RECOMMENDATION: BRING A PENCIL AND PAPER. (It will make your job easier.)

SORE TOWE (Phase 1):(A simple decoder phase.) Find the words on a nearby building and decode them using the following decoder. That will give you the coordinates to the second phase.
A=1 Second E=2 Third E=1 F=W First I=5 First M=3 Second M=6 Third M=3 First O=3 Fourth O=0 First T=N Second T=1 First U=4 Second U=7 Third U=2 V=8 W=8

LITTLE PAWS (Phase 2): (A traditional cache phase.) This is one of several cat settlements I have found while geocaching. Just like Cat City, someones have provided wooden homes with roofs and have continued to provide food and water.

If only these cats knew what they were camped next to! Most of them woulda got outta here a long time ago! But a few brave cat souls do know. I've looked inside their homes. Those braver cats are determined to free their feline friends and relatives. They have dug extensive tunnels from inside their houses towards the neighbor's yards. Someday there will be a huge breakout and freedom will meeow everywhere!!!! (Don't try to see the tunnels under the houses...The claw guards informed me that besides myself, only United Nations inspectors, Red Cross Inspectors and Kraftinkat, Wetpaws, Drypaws, and Team Spirit of '76' will be allowed to inspect them. Robbie, Sailor, and Tahoe are specifically excluded!)

When you get to phase two, the coordinates will put you close to the cache but not directly on it because the sputniks won't reach under the trees. Facing the bushes (and the highway noise), you are in direct line with the cache. Go a few feet to the left of the coordinates to enter behind the bushes and you will be in Catland.

The cache is in a small tupperwear container concealed in a black plastic doggie poop pickup bag. The cats all think that is hilarious ..... it really hits their funny bones. They laugh every time. I have never heard a cat laugh before ..... It is a loud "Har, Har, Har". ...you can't imagine how is sounds. (Don't be surprised if they break out in laughter if they see you with the bag!)

Have fun. If a cat challenges you, lower your back, reveal your palms and purr.

Initial contents of the cache include:
Big Nosed Stuffed Dog (Boy is he in trouble!)
Wedding ring. (Not Kolly Wobbels or mine.)
Smiley Face (Again not mine, but it could be.)
Metal ticker. (Not an artificial heart.)
Nightime world feet. (That should get NightKnight's attention!)
March 2004 Election Pin (I don't have any need for that anymore.)

Opps! I forget to include a pen.

I was challenged by a representative of the neighboring property owners. I gave him a lesson in geocaching and he had no problem with what we were doing (on public land). Amazingly, he does not know what goes on behind the bushes right next to his property! He still doesn't know. An entire cat suburb next to him and he is clueless. I decided there is a purr-ty good chance he is not a good prospect for recruiting a new geocacher.

  • Phase 2 Hint: If you have to use this hint, your geocaching skills are about as good as the vapor coming from the black and white kittys that visit this site.
