Remember the NZ gentlecat burglars? Embarrassing evidence #18

[Edwina's Secretary]

Darlings...

Orange is a very hard color for most to wear - except those already decked in orange fur of course.

Really...cute and camp and all...but Davy Crockett is so last year!

Either of you could carry off the blues though...a really good look...

Fashionably yours...

A cat with one hat? Why, that's kid stuff for sure.
If you need a warm hat, come to Ruby's Hat Store!
Come look through my stock, and you'll find in a jiffy
A soft, comfy hat that will make you look spiffy!

Columbine- I love your seussical poem

And now it is getting X-rated:
Hats is one thing- but what Ruby brought now should rather cover the other end. :


I am not so sure about her own private taste- it's rather colorful.
What I can be sure of is the taste of her purrents: they obviously chose the colors of the house to go with two adorable kitties:

I am more convinced than ever that these gentlecats are the victims here. The interpretation of pictures is such an important element of today's news. These photographs have clearly been taken out of context - possibly from Ruby and Vinnie's website - and been allowed to convey the impression that Ruby and Vinnie engage in criminal activity.

I think Edwina's Secretary guessed correctly that these items are intended for markets in the northern hemisphere, where they will be bought by grateful kitties for their loving owners for Christmas. Ruby and Vinnie are working round the clock to satisfy the demand and occasionally have to take a quick nap to recharge their batteries.

I think these babies are the victims both of a jealous rival vendor and of very sloppy journalistic practice.
