Speaking of guilt...Winston has a dark side...

[Sherri, Sophie, Winston, & Kitty]

I hate to say it, but I have to come to terms with it eventually. My 'supposedly' sweet and innocent "Pooh Bear" has a dark side. That's right, there's no denying it any longer. I have photographic evidence of his misdeeds. Poor Sophie Bear will never be the same again.

 

And to think, I trusted him!

 

He is Winnie the Pooh no longer. Winston the Wicked is his new name, and ripping up innocent creatures is his game.

 

First, he tore the face right off this cat:

Then he ripped the head right off of this squirrel:  NOT Piggy too!!! The first toy I ever bought Sophie Bear. How my heart aches. RIP Piggy!

 

What should I do with the guilty culprit?

 

 

[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

OMD!! Tara kills stuffies too but only by removing their brains. Once the brains are out she leaves them whole??? It's quite frightening really! LOL!   So we mostly use stuffies for games (find it, bring it, etc) which include mommy!! Once the game is over the stuffies go back on the shelf!  So my suggestion for dealing with this stuffie killer is a big kiss and no more free time with the stuffies!!

[Deanna & Desi & Cori]

Our sweet little Sedona is a stuffie killer, too.  Worse than that, she's a sadistic torturer.  Rather than a quick kill, she'll find the one loose thread and pull and tug and nip and chew until...  We stopped buying stuffies, even the ones marked "extremely durable".    

 

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

Haha, Peri is wicked too.  She destroys all stuffed animals - first by ripping their eyes out, then by pulling their heads off.  We can't have any of those in the house anymore!

[Amy, Cubbie & Ollie]

Ollie and Winston must be from the same "wicked" gang.  Stuffies are not safe around our house either (which is bad for Cubbie because he LOVES anything soft and squeeky).  We only put the soft toys out when we are sitting there watching them and recently there have not been any needless stuffie deaths.  Sometimes Ollie will carry them around gently but then as soon as you turn your back, he goes in for the attack.

Throw her in the play pen and call her  an "in-mutt."

[Liana & Jindi]

With the evidence right there...... I'm sure he is still saying " IT WASN'T ME " LOL  What a gorgeous photo.

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Uh!  Ned and especially Clancy, say you can send him to our house, land of the ripped and torn stuffies; land of the fluffy stuffing decorating every room in the house!

[Sue, Murphy and Bella ()*o*()]

Oh Donna, that is too funny, "he is probably already stuffed"  Sherri, Winston is not alone in finding stuffies irresistable. Murphy had the "Hide a Squirrel" Game for 9 months before he finally bit some of the squirrels heads off, but with Bella, there is NOTHING stuffed, cloth, soft, chewable or rip-able around her that she can't destroy in record time.

So I say he's in good company and just doing what doodle do....chew!  I'm with you Bonnie, antlers and kongs here too.

[BG and Gavin]

Gavin hasn't looked a stuffy in the eye since he was nine months old.  Maybe I should give him a second chance?  Anyway I think probation is an appropriate disposition as well.

Gavin says "Free Winston!"

[Rose Ann and Amante]

Probation!! LOL
