We are finally settling down in the new house. We feel pretty safe here now and we even all went to the dr. in our traveling boxes -- except Jinx(sh) because she goes berserk and couldn't be caught. JJ says that a berserk 15 lb cat is a little hard to deal with. Don't tell Jinx(sh) but I heard Dr. Pete tell JJ to just bring Jinx(sh) anytime she can grab hold of her and stick her in a travelling box. Since JJ is home from work with us for a couple of days (YEAH!!) old Jinx(sh)y might be going to get a little poke in the butt! Of course, we all MUST be up-to-date on our rabies and DCR so that we can be healthy kitties.

The Cheewawa had to go and see Dr. Pete a couple of weeks ago because she had a pee problem. She would squat to pee and go and then stay squatted -- and JJ would go and have a cup of coffee and then go back outside and she was STILL in the same position. O.K. I am exaggerating but she DID feel like she had to pee pee ALL of the time. Dr. Pete gave her some teeny-tiny Cheewawa pills and she is all better now.

JJ is very sad, though, because the Lucky-Cat is missing -- the big brown tabby that doesn't like us too much. He loves to be outside where most of us aren't allowed, and one night he didn't come home and JJ said "and that's exactly why the rest of you AREN'T allowed outside." Most of us don't really care but Achilles runs out there every chance he gets. Luckily, since he only has 3 legs and a good disposition, he is easy to catch.

The big tabby has been gone 35 days!! But JJ hasn't given up hope yet. She is still putting up posters and walking and riding around the neighborhood. And Miss Jane is watching and looking for him in our old neighborhood. JJ says she will never get up but she is trying not to be depressed about it. She really, really loves that old boy -- he was her first kitty EVER and taught her how to love kitties...

JJ has been busy as usual. Working on this house and on our other house where someone else is going to live. And, of course, don't forget the ROSSO BICICLETTA -- that thing is in and out of the basement ALL the time. And, she's been getting the Blu Bicicletta out some too. JJ has a new bicycling friend, Ms. KO -- that figures that JJ would have a friend KO -- as in KNOCK OUT -- from the looks of this one, JJ and her will probably ride into one another on their biciclettas and KNOCK EACH OTHER OUT. We think she is just as happy and funny and absent minded as JJ (but we don't know yet if she is just as uncoordinated). Look out!

I have to go -- I am going to watch out the window as JJ does something with a shovel. I don't know what it is but, you know what voyeurs cats are (AND we speak French, too!)

Love you all,
Tita
