Sandy Claws

Dear Sandy Claws,

I know I've been an awesome cat all year, so this should be easy for you. I broke my Cat Quest toy, and I really need a replacement. This is, in no way, a sign of my naughtiness. It could, and did, happen by accident.

Did I whap it? Yes, but clearly it was made for whappin, so again no fault of mine. Did I nibble it? Yes. I don't know that it's encouraged, but clearly it's not out of the realm of possibility for a nice cat to nibble her favorite toy. I mean it looks like a bug.

I think it was just the standard wear and tear of aggressive, err, normal ladycat business. I still loved it when it lost half of it's wings, but now that it's lost the other wings and no longer flutters, it's not as much fun.

So to recap - I was an excellent kitty (hardly any naughtiness, err, no naughtiness, err, very normal amount of playful Mom nibbles) all year, and I'm requesting yummy treats, catnip toy(s), and a replacement Cat Quest.

Nosetaps from a polite, and respectful senior kitizen,

P.S. I've enclosed a photo of the toy in question. You can see that I was a perfect lady with it. Do you see the restraint?


P.P.S. I don't know how this other photo made it in here. Clearly this is a look-a-like cat.

  2. I don't see how Santa could possibly resist your polite and very ladylike request. :)

  3. You certainly deserve a new one, Fin! If we catch Santa Claws next week, we'll try to talk him into bringing you one.

  4. Hi Fin,
    If Santa has an ounce of compassion and understanding, he will be moved by your plea. I'M moved by your plea. So much so that I'm now adding the Cat Quest Toy to my own list.

    mew!

  6. Well, you definitely deserve a new Cat Quest toy, Fin! We think that last photo was photoshopped...we know you'd never do something like that to your Cat Quest toy!

  7. You not only deserve a new Cat Quest toy...you deserve 2! Yes 2!

  8. You were an excellent lady cat all year and Santa should grant your every request. It looks like you had quite a hunt week.

  9. That letter convinced me. I'm ignoring that last photo :)

  10. That cat in the bottom photo is definitely an imposter. You're not that blurry!

  11. It is clear to us that you were perfectly restrained and ladycatlike. Santa could never hold that against you.

  12. Santa won't be able to resist your request. That second cat....isn't that "Not Me" from Eric and Flynn's blog? We think he made it to your house and disguised himself as you!

  13. We're definitely convinced, Fin! We're sure Sandy Claws will also be.

    I think the second photo was 'photoshopped' to look like you!

  14. You asked so nicely...Santa CAN'T refuse you. That's a cool toy!

  15. Oh no! There is a Fin Imposter out there... who knows what other trouble she might get you into??

  16. I hope Santa Claus brings you a new toy!

  17. MOL! We hope you get everything you've asked for Fin!

  18. Hey Fin, as special (and polite) as you are...I don't think you need to worry...Santa will be very good to you!

  19. We will put in a good word for you! You have done nothing in the realm of naughtyness! It's all good clean fun.

  20. What a great letter - very nicely worded, too! We don't believe that last photo is you & we're betting Santa won't either!

  21. That's a very reasonable request and if Santa is as good as they say he is, yoo'll get new toys!

  22. I hope Santa will bring you a new Cat Quest, Fin! You definitely deserve it.

  23. You totally deserve a new one! And so ya know...EFFURYONE has a twin out there!!!

  24. I am just sure that you didn't hurt that toy. Toys are supposed to be whapped. And maybe chewed a little bit. Great pictures. Now we know that you were not naughty. Santa will come see you.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Not to worry, Fin! Every toy is expected to take some regular wear and tear -- this one just took more tear, that's all -- no big deal!

    I'm sure Santa will find it in his heart to bring you a replacement.

    Merry Christmas!

  26. You made your request so politely, how could Santa possibly refuse you?

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm sure Santa will bring you just want you want. I was afraid of my CatQuest toy.
