The vandalism continues [View all]

This time the victims are a lamp and a wood carving done by my Dad. The lamp survived. The wood carving? Well, it's going to need some glue. He carved a mother duck and three ducklings, all with open beaks. There's a plaque naming this carving 'Quacking Lessons'. It is one of my most prized possessions.

Fortunately it's just the 3 ducklings that were knocked off of the platform. None are broken so they can be re-attached.

Not sure WHO is doing this but the focus is now on Gryff. I found him on top of the dining room hutch, right next to a Waterford Crystal bowl. He managed to knock down a break half of a set of miniature porcelain salt and pepper shakers that I THOUGHT would be safe. Now I'm rethinking where to put that bowl. I keep the rest of the Waterford pieces in a glass door curio cabinet but this bowl is too wide. I don't think they make this piece, any longer, so I have NO idea of the value.

The distance he had to leap is pretty amazing, but then I once found Sophie Stinky Toes sitting on TOP of the front door.

I wonder if anyone makes 'kitty calm' treats.
