Deep in the laminate forest, a house panther on silent paws searches for her prey when suddenly . . .
Olivia’s favorite Hammick. This week. © Colehauscats.com
. . . a cozy hammick appeared smartly placed in front of a sunshiny window! The house panther had to check it out, for its support and cozy factor, and found it much to her liking.

Later, a wandering kickstick needed some attention or maybe just a hug. It’s a known fact kicksticks get lonely, too. The house panther felt happy knowing she was doing her part to help combat kickstick depression.

And so later still, the house panther deserved a tower nap with the warm sun at her back and on her paws.
Olivia loves the comb © Colehauscats.com
Before second lunch, the house panther demanded a combing. Don’t listen to that lady who says the house panther sometimes tries to eat the comb. We all know that would be silly and pointless, as all combs want nothing more than to interact with house panthers and to keep them smooth and shiny.

New Autumn décor on the table! The house panther approves because any excuse to get up onto the dining table is a good one. Hmm, needs chicken.

The end. I approved this post because everything Mom typed here is true.

As you know, Dad has had a really tough time finding a job after being laid off in August. While we’re down to a single old computer and limited time available online when he’s not looking for a job, we’ve not been able to spend as much time as we’re used to visiting others, leaving comments and creating our own Colehaus Cats blog posts.
Going forward, until Dad finds a job or we lose our house – a very real possibility now, or both or perhaps neither, we’re taking a break from Colehaus Cats to focus on a future, hopefully one that holds bright, joyful and prosperous things. We have posts ready through the end of October and with some luck, we’ll be back a few weeks later.
Thank you for your patience with us and thank you so very much for visiting!

We are so sorry to hear things have become that strained. We will continue to pray that he finds a suitable job quickly..

I;’m hoping for good things for all of you, especially Dad! You are in my thoughts and prayers and I will miss you all terribly. Colehaus Cats is a bright spot in my day. Sending you love, best wishes and head bonks!
What a delight to see Olivia and her day. I like that the lonely kick stick got the soft hug it came searching for.
I am so hoping for better fortune for your daddy. XX We know what that is like.
We’re so glad Olivia had such a fun adventure. And we hope the Dad finds a job soon! We’ve faced that here as well and will probably be recovering from it for the rest of our lives, but we are still here, and we are purring for a happy continuation for you too.
What a pawsome story as told by Olivia. It was riveting! Purring that something comes through for the dad soon…and we hope to see you back here soon.
Olivia, you are so considerate! A delightful post.
We all understand, and have only the best wishes to offer, that things work out soon on the job-hunting front.
Olivia, this was an excellent description of your day and your preferences.
I’m hoping that all works out well and that all of the good karma that the Colehaus family has earned results in good things and much less worrying.
We enjoyed your story sweet Olivia! We’ll enjoy in more when everything gets back to somewhat normal for all of you. Please know we’re thinking of you.
Purrayers & POTP for EVERYONE at Colehaus !
I am sorry for the struggles you are going through. It happened to us and it is not easy. I want you to know that out of the 50 plus emails I get a day..when I see Colehaus Cats it makes me happy! You are my favorite! I always make sure I enjoy them. Praying all works out for your household very soon!
completely understand why you need to take a break–so sorry to hear things are so tough right now. We wish you all the best in the job search!!
Your story is good Olivia. I am sad for your folks though. I will be praying your Dad gets a job soon. XO
Seeing a house panther on the prowl is always nice. Sending good vibes for the dad on his job hunt.
All our paws are crossed for you here that things work out, jobs are landed, and the house stays your house!
