Izzy - MIA

It's been weeks since Izzy boarded a plane for Ottawa. He hasn't logged in since his departure so we have to presume he's missing in action. Rumor has it he slipped out of his cage upon his arrival in the Great White North and is making his way south before the harsh Canadian winter sets in. That's what I would do. A Russian scientist visiting Ottawa thinks she captured a picture of Izzy wandering through early snows of the season but can't be sure as the scene was almost total white out:


Another rumor has it he was shipped to the wrong destination and wound up in Pago Pago, an island in the South Sea where he is creeping through the jungle at night and living off the land. In any case we miss him dearly and would love to hear any reports of his whereabouts.

Uncle Mike

Dad's departure

Here's Dad at the aeroport gettin' ready to hop on a plane to Otterwa. Hopefully he'll get there ok and pull me out of the cargo hold to head out to my new home in the Great White North. Then I can start callin' people hoser like the Canadians do, eh?

Weighing In

 

This is me gettin' weighed in at the air cargo place. I don't know what I did to deserve this but I'm really kinda worried about what's gonna happen next. Dad said something about a jet plane... hope I get a window seat so I can see those putz birds get their doors blown off!

Waiting for Godot

This is me in my gigundo carrier waiting for Dad to load me into Uncle Mike's car for the ride to the Aeroport. I'm not happy about being stuck in here that's for sure!

This is a birds eye view of me pretendin' I'm asleep. Go ahead you putz sparrow, land right here!

Last walk in America

This is my last walk before heading up to The Great White North, at least that's what Uncle Michael calls it. Dad is going to do research at the South Pole (that's in Antarktika! ) and they won't let him take me down there with him so I'm going to live with a friend of his in Otterwa! I know they'll take good care of me because they like my Dad a lot but I'm not so sure about living with a dog... could be dicey but hey... I've still got my claws!

Uncle Mike said I should never forget I'm an AmeriCat and I'm sworn to uphold The Constitution (I hope it isn't too heavy;). I'll try to do my best though I'll probably start parlaying Francaise in Otterwa, eh? Bienvenue! That's what I say!

back in the jungle

Dad's gone to Canada for a couple of days so Uncle Mike just had to show off his four o'clocks! I don't know what the big deal is, they're not nearly as interestin as all these chipmonks runnin around here like they own the place! Boy, will I show them! 

looking up

This is me keepin an eye on the putz sparrows teasin me from overhead. It was a nice day to be outside with Uncle Mike before the snow comes tomorrow. 

wysteria dreamin

I know I can climb this thing... but once I get up there, how do I get back down?? 

Izzy pondering

Another sunny day, but in the low 30ºs. Wonder when Dad will come home. Wish he could be here enjoyin the sun with me. Hope things are going ok with the liquid heliom and the partikle detektors! 

cats meow

Another amazingly warm sunny day for February in Cleveland and I'm lovin it! Dad's stuck in the mines of Miniesooota again and Uncle Mike's got his camera for some fun in the sun! Good luck with those superconducktor detektors, Dad! 

all mine

Hey! That's my lawn yer peein on fella! Can't believe these neighborhood dogs.. think they own the place! Show some respect, you putz!
 

pesky sparrows

Those pesky sparrows are teasin me again! I'm gonna get the jump on one oh them one oh these times!
 

lookout

This is me keepin my eyes peeled for trouble! Lots of stuff happening out on the street and I can't figure it all out...
 

sweet sunshine

Wow, finally a few rays of sunshine after all those grey, dreary days! And we're feelin good!

Dad's back in the mines again so Uncle Mike is bravin the cold weather so I can get out and stretch my legs 'n other body parts. Boy does that sun feel good on my fur!!
