Ongoing investigation

Larry found some cat puke in the bedroom and saved it to show me. The reason he saved it is because the majority of what was in the puke was fat blue elastic bands. We don’t know which cat it was. Larry thinks it might have been Lilu because she’s more antisocial. She’s weird. And eating blue elastic bands is weird too. I think it might have been Iggy. Because Iggy’s the one I see chewing on elastic bands all the time.

But why just the blue bands? There’s beige elastic bands lying around on the floor all over the place too. They’re the ones that wrap the newspaper. There’s also red ones negligently dispersed about the house. They come from lettuce heads for holding the lettuce leaves in place so the heads are easier to manage when you’re buying them at the grocery store.

One thing we know for sure. Whichever cat it was who puked is the one that favours the colour blue.

Can cats see blue? Hey what about the blue square foamy toy thing that got mauled too? Yes, this is interesting, we must set some blue traps to sleuth who is the blue monger.

Cats have two kinds of cones in their eyes; the blue and green seeing ones. Humans have three, blue and green, the same as cats, and red.

So....it appears Iggy can see blue. And the fact he can't see red could be why he leaves the red elastics alone.

They're invisible.
