hi its Neekah Boo
Hi there WooHoo Nappers how are you doing today? I was doing pretty good until I did something silly and I'm limping again so back in my crate I went, bummer. I've been in that thing for over 12 weeks is getting old so my mommy started letting me out. Little by little I was getting back to normal if normal is sitting up and wanting to walj on two feet not four. I'm seven months old and liook like im 4 or 5 month old and don't know I'm a cat yet. Still learning balance and how to land on all fours. Keeps my mommy on her toes. Your moon pie party sounds fun. I love parties. Hope you have a super great week. Meow meow and remember to snuggle snuggle Love Neekah Boo

Hi Woo Hoo Nappers its very nice to meet you. Boy I love all you pictures. My mommy is just learning all this blog stuff so everthing is new.She says were not so computer smart but we need to try hard when we learn something new. Yes we are a kitty family there are no two legged children that I know of. There are to other kittys one is named Fatty ( maine coone mix) which I dont get cause shes small and the other one looks just like me. I want to be her very very best friend but I dont think she likes me to much yet. My mommy says even though she is the middle cat she thinks shes the ruler of the universe. ( alpha kitty of the house) I dont care I love her anyway and I curl up with her and when she hisses at me I just smile at her and tell her I love her. My mommy says shes just sad and afraid see she lost her parents her mommy left her at 2 and her papa died when she was 6 and he pass away at home and she was there with him for 2 days alone and scared. So my mommy says just to be patient with her its not like she mean to me just hisses. So right now im still doing crate time for another week and a half feels like forever. You all are so kind to ask about how im doing thank you soooooo much. There are such nice cats and people in the world makes me happt. We were very sad to hear about your previous kitty no longet being here makes us both very sad. Cats hold such a special place in our hearts. Well have to go for now and thank you very much for introducing yourselves we love your site. Meow meow remember to snuggle snuggle love Neekah Boo

Hi My sweet Gingersnaps!
Just wanted to let you know that we are back ONLINE! Yah! Guess what!? A new Tom kitty has been hanging around,and he is determined to try and fill The huge hole left in moms heart from losing Levi! Mom says he looks like me(course he does!) and mom thinks we may be related! (Duh!)There is a pic of him on my page,5th row,1st pic! Mom is calling him Freddie(The Freeloader). She won't take him to a vet yet,as she is still working on his socialization! If he hangs around, then she will have him neutered and shots. Will keep you posted on his progress!~Purrs,your SnugglePuss,Samson

Today, we remember Jim Croce
Jim Croce (1/10/43 – 9/20/73)wrote the "Time in a Bottle" after his wife Ingrid told him she was pregnant with his son. He had finished recording the album just over a week before his death. The plane crashed about an hour after the end of the concert.
The posthumous release included hit: "I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song". He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1990.

The song's lyrics, dealing with immortality and the wish to have more time, came across as if he had had a premonition of his untimely death. Imagine having the power to pause or manage time.

********Time In A Bottle" by Jim Croce

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
'Til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you

[Chorus]
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you

A bouquet of flowers brightens the day!!
***"Plant a seed of friendship; reap a bouquet of happiness." - Lois Kaufman
***"Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty out-values all the utilities of the world." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
***"Happiness held is the seed; Happiness shared is the flower." - John Harrigan

Supplies:
4 White Carnations
2 Plastic Black Shank Buttons - if you can find an oval shape even better
1 Plastic Yellow Shank Button
1 Sheet of White Craft Foam
Black Card Stock
Fabric Glue
Straight Pins
Tape
Green Floral Tape
Floral Wire
Red Ribbon

Place button wires into the flowers to create the face (make sure they're secure). You might need to trim the wire a little so your buttons sit flat on top of the flowers. I also recommend looking at a Hello Kitty image to get the nose and eye spacing correct.

Tie a traditional red bow and trim off tales. Attach a floral wire to bow. Cut two rounded triangles from the white foam for ears. You'll want the ears to be slightly bigger opposed to proportionate. Glue one of the ears on the back of the bow. Tape the other ear to the floral wire. The wire should be 6" in length.

Situate ears at the top of the bouquet. You will need to bend the ears back about 90 degrees. The flowers should cover part of the foam ears (this is why we made them larger). With floral tape, wrap wire and stems to secure in place.

Last are the whiskers. Cut 6 thin strips of black card stock measuring 2" in length. Pin three strips to each side of the face inside the flowers using straight pins. You now have a Hello Kitty Bouquet. For more color surround it with other flowers or wrap it in cellophane and tissue paper.

"I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance."
~William Wordsworth, I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud, 1804

Mitchell's Gone with the Wind
Margaret Mitchell had a huge stack of paper that was gathering dust in her closet in Atlanta, Georgia. Harold Latham, an editor visiting from New York, caught wind of the epic novel, but Mitchell refused to give him the manuscript. It wasn’t ready (and might never be).
The same week, an up-and-coming writer found out about the novel and exclaimed to Mitchell: “Really I wouldn’t take you for the type who would write a successful book. You know you don’t take life seriously enough to be a novelist.” Her dander up, Mitchell handed her unfinished manuscript to Latham. He had to buy an extra suitcase to carry it home, but it was worth the money. It wasn’t long before he made an offer for Gone with the Wind.

Cat "arrested" for break-in Brazilian prison
There are paw-prints all over the scene of the "crime" for its part in an apparent jail break attempt. This feline's life of crime is now over.

The incident took place at New Year. A smuggling cat has been detained in the grounds of a jail in Brazil with contraband goods for prisoners strapped to its body with tape. They found a mobile phone, charger, headphones and tools. Officials said the items could be used to effect a means of escape or for communicating with criminals on the outside.

The white cat was apprehended crossing the main prison gate. The incident took place at a jail in Arapiraca city, 250km (155 miles) south-west of Recife in Alagoas state.

The cat had apparently been trained to assist in high-profile prison breaks, and had been seen coming in and out of the jail multiple times prior to its arrest.
The jail holds some 263 prisoners.

There are no leads in the case. All of the prisoners are suspects in the case, but it’ll be hard to get any forward-momentum in the investigation. A prison spokesperson stated: "It's tough to find out who's responsible for the action as the cat doesn't speak."

Hi Nappers,
Thought I would start the New Year off with some 'little know' facts about the Peach State Cats! I hope you enjoy and I will start with myself...OH,Samson said to give you this red rose and note...however,I lost the note,so will have him call you later,ok?

BART~nicknamed Booger Boy-REASON: I got sick and nearly died shortly after mom adopted me. My little eyes stayed crusted shut with what mom called 'eye boogers',and she would bathe them open every morning while talking softly to me,calling me her Booger Boy....the name stuck,just like the eye crud!

SMUDGE~Will meow his fool head off for mom and dad to pet him,then keep j-u-s-t out of reach so they can't,leading then around the yard!

GROWLIE~Won't let anyone but mom pet him!

SAMSON~ADORES being petted! He had rather mom pet him than eat,and will even 'grab' moms hand if she pulls it away!

CHARLIE~ His shelter name was ARMANI,but even though it suited his good-looking tux,mom changed it because dad would never have remembered it!

DIXON~Has a very high-pitched meow! No one takes him serious when he tries to be aggressive! I mean,there he is,in his 'aggressive Tom' stance...back bowed,head down,legs stiff......then out comes this sound like air slowly released out of a balloon!!MOL! Dixon could make another kitty laugh to death!

Well,that's all for today,as there are so many of us! I will finish the rest of my sibs later in the week! Hope you have a very happy New Year! ~Purrs,Bart

A time for new beginnings - 6 days until 2013
***Tick Tock by Joanna Fuchs
I’m writing this in a state of shock,
Watching the clock—tick tock, tick tock,
Advancing, approaching, relentlessly,
A brand new year; Oh, can it be?

The calendar says the same thing, too;
Time races, vanishes for me; Boo hoo!
No, wait! If time flies, I’m having fun!
A year of fun! It’s gone! It’s done!

I now embrace the blur of time,
Because it simply means that I’m
Too busy with MY KITTY, joy, delight
To mourn the passing days’ swift flight.

So I’m wishing you fast, happy days,
Pleasuring you in myriad ways,
Filled with happiness and cheer,
Oh Happy, Happy Bright New Year!
*~~~~~* *~~~~~~~~~~* *~~~~~* *~~~~~~~~~~*
***People & FELINES Like You by Joanna Fuchs
A brand new year!
A clean slate on which to write
our hopes and dreams.
This year:
Less time and energy on things;
More time and energy on people.
All of life’s best rewards,
deepest and finest feelings,
greatest satisfactions,
come from people--
people AND FELINES like you.
Happy New Year!

It's a wonderful life
Philip Van Doren Stern (1900-1984) began a short story, The Greatest Gift", in 1939. He was inspired by a dream, and reminiscent of the 1843 Charles Dickens' Christmas Carol. Stern shared 200 printed copies in 1943 with friends as a year-end cards after numerous publisher rejections.
Luckily, the pamphlet came to the attention of a RKO movie producer who purchased the rights. Frank Capra's production company saw the movie potential. He paid $10,000 for the rights in 1945. Stern's story was adapted into the most loved and memorable American family film, "It's a Wonderful Life" in 1946. Director Capra's inventiveness, humor and affection for human beings keep it glowing with life and excitement.
On Xmas eve, George Bailey's guardian angel shows him all the lives he touched and how different life in his community would be had he never been born. Although George repeatedly sacrifices his dream to travel the world, he realizes "No man is a failure who has friends."
My dear friends at CatChannel, each one of you is precious, charming and kind. We make every attempt to make all members feel welcomed. You have the generous spirit of George Bailey in your hearts. You make our community a wonderful place. Thank you for being our friends.

ConCATulations to Angel SUGAR #62813 for Jan COTM
Angel Sugar's campaign --Random Acts of Kindness - is a breath of fresh air and a merry maker. Thirty-one days of positive energy into the universe will manifest positive events throughout the CatChannel community and goodwill toward all. Good cheer reigns in the spirit of sweet friendship.

"We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over; so in a series of kindness there is at last one which makes the heart run over." - Dr Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Kind hearts are the gardens,
Kind thoughts are the roots,
Kind words are the blossoms,
Kind deeds are the fruits.~19th century rhyme

"A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship."- Saint Basil (329-379)

Universal language: math
Cat Math by Ruth Berman

Addition:
How many strokes
Of cheek against chair
Does it take to prove
Territorial rights?

Geometry:
is any amount of bare space
Shining at the bottom of the food bowl
Acceptable?

And how do you prove the negative
To humans?

Calculus:
Jump too close
And the parabola will be still ascending
Feet below the surface
Where their tangent
Should be level
Landing without lift or fall.

Jump too far
And the parabola will be descending
Feet below the surface.

Feet shouldn't scrabble for purchase.
Cat math depends on dignity.
The derivative should be zero
Eyed before the leap
Into quadratics

...about how cool a cat can be
Meow Words By Cheryl Wheeler

Straightenin' out your back legs, stretching in my arms
Yawning, blinking, curling back around
Your dismissive glances slap me back somehow
Meow, meow, meow

Sleepin' on the big bed, the sultan slips the scene
Chasing something running in your dream
I am so enchanted, with your twitch and growl
Meow, meow, meow
I see you in Memphis on the Nile in the spring
Swinging through some palace doing your Egyptian king thing
You perceive my function, 24 a day
Is to do, for you, anything you say
Where'd you get that notion? How come I kowtow?
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow
Yeah buddy, meow, meow, meow

New for me - first time hearing this oldie
"...And The Mouse Police Never Sleeps" by Jethro Tull

Muscled, black with steel-green eye
swishing through the rye grass
with thoughts of mouse-and-apple pie.
Tail balancing at half-mast.

...And the mouse police never sleeps ---
lying in the cherry tree.
Savage bed foot-warmer
Of purest feline ancestry.

Look out, little furry folk!
He's the all-night working cat.
Eats but one in every ten ---
leaves the others on the mat.

...And the mouse police never sleeps ---
waiting by the cellar door.
Window-box town crier;
birth and death registrar.

With claws that rake a furrow red ---
licensed to mutilate.
From warm milk on a lazy day
to dawn patrol on hungry hate.

...No, the mouse police never sleeps ---
climbing on the ivy.
Windy roof-top weathercock.
Warm-blooded night on a cold tile.

See the video and sing along to these lyrics
The lead video of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is riveting. The song, released in 1970, remains current.

"Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying:
Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing.

Enjoy your Thanksgiving with friends & family!!
The New-England Boy's Song by Lydia Maria Child

OVER the river, and through the wood,
To grandfather's house we go;
The horse knows the way,
To carry the sleigh,
Through the white and drifted snow.

Over the river, and through the wood,
To grandfather's house away!
We would not stop
For doll or top,
For 't is Thanksgiving Day.

Over the river, and through the wood,
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes,
And bites the nose,
As over the ground we go.

Over the river, and through the wood,
With a clear blue winter sky,
The dogs do bark,
And children hark,
As we go jingling by.

Over the river, and through the wood,
To have a first-rate play--
Hear the bells ring
Ting a ling ding,
Hurra for Thanksgiving Day!

Over the river, and through the wood--
No matter for winds that blow;
Or if we get
The sleigh upset,
Into a bank of snow.

Over the river, and through the wood,
To see little John and Ann;
We will kiss them all,
And play snow-ball,
And stay as long as we can.

Over the river, and through the wood,
Trot fast, my dapple grey!
Spring over the ground,
Like a hunting hound,
For 't is Thanksgiving Day!

Over the river, and through the wood,
And straight through the barn-yard gate;
We seem to go
Extremely slow,
It is so hard to wait.

Over the river, and through the wood--
Old Jowler hears our bells;
He shakes his pow,
With a loud bow wow,
And thus the news he tells.

Over the river, and through the wood--
When grandmother sees us come,
She will say, Oh dear,
The children are here,
Bring a pie for every one.

Over the river, and through the wood--
Now grandmother's cap I spy!
Hurra for the fun!
Is the pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie!

Farewell to falling leaves
The Fall Almost Nobody Sees by David Budbill

Everybody's gone away.
They think there's nothing left to see.
The garish colors' flashy show is over.
Now those of us who stay
hunker down in sweet silence,
blessed emptiness among

red-orange shadblow
purple-red blueberry
copper-brown beech
gold tamarack, a few
remaining pale yellow
popple leaves,
sedge and fern in shades
from beige to darkening red
to brown to almost black,
and all this in front of, below,
among blue-green spruce and fir
and white pine,

all of it under gray skies,
chill air, all of us waiting
in the somber dank and rain,
waiting here in quiet, chill
November,
waiting for the snow.

Hello Nappers
It’s creepy and it’s kooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
It’s altogether ooky,
Our Halloween food bowl-y.

Our house is a museum.
When people come to see 'em
We really are a screa-um.
The Lee Fam-i-ly.

So get a witch's shawl on.
A broomstick you can crawl on.
Why don’t you pay a call on
The Lee Fam-i-ly.

(♪ Sing to The Addams Family theme song♫)

You can see our Halloween food bowl in our profile pics & on the bottom of my page.

With Spooky Kisses,
Sissy

~Rainbow Scoop for October 5, 2012~
*Vote ANGEL NALA #144744 ACOTD *

From the cloud of the NICE Angels…Beautiful Nala #144744 was the first cat to ever grace the home of the ARL Alumni but it would never have happened without the begging of young son Erik & the presence of a cat at his babysitter’s house. Nala #144744 made such an impression on mom that soon the house was filled with purrs of love from other furry furbabies & their lives without felines became a distant memory. As many of you know Nala #144744 became an angel at 12:34pm on August 29th, 2012 but some of you may not know that her beloved master Erik was away at Marine boot camp when it happened. When he called mom to tell her the good news about completing it & heading home, he naturally asked about his special cat. Mom shared the heartbreaking news with him but he doesn’t know that she’d asked us earlier to do something special for him by doing an ACOTD campaign for his beloved kitty when he got here. We’re asking everyone to please run, pounce or fly to paw a vote to ANGEL NALA #144744 on Friday October 5th. It will not only honor her memory but will also honor the service to our country of Erik, one of our newest Marines!



Congratulations to KING LEO #188022, our Cat of the Month for October! Your campaign was one that let us understand other breeds of cats that share our community & we hope you made some beautiful memories to put in your royal scrapbook for all your visitors to see.

Please vote daily in October for our COTM candidate, LILY #166596 & read the fact, fiction, superstition & folklore surrounding cats in our world as this beautiful black kitty works her paws to the bone writing & delivering blogs on her quest for the November crown. Please let us know if we are missing any crossing dates. We never want to leave out any one of our precious Angels.

OCTOBER CROSSINGS:

Cocoa Puff #4765 - 10/1/2010
Angel #40145 - 10/2/2009

PLEASE VOTE PHILIPPE & MEI LI #237749 OCTOBER 1st
Philippe & Mei Li were being cared for at the local animal shelter, and every day they waited in anticipation for their furever family to come along! As it turns out, they were both adopted in 2011, but in different months. Philippe was 4.5 years old when he went home in March with his new loving family, and Mei Li was 1 year old when she was adopted in July! These precious kitties both share the same CC page #237749, but have their own very special purrsonalities! Philippe is a very mellow laid back kitty! And Mei Li is very playful and loves to be petted! They both enjoy sitting by the window and watching the birdies outside, as you can see by the cute photo in their gallery! Their adoptive pawrents are long time beloved members of our CC family, and their fursib, King Angel Henry was COTM in September of 2011. We hope you will stop by and leave a vote for Philippe & Mei Li #237749 so they can be awarded their very own shiny COTD badge!

We offer heartfelt thanks of appreciation to King Sammy #163474 for a magnificent reign as our September King! We congratulate King Leo #188022, our new King of October and invite you to visit him at the castle! And we offer our support to our new COTM candidate, LILY #166596, and hope you will leave a vote everyday in October and help LILY #166596 to be our COTM for November!

Thank you for your continued support of the CMR Special Recognition Campaigns and our outstanding candidates! These campaigns are chosen for families who are trying to help other CC members by visiting and voting. In appreciation, we are leaving you a basket of pumpkin muffins sprinkled with catnip crunch! This is Charlotte with Mouse #219407 & Tucker for the CMR page #46883.

Alice Walker's The Color Purple turns 30
1982, the novel - 1985, the movie - 2005, the musical

Poem by Alice Walker
...“Expect nothing. Live frugally
On surprise.
become a stranger
To need of pity
Or, if compassion be freely
Given out
Take only enough
Stop short of urge to plead
Then purge away the need.

...Wish for nothing larger
Than your own small heart
Or greater than a star;
Tame wild disappointment
With caress unmoved and cold
Make of it a parka
For your soul.

...Discover the reason why
So tiny human midget
Exists at all
So scared unwise
But expect nothing. Live frugally
On surprise.”
