Luna: Mr. Flamingo forgot to recharge the battery on the drone - so he brought out the telescope. See anything yet?

Winnie: Guesses for Door 10?
Macy: Should have done this earlier - I pulled last year’s photo album. Look! Door 9 last year was also a Christmas card!
Luna: Is there a pattern?
Macy: Day 10 was a candle!
Luna: We already did that!
Macy: HQ is wily!

Luna and Macy are basking in the sun this morning - they think Francis Albert made sure they were the brightest, warmest rays imaginable for their #HedgewatchForFrancisAlbert. Sending love and purrs to his family who will always miss and forever love him.

Mr. Flamingo: Look at this! I think it’s a Snowman!
Luna: Are you sure? Snow-man, Snow-globe. My guess was close - need to clean that crystal ball.

Luna: Guesses for Door 8? The crystal ball agrees - Snowglobe.
Macy: Last night Winnie and I thought we heard someone practicing Caroling - we are sure that’s what’s happening for Door 8!
Mr. F: Come on! Where’s the Gingerbread House!?

Mr. F: Practicing with the drone - need to get a better angle on the Door.
Luna: I thought for sure it was a bauble/tree ornament!
Winnie: I thought it was an apple.
Macy: But it was a candle! That was going to be my guess for Door 10.

Macy: Mom! I’ve drafted my letter to Santa. Do you think he’ll believe that I’ve been a “very good cat” or should I tone it down a bit?

Winnie: Guesses for Door 7? The crystal ball is a bit cloudy - maybe Christmas Sweater?
Luna: Snowglobe…maybe this time!
Mr. F: Gingerbread House…pretty please!
Macy: Just in case Caroling - I brought the sheet music!
