Every day, when Mom arrives home from work, she does a head count. There’s Tessa over there on the couch. Pia’s probably upstairs napping in the tower. There’s Viola sitting on Dad’s kitchen table chair. There’s . . . hmm, where’s Quint? He’s not in his fort. That’s odd.
Maybe he’s upstairs. Nope, not in Tessa’s bed upstairs, a place he sometimes shares Tessa, the Danger Cat. Quint? Quint? Where are you?
*silence*
Maybe he’s in the Cat Den. Well, there’s some ginger paws but that’s not Quint. Hi Pia. Continue your nap, please. Quint, where are you?
Quint? Quint?
Time to backtrack. Downstairs again, HEY! We think we see a lump there under that blanket! Quint, is that you?
Whew! Don’t know how you got past us the first time. You must have blended in really well with that blue blanket!

2012 – Pay No Attention to the Cat Behind the Curtain
The average human has no idea of the panic that a cat-servant gets when one is missing!
Manny is a master at using his cloaking device, and just when I’m ready to freak out, he reappears from some unknown locale.
This is why I am convinced that cats are from outer space; they have the ability to use time warps and such.
Love ya, Quint!

Glad that Quint was found! I used to panic when Flynn disappeared even though I knew he couldn’t get out of the garden.
You win a hide and seek Quint. XO
The daily head count is very important.
Nice job blending in, Quint! But we bet you gave Mom a little scare!
