Katie: Victimized Again

Hi everyone, Katie here.

I feel I need to apprise you of my situation. This new Waffles TOO character, well...I have reason to believe he's hiding a criminal past. 

I'm not really a paranoid kitty. Well, maybe a little. Only if someone is following me. Or calling my name. Or looking at me. Whatever...paranoia aside, someone is out to get me.

Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched? I do. Every minute of every hour of every day. Except when the pea-eyed monster sleeps. 

I hear footsteps. All the time. Sometimes they're slow, soft, hardly audible.  Other times, it's like a herd of wild horses wearing high heels. Yet, I can't see a thing. 

Glogirly says it's all in my imagination. 

I know better. I don't have an imagination. I have a stalker. An orange, pea-eyed, maniacal stalker.

I'm certain he's touched my tail when I wasn't looking. Sniffed my whiskers when I was sleeping. He's been drinking my water and eating my food too. There's no telling what he's capable of. 

Sure, I can defend myself. I've had seven years of feline martial arts training. I have a black & white belt.

But I'm a lady. I try to conduct myself with a certain ... decorum. 

Therefore I have no other choice than to seek assistance through the appropriate legal channels. 

Cathy Keisha – expect my call.

The Story Unfolds

Hi everyone, Katie here.

In an attempt to shed light on the uncertainty behind the recent allegations launched against me, TMZ has just released the following video.  Police are searching for the unknown assailant, believed to be caught on tape for just a fraction of a second.  If you have any information as to the identity or whereabouts of this long, grey-haired interloper, please contact the authorities at once.

Lock your doors. Arm your security systems. Bring out the ::dare I say:: the dogs.
NO ONE is safe.

Awaiting Arraignment

Hi everyone, Katie here.

On Tuesday evening I was released on bond for charges of Shoelace Tampering.  I was in good spirits and confident a clean dismissal was imminent.  That is until today.  I was made aware of new charges that are being brought against me unrelated to the shoelaces.  Far more serious allegations.  Of murder.

That's right, murder.

Let me start by assuring you I didn't do it.  Based on circumstantial evidence though, my future may be hanging in the balance.  Plus Gloman is out of town so as much as I'd like to, I can't blame him.

Let me walk you through the events of the past 24 hours.

09:00am - Breakfast as usual.  Grain free kibble. One small piece of freeze dried salmon.  Water.

09:15am - Rolled around on the kitchen rug looking cute.

10:00am - Pre-nap preparations in Glogirly's bed.

10:05am - Glogirly left the townhouse for the gym.

10:06am - 12:22pm - Deep napping.

12:23pm - Glogirly returned to the townhouse.

12:24pm - Glogirly shrieked, "OMG, a MOUSE!   OMG, OMG, OMG a MOUSE!"

12:25pm - Glogirly shrieked, "KATIE, WHAT DID YOU DO?"

12:26pm - Woken from my slumber TWO floors up, I descended the steps to find out what the fluff was going on.

12:27pm - Discovery of the remains. A small lifeless body I'VE never seen before lay limp on the tile floor.

12:28pm - Initial assessment showed no signs of foul play.  Or any play for that matter.

Well here we go again. I'm currently awaiting arraignment. Three strikes if you count the ribbon incident and the shoelace tampering thing.

But I swear.
I didn't do it.
I was sleeping, I tell you, sleeping.
I've never even SEEN a creature like this before.  I'm a CITY cat.
I don't know how the intruder forced his way in past security.
But I think he may have slipped in undetected when a door opened.

And then obviously poisoned himself.

Framed

Hi everyone, Katie here.

The evidence is circumstantial. Wrong place. Wrong time. I did NOT have inappropriate contact with those shoelaces. I've been framed.  

The evening was unremarkable.  Gloman and Glogirly dined on TV dinners, watching Mad Men on the DVR.  They retreated upstairs. Glogirly attended to her blogging tasks in bed. Gloman packed for a trip. His tennis shoes sat on the floor in plain view, next to the suitcase.  A bowl of popcorn and a Coke Zero later, everyone was asleep.  

Morning came and the accusations started flying.  Someone had allegedly chewed on Gloman's shoelaces. There was talk of DNA evidence, saliva.  Trace indications of black and white hair.  A nondescript cat toy positioned "randomly" next to the shoes.  

No legal representation. No judge. No jury of my peers. 

Not even a consideration of what may have REALLY happened.  

Gloman, he gets hungry in the middle of the night and it's a long way downstairs to the kitchen.  He's partial to angel hair pasta.  And have you SEEN his hair?  Mostly white with a few fleeting strands of black. And that toy? Come ON. Why not just wrap the whole crime scene up in a box and tie it with a pretty ribbon.

Oh. That's right. I've got a "prior" with a three foot strand of ribbon. Yeah, I ate it. It was pink, ok?  After the ribbon was surgically removed, the stupid Vet actually GAVE it to Gloman as a some kind of sick souvenir.  It's hermetically sealed in a Ziploc bag and tucked inside one of his drawers in the garage.  

May as well be hanging around my neck.
