I was cleaning under the couch and found Pica's collection of hair ties and bottle caps. The first problem is she says I can't have the hair ties back? Is that fair?

But also there were some pretty fancy looking sapphires and a tiara in the pile? Pica says all cats have a tiara because "cats are royal"

But, I'm concerned about how she got these items. I don't think they are glass, they are very heavy. Thoughts? #catcrime #picacrime #picathecat #catsofmastodon

@futurebird tagging this with #PicaCrime, you'll be hearing from her lawyer

Huh. I wonder how this shiny, twitchy, sparkly and flashy, golden Christmas ribbon (that flickers like mouse tails and spider legs) ended up unspooled across the floor through three rooms of the apartment?

It must have fallen off the table and rolled down the hall, turned right, weaved under the chair then bounced under the bed.

Call it the "magic spool" theory.

Or my husband did this. Such a messy man! #PicaTheCat #catsofmastodon #ribbon #innocentCat #PicaCrime

Acolytes Prayer

When dawn breaks I ask, Pica:

How can I be annoying today?
How can I make myself a pest?
How can I raise my voice and bray for food?
How can I reject that food whereupon I receive it?
How can I rest in the place of the most needed item?
What can I block with my small body that is required?

May all my actions bring me hours of rest in the sun.
May Her round head be petted forever.

Amen.
