MYSTERY MANCAT MONDAY WITH DYLAN AND DANTE

Dylan saunters out to the back yard and takes his stand on the deck bench.  It's a nice day for this late in the season.

Dylan, who is quite skittish, thinks he and mama are the only ones outside right now.

So when he hears a rustling sound behind him, he immediately goes on alert!

"Ha ha!  Is jus' me, yoo sissy!", says Dante peeking out from behind the tree.

"I has bin heer all along, jus' wachin' yoo.  I alreddy staked out da yawd an' it's all cleer."

At that, Dylan feels a little sheepish.  "Baa!", says he.

Dante and Dylan discuss surveillance methods and the impawtance of PURRotecting their proPURRty.

Then their attention is drawn, simultaneously, to a sound from the yard next door.

"PURRhaps dey is preparin' to attack!", says Dante.

Then suddenly another sound gets their combined attention!  This time, not only is it noisy, but it's smelly, too.

Dante and Dylan raise their noses, in unison, to sniff the air for clues.

Dante, the Brave, checks out the situation, while Dylan runs inside.  Now what do you think that Dante discovered?

If we told you, it wouldn't be a mystery then, would it?
