Good Morning, Everyone…🐈⬛ THE CAT’S …ME – OW! 🐈⬛
🎶 What’s new, pussycat?…WOE-oh WOE-oh…What’s new, pussycat?…WOE-oh, WOE-oh, WOE-oh oh…🎶…”What’s New Pussycat?” – (with apologies to) Sir Tom Jones 1965 https://tinyurl.com/carmwkaz
🐈⬛ Her pet oft times would act up, if she tried to CRIMP his ways,
She wished she could INVENT something so that she could allay…
His out of sorts behavior …on some days a huge EVENT,
It could result in a PAYDAY…it would be Heaven sent
‘Cause right now she’s unhappy…for a moment her heart skipped…
When once again she’s at odds with Gerry…who just CAT NIPPED 🐈⬛
At first DOLORes wasn’t sure what she’d name her cat…but after a while, she settled on Gerry Mander…for two reasons…1 – He’s a male, and 2 – Talk about a divisive personality…
Ok…Today’s words…We have eVENT and inVENT together HAIR…I found that a BIT quirky…but a good thing…It might keep some of us from VENTing about too hard an anagram…Let’s face it, they pretty much REARED THEIR HEADS right off the page with the LITTERS being so similar…
So…Today a puzzle that in no way should have you SCRATCHing your head. In fact, I’m a tad CURIOUS as to why David MINT for it to be so easy…Truth be told, it LITTERally solved itself….No reading between FELINES with this one…Our question…”aromatic herb toy” = CATNIP, https://tinyurl.com/5ecvxbkd and our cartoon, showing the long-suffering DOLORes raising her hand as she’s once again NIPPED by her CAT…as she tries to take HISS plaything? Her…CAT NIPPED…A PURRfect set up FUR sure…PAWSitively easy, breezy…And if you didn’t NAIL this one down immediately? There’s GNAW excuse…A CATastrophe if you ask me…
And I can’t help BITE thinking PAW Jeff…beCLAWS he’s so not a cat person. But, the trooper that he is, he toed FELINE https://tinyurl.com/2rpupafv and gave us a PURRfect cartoon as always….The snarly look on Gerry’s PUSS? The nasty CATitude? Just the WRITHE touch…And the scratch post and ledge, along with the bird feeder outside on the tree, are nice deTAILs too…
So…There you have it, Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And I’ll PAWS here to say a quick PREYer for DOLORes…I can’t help BITE feel for her…Seems MEW never know with some pets…I definitely WHISKER luck…🐈⬛🙋🏻♀️

💇🏻♀️Sitting, trying to INVENT a better way to promote the EVENT introducing the new device to CRIMP hair…and hoping for a PAYDAY… she was thrown off guard when her CAT NIPPED at her…💇🏻♀️
🤦🏻♂️ He thought he could work ‘round things and INVENT a better way,
Without any interference to hinder his PAYDAY…
He’d hate to CRIMP his style, so he tried to circumvent,
The old rules that he abhorred…just make it a new EVENT
And things were going pretty well…until his papers ripped…
His ornery pet jumped on his desk…and they were left CAT NIPPED…🤦🏻♂️
🐈⬛ There are those who are taken with cats,
Despite here and there’s little spats…
Like Dolores they deal,
With a sometimes ordeal…
Personally it would drive me bats…🐈⬛
🤷🏻♀️Comes to catnip…you hear different tales,
Works for some cats…while others it fails…
I’m no expert, for sure,
But our puzzle de jour…
Has decided it shall be regaled…🤷🏻♀️
🏡Seems Dolores gave Gerry a home,
He’s an indoor cat…he doesn’t roam…
But he struts ‘round inside,
Runs through house far and wide…
The King of the Castle…Jerome…🏡
🐈⬛And of course there are days when he’s calm,
And behaves for his adoptive Mom…
But at times…and there’s few…
His behavior? Mon Dieu!
And she wonders if he’ll do real harm…🐈⬛
🤷🏻♀️Guess Dolores is willing to take,
The occasional nip, scratch and rake…
But if Gerry persists,
With behavior like this?
May be ‘bye…for Dolores sake…🤷🏻♀️

I guess it was an easy blind solve. I think you’re right about the “aromatic herb toy” being the give-a-way clue !! So, that’s about it. I think I also saw the little scratch on her arm, which helped. Wow, that movie goes way back and I remember seeing it in the 1960’s…and the song has really survived. Enjoy your Monday….Terry
So has Sir Tom, Terry..he’s still performing…at 83! 🎶🙋🏻♀️
Start of a new week Monday ! The anagrams were all there ! I thought , all right here’s another week of fun solving jumbles ! Now the jumble was fun , but a little tricky ! CAT was there and I did see NIPPED , but wasn’t too sure how the spelling went ! So I hesitantly put it down and looked it up with fingers crossed and it was correct , Meow ! Great start of another great week Monday ! And the song by Tom Jones is a favorite and I’m still singing it ! Good choice ! Bring on the tacos for Tuesday tomorrow !!!!!!!!
Tks, Jim 🐈⬛🙋🏻♀️
Good morning. Easy start for a new week of jumbles. You were right on the money about the cartoon answer Angela but I didn’t translate catnip to nipped for the second word until I had all the letters down on paper. Enjoyed your song choice. Since he is an octogenarian does it mean that when he does his concerts the women changed from throwing their panties to throwing their bloomers. Until tomorrow take care.
LOL! 😂😂😂! Paul …you made me spit out my coffee! Brooklyn’s in the house! 👍🏻😂…In answer to your question, I’ve no idea…(and I’d rather not picture it)!…but TBT? He still looks good, very good in fact, and he still sounds good. He’s touring with the Blind Boys, and I watched a few clips of their rehearsals…He doesn’t disappoint…Glad you enjoyed it…Tk you. And tk you for the laugh! ❤️ Take care…🎶🙋🏻♀️
My wife and I saw Tom Jones years ago in Las Vegas, a great show indeed.Chuck.
Had the anagrams solved along with cat for the 3 letter word, though I also considered pet as the 3 letter word. After deciding on cat, nipped came to mind for the cartoon solution. Chuck.
When it come to the domestic cat
I’m going to say it out flat
And I’ll save my wee rhyme
For a another time
‘Coz the cat’s JUST-NOT-WHERE-I’M-AT!!
