Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Let’s face it, we’re all waiting for something big to happen in our pocket-sized Springfields. While we’re waiting EA dropped a premium teaser on us, one full of a lot of hissing. Yes, Ms. Claws has arrived in Springfield seeking good boys and girls to throw catnip at and bad boys and girls to scratch the crap out of.
So now, let’s all enjoy the full questline version for Ms. Claws shall we…
Claws Out Pt. 1
CCL starts
Ms. Claws: *hisssss*
Lisa: Ms. Abernathy? Is that you? Why are you dressed up like Santa?
Cletus: Careful, little one! That there is Ms. Claws. You be nice or them felines will take your eye!
Lisa: Okay, I’m game. Who, or what, is Ms. Claws?
Make Cletus Tell the Story of Ms. Claws- 4hrs, Earns $175, 45xp
Cletus: Every year at Hissmasstime, Ms. Claws leaves her secret shack at the West Pole and flies around the world, spreading anxiety and unease. She gives catnip to the good girls and boys, and claws the bad ones right in the face!
Lisa: And who makes the catnip? Does she have elves, like Santa?
Cletus: No. Orcs. A big pile of ‘em. High as a mountain. The orc pile spends all year making catnip, then they spend Hissmass Day in furious breeding. It’s perfectly logical, when you thinks about it.
Claws Out Pt. 2
CCL starts
Ms. Claws: *purrr*
Lisa: So where is Mr. Claws while all this is happening?
Cletus: Guarding the homestead. Mr. Claws sits on the porch, shotgun in his lap, ready to blast Santa Claus if’n he starts any mischief. The Clauses and the Clawses have been feudin’ for years. Santa and his kin got sore at the Clawses over a land deal what went bad. Whole generations of Clauses and Clawses have been wiped out. And there’s nothin’ the Sheriff of Holiday County can do about it, if he values his skin.
Lisa: What a beautiful holiday tale.
Make Ms. Claws Make Cats Festive- 8hrs, Earns $420, 105xp
Lisa: Aw. So cute! Seeing those cats so festive makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
Cletus: Don’t let your guard down on Hissmass, or you’ll be face-scratched for sure!
Claws Out Pt. 3
CCL starts
Ms. Claws: *rowr*?
Lisa: What is she asking me?
Cletus: Ms. Claws is askin’ if’n you’ve been good or bad. Whether she’s gonna leave you with some nice catnip, or with face welts that never heal.
Lisa: I’m scared.
Cletus: Now yer gettin’ in the Hissmass spirit!
Ms. Claws: *purrr*
Make Ms.Claws Give Out Catnip- 1hr, Earns $105, 26xp
Lisa: Phew. Thanks for the catnip, Ms. Claws! Anxious Hissmass to you!
Ms. Claws: *hands Flanders catnip*
Ned: Why, thank you, Crazy Cat Lady-arino!
Ms. Claws: *hands Marge catnip*
Marge: Is it Hissmass already? The year just flew by!
Ms. Claws: *hands Moe catnip*
Moe: If I’m on the “Good” list, you seriously need to rework your scoring system.
Claws Out Pt. 4
CCL starts
Ms. Claws: *licks hands contentedly*
Lisa: Wow! I guess Springfield is just packed with “Good” people. It seems like everyone is getting catnip this year.
Cletus: Naw, Ms. Claws just likes to do all the “Bad” folk at once. Cats scratch better when they work themselves into a frenzy.
Ms. Claws: *gutteral growling sound*
Cletus: Here it comes!
Make Ms. Claws Give Out Cat Scratches- 4hrs, Earns $260, 70xp
Burns: Smithers! What are all these mangy felines doing here! *shoo*
Ms. Claws: *gutteral growling sound holds up cat that claws Mr. Burns in the face*
Burns: *shrieks* Smithers! I’ve been mauled!
Cletus: Maybe now you’ll let the magic of Hissmass into your heart!
Burns: Hmm. Doubtful.
Claws Out Pt. 5
CCL starts
Ms. Claws: *hisss*
Lisa: I guess we’ve all learned the true meaning of Hissmass.
Cletus: And that is?
Lisa: A magical crazy lady can show up at any time and sic her cats on you, for reasons that are clear only to her.
Cletus: Now you understand. And it’s time to bid Ms. Claws farewell.
Lisa: Hissmass is already over? Ms. Claws is going to turn back into Ms. Abernathy?
Cletus: No! She’s gonna fly the cat sleigh through the night sky.
Make Ms. Claws Drive the Cat Sleigh- 12hrs, Earns $600, 150xp
Cletus: Anxious Hissmass, Ms. Claws! Have fun spreading your bloodcurdling message to boys and girls everywhere!
Lisa: Anxious Hissmass! I promise I’ll never sleep soundly again!
Ms. Claws: *purrr*
And that’s it my friends, Anxious Hissmass to all and to all a restless night!
Thoughts on Ms. Claws’ questline? Dialogue? What do you think the Christmas event will bring? Sound off below, you know we love hearing from you!

Check out this post explaining what happened to disappearing tasks…

🤗 thank you thought I was going crazy even my husband plays and some things are not working for him! Love this game and people ! Georgia
What were the names of the cats pulling the sleigh? They were funny. 🙂
As Emily Litella would say, “Never mind.” They’re hissing again now.
Didn’t get the cat lady Xmas skin, but have the cat lady (my fave). Yesterday the cat sleigh cats would activate/hiss when tapped; today, nothing. ??? I want them hissable again! How do?
They hiss for me when I tap them but the only time they didn’t was when I had Homer on the 4 hour task (Provoke Cats) there so do you have him on that task?
as i said in a previous article comment about getting the login error message a few days before an event starts, it has happened today. just like halloween and every previous event starting from christmas last year, i’m hot with the login error that doesn’t fix until mid way through act 1. sigh, really am over this
Well, I Kem Farmed more then enough to finally decide on getting Crazy Cat Lady / Ms. Claws ….. and I don’t regret it (perfect time-filler preparing for next week’s Event), because I still have over 300 spare 🍩 ‘s – yay! I can take the weekend off from Tapping! 😸
Thanks for posting this Alissa , have a nice weekend fellow Tappers!😀👍
Crazy cat lady has an interesting back story, and a flying cat slay is a hilarious thought, however I feel like there will be better ways to spend my donuts on the Christmas event, especially since I went down to 0 donuts because of Black Friday (and do not at all regret doing so).
I also have a question. I got Sherri and Terri in a Black Friday box and I just finished their main quest, and now a new quest has triggered involving princess Penelope.
My question is the quest requires to place the krustyland entrance in my Springfield, and I remember reading previously that once the enterence is placed in Springfield, it cannot go back to your inventory. Is this still true?
Pretty much…yes. So, place wisely.
Pulling the entrance out of my inventory was a big mistake for me back when krustyland got destroyed.
You need KL entrance to exchange tickets. If you don’t like to look at it hide it behind something.
I hit the same point with the S&T/Penelope quest line, and can’t bring myself to place the Krustyland entrance. I guess I’ll see how long that open task takes to really annoy me…
It’ll slip Into the box of tasks you haven’t touched in a while eventually. My redwood task has been there for a year. Out of sight until you remember that there’s a box there and forget what’s inside.
As a crazy cat lady myself, I immediately grabbed Mrs Claws. Watching her drive the cat sleigh makes my current clowder nervous.
So which task is it that makes her drive her slay again?
Lost all my neighbors…oh well..
I love her driving the car sleigh!!!
I got Ms. Claws immediately! Seriously, kids, this is why I play this game! I just finished the quest line and she flies the cat sleigh!!! LOL!!! I wish I knew how to attach a screenshot. Y’all would laugh!
I havent gotten a notification for the game since thanksgiving, and all my notifications settings are turned on
As a last resort, you could uninstall and re-install. Can’t think of anything else. 🤔
I plan to when i get home…. thanks ebron!
I agree that we should be able to buy land with our in game money. I need to move some things around and the tokens just don’t do it.
ILove the cat lady and her sleigh! 😻
Ufff… Can’t connect to the server. Hate the Bart Screen!
I’ve had the Bart screen more than 10 times over the last few days, particularly when visiting my neighbour’s towns.
Loving the dialogue for this one, great idea. Thanks for posting Allisa.
Hopefully this event will bring back the ability to BUY LAND!!!! I have 750 million dollars and the only this to spend it on for each event is a new fence or wall. Free land tokens are great but give us the option to buy it.
I often wonder why they haven’t opened up the space behind the Springfield heights area.
You and millions of other TSTO players…
Right? Springfield is like 4x wider thanks Springfield Heights. It’s just silly.
It is where Area 51 is located.
