I luvluvluv the picture of Jasper and Chris contemplating the outdoors, Heidi. And the summary of the detective series. I'm looking forward to reading the next instalment on Tuesday. Have a great weekend!
Thank you, Diana! We really appreciate the positive feedback! Chris & Jasper luvluvluv the patio slider screen. It inspired the Catio in the detective story. So fun. See you Tuesday for Ch 6! Have a great weekend w/ Steve.:)
A beautiful post, Heidi and CwC. Chris and Jasper quite literally looking ahead! That is quite a find with that Red-tailed Hawk feather as well. Love that Haiku collection, too!
Thank you, Neil! It really is encouraging to the healing of the land that the hawks are thriving and the golf remnants are history. Thank you so much for all of your positive feedback on CwC!
I have so much to catch up on! Firstly, Salem, Nalia, and I are so very sorry to hear of Star's passing💞May she be leaping, bounding, no longer in pain, and being her Shining self in heaven! Secondly, I will do my best to catch up on the critters Detective Series! Thank you Heidi, Chris, and Jasper Kitten for this update💜
From Nalia and Salem:
Sorry our Hooman has been lax in reading about your adventures! We'll be sure to do a better job at reminding her to read more, as we also want to know what our fellow critters are up to! Sorry to hear about Star💞I, Salem, am sending lots of healing purrs y'alls way! And I, Nalia, am sending lots of cuddles y'alls way! We luvluvluv you💜
Thank you Kimber, Salem & Nalia. Your luvluvluv and support is so appreciated. We hope all is well and thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and for being here with us at Critters. The adventures are sure to continue.:)
Thank you, Elyse. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and support for Star and for the story. I’m behind in my reading, but your recent posts are top of my list.:)
Great story by you critters and Heidi . Yes Star is your guiding light from above , and should be . Love the pic of Hawk feather and golf ball and tee ,And all that was said by the critters about Star being in their heart from above . To help them sleep on the couch . Hugs peace and pets to all the critters and Heidi
Thank you, Mitch! It means so much to us to hear your positive feedback and know you are here with us at Critters. We really feel Star’s beautiful energy through writing and it’s deeply healing for us. We’ll see you again on Tue for Ch 6 of the detective story.:) Take good care.
Since reading your Conversations I often look at my cats and imagine them having conversations like yours. The rewilding project they talk about this time sounds lovely! I wish we'd have more projects like that - everywhere. Too many golf courses where I live :(
Thank you, Emese-Reka! We luvluvluv hearing about your own cat conversations! Our neighborhood park, formerly known as a golf course, is 56+acres. It’s wetlands and had a history of flooding the golf course, so the city took it over and nature is taking its own course which is so enlivening. Thank you so much for being here with us at Critters.:) We enjoy your nature and travel writing.
Thank you, April! I’ve made a point of collecting your amazing Haiku Comments as they are not to be missed by the rest of our Critter Readers! We’re so glad you enjoyed seeing them here in today’s post.:) Stay tuned for Ch. 6 on Tuesday!
Look forward to it Heidi. I am so enjoying this series. I do hope that once the critters have solved this mystery they go on to doing more great detective work. I am sure they will be in demand - I can see a huge mail bag in their future, with all sorts of cases, once they solve this and it hits the press!
Fantastic, April! This is the best feedback and so encouraging. We do have high hopes to continue the detective, mystery series. Next stop could very well be across the pond and through the back of the wardrobe.:) Can you see Jasper Kitten driving in the right hand seat? So fun.:)
Hi Jasper Kitten & Critters, This is Julie Rae Cat. Do stay safe with your sleuth job. It can be very dangerous out there and sometimes I worry about you. William, Emily and I are so happy to hear that our friend Star will continue to be present with you. I know Star will always watch over all of you.
We will be checking our mom's computer for your next update.
Thank you, Julie Rae! We are so appreciative of your concern for our safety. Thank you very much to you and William and Emily for reading our story and looking out for us. We agree that Star watches over us. Please, stay tuned for Ch 6 on Tuesday. We can’t wait to see you then. Luvluvluv, Chris & J Kitten, Sleuth & Purveyor of Bright Shiny Objects Detective Agency
Awesome! Do they like to be in groups? Is that a normal “lifestyle”? And they originate in Chili? Maybe we can have a small family that’s on its way to Canada. So fun. You are welcome to write anything of interest to you here in the comments or a DM. We’re all ears. Thanks so much.
Yes, they actually live in large family groups in the wild and have evolved alongside kangaroo rats. So if there's kangaroo rat pups or degu pups, they will look after each other's offspring. Yes, they're originally from Chile in the Matorral region. (If you watch from timecode 22:27, there's a small bit about degus in their natural environment in Chile.

Thank you, Kristin! And we do luvluvluv the character development and plot point for Mr. Serval to have an evil twin. Perhaps and evil twin from NJ. So fun.:)

Greetings to you, Pamela! You always help lift us up!
Awesome once again!

WOW - How wonderful! You put in the story line of my haiku comments! I am so chuffed and feel honoured to be part of the Detective story summary!

Summary haiku
The story so far intrigues

I adore these posts. Big thinkers !!! Such a good read.
Thank you, Sheryl! The Critters have their own way of cooking things up.:) Thank you very much for reading.:)
They do look like they're having a BIG THINK.
Thank you, Squizz. They do indeed! Would you like to see Degus featured in the detective story? Question mark. Question mark.
That would be fantastic! :) Please let me know if you need to know anything about mine or degus in general to work them into the story.

Thanks! That’s very helpful!
These are always so good Heidi... I routinely Wonder what Alice and Emma are talking about when they're prattling with each other in dog speak haha
Thank you, David! Perhaps a group chat with Alice & Emma might be in the pipeline? Btw, congrats again on the book. I put in my Amazon cart.:)
This is very kind of -thank you . I appreciate the support :)
Thank you, Kristin! And we do luvluvluv the character development and plot point for Mr. Serval to have an evil twin. Perhaps and evil twin from NJ. So fun.:)
