Purrfect Shark (Max 91)

Hot Dog!

Marge and Tex had won a two-week stay at the Hampton Cove Resort & Spa and planned to make good use of the opportunity. Unfortunately the resort was being plagued by a thief who enjoyed robbing its guests. Fortunately Gran and Scarlett were on the case. Since the police department was struggling with manpower issues, they had offered the services of the neighborhood watch and were keen to catch the thief. Unfortunately before long one of the guests was found dead on the beach, seemingly the victim of a shark attack. Fortunately the shark that had been seen in the waters wasn’t to blame. Unfortunately it soon became clear that the victim had been murdered in quite a gruesome way. Fortunately Odelia and Chase arrived to look into the case. Unfortunately they asked me to talk to the shark…

Purrfect Bully (Max 92)

Clarice to the Rescue!

Once upon a time there was a girl who was being bullied. Luckily for her she had a little brother who happened to find out and decided to engage the services of Odelia Kingsley and her clowder of cats to ‘fix’ the bully. When I told our good friend Clarice about the situation, she was sincerely moved by the girl’s plight, and appointed herself the victim’s personal bodyguard. She felt very strongly that this most delicate matter required her personal brand of subtle diplomacy. In other words: she decided to go to town on the bully—with unforseen consequences for all of us.

Meanwhile Gran was answering the urgent cry for help from one of Hampton Cove’s residents who had been noticing suspicious activities on his block and wanted the neighborhood watch to put a stop to it. And since Chase decided that he had an interest in said suspicious activities, he invited himself to ride with the watch. Suffice it to say it was the watch patrol to end all watch patrols and things didn’t exactly go according to plan. But then when do they ever?

And finally a man jumped from the balcony of his room at the Star Hotel—or was he pushed? He landed right in front of Gran and Scarlett, enjoying their usual beverage, and when the man whispered his final words into Gran’s ear, it set in motion a series of events that led to our discovery of a new hype: the Plurtle. These were plastic turtles modeled after actual turtles being held in captivity. And while we were busy saving the poor creatures from imprisonment, the Plurtle craze exploded and brought things to a head, with members of our own household in the grip of the hype.

Purrfect Idol (Max 93)

Raise the Dead!

When the body of famous pop star Polly Parker is discovered at the bottom of a pool, it’s all paws on deck to find out what happened, especially since the murder was a particularly gruesome one. But then Uncle Alec tells Odelia’s cats to stand down and not to get involved in the investigation. Easier said than done, especially since we hit upon a brilliant idea to solve the murder: resurrect Polly Parker!

Unfortunately our attempt at reviving the star hits a snag when our brilliant idea leads to all kinds of unexpected consequences. And when a second murder is committed, things take a turn for the worse.
