I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore the cache or communication from the cache owner CatWomanAU requesting additional time, within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note, and it appears that the cache has been abandoned.

###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.
The cache will be disabled and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either
- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated in a Note log here, when action will be taken
**If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then we can only assume that the cache has been abandoned and, regrettably, it will be archived.**
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Thank you

Looked here, looked there, read the hint, searched for a while bit didn‘t found anything. As security man passed by we interrupted the search. No luck today.
That is one cute cache in a twisty tree thank you CatWomanAU for the placement. An early morning find and wander. It is not often that a cache is that obvious in an area where muggles frequent. However I guess no foot traffic behind helps.
After enjoying some tea at Mortys we headed into town to do some caching as the streets were quite. Spent some time wandering around city park doing the Mystery cache, then moved on to some other caches close to the town center.
Loved to visit the Musium as A child and could sit in the Planetarium for ages. Must take my children to the new one
Had my eye on the other Twisty thing first, But then read the hint. Thanks Steam Hammer for the hide

Thought I was going round the twist for a minute then straightened myself out and found it nearby quickly. TFTC
During our journey through Australia (from Darwin to Melbourne through the outback, one week on Tasmania and back from Sydney to Cairns) I found this cache.
TFTC and greetings from Germany!

After touching every part of the twirling thing my co-cacher red all about the leaves and then it was clear where to look. Tftc.
Tftc found with divehelen and johnandollie. A bit drizzly this evening. Tomorrow we head off on the overland track.
Found, it didn’t take too long either. TFTC
Here is a photo as proof of the find:

Quick find after a day working on the dungeon of the art gallery next door. TFTC
Standard cache with a straightforward find once reading the hint. Some muggles wanted to get into QVMAG but turned around when they realised free entry wasn't available. TFTC!
Tassie Trip Day 187 - Today we started the day getting a few things finally fixed with the GeoVehicle as the horn was not working and the Aircon was failing they both got fixed and we finally got out of the mid afternoon so it was back to the camp and we decided we would have dinner at that pub again. So we needed to return to a previous location to collect the next piece of information for a multi we were working on so whilst there this time with a little more time to spend before making our way to that wonderful pub for a great pot and parmigiana.
After arriving at the location the short walk to the cache was made and the cache was found and the log signed.
Thanks CatWomanAU for bring us here to catch a smiley.

On our tour around Tassie we made here a quick stop.
After a while looking we can find the cache.
Thank you and greetings from Germany send Moorhelmi

We are in Launceston for Mr W to attend a Bowl's carnival at Trevallyn, so Mrs W thought she would locate some caches in high muggle areas while it was quiet on a Sunday morning. The cache was located about 8 m from GZ. An older cache so nice to cross off the list. TFTC
Camped at Launceston, out around town today for a few caches. Quick find, good coordinates. Cache all good. Hint a little misleading. TFTC
Spiderwebs kept me from finding this one faster. Still afraid of Aussie spiders. Tftc.
Searched a bit, read hint, then a few logs... then found quickly. Hardest was stealth w 2 construction workers standing directly across the road- early mornings are usually so easy! I waited them out and a garbage truck passing helped!
We are on holidays, staying in Launceston with our grandson. We stopped to find this one, but found the clue a little misleading. Thanks CatWomanAU
In Tassie with family doing a short trip around this lovely island. We saw some amazing scenery, wildlife and visited some beautiful places while touring around in our motorhome. I took the opportunity to stop and grab any caches when we could stop. We only had a few DNF's and made some good discoveries and clever hides during the trip. We had some fun and laughs along the way.
It was a warm day, as we wandered around the CBD picking up a few of the hides. With no professionals about, there were few muggles about at midday, so it allowed us to make a quick find, unlike ordinary circumstances.
Thanks CatWomanAU for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

Another day of sunshine and enjoying some sightseeing before a week on the east coast. Thanks for the cache in an interesting location.
Staying the evening in town on my way to Cradle Mountain. Had a little time to kill so came out for a walk and made a find here.
Cheers

After a spot of dinner we decided to grab one more cache on the way back to the hotel. This had us walking in circles until we stopped over thinking it. TNLN. TFTC.
In town from Adelaide, on my way to Cataract and collected some caches on the way.
Thanks CatWomanAU

Hello CatWomanAU thank you for the cache.
A quick find in at night.
I wanted to find some caches so I could get some Hidden Creatures souvenirs that I can proudly display on my profile page that no one will see.
I travelled up from Hobart for this search.
