In the sink, with some nice shampoo and a rinse of raspberry conditioner--mmm, soft. Too soft. Floppy squishy soft. Ok, it's superwash, into the dryer for 10 minutes. By the way, the water turned green. Wash and rinse both.
Out of the dryer, still damp, patted into shape on a towel. Covered with another towel because around here, this is what happens:
Have you met Padua? He's the second-oldest of the cat family, around 16 or 17. He's part Siamese--lanky body, loud piercing meezer-voice--he came from the parking lot of the Civic Auditorium back when the kids were still working there. He's been living with FIV (kitty HIV) for lo, these many years; thank goodness, there's a vaccine, so his housemates are safe from infection. He sometimes gets cranky and will swipe and growl.He's also the one who tore out the screen door, trying to protect his territory from a visiting cat. Small but mighty, that's our Padge!
So I guess this is a P on the Pea Pod?? More pics when the sewing-up gets done.

Precocious Padua perches peachily on Pea Pod.
Hello, kitty!
I am helping Kristy respond to all the knitters that have signed up for CAP!Thank you so much! We are so excited about the tremendous response! We are sure that this will be a success. If you have any questions you can e-mail at grandmotherpurl@hotmail.com
Will you be knitting items for Skipperdee and Weenie too? Pea Pod looks like it enjoys luxuriating in the bath. Did it enjoy its tumble? Can't wait to see it.
What is it about cats and anything that we lay out flat? Oddly, I love that meezer voice.
Astonishing knitting speed and green too! Can't wait to see the Pea Pod all dried and done.
Padua is too cool. Thanks for sharing him.
