The Springtime Vaycayshun: Always Bet On a Cat to Pay!
But I diddint go.
First, thay kept putting klose in the sootcase so I diddint haf room for my bocks, my food, the litter and sum toys. Even if I'd hadded time to borrow sum outfits from Skeezy that woodint haff fit neether. Then Tenny sed she diddint want to stay home alone. And thare wuzzint room for both of us to go. So I deesided to stay. Mommy loded up my mousehole box with Temptayshuns. It kept me and Tenny bizzy for a long time. The box also has holes in the side. It took a wile but we got all the treets out. Look! 15 delishus chickhen Temptayshuns!

When Mommy and Daddy came home a squillion hours latur it wuz hard to punish them for abandoning us. I only held out for a kupple hours. I had so many purrs stored up I had to curl up on Mommy and let em out. I must say I wuz mitey reeleeved when I herd the Shevvie come in the howse.
If we'd bin mistreeted or starvd it wood haff bin eezier to give her the cold tail treetmint. But we wuz okay.
Long Beerd even sed I kood haff his shoe! (When he's done with em)
My peeple went to Shreeveport in Loosy Anna to go to kassinos. She tole me it wuzzint glammeruss in the leest so I wooda bin dissapointid if I went thare. And thare were no showgirls neether. But thare wuz a playc where Daddy kood sit in the outtadoors and drink Muthers Milk wile looking at the Red Rivvir. (Wich she sez shood be renamed the Echo Rivvir becuz it's not red...it's chocolate brown like me.) Then she shopt til she dropt.
I wuz not happy to heer the kassinos took thare munnys! Daddy won sum munneys from a John Wayne slot musheen but that wuz it. Mommy sed Sams Town wuz tite. .jpg)
But Mommy had a sekrit stratagee to win munnys. Horses!
This pitchur is from the Loosy Anna Downs Racetrak. Thay are the silks of all the winning jockees from the Loosy Anna Derby.
I diddint know jockees were so littel.
I kood totally see Daisy as a winning jockee. She wood look grate in these and she is so athletik.
Now I kno lots bout NASCAR but not racin horsies. But it's all left turns so how hard kood it be? I shood look into beecoming a jockee myself.
I'd wear the red one to the left with the bloo sleevs and the bloo numbur 8.
At the racetrak Mommy kood bet on horse races from all ofur. And she sez she won bak all the munnys the kassino took from her. And she has me to thank for it.
Becuz she missed me so much she wuz makin simpathee bets. If the horse had a 'cat" name she wood bet on it. She new for sure the third race at Pimlico Saturday wuz gonna be a lucky race. That's cuz thare wuz a horse named Echo Quest and a horse named Cat Topper runnin. So she bet on both.
Echo Quest finished third but Cat Topper won the race! That horse wuz a longshot at 25-1 and Mommy won over 60 munnys. Then later thare wuz a race called The Lion Heart at Keenland and Mommy won over 70 munnys cuz she had an eggsackta.
I tole her to give me my share in Temptayshuns.
I hate it when humans go away. I am glad you suitably punished your human.

That mousehole box looks interesting. I've never seen one before. I'll get my mummy to look for one. It looks like a fun game to get treats.

That's a good strategy for betting on horsies!
Mommy and daddy are leaving us next month to go to a casino in Canada! We are not pleased about this!

We are glad that your humans are back home!

Echo, I'm glad everything worked out well even though there was no room in the case for you to go to the casino. Maybe the casino stealing their money was their punishment for not taking you and Tenny with them!

I think being a jockey would be the best of jobs! I would enjoy wearing the pink silks with the black sleeves. It's very stylish.
ps: I might have to get that toy for myself!

I'm glad you're beans are home. I think 2 hours of punishment is good. To much and it is the kitty who suffers without chin rubs.
It was really nice of you to stay home with Tenny. Very mancatly of you to be a nice brother like that.
I think since you helped your mommy win, she should get you and Tenny treats and toys with her winnings!!

Dearest Mr Echo
Thank you for your generous bids in relation to the royal outfit I recently auctioned. Sadly, you were pipped to the post by another siamese however, I will have plenty of items fit for a king available for auction over the forthcoming weeks.
Thank you for your generous bids!
Ta ta for now

Happy Monday, Mr. Echo. We listened to the Bug today. I like the yellow jacket in your pic. Purrs!

We're glad to hear that your humans are back! We don't like it when our Mom and Dad take out the rectangular boxes with zippers, either. That was awfully nice of you to choose to stay home and keep Tenny company!

Dude, I lost my humans to a kassino town too! They were in Atlantic City at a "convention". Yeah right..... I'm so happy all of the humans are back.

I'm glad that your 'beans are back.
Mom went to a casino yesterday ... she lost $20.00 ... an' gained a sore throat from walkin' through the smokey areas to get to the non-smokey areas. Sigh.
If you become a jockey, would you sign me up to be one, too. I wanna wear purple silks with flames on 'em. An' I want a brown horsie.
