09/14/2018 – Friday’s Facts or Fibs

Today, we’re listing five items that may or may not be true. Three are absolute truths and two are wild statements without any truth whatsoever. Can you spot the fibs?

1. When a big truck rumbles down the street, Quint and Olivia race to the front window to watch.

5. In an escape attempt, a frightened Angel G.B. once ran over a visitor’s bare foot so fast, the visitor required stitches on two toes.

Think you know these Colehaus Cats? How’d you do?

Numbers 1 and 2 are complete fibs. If anything, when a noisy truck rumbles down the road, Quint and Olivia race to the bedroom to hide under the covers. And if you’ve been reading Colehaus Cats for any length of time, you might recall The Baby definitely does not like to be called The Baby!

Surprise! Numbers 3, 4 and 5 are complete truths. Every ginger girl we’ve had has had more black whiskers than white. And every one had a Tortie mom! If you listen to Tessa, she’ll insist she’s the Official Taste Tester of EVERYTHING! Dear Angel G.B., sibling sister to ginger girl Zooot, was so frightened of everything from the time she was a bottle baby until she passed. It was just her personality and we tried everything to help her with that, including rarely inviting visitors, to no avail.
