This is a picture of Summer Cat taken in 2006, when he came to live with us. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We have reason to believe that this will be the last summer of Summer Cat's life. He will remain with us as long as he seems to be happy and enjoying himself.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We all love him so much.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Pat says we are not to be sad ... we are to enjoy the good weather and celebrate the life of our beautiful Summer.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
pictures of his life will be posted soon. </div>

Hershey was sad when he realized that Pat and Henry were going away on a
trip and that cat-sitters were moving in to live with us: <br />

BUT - although we are all healthy and happy and well-loved, we did
experience some losses this year: The BACK GROVE and BOTH of our two

<br />
None of us remember life without the Volvo -- which Pat and Henry bought in Washington, DC in 1987:<br />

We were particularly fond of the Volvo because when it was in the garage, Pat rolled down the windows so that we could sleep inside!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now, however, the Volvo has gone to a new home where it will receive all the care that an "antique" needs and deserves.</div>

Look again at the picture above, of Taffy on the Volvo. Just to the side of the Volvo, you can see our silver-gray Kia, purchased in 2008. Here is Cocoa on the Kia, with the Volvo next to it:</div>

Both cars left us this year! Now, we have two new cars (both Hondas).</div>

None of us knew Zaidman ("Zeddie"), who was born in Pennsylvania and then commuted back and forth for many years, with Pat and Henry, between Calgary and Charlottetown. But we have heard many stories about what a great cat he was! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>So here is a picture of Zeddie in our back yard, taken in 2005, the last year of his life:

A few months ago, Pat told us that a hurricane ("Dorian") was coming to Prince Edward Island. We were excited! So we didn't really pay much attention when Pat told us that the hurricane might blow down some trees, even some of the trees in our backyard.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sadly .... the neighbor who lives behind us WAS concerned and decided that the trees should be taken down, before they fell on her house.</div>

<br />
This handsome black-and-white Tuxie -- we call him "Monty" -- began coming into our backyard in February, during bitterly cold weather:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bzrrEw-KgPs/WxhgLIncnRI/AAAAAAAAHHA/JdmuLKgo6cYV9oUr7-J7jsSHbnehn7hKACLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bin%2Bthe%2Byard.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="583" data-original-width="457" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bzrrEw-KgPs/WxhgLIncnRI/AAAAAAAAHHA/JdmuLKgo6cYV9oUr7-J7jsSHbnehn7hKACLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bin%2Bthe%2Byard.JPG" width="312" /></a></div>
<br />
Monty's favorite time to visit our yard was between 4 and 4:30 in the morning.<br />
<br />
The first several times that we sighted him, Summer Cat led us all in HOWLING to let Monty understand that he should leave our yard IMMEDIATELY.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5cFqaiRw7rM/WxhgfRhis4I/AAAAAAAAHHI/k9JbN6tZo187WafFHKqbPnkfVe3doKa5QCLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bin%2Bmotion.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1051" data-original-width="1600" height="262" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5cFqaiRw7rM/WxhgfRhis4I/AAAAAAAAHHI/k9JbN6tZo187WafFHKqbPnkfVe3doKa5QCLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bin%2Bmotion.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
But Monty -- who was obviously homeless -- repeatedly returned, to meow loudly at the back door to our catio, until eventually we all got so used to him that we stopped trying to drive him away.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SmwrnC-_6mA/Wxhgv-5BG6I/AAAAAAAAHHQ/nUpMmmJ03bQ9Ga1mYnbQcZsWNa6raUmxgCLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bat%2Bcatio%2Bdoor.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1298" data-original-width="1600" height="323" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SmwrnC-_6mA/Wxhgv-5BG6I/AAAAAAAAHHQ/nUpMmmJ03bQ9Ga1mYnbQcZsWNa6raUmxgCLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bat%2Bcatio%2Bdoor.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Pat was upset to think that Monty was cold and also hungry. So she began leaving food out for him, and eventually she was able to trap him!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sf-3KkJQpuw/WxhhCr3r94I/AAAAAAAAHHY/dGJyN271UfYbj74P7ocjpkpZMFBNiHLUQCLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bin%2Bkennel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1493" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sf-3KkJQpuw/WxhhCr3r94I/AAAAAAAAHHY/dGJyN271UfYbj74P7ocjpkpZMFBNiHLUQCLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bin%2Bkennel.jpg" width="372" /></a></div>
<br />
Then Pat arranged for Monty to be neutered and vaccinated at a TNR clinic sponsored by the Cat Action Team of PEI. We were all relieved to hear that Monty tested negative for disease!<br />
<br />
But Monty was too wild to live indoors, so Pat released him back into our yard, where he seems to have taken up permanent residence.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CiROPRV6thQ/WxhhdGBHrSI/AAAAAAAAHHg/QKiXQ77RW0Yr2u2dZiSm99ap9JTqBFvCACLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bon%2Bthe%2Bdeck.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1187" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CiROPRV6thQ/WxhhdGBHrSI/AAAAAAAAHHg/QKiXQ77RW0Yr2u2dZiSm99ap9JTqBFvCACLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bon%2Bthe%2Bdeck.JPG" width="296" /></a></div>
<br />
Monty has learned to climb up on top of our catio and meow at the upstairs windows when he wants Pat to come down and feed him.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vJwb40ogPmA/Wxhh10aItsI/AAAAAAAAHHw/p0wpDg79668edTQn4w-EaOgLZkeX2bHKgCLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bnear%2Bwindow.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1365" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vJwb40ogPmA/Wxhh10aItsI/AAAAAAAAHHw/p0wpDg79668edTQn4w-EaOgLZkeX2bHKgCLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bnear%2Bwindow.JPG" width="340" /></a></div>
<br />
Fortunately, he seems, since his visit to the veterinarian, to have decided that it is more convenient to demand food during the day instead of in the middle of the night. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MeVY8ZVAc0Q/WxhhuDzeUEI/AAAAAAAAHHs/hXea5YMssiUpTjbQyuMeYvWGtRcygk8zwCEwYBhgL/s1600/Monty%2Bon%2Bpen.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1330" data-original-width="1600" height="332" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MeVY8ZVAc0Q/WxhhuDzeUEI/AAAAAAAAHHs/hXea5YMssiUpTjbQyuMeYvWGtRcygk8zwCEwYBhgL/s400/Monty%2Bon%2Bpen.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Sometimes Monty will venture into the garage:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-D_-7f981bIE/WxhiFSbdTvI/AAAAAAAAHH4/4jY_PrSekB8zUNXG56JwvEM1aGdicQy_wCLcBGAs/s1600/Monty%2Bin%2Bgarage.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1091" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-D_-7f981bIE/WxhiFSbdTvI/AAAAAAAAHH4/4jY_PrSekB8zUNXG56JwvEM1aGdicQy_wCLcBGAs/s400/Monty%2Bin%2Bgarage.JPG" width="272" /></a></div>
<br />
Once in a long while, he even lets Pat stroke his head while he is eating. <br />

Pat hopes that by the time cold weather comes again, she will have persuaded Monty to move inside, or at least into the garage.<br />
<br />
We are not so sure that is such a good idea.<br />

This fall, work began on replacing our deck and expanding our catio. <br />
<br />
First, the old deck was removed and a new deck was built. Like the old deck, the new deck is L-shaped, wrapping around the side of the house:
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
In these pictures you can see the door that leads from the kitchen to the deck, and the screen door that separates the deck from our original catio:

<br />
The next step was to enclose the new deck, in order to make it an extension of the catio:<br />

The following two pictures show the doors that lead from the family room on to the deck, at the side of the house:<br />

Previously, although we cats could enter the original catio through windows or through our cat door, there was no direct access for humans from inside the house. And we cats were unable to join humans sitting on the deck.<br />
<br />
Now we -- and also humans! -- can go directly out to the new, enclosed deck + catio, either from the kitchen, or from the family room: <br />

<br />
<br />
We cats have had quite a shock. <br />
<br />
Yesterday Pat and Henry were gone for a long time in the late afternoon.<br />
<br />
When they came home they kissed and hugged each of us. But they didn't tell us where they had gone or why. <br />
<br />
This morning we patiently waited for them to get dressed and come downstairs.<br />
<br />
Then we ran to the door, expecting to go out as usual. <br />
<br />
To our amazement, Pat started crying and announced that we are not going outside EVER AGAIN and that from now on we must be content to play in the pen.<br />
<br />
When we demanded an explanation, Pat told us that Tootsie has left us and will not return.<br />
<br />
That can't be true, we replied. We realized Tootsie didn't come back inside yesterday morning when all the rest of us did. But it's not the first time Toots has gone off on her own.<br />
<br />
Despite being loving and affectionate not only to Pat and Henry but also to every other cat in the clowder, Tootsie has always been the most independent and daring of us all. <br />
<br />
Back in 2011, Toots disappeared for several days and nights in a row. <br />
<br />
Pat assumed then that Tootsie was gone for good.<br />
<br />
In fact, Pat posted an entry -- "<a href="http://srebrnik.blogspot.ca/2011/06/tootsie-is-missing.html">Our Tootsie is Missing</a>" -- that concluded, "Dear, sweet, brave, beautiful, far-too-adventurous girl . . . we hope you have suffered no pain. We hope that somewhere you are happy."<br />
<br />
But in 2011, the Toots came home.<br />
<br />
Pat thought that Tootsie had mellowed in recent years, and that in the hour or two we were allowed out most mornings to race around the yard and climb trees (Tootsie was really, really good at climbing trees), she stayed safely in our back yard.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZP_kl3zbAyU/VjJgTusfHYI/AAAAAAAAGro/RuKtd-MdzGo/s1600/Tootse%2Bhangs%2Bon.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZP_kl3zbAyU/VjJgTusfHYI/AAAAAAAAGro/RuKtd-MdzGo/s400/Tootse%2Bhangs%2Bon.JPG" width="393" /></a></div>
<br />
But Pat was wrong. <br />
<br />
And now, when all of us insist that Tootsie is certain to reappear sooner or later at the back door, Pat says this time is different.<br />
<br />
When we ask Pat to explain, she says Tootsie had an accident, and then she starts crying all over again. <br />
<br />
When she is able to stop crying she will post more pictures in memory of Tootsie.<br />
<br />

FINALLY in August there were a couple of weeks of hot weather, and we tried to make the most of it, but Pat complained that she didn't even have enough time to get good pictures of us: <br />

assumed the little calico girl was lost, so they advertised and advertised,
hoping the little cat’s people would step forward to re-claim her.</div>

</xml><![endif]--> And Pat remembered how,
in 2006, at a time when she and Henry intended only to foster kitties and not adopt
anyone permanently, Pat met Farah, who was in very big trouble: </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
</div>
Already a mature girl, suffering the painful side effects of having been declawed as a kitten,
and terrified at having been dropped off to live in a kennel at the Prince Edward Island Humane
Society, Farah screamed whenever anyone so much as looked at her.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br />
No wonder,
then, that Farah was thought to be un-adoptable.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
Farah had run out of
options.<br />
<br />
So Pat, who was volunteering at the Humane Society, brought Farah
home, and told her that she was welcome to be as cranky and unfriendly as she
wished.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
For a long time
Farah remained easily frightened, especially of all other cats.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> And when Farah was frightened, she SHRIEKED so loudly that we all ran for cover! </span><br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
But Pat
and Henry loved her anyway, and Farah became the first of us to be permanently
adopted.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
In time we all became accustomed to her funny ways, and now that she is gone, we miss our bright-eyed, cantankerous Fair-Bear.</div>

To return to the
story of the homeless little calico:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
Pat didn’t even tell
Henry that a new cat would be arriving at our house on January 13.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
Because no new cat
joins us without being tested for contagious diseases, Pat had already made an appointment
for her to go to the Charlottetown Veterinary Clinic that very afternoon. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
Which turned out to
be even more necessary than Pat realized, because when the little calico arrived at our house, Pat could
see that she was limping badly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
When she was
examined, it was clear that during her time outdoors, she had been attacked by
a much larger animal, probably a coyote: there were deep bite marks on her
right hind leg. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
And when she was x-rayed, the veterinarian saw something that
he says he has never seen before:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
Although there were
deep indentations where big teeth had penetrated into the bone, the leg did not
break, nor did the wound become infected.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">We will always wonder: how did this little girl manage to escape with her life? </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
She was immediately put on
antibiotics and pain medicine and in a few days she was feeling much better.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MBLFoSA7ey4/VNZXvtarLGI/AAAAAAAAGZg/bqwWgbE1TNI/s1600/Reese%2Bbasket%2Bmirrored.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MBLFoSA7ey4/VNZXvtarLGI/AAAAAAAAGZg/bqwWgbE1TNI/s1600/Reese%2Bbasket%2Bmirrored.JPG" width="346" /></a></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
Henry was at first
unhappy to find a new cat living in the house, but soon he realized that he
loved this sweet little calico who had been through so much.</div>
<br />
In fact, it was Henry who decided that she should be called "Reese Cup-Cake."<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
The bigger problem
was, whether Reese would get along with all of us other Pat’s Cats.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
For over a week Reese lived
inside a walk-in closet, with her own food and water and scratching post and blankets and litter box.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0cm; text-indent: 0cm;">
But for the past couple of weeks she has been free to roam the house with the rest of us. And although there have
been a few stand-offs, and a few warning yelps, we are working things out.</div>

When our pen was developed in 2008, the section nearest to the garage was left pretty bare, as you can see in the following photo:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So this summer, Pat decided it was time to build something over there for us to play on.<br />
<br />
Pat had a meeting with our usual contractors -- Dean Smith Carpentry Services -- and plans were made to build a new structure right up against the wall of the pen. The plans called for:<br />
<br />
--three stories<br />
<br />
--entrances on the front of the structure to each of the three stories, opening on to ...<br />
<br />
--three balconies <br />
<br />
--side entrances to the top story and to the bottom story<br />
<br />
--new planks connecting the two side entrances to our already existing system of walkways<br />
<br />
--peepholes on the back of the new structure, so that we can spy on the next door neighbors<br />
<br />
--strategically cut holes inside the structure, between the first and second stories and the second and third stories, so that we can leap between the different levels <br />
<br />
Dean and his associate Mark got right to work and completed the new structure in just a day and a half!<br />
<br />
Here is what the new structure looked like before we moved in. We think the staggered balconies are a really great design feature:<br />

<br />
The next picture, taken from outside the pen, shows the peepholes on the back of the new structure:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Hershey was the first to go inside: <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZB92XWrc-6M/U9aFbP1I62I/AAAAAAAAGRI/B8c_fv4kkM8/s1600/Hersh+on+third+floor.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZB92XWrc-6M/U9aFbP1I62I/AAAAAAAAGRI/B8c_fv4kkM8/s1600/Hersh+on+third+floor.JPG" width="300" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you look carefully at the next two pictures, which show Cocoa and Taffy inspecting the new structure, you can see a bit of Hershey's tail, just inside the top right entrance:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
In the following picture, Hershey exits from the side door of the top story:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Here is a view of the side entrance to the bottom story; the plank from the top side entrance is overhead:<br />

<br />
On top of the new structure, there is plenty of space for perching and sprawling. We can also leap, from the top of the structure, to the walkway that passes above it:<br />

Pat thinks that maybe we are becoming more "mature." (Which doesn't sound like all that much fun to us, actually.)<br />

But today something happened that made Pat think, perhaps we are not such good cats after all . . . in fact, Pat says that this morning we were very BAD!<br />

Here is how it all started.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
We were playing in the back yard when suddenly, Dan (on the right, in the picture below) spotted a big, beautiful SKUNK (on the left):<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wvhH-tx8O4k/U8qo5UPtcYI/AAAAAAAAGPk/rDyQ5IgRuZ0/s1600/1287+dan+comes+near.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="307" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wvhH-tx8O4k/U8qo5UPtcYI/AAAAAAAAGPk/rDyQ5IgRuZ0/s1600/1287+dan+comes+near.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
We were all so excited that we came running to get a better look (CLICK the picture to enlarge it):<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4NL4vyD3SkQ/U8pS_tgIf5I/AAAAAAAAGLI/Q5_xFWDE0ec/s1600/1288+surround1.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="220" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4NL4vyD3SkQ/U8pS_tgIf5I/AAAAAAAAGLI/Q5_xFWDE0ec/s1600/1288+surround1.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
In no time at all, we had the Skunk surrounded.<br />
<br />
And then - the Skunk lifted her tail! She STAMPED her feet! <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YjL_qYbAZp8/U8pVZAv73BI/AAAAAAAAGMA/BzZv1cf9ymY/s1600/1292.tail%252C+stamp.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="261" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YjL_qYbAZp8/U8pVZAv73BI/AAAAAAAAGMA/BzZv1cf9ymY/s1600/1292.tail%252C+stamp.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Pat started calling for us to get away, QUICKLY!<br />
<br />
But we stood our ground, until -- the Skunk turned tail and scurried off!<br />
<br />
The Skunk ducked underneath the deck of our next door neighbor! And naturally, we followed:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-b9q-r1CwQs0/U8pTn365cbI/AAAAAAAAGLw/6herZRh4MSQ/s1600/1297+cats+approach+deck.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-b9q-r1CwQs0/U8pTn365cbI/AAAAAAAAGLw/6herZRh4MSQ/s1600/1297+cats+approach+deck.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
In fact - Dandy and Cocoa went right underneath the deck after the Skunk!<br />
<br />
Pat was SO alarmed at the thought of Dan and Cocoa being confined with the Skunk in such a small place . . . but then . . . the Skunk calmly strolled out from under the deck, observed by Tessa and Dolly:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JmBB6HclAO8/U8pWI3m2HBI/AAAAAAAAGME/yIpM0sHNTbw/s1600/1299+skunk+emerges.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="257" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JmBB6HclAO8/U8pWI3m2HBI/AAAAAAAAGME/yIpM0sHNTbw/s1600/1299+skunk+emerges.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
The Skunk headed around the corner and across the front of the next door neighbor's yard:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ynx3fKAbQ-I/U8pWfmG2KwI/AAAAAAAAGMM/bC9JKxa7R9Y/s1600/1300+skunk+departs1.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ynx3fKAbQ-I/U8pWfmG2KwI/AAAAAAAAGMM/bC9JKxa7R9Y/s1600/1300+skunk+departs1.JPG" width="262" /></a></div>
<br />
So of course we hurried after her:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ke1ojIwsgwk/U8pXC8DDiII/AAAAAAAAGMU/0lP-f5Yxkzo/s1600/1301+cats+in+pursuit4.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="361" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ke1ojIwsgwk/U8pXC8DDiII/AAAAAAAAGMU/0lP-f5Yxkzo/s1600/1301+cats+in+pursuit4.JPG" width="400" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Which is when Pat gave up and ran away herself!<br />
<br />
Pat was SO relieved when, one by one, we each came wandering back. . . .<br />
<br />
Pat told us that the Skunk has more sense than we do!<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S1QLg0niEog/U8qN48eE0eI/AAAAAAAAGPE/jFSnTDoEK3E/s1600/Tess+excited.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="362" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S1QLg0niEog/U8qN48eE0eI/AAAAAAAAGPE/jFSnTDoEK3E/s1600/Tess+excited.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tessa</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Then Pat said that any cat who gets sprayed by the Skunk will have to take a bath in hydrogen peroxide + baking soda!<br />
<br />
And that's not all: any cat who gets sprayed will have to live full time in the pen, not coming into the house until the bad smell disappears! <br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kX3H4LnKdzE/U8qvONeueNI/AAAAAAAAGP0/eYxcTqxi5iQ/s1600/living+in+the+pen.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="330" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kX3H4LnKdzE/U8qvONeueNI/AAAAAAAAGP0/eYxcTqxi5iQ/s1600/living+in+the+pen.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Dandy, Cocoa</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Which leaves us wondering: is it worth the risk to continue playing with the Skunk?<br />
<br />
Maybe!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
every morning (between 6 and 6:30 a.m), Pat puts on our collars and we DASH out into the yard, eager to see if we can find Skunk!<br />
<br />
And on two different mornings in the week following our first encounter, we did find Skunk, poking about in one or another of the groves.<br />
<br />
As a result of Skunk's poking, lots of tasty insects flew into the sky -- insects which we chased and caught and ate!<br />
<br />
Pat says she is very happy that Skunk made the choice to ignore us completely.<br />
<br />
But we were NOT so happy -- because -- we wanted Skunk to play with us!<br />
<br />
Dan was particularly insistent. He repeatedly dashed right up to Skunk. He jumped up and down in front of her, he ran in circles around her . . . hoping that Skunk would respond: it would have been SO much fun if Skunk had decided to CHASE Dan!<br />
<br />
but all Skunk did was turn her back on Dan and wander off in a different direction . . . still poking in the leaves for insects ....<br />
<br />
which gratified Pat but not us .... <br />
<br />
And now it has been several days since we saw Skunk.<br />
<br />
Pat warned us this would happen: she said Skunk would move out of the neighborhood if we didn't stop pestering her!<br />
<br />
we are still hoping that one of these mornings Skunk will change her mind and re-join us in the back yard ....<br />

So disturbing that instead of providing you with pictures of what our basement looks like right now (the insurance agent has taken plenty of those), we are illustrating this post, as usual, with beautiful, recent pictures of ourselves (be sure to click the pictures to enlarge them):<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gUOk3YQKKLw/UUNg1iv-EtI/AAAAAAAAFpE/S3KLhiHZfKM/s1600/IMG_0482.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gUOk3YQKKLw/UUNg1iv-EtI/AAAAAAAAFpE/S3KLhiHZfKM/s400/IMG_0482.JPG" width="337" /></a></div>
<br />
<b>NEWS FLASH</b>: As we explained in our previous blog entry, it snowed a lot this winter! And we have been eager for the weather to improve.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uAQDiw7jg9w/UUNhSwNaOvI/AAAAAAAAFps/te5XsMJatAM/s1600/IMG_0476.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="270" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uAQDiw7jg9w/UUNhSwNaOvI/AAAAAAAAFps/te5XsMJatAM/s320/IMG_0476.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
So, we were excited to see the temperatures go up and up during the past week or so. It was warm out there in our pen all night long!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rJKEiQ4RInU/UVSR21STvXI/AAAAAAAAFuA/IK99zIQzDEc/s1600/Tess+&+Doll.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rJKEiQ4RInU/UVSR21STvXI/AAAAAAAAFuA/IK99zIQzDEc/s400/Tess+&+Doll.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
But we were not so happy as the piles of snow in our yard began turning into big, muddy pools of water.<br />
<br />
We became downright unhappy when, overnight on Wednesday, March 13, it rained and rained and rained. Rained really hard. The ground in our pen got soaking wet.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-51YEKiuFTGw/UUNg2lpVG3I/AAAAAAAAFpU/P4dpSQH_G5I/s1600/IMG_0483.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="301" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-51YEKiuFTGw/UUNg2lpVG3I/AAAAAAAAFpU/P4dpSQH_G5I/s400/IMG_0483.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Even worse: <br />
<br />
As the night-time hours passed we realized (because we were awake and playing and running all over the house), something Pat did not yet know (because she was sound asleep upstairs): ground water was rising higher and higher into the basement, even in the places where Pat puts eight of our twelve litter boxes!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-c4jnqBgn5Y8/UUNg1NE8ZAI/AAAAAAAAFpA/VpkjvtxatNA/s1600/IMG_0478.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="313" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-c4jnqBgn5Y8/UUNg1NE8ZAI/AAAAAAAAFpA/VpkjvtxatNA/s400/IMG_0478.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
It wasn’t until Pat got up on Thursday morning and went downstairs to clean our litter boxes (always her first job of the day), that she saw we couldn’t get to the boxes without wading through an inch of water.<br />
<br />
Then Pat got as upset as we already were!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-d1tHDuS4-jY/UVSpP1-CTMI/AAAAAAAAFvA/AcRO3RE1TFI/s1600/Nash+on+Cupboards.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-d1tHDuS4-jY/UVSpP1-CTMI/AAAAAAAAFvA/AcRO3RE1TFI/s400/Nash+on+Cupboards.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Once again, lots of men came to the house, with noisy machines. These machines are supposed to drain all the water out of the basement and dry all the moisture out of the air. <br />
<br />
Pat says this is just the first step: next week, all the laminate wood flooring will be pulled up, and new flooring will be installed.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dVnDnJaHPZI/UUNg1JJ3XeI/AAAAAAAAFo8/lOyedUO699Q/s1600/IMG_0481.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="352" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dVnDnJaHPZI/UUNg1JJ3XeI/AAAAAAAAFo8/lOyedUO699Q/s400/IMG_0481.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Pat tries to comfort us by telling us that we are not the only ones to be flooded. According to the newspaper that magically appears in our mailbox every morning – the Charlottetown <i>Guardian</i> – homes all over the Island have been flooded. In many homes the water is much higher and the damage is much worse than in our house.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u_Z_hytAlmw/UUNg3FPMwGI/AAAAAAAAFpg/KDxzmJ_Sy8I/s1600/IMG_0486.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u_Z_hytAlmw/UUNg3FPMwGI/AAAAAAAAFpg/KDxzmJ_Sy8I/s400/IMG_0486.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Meanwhile, so long as the machines are running in the basement, none of us are allowed to go down there. Pat says we must use the litter boxes upstairs and in the garage. And, she has put new litter boxes in the ground floor laundry room.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GT-ZrKkiyxg/UVSpXs-HGXI/AAAAAAAAFvI/e7OWTuglxq8/s1600/Stair+Play.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GT-ZrKkiyxg/UVSpXs-HGXI/AAAAAAAAFvI/e7OWTuglxq8/s400/Stair+Play.JPG" width="328" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The biggest problem is that we have lost an entire floor and an entire staircase where we played our games all night long!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HmtYUheH54o/UVSV3GTUpNI/AAAAAAAAFuw/-imkLg2xkbY/s1600/Sum+&+Toots.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HmtYUheH54o/UVSV3GTUpNI/AAAAAAAAFuw/-imkLg2xkbY/s400/Sum+&+Toots.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
So, Pat has done the only thing she can think of to keep us entertained: she went out and bought us new toys, which you can see in these pictures. And for now we do much of our playing in the ground-floor family room.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The final straw: The temperature has fallen once more and we just looked out the windows to see that it is SNOWING AGAIN!<br />
<br />
