend she kept driving over there looking and calling for him in the bushes, all around the industrial park and is really very sad and worried. In the 16 months she has been taking care of him at work, this is the first time he's not been there to greet her in the morning for his breakfast. He is always there. It is his home. MiniMe is there and she is sure he/she is lonely for him.

Mom just got to work and still no Roomba. This time she started crying. She is hoping someone trapped him and will find him a good home. But what is really scary is that a raccoon has been hanging around the last few days and she's scairt they may have gotten into a fight. But the raccoons have been here all the time on and off. Poor Mom!

Roomba has visitors

On the left is Roomba's mom, Eureka, eating stinky goodness.This picture was taken the day before the big snow storm.

Eureka's newest kitten that Mom named MiniMe as she is the spitting image of Eureka.

MiniMe has discovered the comfort of the tent and bedding inside.

Mom was so busy at work yesterday she didn't even have time to take pictures of the snow where these kitties live. She had to dig out a hole in the bushes on Roomba's side and shovel around the tent (which was safe and MiniMe was in there when she got to work) but other than that they were fine. Roomba was a bit out of sorts for a while because of all the snow plows and shoveling going on. MiniMe was playing in the snow on the sidewalk and Mom was laughing so hard because she's never seen a cat play like that in the snow. She was having a blast jumping around, sliding and playing hockey with the little snow clumps.

12 hours later

Twelve hours later and it's STILL snowing! We think we've had about 7 or 8 inches so far and an additional 4 is expected before it tapers off later in the day. Mom got home safe last night but was sliding all over the roads, like everyone else. She has to go over a big bridge and wasn't sure her car was going to make it. She couldn't get any traction. Everytime they plow a little while later it doesn't even look like they did. Good day to stay inside and watch from INSIDE! Mom is anxious to get to work and check on/dig out Roomba, Eureka and MiniMe. (Roomba's mom and her baby)

Roomba's cool new house

Here's the cool new house the nice lady, Andrea, dropped off. In fact yesterday when Mom was there feeding Roomba and taking this picture, Andrea stopped by to check on him too. She'd been there earlier to put food in his bowl and told Mom she knows he's been using the house, which she thought so too. Boy, that is one spoiled kitty! I'm starting to get very jealous! She's going to be dropping off some hay today to put inside for him and talk about trapping him to get him fixed, whatever that is. I didn't know he was broken. Poor Roomba! No wonder he is so spoiled!

-7 actual temp, -22 wind chill!!!

BRRRR!!!! You cannot believe how cold it is outside! We don't know for a fact, we're just going on what Mom said, but we know she would never lie to us. The only reason she will be going out today is to feed Roomba and buy me more canned stinky goodness. That's our Mom! What she won't do for us furries.

A nice lady on Friday brought a really cool feral shelter she had an extra of for Roomba. Mom thinks he's been using it because the food she put in the top "bunk" of it was gone and when she showed up to feed him yesterday she said she heard him mewing in the bushes and it was taking him longer than usual to come to her so she's thinking he was winding his way down out of his new house. Mom said she'll take her camera with her today to get a picture of it.
