Mini Cooper has decided that the laundry basket is a great place to play; it is fluffy and smelly at the same time. Lately I have been finding her in the basket fast asleep. I do hope no one throws her into the washer, though I do think she might like the spin cycle.
What Mischief have you gotten into today?

This is a blog hop. I hopped it from MYBrownNewfies. Check them out for more mischief.
Mr. Nine on a gray rainy day. Hope you avoid Hurricane Joaquin coming up the eastern seaboard of the United States. We are getting way to much rain for our liking even without the Hurricane. This weather is good for cat naps but not much else.
Have a wonderful black and white Sunday.

Noel lives in the dining room, when not living in the kitchen. She is a foodie cat, I guess (she never says no to a good snack). She loves to roll under the dining room table. When I vacuum (which isn’t often enough as you probably can tell from the cat hair sticking up from the rug in the picture) the dining room rug is just a layer of white fur. I can not image why? Safe and secure, she is a wonderful girl with a great sense of humor. 8 1/2 years young and getting more social and vocal year after year. Love you, NoNo.

Duchess the cat was elected mayor of Wiley, SD – population 241 – last year after her predecessor was recalled. Now the cat is potentially facing a recall challenge of her own after a local blogger accused her of widespread abuses of power.
“An audit of town documents obtained via Freedom of Information Act requests shows that Duchess has repeatedly used her political position for personal gain,” wrote the blogger, known only by the nom de plume WileyWatcher.
According to the series of posts, Duchess used town funds to hire an intern whose sole job was to “scratch her frequently behind the ears,” and she apparently gave herself a $500/month “feather and yarn” budget. Most damaging, however, WileyWatcher details how the cat used her position to grant favors to friends.
“When it came time to upgrade the litter box facilities at a local park,” claims the blogger, “the contract went to PawFresh, Inc., a major donor to Duchess’s mayoral campaign. But a close look at the bids submitted for the project reveal that PawFresh was neither the lowest bid nor the most highly rated company.”
Also, she apparently wears a crown around town hall.
A spokesperson for the mayor’s office declined to comment.
