Tasha the Fairy Godmother is very short blog about one my daughter’s reference to one of our cats. A cute quip.
I have always silently called Tasha “Houdini” because we have an ongoing battle once spring arrives – she attempts to escape the house anytime she can. Last night, through a series of “misunderstandings” (2 new teen friends that ignored house rules about closing doors to the outside) Tasha left the house. While she is good about returning inside on the command “house”, I didn’t know she was outside, and let the dogs into the back yard. They didn’t recognize T and scared the bejeezus out of her and she took refuge under the deck.
This morning she is gone. I know all the tricks of the trade for finding a lost cat and the plan has been implemented. This past week I managed to bring my anxiety and stress to a manageable level – all of that is out the window. I am to blame for the disappearance of the Fairy Godmother. Just ask my daughter – she will gladly provide a list of all my shortcomings that lead the the disappearance of T the FG.
Dear Fairy Godmother – Please come back. Or at least send your magic wand. We are all missing you. While I am not the sort to bargain with or bribe children – name your price or I am doomed. Signed, Her Highness, Queen of Anne2 Kingdom. (I think she made off with my crown.)
The cat could be anywhere in the midwest of the USA.

If you see a large grey cat, no collar, with this crown – you know who to call.
Angry teens with loud voices (and big fires) scare off animals.
This I know. I am, afterall, the Queen an INTJ Mom.

Oh my Anne – I hope she comes back soon. Keep us posted.
Tasha is still not home. We know she was back and hiding under the deck night before last, so I am hopeful she will stay in the area and settle down for “capture.” She is still out of sorts, and will not come over to us.
Rotten when thoughtless people put your pets at risk.
i do hope you find her soon.
It is unfortunate that the girls were careless, yes. Making mistakes is part of growing up, living and learning. I know they learned from it and it will not happen again. You are so right, it is hard when a loved pet is involved …
I’ve read this post three times – I still don’t get why you are in trouble –

I’m in Colorado – if your crown and fairy godmother get this far, a bed, food and water dish and fluffy red pillow await….
🙂
I have not had time to read through your blog and I know you are new to mine. Welcome! In a nutshell, this is my teenage daughter’s reasoning. Her reasoning can, at times, make the road I travel a bit bumpy.
I appreciate your offer of hospitality should the GT wander your way… Maybe the Queen will pack her hobo kit and head west. 😉
Yes, I recently found your blog and have highly enjoyed what I’ve read so far! And yes, I get the “teenage reasoning” – I just couldn’t help but putting in a sly word for Mom’s side – – 🙂
Bless your heart – I had two boys and after watching others, I know, REALLY know, why the Universe saw fit to give me only boys…
I don’t think I could have survived a daughter! LOL
🙂
Sorry to hear about your lost cat. Pets are a part of the family. Very sad when they wander off. 😦
Thanks – I am hopeful she will wander home soon.
You will lose hero status for years, you who are the blame of all! It gets better
I never had hero status with this one – thus the invocation of my royal lineage.
Hmm, your encouragement sounds familiar 🙂 🙂 🙂
Oh no! I hope you find her!
Thank you! I am relying on my knowledge of cat behavior, her personality and positive thought. Plus lots of flyers and P.R. I have never lost a family member before. I have never had one run before.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you (and her)!
