Blankie Snatcher

There comes a time in every plushie’s life when you must ask yourself:
Do I really need another blanket?
And the answer, obviously, is yes.
Always yes. Especially when someone else is using it.

Thus begins:
The Blanket Heist.

It’s not about stealing (we’re too soft for crime).
It’s about… redistributing comfort.

Here’s how to do it right:

🧭 Step 1: Choose Your Target

The best blankets are:

• Already warm

• Draped over a friend

• Soft enough to bury your entire face in
  
  

Bonus if it smells like lavender or cocoa.

Target acquired? Good. Proceed to phase two.

🐾 Step 2: The Stealthy Approach

Speed is the enemy. You must move like fog… but cuter.

Crawl. Scoot. Flop.
Use pillows for cover. If questioned, pretend to nap mid-heist (“I was just stretching!” works too).

Mini Blue is my lookout. They blink twice if Pandy stirs. Or once if there’s hot cocoa nearby (I sometimes misinterpret this, but it’s worth it).

🧵 Step 3: The Gentle Tug

Grip the blanket with a single paw.
Then… tug. Slowly. Like you’re coaxing a cloud out of the sky.

If your target shifts—freeze. Look innocent. Hum a little tune.

If successful, you’ll soon have at least partial burrito status.

🥇 Step 4: Full Blanket Domination (Optional)

For the advanced snuggler:

• Wait until your friend gets up for tea.

• Roll. Roll again.

• Pretend to be asleep when they return.

Note: This works on Pandy exactly once per day.

🐾 Final Notes from a Blanket Heist Veteran:

• Share if they look chilly.

• Never take Mini Blue’s blankie (it’s sacred).

• Fluff before and after for maximum plush integrity.
  
  

Cozy Rule #47:
“A stolen blanket is twice as warm. A shared blanket is three times warmer.”

You didn’t hear that from me.
…But I’ll scoot over. 😉
