Welcome to our weekly round-up on The Pet Parade. We're sure mew know that today is Friday the 13th, a most auspicious day in our calendar. Though many believe it is a day of bad luck, which we think is utter nonsense, here's a few common and rather misguided supurrstitions:
Fudge decided in his great wisdom to get stuck up a tree again. He'd been outside fur a whole five minutes when a pigeon landed in the conifer tree next door.
It's not Where's Wally, It's Where's Fudge!!!
1. Black cats
You’re doomed to bad luck if a black cat crosses your path.
2. Mirrors
If you break a mirror, kiss 7 years of luck goodbye.
3. Ladders
They say walking under a ladder is bad luck.
4. Salt
If you spill salt, you’re suppose to throw it over your shoulder to avoid getting bad luck
4. Purses
You should never leave your purse on the floor if you want to avoid bad luck.
5. 6.66
If a bill total $6.66 or you receive that much change you should either buy something else or leave a penny from your change to avoid bad luck
6. Umbrellas
Opening an umbrella indoors is said to bring bad luck.
7. Cutting Your Hair
If you cut your hair on Friday the 13th, legend says someone in your family will die.
Appurrently there's even speshul terminology for fearing Friday the 13th - Friggatriskaidekaphobia or Paraskevidekatriaphobia are the go to wurds if mew suffer from this rather bizarre phobia. To be honest the wurds sound more threatening than anything!
Our Friday the 13th challenge to mew today is to say:
Figgatriskaidekaphobia Paraskevidekatriaphobia
three times really really fast!!! MOL MOL

Anyhoo, swiftly moving on aftur that terrific tongue-twister...
Fudge decided in his great wisdom to get stuck up a tree again. He'd been outside fur a whole five minutes when a pigeon landed in the conifer tree next door.
It's not Where's Wally, It's Where's Fudge!!!
And no he didn't catch the pigeon, he just meowed pitifully at the P.A. and took 20 minutes to get down. I have no wurds fur his innate ability to get repeatedly stuck up something!
Oh and before we furget...
