Well hello! It has indeed been a while, and BenChen has filled in more than admirably, but now it's me again. This is another that came to me while walking the neighborhood, but I assure you not stimulated by street signs. It may be a touch more difficult, perhaps a Calico/Persian, simply because it is not immediately evident what to do...but you guys are good, you'll figure it out. Besides it is common knowledge that I cannot rate how difficult my puzzles are.

*Calico
*Persian
Puma
Lion

Now while today is the 25th, tomorrow is my birthday so I am hoping for a present in the form of LOTS of solvers!


Hints will be Friday, or earlier if people are struggling.

I am ALWAYS available for individual help by PM

You are hiding your light under a basket (when it obviously should go before you!) with such a modest comment. Your assistance was invaluable and helped me catch what would have been a major "oops"! Thanks for testing AND contributing.

No Cindy, thank you for your assistance in testing and helping me work out kinks in the puzzle. Without your help people might have said: "Hey Egypt us!" :lol: (groan)

Debugged the cat, with a nudge from a helpful muggle.

That one fell quickly! Just happened to interpret a clue the way it was meant.

Sphinx is off the couch, slouching toward the litter box.

This is obviously more the Calico than the Persian, but I know there are parts that are giving people fits. We will see how solving goes tomorrow and whether I need to nudge earlier than I planned.
