Hi Mr. Sampson Please vote Rosie #252822 for COTD on Monday, 5/20 Recently a cat loving family had their red female cat, Angel Rhuby cross over the Rainbow Bridge. The cat mom of this family decided she would like to adopt another red female and as luck would have it, there was Rosie at the Petsmart Adoption Center. Rosie #252822 and her new mom bonded instantly and Rosie came to her new home that day. Rosie was at the shelter for over two months and was a bit wild. She didn't like being kept in a cage and would fight with the shelter workers when they tried to put her back in her cage. This was a big reason why Rosie #252822 wasn't adopted sooner; she was scared and the people looking at her were not patient with her until her new mom came along. Now at her new home Rosie #252822 is a cuddle cat with her daddy and loves to play with her brother Yogi. She gets along with the rest of her furry siblings and is a happy cat. Rosie #252822 will not eat dry food but she will eat any kind of wet food. She doesn't like dry treats either! Rosie loves to play with her furry mouse and the laser light. Rosie #252822 is happily spoiled now in her new home and we are very happy she has found a wonderful loving home. Rosie would be so honored to have a COTD badge to display on her page. Please visit Rosie #252822 on Monday, 5/20, and leave a vote for her so she can proudly have her own shiny COTD badge. While making the rounds of visits on the CC, please go visit our May catpaigner for COTM, Whiskers #227256, and give his votey button a good whack so he can add your vote to his collection to become our King of June.. Also, please visit our Queen of May, Queen Spunky #161265, and letting her know we are all thinking of her and her family.Come visit me, Angel Oscar - I love Angel Cloudy, Finster - I am engaged to Destiny 62594, Nosey -- I Love Orzo & Biscuit is my guy, Sweet Jake - Loving Memory- I will always love you, Angel Lucky - I love Angel Shadow, Angel Rhuby-I love Sir Leo- Welcome Angel Sparky, Q Linguini-I love A.

This sweet kitty joined the angels in February 2013 after losing his battle with complications that developed after being hit by a car the month before. He’d survived having both legs broken & surgery, but was unable to walk & had to drag himself to the litterbox. He was very brave & stayed a very sweet boy during all of the pain, infections, examinations & becoming a foster; but the angels knew that his life would not be a full one with his disabilities & thus called him home. Please pounce by to paw ANGEL CRASH #248838 a vote today so that his foster mom will have a fond memory to cherish & so that this sweet angel can earn the honor of making his star the most brilliant in the night sky tomorrow night.

Good luck on your quest for the next crown! ======================================== *Please let the BAC CENTRAL #73341 know if there are any missing crossing dates so we can get them posted in our next edition since we don’t want to overlook any of our precious angel friends!

Hello Mr. Sampson What’s mew with you? I have WONDERFUL mews!!!! Dr. William called - my T4 by equilibrium dialysis thyroid test was NEGATIVE!!!! Thankfully that means I do not have hyperthyroidism. I have decided that I really do not like to eat the Prescription Diet k/d canned food. I will eat the k/d dry but not the canned food. So Mommy has been busy researching other canned foods with low protein (less than 10%) for me. The crazy woman is also studying our food labels. Do I read the labels on all that junk SHE eats??? Tonight is my last dose of that nasty Clavamox for the UTI. After I have been off it for four days, Mommy will take my urine sample to Dr. William to be rechecked. Hopefully the UTI will be all gone. Mommy & Nana have a meeting scheduled with Dr. William @ 9 a.m. this Caturday as they have a growing list of questions & concerns. Poor Doc! You would think they love me or something!!! Have a lovely day. Hugs, Q MerryBelleCome visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2007 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2007.

My Dear Fur Friend ♥ Sampson... Mom and I hope from the bottom of our hearts your Mommy had a wonderful Mother´s Day! Here in Argentina we celebrate Mother´s Day in October. It´s raining outside but it´s not very cold. I´m watching through the window while Mom writes my kitty letters. The cars pass by with their lights over the avenue and people walks with their umbrellas. We tried to blog yesterday but CC was super slow. Dad gave my Mom a new BlackBerry cell phone a couple of days ago and she´s been chasing us with its camera! She loves taking pictures of us. MOL! Mom tells not to close my eyes when she´s about to take a photo of me. Tee-hee! Last night she caught me yawning in my kitty bed; I meowed at her to let her know a lady must be ready for a photo! We´re waiting for Grandma to come back from work and have supper together. We´ll be helping Mom to cook in a little while. Here is a huge kiss for you and your Mommy... Sending you tons of whisker kisses and hugs, with much love, from your friends always, Lola & all the kitties from Buenos Aires!!Come visit me, Mrs.Pucca & Simba, Memories From A Queen, Angels Blackie & Lucy, Sally ♥ Felix, Lola ♥ Mickey-VOTE WHISKERS #227256 COTM! & Willow & Charlie-THANKS A LOT FRIENDS!.

Hello Mr. Sampson Thank you for your kind words, prayers & sweet thoughts. Like many of you, Mommy knows all too well about kidney disease. Her Dot passed away at the age of 17 from kidney disease & hyperthyroidism in October 2000. Mommy had hoped it would be a very long time before she was faced with this awful disease again. She will do her very best to give me the greatest care possible & lots of TLC. I am eating the k/d canned and dry foods pretty well so far. Mommy says it is extremely difficult having one baby on a special diet. But we are doing our best with this situation & taking it one day at a time. Thanks again for your prayers & concern. We really do appreciate it. Job 12:10 says “In God’s hands is the life of every creature.” We believe this to be true. Love, Q MerryBelle & Mommy AngelaCome visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2007 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2007.

Hello Mr. Sampson How are you? Yesterday I visited Dr. William for my annual checkup, blood work (CBC, 6-panel, T3 & T4), shots and 3-month Schirmer eye test. First the good news – my eyes are doing well. Mommy’s intuition told her something was going on with me, so now the not-so-good mews. I am in the very early stages of kidney disease: My BUN level = 38 (normal is 16-36) My Creatinine = 2.6 (normal is .8-2.4) Dr. William says we caught this early. For now, we are going to treat it by changing my diet to Prescription Diet k/d. So far, I am eating both the k/d canned and the k/d dry food. We will recheck my levels in 3 months. I also have a UTI, so I am taking Clavamox, the wonder drug. My thyroid level (T4) is in the “grey area” so Dr. William sent some of my blood to Texas A&M so they can run a test called T4 by Equilibrium Dialysis. We should receive those results next week. As you can imagine, Mommy is very upset, stressed, & worried about me. Please keep us in your prayers. Hugs, Q MerryBelleCome visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2007 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2007.

Friday purrs from the NICE Crew Happy Friday everycat! It's a very cool, wet day around here & mom's sinuses are causing her head to hurt so I've got to make this short & sweet so we can convince her she needs to take a nap with us. I was whacking at Fluffernut earlier today because she keept trying to take away the toy I dragged out of the basket to play with. Trixie saw the commotion & got her attention so that she'd race with her for a while before I did her bodily harm that would have her hiding under the bed the rest of the day...MOL! Zaboo gave all of us 'the look' a few minutes ago so we're now snuggled on our favorite blankets with dreamland right around the corner. YAWN...cloudy day + orneriness= 4 very sleepy kitties...MOL! Well got to go because my eyes are getting very heavy & Zaboo is giving mom a hint that naptime is here by trying to lay on her laptop as she types. Just a reminder that we won't be doing anything but daily voting until Monday. Have a pawsome weekend & a super Happy Mother's Day! Sleepy hugs & a chicken filled vote, Patches & NICE Crew *********************************Come visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

My Dear Fur Friend ♥ Sampson... We had a windy and quite cold day in Buenos Aires and I have been trying to stay over Mom´s lap as much as possible. Momma says I´m very chilly and that´s true, I have to say. I don´t like when the floor is cold and I complain about it all the time. Mom puts me over my blanket or over her bed but I purr when I jump over her lap. She says autumn always has a couple of cold days and lots of rains. MOL! Momma went to the Pets Shop after work and bought our dry food, she also brought Sally and me some chicken and cheese treats. She told us we can´t have them all at once, but I´ve seen where she keeps them: they are in a pink box over one of the kitchen counters. Sally and me went on a special mission to sniff it and it is well locked. I wonder if there´s any way to open it without Mommy´s help... Tee-hee! I will have to think about it. I hope you have a super purrfect Monday and a wonderful week. I send you tons of sandpaper kisses and warm hugs. With lots of love, from your friends always, Q.Lola & all the kitties from Buenos Aires!!Come visit me, Mrs.Pucca & Simba, Memories From A Queen, Angels Blackie & Lucy, Sally ♥ Felix, Lola ♥ Mickey-VOTE WHISKERS #227256 COTM! & Willow & Charlie-THANKS A LOT FRIENDS!.

TGIF meows from the NICE Crew Hi Mr. Sampson, Q Trixie meowed a sleepy thank you for the sweet note you left on her page on April 30th about her reign as CC queen last month! She's enjoying her time away from blogging but her cyclonic winds will blow again in a couple of months. Woohoo...Friday has finally arrived. Why am I so excited? Simple because Dad & the kids are home on the weekends so that means more Patchy attention time...MOL! I'm famous, or perhaps infamous, for jumping up on any available lap & kneading as hard as I can. I love showing them how much I love them...even if they do get a few minor puncture wounds...MOL! Today is another sunny but warm day with some light winds blowing into the windows which mom opened up earlier. Outside girl Sassee is being very grumpy about anyone sitting in the master bedroom window & keeps climbing up to try smacking us. Mom has scolded her several times so hopefully she'll soon realize that we're not going to come out into her 'kingdom' & try to cause problems. Mom says it's the feral in her coming out again. Hmmm...let me whack at her mom. I hate that she hissed at me anyway so let me teach her a paw lesson she won't soon forget because I'm quite a bit bigger than she is. Darn...mom said no so I guess I'll have to be content hissing at her through the screen...SIGH! Q Trixie is getting ticked off at her & has been chasing Fluffers around the house to work off her frustrations. The thing is that Fluffers is loving it...MOL! Zaboo is laying in the target window right now as if he's daring her to come back because he's even upset with her...& that takes quite a bit because he's so laid-back. Luckily Joseph ran interference & convinced Sassee to get away from the window but even he can't control her sassy catitude. Mom definitely named her right...MOL! Well I've got to get pouncing because mom is trying to catch up some laundry & still needs to clean up all the dog fur in the family room where Sammie is shedding. We're back into our 'normal' routine now so will be doing daily voting ONLY on Saturday & Sunday. Have a pawsome weekend & I'll meow at you again next week. Purrs, Patches & NICE Crew ****************************************Come visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

A Word With Whiskers – May 02 Whisker’s Furever Home – by Mom Mandy ^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^^~^~^~^~^ I had always been a dog person, having had 2 big boys, an Airedale-Terrier mix and the other a Pointer. Both were rescue dogs and they were the loves of my life for 12 years. When they crossed the Rainbow Bridge within one year of each other, I thought my world had ended. I would come home from work and sit in the backyard staring at the empty doghouse. With 2 big dogs, a cat in our yard was a rare sighting. One evening I noticed a black & white tuxedo cat staring at me from afar. When I tried to approach her she would hiss and run away. I started leaving food out for her and the next day the bowl was always empty. My spiral into depression continued. I missed my dogs so much. My husband decided to take me away on a trip to Hawaii. Two weeks later a surprise awaited us on our return home. Our empty doghouse had been used by the black & white tuxedo cat to give birth to her 5 feral kittens. I didn't know what a feral cat was, but I learned quickly. We left food for the cats and tried to catch a glimpse whenever possible, but the mother was guarded and we respected that. One morning when I was leaving food out I noticed the mother was gone. 5 small kittens were left crying and hissing as if calling out for their mother. I thought they were adorable, but my friends said beware of feral cats for fear of disease or physical attacks. I got on the internet, learned about Trap-Neuter-Release techniques, and set out on a mission to save these babies. It took several days, but I did manage to get all 5 of the kitties fixed. I released them back into our neighborhood, prayed and waited. They came back one by one, as I always put food out, morning and night. I had names for them all - Howlie, Patches, Whitey, Callie and Whiskers. One day I noticed Howlie was gone. I checked the local animal shelters, but Howlie never came back. Soon after Patches was gone too. I decided to put up a cat fence around my yard and try to trap the remaining 3 kitties in my yard. What an adventure that was! Callie came willingly.

Hello Mr. Sampson Tomorrow (Thursday) is officially ♥Brothers &Sisters Day♥ a day for siblings to celebrate one another. Our siblings have a huge impact on our lives (some for the good, some not-so-good). Siblings are truly a special blessing (did I really just say that?!) so be sure to appreciate and cherish your bothers & sisters. Another reason to celebrate is that not everyone is lucky enough to have siblings (like Mommy who is an only child). So don’t forget – tomorrow celebrate that special bond and let your siblings know just how special they are to you. To celebrate, I will show my love & appreciation to MerryBelle and Casper Todd simply by being my hissy, growly self! They would expect no different from me & I certainly would not want to disappoint them! ☺ With Celebratory Kisses, ❁Q Sissy❁Come visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2007 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2007.

Hi Mr Sampson Day 30 Thank you for stopping by and pushing my votey button. You are the best furriends ever. I can’t believe we are already at the end of the month. I hope you enjoyed my catpaign. Here are my furriends and their rankings. I saw Gromit get her giant rosette at the Del Mar show. I am currently ranked at 38 but I don’t go to many shows and I need to place in those shows. These kitties go to most of the shows and always place. They are use to being in the shows, some have been going for years. Go to cfaswhhp.org, Past HHP winners, 2011-2012 to see their pictures. They are so pretty. Some were found on the streets, some were rescued at local shelters or rescue groups. Gromit was found in a back yard She is the oldest kitty showing.

Thank you for allowing me to be your COTM candidate for April. It has been so much fun. You can find the rankings of all the kitties that have placed in a ring, how many rings and where they stand now. Just go to the CFA website in your area or just look at the CFA website in my area.

~Queen Trixie's final day in 'office'~ April 30th Hello & happy Tuesday every kitty! This is the last day that I’ll be meowing to you from the Queen’s chair so my big sis & head chef, Patches, has whipped up a banquet that will amaze your senses & tantalize your taste buds as my way of thanking all the sweet kitties that pounced by this month. At dawn tomorrow we’ll be vacating the cabin with our royal mementos & will say farewell to the beautiful wooded area that I've called my home for an entire month. All kitties that have visited are suggested to make sure everything they brought along has been reclaimed because once I pack away the royal gowns I’ll no longer be responsible for my actions & anything missing may never be seen by you again...MOL...but until then I must remain as dignified as possible & therefore I call my royal criers forth & hand them the final royal decree to announce: ♕ ♕ HEAR YE, HEAR YE ♕ ♕ ~*~All CC kitties are hereby cordially invited to attend the coronation of Queen Spunky #161265 on Wednesday May 1st, 2013~*~ ~*~ Time: 7am PT/10am ET on the CMR page #46883~*~ ~*~This gala event will be held at the HONEYWELL CENTER in Wabash, IN in the Honeywell Room (see pics in my gallery) & will be followed by a roller skating party at their skating rink, where music, skates & the use of the party room are all included. All food will be provided by Honeywell’s famous catering service so come hungry & loosen up those leg muscles for a day of roller skating fun as I say Bon Voyage to royal duties!!~*~ *Formal dress is optional for the coronation ceremony but I highly recommend a change of comfortable clothes for skating if you plan to stay for the party afterward.* //////////////////////////////////////////////////- /////////////////// After the pawty is over it’s just a short 14 miles to my home where I’ll unpack & settle back into civilian life with happy, cherished memories to dream about while I take a short break from the blogging scene. Not to worry though because one of my magnificent siblings will pounce into action…& I’m sure they’ll exaggerate my antics like they usually do…MOL! Thank you for being so supportive sweet kitties & I’ll see you bright & early tomorrow morning! Loving purrs, Queen Trixie *****************************Come visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

Hi Mr Sampson Day 29 Thank you for pushing my votey button. I am so lucky to have all of you visiting me every day. You are the best. “He loved books and when he found one open on the table he would lie down on it, turn over the edges of the leaves with his paw and after a while, fall asleep, for all the world as if he had been reading a fashionable novel. “ Theophile Gautier French novelist Colette was a firm cat-lover. When she was in the U.S. she saw a cat sitting in the street. She went over to talk to it and the two of them mewed at each other for a friendly minute. Colette turned to her companion and exclaimed, “Enfin! Quelqu’un qui parle francais.” (At last! Someone who speaks French!) Anon “Cats only assume their strangest, most intriguing and most beautiful postures when it is impossible to photograph them. Cat calendars always disappoint for they only show the public range of cat positions.” J.R. Coulson Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

♥From Lola´s Kitty Desk...♥ Good evening dearest Mr. Sampson & Mommy!! My Mom is definitely runing my social life. MOL! Yes, my mischievous Mommy is always telling me she has to do this, she has to do that... She needs to understand she is MY secretary and that I need her to write my kitty blogs!! I´m happy she´s home this evening. I just jumped over her lap to make sure she is really going to write my letters. (Tee-hee!). We had a nice weekend. Our parents visited a marriage of Peruvian friends as the lady was celebrating her birthday. Mom told us they had a great time and she kept on talking about all the yummy food in the pawty. Too bad we didn´t get any of it. The weather was lovely and sunny although it rained on Saturday night. After the rain we noticed about some little bugs in our food dishes. Mommy said they were ants and that they come with the humid weather. Sally and me saw them and started to meow load to alert Mom. We wanted them away from OUR food. Momma was not happy about them either. She changed our food and moved our dishes to another place. Then she washed the floor with a nasty fluid and told us they were gone for good. Mom and Dad are looking forward to Wednesday when they will be off work since we´re celebrating Labor´s Day. I hope you all have a super purrfect Monday. I send you a huge bunch of kitty kisses and hugs... With much love, from your friends always, Lola & all the kitties from Buenos Aires!!Come visit me, Mrs.Pucca & Simba, Memories From A Queen, Angels Blackie & Lucy, Sally ♥ Felix, Lola ♥ Mickey-VOTE WHISKERS #227256 COTM! & Willow & Charlie-THANKS A LOT FRIENDS!.

HAPPY MONDAY Well, this month has been a really nasty month. The weather especially. Mom has written down on her calendar, and counting today has been only 9 days out of this whole month that it has been NICE and WARM!! Other than that it has been unseasonably cool if not down right COLD and RAINY RAINY and MORE RAIN!! I dont know when or if it will STOP!! They can not say we are in drought conditions now and if any thing we are ABOVE the deficit. I can believe that. Well, Mommie got a bad letter the other day. She was expecting that to be said. But she is not discouraged or any thing and said KARMA will come back around to those bad people. Mommie said she knows her own self better than any body. So she is going to devote all of her time to ME and the rest of her family here. Well, my human sister is getting her big giant pool ready for the summer but I wont get to see it or any thing except in the pictures Mommie takes. They got it from a pool factory nearby and it is 30 foot around and 4 and half feet deep. It will come to Mommie's chin. Mommie said if she could not learn to swim in that pool she might as well forget it. No she has never learned to swim. Too afraid of the water. Must have lived a previous life and went down with the Titanic or something. LOL!! But they are putting a great big old deck around it and gates that will be locked to keep the kids and every one else around out of it. The only way any one CAN get to it is to either come directly up on the front porch and any body can see or hear them, or through the main house. Guess what I did the other day too?? I did a bad thing by darting out of the house via way of the open front door. Mommie was giving Richie Da Dawg some treats for being a good doggie and when she opened the door to come back in, I just HAD to make a dart for the yard. But she and Poppie never run me or chase after me or any thing. They just let me explore and stay right with me until I give in to let one or the other catch me. Mommie tried to grab my collar but it broke away because it is one of those safety collars. Mommie laughed and said..."Well, at least I know it WORKS now!!" I chased after a lovely butterfly and ran up on the bank. Mommie yelled at me but I stopped. I dont know if I would be territorial or not but Mommie and Poppie doesnt want to take that chance. They say I wouldnt be like the other cats before me and stay around the yard. Would be nice to see what lies on out there but I will try to be nice when I escape and try to just stay close by. Well, enough for the time being. All of you take care now. Love---KiWi KaTT (The KEESTER)Come visit me, KiWi KaTT (The KEESTER).

Thanks Mr. Sampson Thank you for pawing by with such sweet ♫ Happy Adoptiversary ♪ wishes for me. It’s hard to believe that it’s been ❼ years already since Mommy brought me home. I was just six weeks old then. Mommy & Nana had been feeding my Momcat Phoebe while she was preggers at an abandoned house. You can see a pic of my catmom Phoebe & my siblings Kirby, Riley & Oreo at the bottom of my page. Because I looked so much like my momcat with her pretty blue eyes, Mommy originally thought that I was a girl & she named me Chloe Blue. Silly Mommy! Mommy found my cat mom & 3 siblings wonderful, furrever homes, too. Mommy didn’t know what MerryBelle and Sissy would think about getting a little brother. Well, MerryBelle liked me & “mothered” me, but Sissy STILL hisses and growls at just the sight of me, even 7 years later. She is just jealous because she is no longer the baby! Psalm 127:3 says “Children are a gift from the LORD; they are a reward from him.” Mommy believes this, especially since we are her only children. ❤Thanks again for sharing my special day with me.❤ Purrs to you, K Casper ToddCome visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2007 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2007.

Vote COTD 4/29 COLT, WINCHESTER & KIMBER #251320 This week’s special recognition candidates were found on the side of a road near a wooded area when they were barely old enough to fend for themselves. Their guardian angel was working hard that day & led their new mom to the right spot where she picked up the three mewing furballs & took them home. These precious sibs have stolen the hearts of many CC members by mom’s picture postings on FB & it’s pawsome being able to watch them grow up here in our loving community. Colt and Winchester love to talk to calm Kimber down because she’s very shy, unlike her more outgoing sibs. They love to play with their mouse toys & frequently pick on their bigger sibs throughout the day to see how much they can get away with. You can often find this rambunctious trio of young felines looking out of the window talking to birds, or playing with their light up ball. They’re snugglers too! They’re often found in the lap of mom or grandpa or you can see them snuggling happily together in their kitty bed. The inseparable trio of COLT,WINCHESTER & KIMBER#251320, are also keeping the house hopping with their energy level so let’s help them bounce off the walls a little more by pouncing by to paw them a COTD vote today, Monday April 29th, so they can earn their very first badge of honor tomorrow! Only two days left for SPUNKY #161265 out on the COTM catpaign trail so please pounce by to paw your votes of support to this beautiful show girl so she can twist through the community next month wearing the crown of May as our Emerald Queen! While you’re pouncing around please remember to leap through the northern Indiana woods to visit our current COTM Queen Trixie #172636 aka the Calico Cyclone, & thank her for the animal tales she spun for us before she turns over the royal reins to future Queen Spunky aka the White Tornado. This is Zaboo/NICE Crew, Sabrina, Duchess & family leaving you a triple berry muffin as our way of thanking you for your support of our fine candidates. Have a pawsome week everyone!Come visit me, ~*~Sabrina ~*~.

Hi Mr Sampson Day 28 Thank you for coming by and pushing my votey button . You are the very best furriends a kitty could ask for. “Most cats, when they are Out want to be In, and vice versa, and often simultaneously.” Dr Louis J Camuti “Any cat who misses a mouse pretends it was aiming for the dead leaf.” Charlotte Gray. “If your cat falls out of a tree, go indoors to laugh.” Patricia Hitchcock. “They come to sit on the table by the writer, keeping his thoughts company, and gazing at him with intelligent tenderness and magical penetration. It seems as though cats divine the thought that is passing from the brain to the pen, and that as they stretch out a paw, they are trying to seize it on its way.” Theophile Gaautier in his memoirs of Beaudelaire Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

~Queen Trixie's Final weekend bash~Sun April 28th Good Morning loyal kitty subjects! Teehee…I’ve wanted to meow that all month but didn’t want to offend anyone so waited until my time was nearly over…MOL! I hope all of you slept well at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge because today we’re going to be visiting DISNEY’S MAGIC KINGDOM to wrap up our final road trip (pics in my gallery). I’ve got a pair of Mickey ears for everyone to wear today & am really excited to be here with all of you & can’t wait to see the newest attractions in the newly expanded Fantasyland !! The expansion presents more Disney characters and stories—in rich detail—in 2 new themed areas. The first new area is The Enchanted Forest, where we can venture through lush landscapes, discovering roaring waterfalls and royal castles. Enchanted Forest attractions and experiences include: Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid ~ Enter Prince Eric's castle, board a giant clamshell and rock out on this new musical attraction. Be Our Guest Restaurant-Feast in one of 3 incredible dining rooms in the middle of Beast's Castle. Enchanted Tales with Belle-Become part of a lively retelling of the "tale as old as time," hosted by Belle and Lumière. Ariel's Grotto -Take photos and get autographs with everyone's favorite undersea princess. Gaston’s Tavern-The manliest of manly places, this eatery serves up tasty tavern fare. From whimsical encounters with princesses to delectable dining experiences, there’s something to delight every age and interest in Enchanted Forest. The other new area is Storybook Circus, where we’ll step into the classic American circus that evokes the spirit of the classic Disney film Dumbo. Storybook Circus transports Guests to another era—a period in time when the colorful big-top tents attracted audiences from far and wide with astonishing stunts, majestic animals and spectacular entertainment. Attractions include: The Barnstormer -Take to the sky with The Great Goofini on a spiraling stunt plane adventure high above the Storybook Circus grounds. Dumbo The Flying Elephant-Soar high above Storybook Circus with Dumbo on a ride that puts a new twist on an old favorite—and offers twice the fun! Casey Jr. Splash 'N' Soak Station-Enjoy cooling refreshment at this circus-themed water play area adjacent to the Fantasyland Train Station. Pete’s Silly Sideshow- Meet some popular Disney Characters inside one of the big-top tents in the Storybook Circus Area. Fantasyland Station-Delight in the newest addition to Walt Disney World Railroad! With multicolored circus tents, lively characters and other nods to Dumbo—Storybook Circus is designed to make you feel like you're a part of the cherished film that many of us grew up with. Time’s a wasting sweet kitties & the last one there has to be my purrsonal aide for the entire day…& you know how demanding I can be…MOL! Magic abounds so let’s get pouncing! Happy purrs, Queen Trixie ****************************Come visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

Hi Mr Sampson Day 27 Thank you for coming by and pushing my votey button. I am so lucky you to have so many new furriends and old furriends. We are getting closer to the end of the month. I must admit, I’m getting a little nervous. So have any of you decided to try a cat show? Did it sound appealing to you? I must admit it is fun but sometimes the shows are just to loud for me. “Everything a cat is and does physically is to me beautiful, lovely, stimulating, soothing, attractive and an enchantment.” Paul Gallico from “An Honourable cat “I think one reason we admire cats, those of us who do, is their proficiency in one-upmanship. They always seem to come out on top, no matter what they are doing-or pretend to do. Rarely do you see a cat discomfited. They have no conscience, and they never regret. Maybe we secretly envy them.” Barbara Webster from “Creatures and Contentments” Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom time.

~Queen Trixie's Final Zoo Trip~ Sat. April 27th Happy Caturday Mr. Sampson & Angels! I’m sad to meow that this will be our last weekend outing to a zoo. I’ve enjoyed having all of you accompany me & would like to give each of you a musical water globe with a zoo animal inside as a memento of our time together. The melody is “Animal Crackers in my Soup” & you have your choice of Siberian Tigers, Giraffes, Elephants or Zebras. Today we’re heading south so make sure to grab your sunscreen & climb aboard the plane because we’re taking off to enjoy the warm weather of Florida at DISNEY’S ANIMAL KINGDOM! Here’s the link to check out the gallery before we arrive! (https://disneyworld.disney. go.com/destinations/animal-kingdom/) If you thought Walt Disney World Resort's Animal Kingdom Park was the largest animal-themed park in the world . . . you'd be right! Its 500 acres are filled with more than 1,700 animals! The park also reflects Walt Disney’s dedication to conservation and is committed to animal care, education and research. We’ll be exploring 7 enthralling lands: Oasis, Discovery Island, Camp Minnie-Mickey, Africa, Rafiki's Planet Watch, Asia and Dinoland, U.S.A. With myriad rides for all ages, from the TriceraTop Spin, where kids can control the altitude of their flying herbivore, to Expedition Everest, a high-altitude adventure coaster that brings those who dare into the den of the snarling Yeti before sending them careening from the world's highest peak, this park's allure runs the spectrum from young to old with first-rate shows, wonderful rides and of course, some 1,700 beautiful and fascinating animals to encounter along the way. Not to be missed: the Kilimanjaro Safari, an outdoor ride in an open-sided vehicle (with a little trademark Disney drama thrown in for excitement) brings explorers face-to-face with antelope and elephant, cheetah, hippo, Zebra, wildebeest, rhino and more. We’ll be staying at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge (see pics in my gallery) so be prepared to step into the heart of Africa at the magnificent Resort hotel. Inspired by the traditional African kraal, the horseshoe-curved design provides spectacular views of 4 lush savannas that over 200 hoofed animals and birds call home. Delight in dazzling pool areas, exciting animal programs and one of the largest collections of African art in the United States as you experience your own African safari adventure with a touch of Disney magic. I’m patting myself on the back for this trip, although it took quite a bit of finagling for mom to arrange everything since we’re cats…MOL! It won’t be long until we touch down kitties so get ready for the most fun trip of the month as I wrap up my time as your queen. Thank you for your fantastic support! Excited chirps, Queen Trixie P.S.

Hi Mr Sampson Day 26 Thank you for all your votes. I am so excited. We are almost done with the month. I am one special little kitty. Today is my Sister Callie’s first year Crossing Anniversary. She was so special. I knew when mom first rescued me I had to get Callie’s approval. I knew she was the boss. MOL Now that we have talked about CFA Shows and TICA Shows I just don’t know what else to meow about. I am going to another CFA Show but we need to decide which ones. More traveling in the car. MOL In case I didn’t tell you, you can’t wear a collar at the show. Some rescues have a collar on and we let them know they need to take the collar off when they get put in the judges cage. At the CFA shows, we always cheer for all the kitties getting a rosette in the household pet category. We are the noisy bunch. MOL I think I will leave some Cat Quotations. We are smarter than humans but they just don’t know it. Hehe “The cat has been described as the most perfect animal, the acme of muscular perfection and the supreme example in the animal kingdom of the co-ordination of mind and muscle.” Roseanne Ambrose-Brown “Poets generally love cats-because poets have no delusions about their own superiority.” Marion Garretty Have a catriffic day and get lots of mom and dad time. Kitty kisses SpunkyCome visit me, Angel My Valentine is Eddie, Smokey Vote Whiskers 227256 COTM candidate for May, Angel Sassy Welcoming new Angels, Queen Spunky & Q.Angel Callie 4/2010 Proud of my Baby Sister.
