Some recent pix of Bella who knows something is up, but isn't sure what.


She sure is a little beauty though!

She's not that big, just about 8 or 9 lbs. My previous cat, Ignatz, was a big fellow, 13 lbs.

By all accounts he just settled back in as if he'd not been away at all. We saw him on his rear deck on Sunday waiting patiently to be let back into the house. His family flew off to Cuba for a winter vacation early this week so Ennis and Daisy the dog are currently under the care of a house sitter.

It's interesting that my roommate Ace pulled a similar stunt earlier this century. Rather than just hanging around the neighbourhood after being let outside one Friday morning, he somehow got to the Sears store at the downtown Eaton Centre some five miles away. He was discovered by store staff late in the afternoon wandering in the hallway between the parking garage elevators and the administration office! Sears left a message for The MAN at the office but he'd already gone home. A Sears employee therefore took Ace home for the weekend. The MAN received the message on Monday and duly picked up Ace back at the Sears store on Tuesday morning. Ace though has never revealed why he had to go downtown that day. The MAN suspects that Ace caught a ride by sneaking into the backseat of a neighbour's car but Ace hasn't divulged that information either.



At the age of fifteen, Ace's wandering days are now a thing of the past. He's become a porch potato and prefers to wile away the hours in a comfy chair.

Jack, an orange tabby whom The MAN had dumped on his sister in London, had a similar escapade himself about twelve years ago. Jack hitched a ride with the fellow next door and ended up in Port Bruce thirty miles southeast of London on Lake Erie. The neighbour fellow was quite surprised to see Jack in the backseat when he got to Port Bruce. He had absolutely no idea that Jack shared his interest in snorkeling. Jack was out of luck though since the neighbour had no snorkeling gear of his size. Nonetheless, Jack got to spend a pleasant few hours at the beach with the sweet smell of dead fish wafting in the air.

Well trained agents never talk, Ace was probably stopping another THRUSH scheme.

Here is a picture from Halloween of Willie. Full name Willie Gault named after the great 80's WR for the Chicago Bears. He is a Pit bull/German Shepherd mix. Sounds ferocious but is really a big baby who likes to snuggle ,sleep and mooch whatever you happen to be eating.

By the way, in this one, she's not just laying on my bed, she's laying on top of me! That's my big toe poking out from under the blankets at the far end of the bed.

My sister's fourteen year old cat Courtney had a similar escapade back in 1998. She disappeared in June a few days after my sister moved about five miles away within the city of London, Ontario. Four months later Courtney was found in the general vicinity of my sister's previous house. A huntress supreme, Courtney wasn't much worse for her adventure. She stayed put thereafter and lived another five years or so.

The WOMAN suggested we prepare a Valentine's gift bag for Ennis so he wouldn't feel aggrieved about missing out on his Xmas gift bag:



Here's a picture of Ennis from last spring:
