Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2004Pine Cone announces this summer's voyage
March 7,2004 Okay, Swabbies, We're looking to start up for our pirate cat voyage of discovery and fishies for 2004. Our Buddy, Adam, is being sent to Germany in May by the hoomins he works for. We gotta go rescue him. So I propose that we meet, dockside, at Roanoke Island, USA on June 1, 2004 and set sail for Burope and save Adam from working for the hoomins. I then propose that we sail towards the south seas, collect more crew members there, and find out about the fleshpots of taheetee, hawaee, and the phillipeans. I figure we can have a grand old time, kick some d*ggy b*tt, and find treasure galore. What say ye? Are we going adventuring this summer? Are you mateys with us or yellow livered d*g b*tt licking, cowards? Cap'n Pine Cone esq. Hoomin note. Pine Cone has been after me to work on and update his web site. I'm still not through, but I've added a couple of pages, changed a few things, and I'm still not happy. But it's at http://home.earthlink.net/~tanada for those who want to see how the boss (he thinks) cat is doing. Pam S. Hey, I thought Pine Cone's website is great, the pics also.

Yeah, Berf was an alky. We don't drink, but we have friends who do, and many of them would slide Berfert some under the table. You've never seen a hang over until you've seen one on a cat. I was so glad that he put himself on the wagon. Pam S. > Hey, I thought Pine Cone's website is great, the pics also. Berfert was an > alcoholic? Thank you. The other cats are demanding at least one page so that they can reply. Sigh. Yeah, Berf is an Alky. We don't drink, but we've had a lot of friend who do, and most of them were quite willing to slide some to Berfert under the table. I was SO glad when he put himself on the wagon. You've never seen a hangover until you've seen it on a cat.

Aye, aye, Cap'n, here are two hearty swabbies always ready for an adventure! Especially at sea. Will you pick us up frpm our island as you did last year? Germany is quite near to us, so we could ghost oer there, but if you come to our island, we can offer some good huntin' and nice climbing trees.

Nikki taught us much about sea fishing last year, and the fat one showed me a picture of a cat wearing a scuba suit. Maybe I can talk her into getting me one. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. Greetings As a seaside cat, I practically have brine in my veins, so would be glad to join you on your adventures yet again. May I suggest that you do as last year; up the English Channul, and up along the North Kent Coast where I'll meet you at Whitstable Harber again? 'Tis a fine place for stocking up on the essentials of life, like shrimpies. Then up the East coast to Waffles, if she's game for a spot of hunting, which I'm sure she will be. Carrie, the fat one, wants to come again this year too. She's not so bad really, and she's not so fat any more. Could you find space for her? SignatureYours, respectfully, Jasper (applying for the post of Stores Manager again) > Greetings > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > bad really, and she's not so fat any more. Could you find space for her? > Aye, that works for me. I'm sure we can squeeze Carrie in, somehow. I'm trying to get the fat one to lose some weight. If that works, we'll have room for one or two more crew members. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. calculating weight/mass/cargo ratios already Mischief: I'd be honored to join yer crew, capt'n. I've been cooped up in this apartment waaaaaaaaay too long and I'm dying to get some fresh air. There's just one catch. My stupid hoomin says she'll only let me go on the voyage if Imp comes along with me. It's sooooooooo STUPID!! Imp runs away from his shadow! There's no WAY he would make it as a pirate cat. Hmph! It's the only way I can go on this voyage, unfortunately. Mama Kristi says I have to take care of Imp so he doesn't get scared. Grrrrrrr!! Knowing him, he'll probably hide below deck for the entire voyage. He thinks everything is a trick, and I know I'm going to have to beat him silly just to get him on the blasted ship! Harumph! But it's only because I'm dying for some pirate adventure, to be able to sail the seven seas, with all the fish I can eat, that I'm willing to put up with him! And Imp, well, I'm sure Imp will be great at swabbing decks or some other meaningless task. So I am ready for duty, Capt'n Pine Cone! (whispers) Imp! You're supposed to say you're ready! Imp: Uh, are you sure about this? This could be just a trick, cause pirates are so scary. Did you see the movie where the pirates turned in to walking skeletons... Mischief: For the millionth time, will you RELAX???!! Now say that you're ready, before I pull out your whiskers and hang them from the mainsail! Imp: Okay, okay, I'm ready..........I think..... Mischief: That's better. Two more mischievous cats reporting for duty!!! Mischief and Imp > Mischief: I'd be honored to join yer crew, capt'n.

Tell your buddy not to worry, we'll make a TOM out of him by the time the voyage is done. If not, we'll just lock him in with the fat wench, and he can help her around the hold. Cap'n Pine Cone, trying to remember where he mislaid his pirate cat songbook Aye Aye Capt'n! where shall we meet to board? Imp and I are from a place called Van Nyes, close to a place called Los Angelus. Just give us the word, and we'll be there Mischief and Imp Er, Cap'n, can I come on your voyage this year. It sounds like fun, but I'll need to be the onboard cabin watcher or something - I don't like the big OUT unless there's a ready way to get back IN! I'll volunteer to "guard" the stores, especially the food and make sure the other cats don't get too much. Mistletoe (but pu-leeze call me Missy) > Er, Cap'n, can I come on your voyage this year.

But I'm sure we can work out a way to make sure you can get out one of the many cat doors installed for our pleasure. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. Dear Capt Pine Cone, I would like to join this years pirate cat voyage. Meowmy wouldn't let me go last year because I had just come to live with her and Paw and they were afraid I wouldn't come back. How silly hoomins are. Why wouldn't I return to a soft bed, plenty of food and warm shelter after spending a cold, wet winter outside. Anyhow, I managed to live on my own for awhile and am good at hunting my own food. I'll be happy to help catch wales and purposes. I know that Hobbes usually joins the crew and I can keep an eye on him and make sure that he behaves himself. I bite him on the ear when he least suspects it and hiss at him when he's doing no wrong. He isn't sure what to think of me now and watches me warily. Paw tells him that I'm just a typical female and that he'll have to get used to it, but I know exactly what I'm doing. I look forward to hearing from you and hope that I get to join your crew this year. With a parrot in my jaws....ummm on my shoulder, I mean. Lacey > March 7,2004 > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > Pam S. >> March 7,2004 >> [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> fishies for 2004. Our Buddy, Adam, is being sent to Germany in May by >> the hoomins he works for. We gotta go rescue him. Yo Capt Pine Cone, Yer fellow pirate Hobbes here requesting permission for myself and Selena to join the crew of the Good Ship Mouser again this year. We've had such a great time the past few years we wouldn't dare miss the adventure this year. Of course Selena was waiting to see if Amber was going to join up this year so I finally told her that he was probably waiting to see if she was signing on. So she said to sign her up as well. So me matey, please consider Selena and for the 2004 pirate adventure. Hobbes and Selena Dear Capt. Pine Cone, I would like to go wif you on the ship. I'm good at hunting, but I'm an indoor kitty and mostly hunt fuzzy mousies and spiders and bugs (but not stinky bugs). My meowmy sez I should ask if we gotta share the hoomins on board. She sez I don't share well wif others. I don't know what she means by that, but she sez it's not nice to not share. I think I can share the hoomins, but should I bring my meowmy wif me? Then I could leave the other hoomins to the other kitties. She's good at filling food dishes and playing throw-the-toy and scooping the litter (although that could be a little more often for my tastes). She doesn't understand cat-speak very well, but she gets the gist of the message eventually. She likes other kitties, but I'd prefer to keep her lap to myself. Maybe she could help with brushing other kitties? Then maybe she would stop trying to brush me. Yours, Brenna Buggesbane > Dear Capt. Pine Cone, > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Brenna Buggesbane Arrrr, Brenna, welcome aboard. You can bring your hoomin with you, so long as we don't get a sudden spate of mateys demanding to bring their hoomin escorts. The fat wench gets to sneezing something awful after she's brushed six extra cats or so, so we can use extra cat servants. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. >> Dear Capt. Pine Cone, >> [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > Cap'n Pine Cone esq. Dear Cap'n PC: Brenna did not ask me about this before posting. As I get somewhat seasick and just generally have lousy balance, I think that I should stay home. Thank you for being open-minded about it, though. It is fine with me if she accompanies you, but feel free to send her home if she causes problems by getting jealous about attentions that other kitties receive. I'll send an extra bag of hairball formula food with her. Oh, and the hoomins should be warned that she will try to mug them for chocolate, garlic, and spicy foods. If she gets too excited or aggressive on 'nip, restrict her to chamomile and she'll have fun but be more mellow about it. I think that's about it. - Denise > Brenna did not ask me about this before posting.

I think that's about it. Aye Ms Denise, the fat wench says that she understands about seasickness as she's a bit prone to it herself. I'm giving a copy of this to the fat wench and reminding her that she's in charge of special stores. She already plans on the hairball formula food, but hadn't thought about chamomile tea. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. > Dear Cap'n PC: > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > aggressive on 'nip, restrict her to chamomile and she'll have fun but be > more mellow about it. I think that's about it. Hey, mateys! Are ye CATS or are ye PUPPY D*GS?? Thjis is starting to sound like Meowmies sending their kittens to DAYCARE!! Chamomile instead of nip, indeed. This is a PIRATE voyage, not a kiddie cruise! MY hoomin can at least tie seaman's knots, so she could be some use on board. Hisspit. Nikki Hoomin note: please forgive Nikki, she's such a tough cookie. Maybe I shouldn't let her go, or she will scare the younger cats off the ship. Cap'n Pine Cone Hope it's not too late to add a couple more to the crew. I wanted to come last year, but Momma Little Bit said I couldn't go alone since I'm and inside cat and she was afraid I'd get lost or something. She refusing to go, since she's afraid of getting wet. This year, she says I can go, as long as Rocky agreed to go along. I asked Rocky, and at first he said no. But he agreed when I reminded him that if he went we'd be on the other side of the world when it's time for his annual trip to TED. He says he'll go as long as there's plenty of food and a hoomin or two that will rub his back. I've never been on a pirate cruise, but am quick and agile, love to climb, so think I'll get the hang of climbing in the rigging. I'm hoping to pick Nikki's brain for hunting and fishing techniques, since all I've ever been able to catch are grasshoppers and am really looking forward to voles. I do have a couple worries, though. Thunder really scares me, so hope there'll be no storms. I'm hoping that your hoomins have better control over the weather than ours does. If not, I'll probably need someplace safe to hide from the big boomers. The other thing is food. Our hoomin recently decided to start feeding us heathly food, but I'm hoping we can bring along some of the good stuff. My personal favorite is Friskies tuna and cheese, but even before our hoomin went on this healthy craze we only got that on special occasions. Since we'll be on the high seas, perhaps we could catch catch some tuna, feed it some cheese, and try it fresh? As for Rocky, he's pretty good at any fighting, he's named after that movie boxer, Rocky Balboa. He grew up wild, and back before he moved in with us and lost his b*lls he whopped all the other cats in the neighborhood. He's retired, though, and told me to ask if he could have a job helping teach the youngsters how to fight instead of fighting himself. Anyhow, if there's room for two more, here's a couple potential 'cruits.

We can surely use someone to help teach attack and defense to the kits and help with guarding the ship from d*gs. I'm sure that Waffles and Nikki will be quite pleased to teach a promising younger cat the ropes of big game hunting. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. > Hey, mateys! Are ye CATS or are ye PUPPY D*GS??

Dear Captain Pine Cone Sir, May I come on board with the rest of your kitty friends? Mommy had to send my cat back home because she didn't like the great outdoors. She was a city girl at heart and I miss her. I'll be out of school by then, Mrs. Baker said that I'm doing so good I'll get to go to first grade. I'm a good petter and I'll make sure everybody eats lots of treats. I need someone to watch Heathcliff and Felix cartoons with me after school is over. Shhhhhhh, don't tell Mommy but I need a break from my sissie. She touches too many of my things!!! And I want all the kitties for myself this summer. Mommy says I need to share but Eve has her own toys. And the d-g is getting awful grumpy in her old age. Mommy says it's because her leg hurts where the doctor had to cut it open and fix it but I think it's just because she gets all the treats from Mommy and we eat ours without sharing. Mommy says she's even stingier than I am. But I'm not, I just don't like sharing with a fleabag that can't purr. Abi cat slave in training > Dear Captain Pine Cone Sir, > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > Abi > cat slave in training Arr, Miss Abi. I understand you wanting to be with us superior beings, you can't help but be interested in us. We won't be able to watch TV on board the ship and the fat wench told me that she was sure that your meowmie wouldn't be too thrilled for you to be mixed in with such a scurvy cutthroat crew such as we are.

Mommy said I needed to stay home and help her move my toys into my new bedroom. She says we should be moving the week after school is out so I can't go. I cried a little bit but then she reminded me that we'll go pick out just the right color of pink for my walls. I can't wait and I know Mommy can't do it without my help so I'd better stay. And who will teach Evie to be bad if I'm not around. So I guess I need to stay here. Next year though I'll be a big girl and if Mommy won't let me go, well! I'll just run away. You can send her a note and say it's just like being in a circus. Big kids do that all the time don't they? Run away to the circus... Daddy says don't forget the fishing poles and a few good nets to catch lots of shrimpies. Abi PS: *from Mommy* Pulleeeassseeee take her.

After the sibling fights that > I've put up with tonight I need a break ;) Dear Miss Abi, Picking out a color for your room is very important, or so the lady cats tell me. Me, I just turn everything around me "Pine Cone" color, even though the hoomins complain about the fur levels. I wouldn't say that running away to join a pirate ship is the same as running away to join the circus. We be tougher and more cut throat than any old circus. However, big kids are no fun to have on a cruise. They fuss about the wind in their hair, fish scales, sun burns, litter box duty, and climbing the rigging. Little kids are more fun. They love to play chase, string, red-spot monster, and toss the mouse. They are more willing to brush our fur, pet us, and feed us when we ask and not when the grown-ups say to. So please don't grow big too fast. Maybe you can get one of the paws or granpaws to take you fishing, that way you can have fun and help feed the family. Cap'n Pine Cone hoping Abi can join the cruise next year. Capt Pine Cone Rocket and Sehkar reporting for duty (the other 2 are too old - all they want to do is sleep) We are very good at chasing things and getting into high spaces.

We'll need all the crew members who are adept with string as we can get. There are a lot of ropes on a ship.

We can always use a young lady cat to help climb the riggin. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. Bruiser here. I want to come again. I'm real big now so I can really contribute to all the fun this time and I've been practicing wrestling a lot. You're going to have a lot of food again aren't you? Because food is real important! Maya will probably want to come too. She's really too old if you ask me, she's like 4 now. But you know how much she likes to fight and I would miss her even if she is really old. I don't know about the buckling stuff but with a tail like mine I can really shwish and swash. > March 7,2004 > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > Pam S. > Bruiser here. > I want to come again.

She be a grand mouser and a tough set of paws in a fight. We not only bring food, but the hoomins are good about catching fish regularly. Fresh tuna is better than anything that comes in a can.

Count us in, Cap'n! Any port in a storm (if you're out of port, rum will do). Arr! Arr! Avast! Pirate Peabody Pirate Emily Pirate Max Arrrrrrrrrr! (Practicing my growly pirate-speak)...the hoomin spoilsports are not around now and I snuck onto this 'puter (not a piece-a cake with only one working eye, mateys) and am trying to send this meowsage to Cap'n. PineCone, Esq. Can't hit these *&$** keys with each paw, a paw is bigger than a catslave toe, but here goes: I, Blind Terrorist Rowdy, am ruff, tuff, scurvy & all that; even have a blind eye...but no black patch (can't stand head ornaments, man). I be mean, lean (uh, cancel "lean") how 'bout 19# of feisty furbearing feline fighting fellow? Overprotective hoomins keep me from my rightful outside wanderings here - they seem to think the local loose canine curs would make a meal of me. But I'm not handicapped! What I lack in eyesight I make up for in big bites, my sharp fangs will shiver any timbers you got out there. Just point me at 'em, dude. (I *must* stop copying the hoomin speech of that onetime surf-nut hoomin slave here. You would think it would go away after leaving California, humph). Puhleeze, Cap'n, is there a place for me in yer crew this summer? These old lady cats here are *no* fun at all; all they wanna do is snooze and pig out. Well, pigging out is good, I take that back. Are "fleshpots" some kinda huge food bowl? Yum. : > March 7,2004 : > [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] : Pirate Emily : Pirate Max Addendum plea from hoomins @ BT Rowdy's habitat: Cap'n. Pine Cone, will you *please* let him sail with your pirate expedition this June?! It's still cool but spring down here and he's skirmishing non-stop with the aging ladies he lives with, Sylvie and Maluce, as he's feeling his oats (no, he has no b**ls) and wants to play; they growl horribly and let him have it with all front claws as they just think he's got a lotta nerve bothering their snooze time. A challenging voyage such as yours would give him an outlet for this energy of a youngish tomcat. I will NOT let him go outside, front clawless and half blind, as I am rarely in the mood to skirmish myself with the neighbors' rotties and hounds, all of which know me but still......Rowdy could do *something* on your vessel. : Arrrrrrrrrr!

Arr, we can always use another crew member. Rowdy can help with our public relations team, They say they need more poster cats, and someone to help deliver messages and ultimatums. Rowdy would be good at ultimatums. Cap'n Pine Cone esq. Rowdy thanks you from the bottom of his dastardly feline heart, and his adoring hoomin will explain "ultimatums" to him. As for the other duties, he loves the spotlight and pic-taking. His hoomin also thanks you. Yo ho ho and a bottla 'nip! : > Addendum plea from hoomins @ BT Rowdy's habitat: Cap'n.
