Smuge, the Crawford Peace Cat, returns home to much joy

[Keseys Ghost]

Upon our return from Crawford last Sunday night, Smudge the Peace Cat, who gained great fame at Camp Casey last August, was missing. The girls have been terribly worried and, last night, began to accept that Smudge might not be coming home again.

Well, at 10:15 Friday morning, he returned home.

As of this writing, he offers no explanation as to his whereabouts and, in typical fashion, has made no public comment.



...Turns out the little animal carrier came in with the Louisiana delegation carrying a 9-week-old kitten named Smudge. Leaping into a sprawling Rosemary bush, Smudge looks up at me with eyes of great adventure. And someone is placing a huge cup of coffee under my nose. "Here, please hold this," says Cindy Sheehan before she scoops up Smudge kitty for a little face-to-face schmooze. And Sheehan introduces me to Smudge's mommy, Annie, who in turn tells me that the kitten has been with the family for about a week. I try to imagine this whole world as a nine-week-old kitten would see it, as Smudge leaps and pounces in the freshness of the day....
