As darkness descends on the tranquil valley, H"C"S and OT scan the area beneath the loading chute, hoping to catch a glimpse of Pinkerton, Hillside Warrior.
BP's distractive behavior overshadowed the fact that someone should tell Pinkerton it's safe to come out and carry on his warrior lifestyle.
Pinkerton knows he's been granted a reprieve, but refuses to bring attention to himself until Big Kitty is safely tucked in bed.
High in the hills and deep in a valley sits a mansion. Room to roam, hills to hunt in and post upon post - to scratch. It's not your typical mansion... it's BARN CAT MANSION.

The law of physics.....
High above the Town Hall Meeting and totally oblivious to its outcome, BP stalks the pretty little bluebird we saw sitting on the wood. Corral planks are, at most, 2" wide and the space between posts is roughly 8'.
So we're questioning the sanity of BP.
Even if the bluebird is distracted by say, something important like another bluebird, when BP takes the giant leap to nab the little critter, only the worst can happen. Bluebird flies away. Cat "attempts" to land on a 2" board and crashes to the ground.
DON'T EVEN TRY IT, BP!!

Five Tails Up.
Big Kitty is the only one with a tail down.
With added votes from Pasha, Trout Towne and Pinkerton, it's official.
PINKERTON STAYS!!

Who'll count the ballots?
YES!!! We'll have a vote!!
LOBE laid down the rules:
1. Only one vote per cat
2. Pinkerton is allowed two votes.
3. BP, who is on top of the pole watching
a bluebird is not allowed to vote.
4. OT has excused herself because she
might be in love with Pinkerton.
5. Votes shall be displayed in the form of
show of tails.
(Here LOBE tells Whiskers not to use his paw for voting or his vote will be invalid)

"Don't make me leave! :(
Pinkerton sat behind the post, quiet as a mouse. They were talking about him.
Big Kitty said: "That Pinkerton has to go!
Between yawns, Whiskers disagreed and told Big Kitty: "Leave him alone. He's just a cat."
Big Kitty said: "I used to be able to catch him and hang a lickin' on him. Now he's too smart and fast. I can't keep running like this!!
H"C"S piped up and said: "Let's vote on it".

The Eavesdropper....
Cat meetings always include cats that don't want to be there. The Chairman is making faces at the crowd. Timbit is ready to pop Whiskers on the butt if he falls asleep one more time. Big Kitty scans the horizon for that pesky Hillside Warrior who wasn't invited due to the delicate nature of discussions. H"C"S is bored half silly. And, tucked in behind everyone (look closely behind H"C"S) is Pinkerton!
Out of sight, but not out of mind!!

Above the crowd...
Here's another one of those pretty little Rocky Mountain Bluebirds, but this one isn't very smart!
It landed in close proximity to a *gaggle of BCM cats!
Below and a little to the left, the cats were having a meeting on a beautiful summer evening. Big Kitty handed the duty of Chairman over to Little Orangey Blue Eyes Gone Golden. Pinkerton was banned from the meeting.
And this became the topic of conversation:
Why is Pinkerton never allowed to mingle with the commoners?
*We know a group of cats is not really a gaggle!!

It's a lonely life out here!!
No new news about that strange cat spotted on the driveway at Fox Farm, but these BCM ladies heard about it by the time it was old news.
They have mixed feelings about this. Never, in a lifetime, will THEY ever see a stranger walk down the driveway. That would be pure excitement at Barn Cat Mansion.
Barn Cat Mansion is so far away from anywhere.......maybe it's too far away from everywhere!!
