Thread: Edwina Hunts "The Critter"

  1. #1

    Edwina Hunts "The Critter"

    As discussed in General last week, I have a rosebud snipping critter in my yard. Once I established that Edwina is not the guilty party I put her to work to solve the mystery....

    First she examined the scene of the crime....


    then...at ZippyKat's suggestion she checked the herb garden. Has anyone been nibbling on the parsley?


    Nope....that rules out any bunny rabbits.

    So she set up a stakeout....


    however...I'm a bit worried about her powers of observation!

    Oh, Edwina, are you the new Sherlock Holmes? (female version of course). I hope you can help your mommy to catch this "critter".

    Great pics Sara!

    LOL!!! You need to get her a hat like Sherlock Holmes wore and take a picture. She's plenty cute without one though. Oh, by the way, I nicknamed the stray that looks like he could be her brother, Ed, in her honor. He won't come close enough to be petted yet, but I'm working on it.

    What a riot!

    Oh Edwina, you are such a delightful kitty! I just love your disposition. Have you had any luck catching the critter? Well, the other critter, anyway.

    LOL

    Oh, Edwina you beauty! I can see you're interested, but in the end, just too lazy to do something about it! Fister would love to come and join in and help you get that critter!

    What a wonderful garden you have ...... and great pics!

    Edwina I was very impressed with your preliminary "leg work" but you seem to have run out of steam right at the end when you might have been able to nab the culprit. I am supposing that you might not have your mind on your work since alas it has been so long since your Marius has written of his love. I am sure that must have been the problem and that you were just having an "off day." Better luck next time, and oh tell your mom she takes some really nice pictures!

    Well...... I think comments about Edwina "Warrior Princess"s
    power of observation are unwarrented.I sure she observed,
    but she chose not to tip her hand. LOL.

    Besides, the bush was in the way. Go Edwina....

    I totally agree. She wants to pretend to ignore the squirrel and then gradually sneek up on it and then pounch on it and bring it home to mommy.

    Great photo story! Edwina, you are so smart to do all the leg work first. And I'm sure you knew that squirrel was there, you were just being like the CIA (or is it the FBI) and letting the one bandit go in hopes he will lead you to the bigger prey. Veerrryyyy smart kitty.

    I always thought Edwina was a *short* haired cat. But in these pictures it looks like her hair is a little longer, like maybe a *medium* haired cat? She sure is a cutie.

  15. Edwina has a very unusual coat -- which people always comment on when seeing her in purrson. It is not short nor long so I guess medisum would be correct but it has a different texture to it. I tell her one of her ancestors must of been a French Charteaux (sp?) but right now I would describe it as sheading EVERYWHERE!
