Witch cat watchcat protocol XLII

I didn't begrudge Watchcat Collette for needing a nap break last night.  Fortunately, her two backup witch cats were able to work their dark magic on trespassers when needed:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXXII

When a watchcat looks at you with opaque eyes, don't assume that he isn't watching your every move:

August 2015: Watchcat Nemo maintained his poker face while studying a visitor's movements.

Watchcat protocol MMLXXXI

When someone enters a watchcat's assigned sector, the watchcat sizes up the situation quickly to determine if the person is a security risk.  Watchcat Sylvia did such an assessment on November 1, 2012:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXX

There's no reason a watchcat can't chew her nails when pondering a big security-related decision:

 October 2003: After thoughtful deliberation, Watchcat Rosie arrived at a reasonable conclusion.

Watchcat protocol MMLXXIX

Did a trespasser's offense warrant a visit to the Watchcat Headquarters Star Chamber?  Proxy Nemo and Watchcat Lily mulled it over on October 25, 2024:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXVIII

Watchcat Sammy showed his disapproval toward visitors who didn't have proper credentials in September 2009:

Fortunately, Sammy's mildly disdainful expression made visitors retrieve their required ID forms before approaching his security checkpoint again.

Watchcat protocol MMLXXVII

Watchcat Lily and Blue Cat made sure that every visitor to their assigned sector yesterday passed through their security checkpoint:

Thanks to their vigilance, everyone felt safer.

Witch cat watchcat protocol XLI

Who wouldn't feel secure with this triple threat security team?

October 22, 2024: The witch cats and Watchcat Collette had their assigned sector covered.

Watchcat protocol MMLXXVI

Watchcat Sylvia purred contentedly during guard duty in November 2008.  To appear authoritative to visitors, however, she adopted a weary, seen-it-all-before expression:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXV

Watchcat Rosie's eyes told visitors, "I trust you have an appointment, right?"  Not even Watchcat Headquarters dared to question her attitude in October 2004:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXIV

Watchcat Sammy hoped that his fixed stare would be enough to deter a trespasser from crossing into his assigned sector in October 2008:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXIII

What was that slight hint of movement in Watchcat Nemo's assigned sector?  Watchcat Nemo kept a close eye on it in October 2008:

Watchcat protocol MMLXXII

Watchcat Lily ruled her assigned sector with a firmly but fairly applied kick toy on September 14, 2023:

Witch cat watchcat protocol XL

When you choose the palace guard option from my home security service, you receive 24-7 protection from Watchcat Collette and two witch cats:

I've been feeling quite safe since they began their shift today.

Watchcat protocol MMLXXI

No napping was allowed in Watchcat Nemo's sector without his approval:

November 2013: Watchcat Nemo made sure visitors didn't sleep on his watch.

Watchcat protocol MMLXX

In June 2015, Watchcat Sylvia's eyes conveyed, "Don't take this the wrong way, visitor, but I'll be scrutinizing your actions in my assigned sector.  It's just what watchcats do.  If I determine that you pose no threat to anyone, you'll hear me purr loudly:"

Watchcat protocol MMLXIX

Watchcat Rosie gave agility training her all in November 2010.  She didn't grab the Cat Dancer toy immediately, however.  Instead, she plotted her attack strategically:

She approached scofflaws the same way.

Watchcat protocol MMLXVIII

Watchcat Sammy was skeptical of the stranger's reason for being in his assigned sector:

Nevertheless, he resolved to keep an open mind and hear the stranger out in October 2009:

Watchcat protocol MMLXVII

Are visitors safe from intruders in Watchcat Lily's assigned sector?  Absolutely.  Watchcat Lily's expression made that clear on July 20, 2022:

Watchcat protocol MMLXVI

Watchcat Nemo picked up signals from the radio that only he could hear.  Somehow, he was able to hear them even when the radio was off.  I'm not sure how he acted on them, but they provided him with vital security information in October 2017:

Watchcat protocol MMLXV

This is the look a watchcat often gives the person she's guarding before telling that person, "OK, here's the plan; here's how you'll stay safe on my watch:"

Watchcat Sylvia had my best interests at heart, as her eyes showed in November 2008.

Watchcat protocol MMLXIV

Watchcat Sammy could have used the chair as his guard post in April 2003.  Instead, he sat near it so he could chase scofflaws when necessary:

Watchcat protocol MMLXIII

A watchcat can say a lot with her eyes.  On October 3, 2024, Watchcat Collette's eyes conveyed to visitors, "The rules in my assigned sector are what I say they are:"

Watchcat protocol MMLXII

To make sure no one walks off with your food or beverage, ask a watchcat to guard them.  Watchcat Rosie took this responsibility seriously in October 2006:

Watchcat protocol MMLXI

Watchcat Nemo was ready to leap out at any trespasser in October 2012:

Watchcat protocol MMLX

Per Watchcat Headquarters, not every guard post needs to be an armored fortress.  Sometimes, a cardboard box is sufficient:

Watchcat Collette was content with that reasoning on October 2, 2024.

Watchcat protocol MMLIX

Watchcat Sylvia eschewed drinking faucet water in September 2015 so she could focus exclusively on her assigned sector:

That's one committed watchcat.

Watchcat protocol MMLVIII

When Watchcat Lily summons you to the Watchcat Headquarters Star Chamber, take her directive seriously:

Watchcat Lily held court on September 26, 2024.  The details of the confidential proceedings are sealed.

Watchcat protocol MMLVII

Visitors knew better than to wear Watchcat Sammy's shoes in November 2009:

Watchcat protocol MMLVI

Based on her expression, Watchcat Rosie wasn't giving a visitor the benefit of the doubt in December 2006:

Watchcat protocol MMLV

A tiger tail might seem ineffectively soft for a watchcat to use as a weapon.  When wielded with maximum force, however, it's surprisingly painful:

Watchcat Nemo knew this, so he used discretion in October 2009.
