Flynn: One of our furry impawtunt mancat jobs is to check that the straw in the barn is good quality. 
Eric: We check that there is nuffin there that shouldn't be there.
Sometimes we just sit quietly at the top of the ladder to make sure no introoders come in.
And on the way down, we smell the straw in case there are any mice hiding in there. It's impawtunt to check furr mice cuz sometimes they chew the string that holds the straw bales together, then when dad picks them up they break. That yooshully makes him say bad words.
When we go back down the ladder, we haf to be keerful cuz it's easier to go up than down.
Flynn: I am better at going down ladders than Eric.If he tries to go down too quick, he ends up down the bottom quicker than he meant to.The random photo this week has been chosen by the Trout Towne Tabbies who asked for 14.02.09 and shows one of Flynn's weird and wonderful sleeping positions.

clearly you guys made farm life much much easier!! so helpful!
ReplyDeleteThose boys sure had many a fun barn party!
ReplyDeleteoh boy a barn hunt... that would be something for us...
ReplyDeleteThe boys were great at patrolling!
ReplyDeleteExcellent work!
ReplyDeleteYour comment that Dad says bad words when the string breaks reminds me of the child who wrote a letter to G-d asking if her daddy would go to heaven if he used his bowling words in the house.
Those gorgeous boys sure did a great job keeping an eye on the straw in the barn. Amazing they could get DOWN and UP the ladder too. They were acrobats (or acrocats??!!). Great photos.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Teddy and Mom too
All that straw gets us in the mood for our next barn hunt practice in a few days. We love playing around in the bales and then all of the sudden we find hidden rats! Sweet photos of the cats in the bales.
ReplyDeleteAww! great memories and shennanigans they were perfect at patrolling :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a securitytastic safe weekend 😷😷😷
You sort of give new meaning to "barn raising", like raising trouble up in the haystacks maybe! Or is that just your job?
ReplyDeleteMOL Up on the hay stack..would make a great rendition of Up on the house top!!

The barn must have been Heaven for the boys with all those smells. No wonder they hung out in it so much.
ReplyDeleteOh Flynnie! TW thinks I sleep strangely sometimes but I've yet to try that pose.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, no ladders for this old gal! I have a hard enough time getting down of mom's or dad's chairs. Wonderful flashback as always.
ReplyDeleteGoing down ladders can be tricky.
ReplyDeleteGreat flashback and I like the random photo too. That was an odd sleeping position, but as long as he was comfortable. Thank you for the puzzle. XO
ReplyDeleteWonderful memories and art!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a time consuming and important job checking those hay bales!

ReplyDeleteWhat fun you boys had in that barn!
ReplyDeleteThe art this week is purrticularly lovely.
BOys, you made life a lot easier for your dad with all your inspections and patrols. I know he was grateful.
ReplyDeleteMews: Ooh, ooh, Dad can we have a barn?
ReplyDeleteDad: No. A barn wouldn't have the heated waterbed.
Mews: Oh, OK...
LOL!
What a hard working mancat! You are such an impawtunt member of the family!
ReplyDeleteI'm here for a dose of impawtunt catspeak and lovely Caturday art. Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteEric and Flynn sure were good at protecting the hay. I love your art. I need to try mixing effects like that. Thanks for the puzzle. Wishing you a happy and healthy new year! XO
