Off With Your Head

November 27, 2024 by Kelsi

Today, we put out two new stuffed animals that I thought Burrito would really like. However, Burrito never got the chance to play with them… Interestingly enough, Foxie who never really has cared about stuffed animals gravitated to them. She played/inspected them for a short time and then moved on. Later, Sabrina and I went to clean the front rooms, when we happened upon a crime scene, a rather graphic one at that. Both victims, stuffed animals, had the same fate- both had been decapitated, that is a pattern! But who would do that?

Foxie is known to be:

Sweet:

Silly:

Kind:

Loving:

You’d never know the more sinister side:

Again, we apologize for such disturbing photos. We suspect the stuff animals only made it 30 minutes after Foxie received access to the Playroom. The evidence does show that Foxie was last seen with the victims and was heard beating her babies, which is a common game she plays, in the front rooms where our first victim was found. This game is reported to get a little loud and often involves a hammer, spatula, or object to “hit” the babies. Foxie was also seen fleeing the crime scene. So we are pretty sure it was Foxie, the one you’d never suspect…

Victim #1, found in Front Room 1:

    In Foxie’s defence, those are clearly stuffed primate dolls and we know how she feels about those! I think that counts as a mitigating circumstance!

      Agreed!.
      Just as the bear un- stuffing went a few years ago, this crime shall remain unsolved!
      Justice for Foxie!

      ( And since no one tried using the stuffing for a bed, I would totally be trying to sew their heads back on and give them another chance!)

        Agreed! Perhaps Dr. Erin is available to execute a head reattachment; no anesthesia need be expended.

          It can be done! I understand a crocodile stuffie in South Korea has been resuscitated multiple times!

    And I thought she only “beat” her dolls when she didn’t have two dolls to click their legs together… she likes the noise it makes.
