Peaches Steals Clam Chowder and More!

Peaches here.  I regret to inform you I have been accused of committing a crime. WATER THEFT!!!! (Caught in the act!)



MOM CAROL'S CASE:  I have given Peaches FIVE bowls of her OWN water.  What' up with drinnking mine????   At nearly 16 year old, she has NEVER done this...but PAPRIKA Has!
PEACHES' CASEWell I have always stuck to social protocol...but that soundrel PAPRIKA has been drinking from MY waterbowl (ILLEGALLY) when she has several of her own. ThiS here is MY desk perch,  And look what happens! REGULARLY! I made it clear I want nothing to do with this!

Paprika in Action:

PAPRIKA'S CASE
"IT'S A FREE COUNTRY!"  Peaches water happens to taste BETTER than mine (for some reason). Plus, I like the thrill of the THEFT!  I am essentially innocent. Look into my innocent eyes...

MOM CAROL:  And that's not the WORST of it.
After sticking a paw into MY DRINK, she THEN proceeded to stick the same paw into my lunch - CLAM CHOWDER!  I was TOO SHOCKED to take a picture.  At age 16, she has never stuck a paw into anything like that.  Though I  couldn't catch her in the clam chowder theft act on camera, I did manage to document her water crime:

PEACHES: I have evidence of where I learned this trick.  Just look at the scene Mom Carol caught on videotape last week.  I rest my case, (note: video of Paprika's crime)


OUTSIDER'S COMMENT about these two crime scenes, ESPECIALLY Peaches new Paw into Owners food and Drink behavior: ... sudden descent into chowder piracy at age sixteen. If Paprika had done it, you’d almost expect it. But Peaches doing it has the energy of a retired school principal suddenly shoplifting shrimp cocktail.

PEACHES:  It's about time I started observing and copying my sis-fur Paprika's little tricks. Even though I'll be 16 soon.  I like to keep the humans guessing...

Cats Can Serve as Purr-fect "Morning Heaters"

Good morning, Paprika here.  One valuable service we provide is FREE HEATING SERVICES in the cold early mornings. I, Paprika spend the night in this room, but come 5am, Peaches creeps in on the RIGHT side and helps warm the human.
Besides fulfilling our job as "heaters" (we "lie" on both the left arm and the right arm) - brilliant move to warm AND trap human!

The morning visitation, of course, is not without SOME drama amongst us Sisters.



Mom Carol:  Despite declaring a "truce" and occupying the same bed at the same time, there is trouble in paradise. From my vantage point I notice the slightly tilted ears...they're on "HIGH ALERT"

Peaches here.  My sister Paprika has occupied the bed all night.  This "morning heating" time should be mine.  Yet...she's still HERE!
Paprika:  The answer to Peaches' question is really easy!


I decided to plead my case to my human! I DO have a case.

Whiskers! Turned down...again! - Peaches the cat.


We returned peacefully to the task of HEATING THE BED and the human. You can't win 'em all!  The important thing is...we kept her REALLY WARM on a cold day. -- Peaches the Cat
