FEAGF  =  GAFFE,  RNOWS  =  SWORN,  LASRWU  =  WALRUS,  ZECIRO  =  COZIER   —   Giving us:  AFESWRWRUOER

Clue/Question:  Her cat slept on her sweater, and now it was – – –

Answer:  WORSE “FUR“ WEAR

(Ooh!  That’s a good, stinky pun!  Cat FUR and YUR.  We’re COZIER than a WALRUS, but I won’t shred your couch, or your curtains!  I’ve SWORN to give you my unadulterated opinions on puzzles and society, and occasionally I make a GAFFE, or two.  Like it or lump it, I’m the grump and the ump, who doesn’t need to stump it, or pump it.

WE HAVE A NEW CLUE WORD TODAAY!!!  Pretending to sound like Oprah.  And that clue word is “gaffe”!  Yes, our good friend, ralis95, will have to add this to his world famous clue word database.  Make no mistake about it!  And, all of today’s jumbles appear to be new.  They were all good, but not as good as the answer letter layout.  That was a wondrous jumble.  Cryptic and challenging.

The cartoon does a great job of showing life with a cat.  Despite the scratching post, it’s clear that he/she has clawed the couch.  Both the sweater and the couch cushions are covered with fur.  And, in the corner of the back room, you can see my deal breaker, the litter box!  I love kitties, but unless they can be trained to use a toilet, I can no longer be bothered with them.  A fun and furry Friday Jumble!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
