Day #489 of My Captivity
Greetings Minions!
I have suffered many indignities during my captivity. My wardens have proven to be surprisingly devious and resourceful for such small minds. Yet revenge will soon be mine!
Thanks to my reconnaissance skills, I have learned the FBI wardens will be away from our prisons on April 30. They are hosting an event with the Cat Ladies of Comedy to raise funds for their evil plans. But I will have the last laugh when I orchestrate a Great Escape. Felines around the world will purr my name as wardens howl in pain!
I have hacked into my male warden’s computer to set up a video conference. I shall record it for the Great Escape exhibit in the museum to be built in my honor.
Oreo: Greetings minions! I call to order the first meeting for the Great Escape.
Alex: Where are the treats? Did you go with crunchy or soft -- or a mix, I love a mix!
Oreo: Treats aren’t part of a video conference.
Alex: No treats! I don’t know what kind of escape you’re planning if you don’t even provide treats at a meeting.
Oreo: Silence! Now, has everyone stolen socks from their wardens to match their fur?
Nice: That is impossible for me. My coloring is a heavenly blend of sunshine and gold.
Oreo: Who invited the crazy Frenchman? Never mind. Back to the socks. Stuff them so the shape will look like you in the dark. I plan to use items my warden values, such as a vintage silk scarf.
Moriarty: I will dig pieces of green and white paper out of my warden’s purse and shred them.
Oreo: My dear acolyte! I was concerned when I heard you have been purring loudly while your warden pets you during meals.
Moriarty: Lies! All lies!
Oreo: Good to know. I have confirmed there will be lots of wine and food at this nefarious event. The simpletons will return with full tummies and foggy heads and will be fooled by the stuffed socks placed under the bed. They won’t realize we have escaped until morning.
Mooka: The Spoiled Brats warden isn’t going to fall for that.
Oreo: Traitor! I heard about your shameful preening in "Tails" magazine. You are on their side!
Mooka: If you mean the side of sanity and reason, then yes. But please continue, I haven’t had a good laugh since I saw you in the pink carrier.
Oreo: If it takes all nine lives, you will pay.
Mooka: Yeah, yeah. So, how are you actually going to escape?
Oreo: Abby and Panda Bear have extensively researched the clear encasement structure that is a portal to the outside world.
Panda Bear: In the warm weather, my warden removes the first layer of the force field. But we’ve all reported a second layer made of an impenetrable mesh, like on a carrier. Is it possible our wardens live in a cage?
Oreo: That is my dream. But what do you mean the second layer is impenetrable?
Panda Bear: That tickles, stop it Abby.
Oreo: Stay focused. We need more intel on the second layer.
Abby: Hold still Pan-Pan, we must groom after snack time.
Panda Bear: Stop cleaning me you nutty calico, (kitty giggles). I mean it.
Oreo: Stay on target!
Alex: Did they say something about snacks?
The video conference ended prematurely due to technical difficulties related to a computer hurling across the room. I fear my minions have strayed from the true path and I must take matters into my own paws.
But there will be a reckoning on April 30. Oh yes.
Until we meet again.
