Tuesdays with Tigris - Another Week
The Lady was very busy last week and was barely home. She said life is going to slow down a bit now. I had to tolerate late dinners and late breakfasts, besides the hat tax. May we be back into our routine soon.

Mischief Monday - A Belated Thank You - by Styx
Hi friends, hi friends, hi friends,
I am delayed in giving this thanks because the Lady, who is the controller of the purse was a bit delayed in her part of this. I hope this post makes up for the delay!
Cecilia won my "When will the Snow be Gone" contest and was generous and donated her prize to the charity of our choice in memory of Hailey and Zaphod. We love, so, so, so many charities that help animals, but in the end, Lady made a donation to the Ottawa Paw Pantry. Thank you Cecilia for letting us help feed animals in need.
Now, to make up for this delay, Lady thought we could say sorry by share us wearing some costumes she found in the Paw Pantry storage unit when cleaning it out. She bought them in the "pre-sale" for an upcoming garage sale. These are dog costumes. Lady laughed so hard she cried.
We hope this makes up for the delay.
Thanks again Cecilia for your generosity.

Nature Friday - Spring, Spring, Spring - Styx and Lanie
Hi friends, hi friends, hi friends,
It is your best buddy Styx, who would never be forgotten and Lanie too! We have been spending a lot of time by the window as it is open, open, open and spring is in the air!
Lady snapped the following pictures for us to share with you.

Lanie's Log - Happy Enough
It has been over 200 days since my imprisonment. It feels like only yesterday I was a wild cat, and here I am, living as a house cat.
While I did not appreciate my original capture, I have assimilated well. If you can't beat them join them.

| Hanging out |
I spend most of my day out of my room. I really like the upstairs now. I usually eat my breakfast and dinner up there. I love to play with the Wardens and Styx (I would like to play with Gris, but she says no). I also love to watch out the window, especially when it is open. While I like looking, I don't really want to go outside.
I am even getting caught doing things I shouldn't. Can you spot me in this picture?
Life is good enough for now. I think being part of a clowder (a group of cats) helps.
The Lady Warden's Dad gave her this:
Some would say she is already there.

Tuesday's with Tigris - I am a Tiger
Reader,
Sometimes my people forget I am 95.6% tiger. I can look cute and still be fierce.

Lady and I were having a good play the other day, and I reminded her that like my river namesake I am fast, arrow like and swift, which are also tiger like things. I got her really good. There was blood.

I didn't feel bad about it, even if it resulted in the torture of nail cutting. This is what she gets for bringing a Lanie into my kingdom.
