Puzzle Description:

Every Saturday evening, Sylvester, Mrs. Dithers' pet cat, is treated to a plump tasty catfish (lightly seasoned with a sprig of fresh catnip). Sylvester has a perfect sense of timing and will go absolutely ballistic if his fish is not served up to him at 6:13pm prompt.

Totally wonderful. Great (believable) story and much fun.

Thank you for your comments :-) I suggested to Mrs. Dithers that her dead plant could be toxic to Sylvester and she suggested that I mind my own business.

I absolutely loved this puzzle! Solving it with my cat Chichita by my side, it reminds me of her when she demands her food!

Ah - Chichita is a girl after my heart! Thanks for the comment, Claudia.

You crack me up! Not remembering who Sylvester is, as I found the puzzle solving from the bottom up I assumed he was a green fish in a fishbowl. I was expecting the top of the puzzle to reveal a hand sprinkling fish food. Just imagine my surprise when I discovered much later that Sylvester was eagerly awaiting his chance to DEVOUR the fish! I laughed out loud, ... no REALLY! At least grouchy ol' Mrs. D takes care of her cat. (Btw, Sylvester looks like he is as mischievous and his 'mama' is meddling!)

Thanks again, Linda for the delight you bring! I have never rated so many puzzles Excellent. :o)

I feel sorry for Sylvester, living with that mean ol' Mrs. Dithers. I am withholding judgment on him so far. I'm glad that at least once per week he gets a good meal from the ol' bat!

:)
