Such an adorable criminal. I thought for sure she was going to say candlestick, It’s ALWAYS with the candlestick. Or at least it should be. And Papa Pucky is right. It IS naptime.
OZ has been watching someone playing Clue, I see… or do you call it Cluedo? I have a PC version of the game, and whenever it turns out that my avatar is the guilty party, it comes up with a message that I am reminded of here — “I see you’ve turned yourself in. Very honorable.”
The woman must be slipping. Under the couch would have been the first place I would have looked! Will Elvis be rewarded for finding it and batting it back out from under the couch, or will he get the blame for putting it there in the first place?
Earlier in the story arc I was thinking to myself isn’t OZ more Moriarity than Holmes? but thought maybe that was mean-spirited. However, now that Uncle Puck came to the same conclusion …
It would be fun to see a Big Pink House version of Clue. The suspects would feature Puck, Elvis, Lupin, Goldie, and OZ (Iggy’s too nice to kill anyone.) The rooms are self-evident, and the victim could be either Buzzy Mouse, or a houseplant. As for weapons … hm … hairballs come to mind. And OZ’s chainsaw. Would a bag of kebble be lethal? Ugh.
I lost my response to my post. Seems like when I try to respond to a post, I’m deleted and restarted without the post response. Is this something new? Or is it a way of not letting me respond to a post?

…more importantly, who let Ora Zella play Clue??? And how many players did she attack before the game was called on account of tortie?

OZ just wanted to be a Junior detective so she could solve her own case.

The red ball with a black thing sticking out of it looks like a cherry bomb. The white fluff, no idea.

In this case, I think “Nap time” is a euphemism for “Time Out.” And while you’re at it, Pucky, confiscate all incendiary devices. Please.

Is Ora Zella a criminal mastermind? I didn’t see that coming.

Ora Zella, the criminal mastermind. I wonder if our resident smol cat is like that in real life.

Some cats bug her, some cats hug her
She thinks that’s okay
If they don’t let her light her smoke bombs
She just finds a way
They can beg and they can plead
But they’ll soon see the light (that’s right)
’Cause when she does something rash
It always feels so right
’Cause we are living in a trivial world
And she is a spontaneous girl
You know that we are living in a rules-based world
But she’s an undeterred girl
Things may come, and things may go
And that’s no mystery
Cats have smacked our stuff like that
All through history
You know that we are living in a conventional world
But she’s an unconventional girl
we are living in a serious world
And she is one hysterical girl
Living with cute OZ girl (ah)
Living in Ora Zella’s world
So hysterical, girl

Called it. Ora Zella is such a scamp. Still, Elvis might as well check for other lost items as long as he’s under the couch.

Ah yes, just like the firefighters who set fires so they can put them out. Ora Zella, a criminal in the making.
