Where has Pip been???

[angieh]

Pip is enthralled by these tales of where he might have been. The sugary smell in his fur is more like toast this morning, but tinged with a sort of sagey aroma - still rather nice!

I think he's been in Willy Wonkas chocolate factory !

Angie, is the game over or are we to do part 2 explaining the toast?

[angieh]

......... weeeelllllllllll, amalgamating the two explanations might give some splendid results!!!

Why not, go ahead!

You see, this is when I know I lack imagination. However, I love the stories and have to say they all sound completely plausible.

Pip woke early the morning after his alien abduction, with no aftereffects; decided he would go to the forest and hunt for wood mice. But he took the wrong turn and came into a clearing with a small cottage, smoke coming from the chimney and the door ajar. Well, no curious cat could resist that so he crept in and saw a little old lady sitting in a chair with her leg in a cast up on a ottoman.

Oh hello, little cat, she said! I'm waiting for my daughter to come and fix my breakfast, I can't move with this leg, do you think you could help me, I am hungry! Pip, being a nice helpful little cat said he'd be glad to try, although without a opposable thumb it might not be easy ...

He managed to put some porridge in a pot and hang it on the hook in the fireplace to heat, then cut some bread and was toasting it over the fire with a toasting fork when the porridge, which he'd hung too close to the fire, began to smoke and boil over, hissing and sizzling! In his haste to move the porridge he dropped the bread into the flames where it promptly caught fire and smoked up the little cottage ....

Just then the daughter arrived, said Mum, what is going on and what is this cat doing here ...shoo! She rescued the scorched porridge and threw out the burnt toast; Pip decided it was a good idea to go back home and tell Kizzy about his adventure.

But Kizzy said you have been dreaming, cats can't cook and you have been sleeping here in the sun this morning, silly boy!

But why did Pip's fur smell like .... burnt toast???

Wonderful Eileen ................. that little Pip has such grand adventures!

I am very much afraid that neither I nor Pip can decide who is the winner - therefore EVERYONE on this thread will be getting a communal present!

Just have to wait a wee while as I put it together!!!

Thanks everyone who wrote such lovely scenarios.

Thank you, Angie, for giving us the opportunity to have a little fun!! Can't wait to see the present!
