Welcome 2016 - Plushiland Finds New Home

After many months of Exile (storage boxes), Plushiland has finally found a new home. We are now living in somewhat reduced circumstances compared to before, but we make the best of it. Before we were allowed into Plushiland we had to experience the indignity of being vacuumed to remove any storage dust.

Speaking of Indignity for Plushis. See how some Disneys have been treated in London, Brit-Plush.

Indignity in London, Mostly Mickey Mouse, who I really do not like!

During the year some of us were able to travel. Piep Mouse and Nooshie travelled to the United States. This was one of those trips that, I, Ratti von Plush did not go on. I do not travel with Nooshie as he is far too anti-Plush (social). I am hoping to travel to the USA later this year to meet some local PLushis.

Around the Royal Birthday Month, November we travelled to the seaside, to get away from the hectic affairs of Plushiland. The weather was not great and the venue was a bit boring. But if you have to depend on The HUMANS to make the travel arrangements, this is what happens.

We are really hoping in 2016 to keep the number of new Plushis down but there seems to be a constant stream into Plushiland. At least we have a large balcony from which we can look down on the HUMANS.

Let me take this opportunity to wish all Plushis in the HUMAN world a wonderful 2016. Hoping that your HUMANS treat you well.

Plushiland in Exile & Royal Visit to Monaco

Some may wonder why We have been quiet for a while. Well, we must tell you that currently Plushiland is in Exile. We had to give up Plushi Towers. WE are currently trying to find a new home. This means that many members of Plushiland are currently in suspended fluff animation. To you, this means they are currently sleeping in boxes in storage. Only the Elite of Plushiland managed to escape this fate, Ourself included. We are now in reduced circumstances and have to make do with much less space. We all  hope that we will find a new permanent home soon, but this is proving to be difficult.

Plushiland in Exile

These difficulties did not stop some of US from making a small Royal Visit to Monaco last month. We arrived at Nice (Nizza) and were collected by car. Thereafter We had lunch in Nice. There was a brilliant view from the hotel.

Later We flew by helicopter to Monaco. I am happy to report that our accommodation in Monaco was up to my high standards. We also met a local Disney, who gave us insights into how the Rich Plushis live.

I made a trip to look at the yachts after having an early breakfast at a local coffee shop. Nothing for me, they had everything but fluff on the menu. To those who care, trying to find something decent to eat as a Vegetarian in Monaco or France is not easy. The fluff also smells a bit funny there too, like the cheese too ripe.

We managed to acquire another Von Plush while in Monaco, Prince Albert Von Plush of Monaco. I think he is a bit disappointed at the accommodation he has found here back at Plushiland-in-Exile. Oh yes and Prince George of Brit-Plush has a sister, but they are in storage, so not much news coming through.

 I hope to soon have the rest of my minions out of storage, but as We are dependent on the HUMAN for this it might take a while.

We shall hopefully be posting more often again. Very unreliable Fluff-Net here (Internet).

Ratti Von Plush Visits Brit-Plush (England)

London from our plane.

As mentioned in my last update, I was planning to visit Brit-Plush (England). I am pleased to report that I had a very successful trip. We flew from Plushiland into London City Airport, where we were collected by a car and taken to our accommodation.






I demanded suitable transport, but had to settled for taxis and public transport, the London Underground (Tube). Horrible all the smelly HUMANS. When you get HUMAN smell on your Fluff it is very hard to get rid of it again. Nasty smelly HUMANS.

Suitable Ratti transport

We visited the Tower of Brit-Plush (London). Where lots of "Off with his head" happened. The Lady Edna joined me on my two visits to the Tower of Brit-Plush. I was interested to see where the English Kings got rid of their enemies in the past. I also like the DIAMONDS in the Crown Jewels.

After hectic days in London we had to get away to the country. We stayed in a decent hotel close to Oxford.

Bedtime for Plushis

We made a trip into the town of Oxford the next day. Of course our numbers grew, and I had to travel back to the hotel with the two new members of Plushiland, Charlie Bear and Peter Rabbit. I would like to complain that this arrangement did not suit me in the slightest.

Crammed in a bag with strangers. Disgusting!

Well, I am now recovering from my trip, back here in Plushiland. That is all I have time for now. Ba Humbug.

Winter Sun, Crocodiles and Extinction

In Plushiland we have been enjoying the summer sun. Some weeks back Gediva and his Cousins took a trip to the Big River. While at night Plushiland watches Plushi-Appropriate films.

Home again watching cartoons

Very bad news has reached us from Australia. It seems that you HUMANS are responsible for many creatures (always the small Mammals) being on the verge of extinction. Well the HUMAN Politicians in Australia are not the greatest, a lot of the Flat-Earthers and Global Warming Deniers over there. And as usual the animals introduced by you HUMANS are causing all the problems, foxes and the Devil's own creation the CAT! Ba I hate Cats. Not as much as I hate that Mickey Mouse, but that is another story.

Cute Aussie Mammals soon to be gone. (picture Jonathan Webb)

Save my ME! (picture Kym Brennan)

In other news the Independent reports that Crocodiles like to play with balls, While you see are Handbags and Shoes! Shame on YOU!

Who will play with me?

Come in and Play (source the Independent.co.uk)

Due to circumstances beyond our control I have had to delay part of my planned Royal Visit. But I will still be visiting England soon. I may have time to post between my engagements and I hope that the Euro will still be around when I next post. Invest in Diamonds, YOU have been warned. Gold has already increased in value. Or there is always Bitcoin. Maybe I should introduce Ratti-Coin.

Plushis meeting The Washing Machine - Full Immersion Method

A shocking discovering was made last week. Just outside of Plushiland, the HUMAN discovered a Plushi in the trash/rubbish bin. The poor thing was immediately rescued but had to be keep apart from the rest of Plushiland, to prevent the spread of Dustbin (Trash Can) Plushi Disease. So the monkey in question had to be washed, before being allowed to enter Plushiland.

Post wash, Dumpster Minkey Von Plush

Unfortunately, some of the older residents of Plushiland ended up being washed as well. This was a terrible experience and not one enjoyed by any Plushi. The HUMAN uses the Full Immersion Method (a Washing Machine). We were washed in a Washing machine, like ordinary washing and had to hold our breath. This was the first time that this particular machine was used and it was not terribly successful. We, the Plushis, in the machine became unbalanced when the machine started to spin. We had been put into washing bags to protect us, but this was the causing the load (Us) to become unbalanced, and so the machine refused to spin. The machine was manually drained, while we lay in a soggy heap, locked in the machine. Once the water was drained, the door could be opened, we were taken out of the washing bags and then spun again. Horrible, horrible, horrible... Our Head is still spinning a week later. Finally, we were dry enough to let out, very unhappy and very spun. After that we had to spend a day on a drying rack. Never again WE say. The smaller ones suffered most, like Us and Gediva, as the larger, fatties landed on us repeatedly. We demand that in future we are sent to dry cleaners.

On the Rack with Royalty, Gediva (top middle)

I have been looking at purchasing property recently, but I think this bird feeder is a bit too small for me and my DIAMONDS.

A bit too small

Good news is that the number of Indian Tigers increase by 30% to 2226. The number of Tigers in Plushiland remains constant at the present.

Plushiland Tiger numbers remain constant.

But in the UK the government will be paying farmers to kill Grey squirrels (yes, get rid of the Foreigners!!! They are to blame for everything), I thought farmers killed things because it was there nature/job. Since when do you have to pay them to kill things? All nature should be replaced by factory farming, parking lots and Shopping Centres. Yippee. (This is Irony)

We may be making a number of ROYAL visits soon, watch this space for details. Maybe your country will be lucky enough to host Us soon.

Christmas Plushiland 2014, Ratti von Plush Give DIAMONDS

It is time once more for Christmas. It is my 12th Christmas. Today, WE received a Royal Sled. And later WE will be travelling around the world to collect Diamonds. Bit like Father Christmas, only difference is that you give US, Father Ratti Christmas the Presents. High, Value, Portable Property; Diamonds Preferred.

Plushiland welcomes another orphan

Plushiland at the Movies. Lord Gediva, is closest to the camera.

In OUR last post WE mentioned the Paddington Bear Movie. Well some Plushiland representatives went and saw it with THE HUMAN. Well it was very boring and they went to sleep during the movie. HUMAN children might like it. BUT London is not nearly as welcoming as the movie suggests. Enough said!

And another orphan finds a home at Christmas

Wrap up warm

Well We must be off and start collecting OUR gifts. Seems that squirrels are responsible for global warming. Not it not Squirrels, YOU HUMANS are to Blame.

So Merry Christmas and Merry Plush. I will be back in the new Year, and all years are the Year of the Ratti.
