You've got a short memory Pfinder
Eddie picked Ccat up and threw it up in the air. He didn't alert to it
Even when it was placed at the bottom of the cupboard, Eddie sniffed really close, inches from it, twice, but did not alert either time.
Later, after Martin G had insisted Eddie checked the counter above, he alerted to a pile of folders, papers on the top of the cupboard counter. These were feet away from CCat.
Martin mistakenly took that as an alert to CCat.
Eddie was alerting to the papers.
Eddie DID NOT alert to CCat.
"Eddie DID NOT alert to CCat" I agree with you Sadie.
"Eddie was alerting to the papers". I agree the first of his two alerts in the villa was to that pile on the sideboard.
The pile he sniffs just before alerting.
However in that pile are folded
clothes.
Everything in the box labelled "sala comum" came from IMO on the dining table or on that sideboard.
