[Published on 25 May 2017, with Updates.<\/em>]<\/p>\n

Here is “Our Girl”, Miss Mistie, attentive as ever.\u00a0 A beautiful cat.<\/p>\n

\"Mistie<\/a><\/p>\n

By Popular Request!<\/h3>\n

Here is a chance to Meet & Greet Miss Mistie.<\/p>\n

By popular request, our Volunteer CopyCat Editor has her own Fan Club. You may have met her already through her Command Appurrance<\/em> (#notatypo) in the first Interview, here: Center Fold<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now we offer Her Own Page<\/strong>, as a place to record our appreciation for her many talents, her affection, and her attention to our publishing and related activities \u2014 especially by Laying Down On The Job, as in sprawling across the proof-sheets, printouts, and related materials.<\/p>\n

In case you’re wondering, the Proof Sheets seen here, underneath her firm sprawl, belong to this 2016 Research Group Event: Words & Deeds<\/a>. The printed Booklet itself can be downloaded here<\/a>, including the corrected pages from this exclusive first view.\u00a0 Shall we call this view that of the PawterGeist?<\/p>\n

Case On Point<\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Did we mention that she, Mistie, is always ready for a Take Over, as in Occupation?\u00a0 Given our admiration for her, and our happiness that she keeps such good company, we make sure to pause to give extra pats for her companionship, no matter how her “SitIns” \u2014 Make That “LieDowns” \u2014 might interrupt some of the work we have in progress.\u00a0 Not a Complaint!\u00a0 For Mistie, we seek to be Compliant.\u00a0 Empress of Her Space\/Universe, Naturally.<\/p>\n

After the first Interview, we have had the intention to write up an updated Interview, after some more extended companionship with her.\u00a0 An updated Blogpost was on the way, but I (that is, Yours Truly) became so ill for so long that it, like other intentions, had to fall by the wayside for a time.<\/p>\n

That was Then.\u00a0 This is Now.\u00a0 And How.\u00a0 And Meow.<\/p>\n

Now that the warmer weather has arrived, Mistie takes a turn, now and then, on the screened-in porch.\u00a0 The comfy wicker furniture offers good, and alternative, Seating Plans that might, if apposite, Suit A PussCat.\u00a0 That is, if She Feels Like It.<\/p>\n

Her Call.<\/p>\n

(Ah yes, by now, we and you might know what that is:\u00a0 MEOW MEOW MEOW, all in impeccable accent.\u00a0 At first, we thought it expressed only irritation, but, now, listening more carefully to the nuances and the moods, we have learned that is, among Other Things, Her Way of Showing Us That She Is Listening.\u00a0 We have been Warned, or is it Warmed.\u00a0 Her Fan Club warms to her attention.\u00a0 Win, Win.)<\/p>\n

Back Up Plan<\/h3>\n

Sometimes we simply have to paws to reflect.\u00a0 #notatypo.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, Mistie turns her back to us and reflects upon wide horizons, up in the trees.\u00a0 It is her Time in The Sun.<\/p>\n

Do You Like Meow? [An Update]<\/h3>\n

Recently, after a long spell of illness and mourning a death in the family, I have returned to taking care of Mistie, while her Guardians (remember, Cats Don’t Have Owners, They Cultivate Servants) are away.\u00a0 What a lovely girl.<\/p>\n

While busy with trying to catch up after that long spell, I can show several photographs of What’s Up in Mistie’s World.<\/p>\n

First, her custom for drinking is to stand, rather than bow.\u00a0 As you see, Her Water Jar rises to her shoulder height, so that she may lap with an upright posture.<\/p>\n

When I arrive, the custom now has developed, with requisite Meows to claim attention and Motions to cultivate direction, that the Water Jar must be refreshed, no matter what its level.\u00a0 Gotta happen.<\/p>\n

Easy enough, what with indoor plumbing.\u00a0 Once the Refreshment has occurred, the Refreshment can commence.\u00a0 As you see.<\/p>\n

\"Mistie<\/a>

“Mistie Takes A Stand”<\/p><\/div>\n

Next, Mistie considers her options.\u00a0 I had brought some papers to sort and a box for the assortment.\u00a0 While I was unpacking and setting them out, Mistie took over.\u00a0 Settling into the box, it appears that she fits purrfectly.<\/p>\n

\"Mistie<\/a>

“Purrfect Fit”<\/p><\/div>\n

Next, naturally, a Snooze is in Order.\u00a0 All tuckered out.\u00a0 All stretched out.<\/p>\n

It is our pleasure to showcase this lovely Cat.\u00a0 She won our hearts.\u00a0 Yours, too?<\/p>\n
