"You know some one's been getting away with a lot of valuable truck from the fellows' rooms. It would be an awfully clever stunt to catch him. Why don't you snoop around and find out who it is?" "There's ijeers and ijeers," said Jerry. "I got my ijeers too. I ain't got no need to snoop around.
"Dinah is going, isn't she?" asked Nan. "Oh, yes, we couldn't get along without her," answered Mrs. Bobbsey with a smile. "And I'm going to take Snoop!" cried Freddie, hugging the big, black cat, which did not seem to mind being loved so hard. "Well if Snoop goes, then we ought to take Snap, the dog, too," declared Bert. "Snap would be lonesome if he were left behind, wouldn't he?"
Of course none of them could come back to tell how it was there, or draw back once he got started through Grandpaw's spring-closing, one-way door. One long, thin rabbit called Snoop, who was always trying to see everything in advance, tried to jerk back after he got his head through, but Grandpaw's door caught him just back of the ears, and he decided to go on in.
"Neither am I," said his sister. "Never, never!" Snap didn't say anything. He lay on the porch asleep, being cooled off after his sport with the water. "I I wish we had our cat, Snoop, back," said Flossie. "Then we wouldn't have played in the water." "That's so," agreed Freddie. "I wonder where he can be?"
The two younger Bobbsey twins were about to set off on a search for their pet when they saw Tommy Todd coming toward them, with the black cat in his arms. "I've found her for you," he said, smiling. "She's all right, only a little scared I guess, 'cause her heart's beating awful fast." "Thank you, little man," said Mr. Bobbsey. "Oh, Snoop!
The engineer lifted poor, wet, dripping Snoop into his boat. She crawled close up to Captain White, for she was much frightened. After Snap had delivered the cat he had rescued, he turned back again. "Where are you going?" asked Captain White. "Don't you want to get in my boat, too, Snap?" "Bow wow!" barked Snap. This time he could open his mouth, as he was not carrying a cat.
There was no skating, and the little flurry of snow there had been was not enough for coasting, but they had other fun. "Do your ducks miss our duck Downy?" asked Freddie of his cousin Harry. "Well, I guess they do," was the laughing answer, for Freddie and Flossie had a pet duck which they took about with them almost as faithfully as they did Snoop. "How is Downy, anyhow?" asked Harry.
"And I'll help," offered Flossie. Soon all was in readiness for the start to the depot where the Bobbseys would take the train for Meadow Brook. Just as the automobile came up to the door to take the family, there arose a cry from the direction of the side porch where Flossie and Freddie had gone with the cat-cage, in which to put Snoop. "Oh, my!" exclaimed Mrs. Bobbsey.
"I'm going to make a regular ark like the play one I've got home," said Freddie, "only mine will be a big one with room for us all, besides Frisky, Snoop, Fluffy, and " "Old Bill. We'll need a horse to tow us back when the water goes down," laughed Harry. Freddie went on working as seriously as if he really expected to be a little Noah and save all the people from the flood.
"It's a cat!" shouted Freddie. "It's Snoop our Snoop!" cried Flossie. Quickly the boxes were carried into the house. Bert got a hammer and screw driver and soon had opened the one containing the black cat. Snap, the dog, walked slowly into the room. "Oh dear!" cried Flossie as she saw him, "now maybe they'll fight!" "I'll hold Snap," volunteered Freddie. "Come on, Snoop!
