"The Boys" say,
Hello
Merry
Christmas One And All!
Although this photo
>>> is not a photo of one of "The
Boys", we
thought he pretty
much reflects how they might look on Christmas morning.
We hope you have a very Merry Christmas, and we are looking forward to
seeing you again on a regular basis.
* * * * * *
We're
back!
Long time "no see"! You probably noticed we haven't been here
for a very long while!
Unfortunately, there was a lot going on in our collective (Chuck, Karen
and "The Boys") "real life" (as they say), since about April, to be
exact. So some of the things I was doing had to take a back
seat.
Alas. One of those "back seaters" was our "Cat's
Meow"!
I'm sorry I've been missing for all these months, and I appreciate that
you've stayed with us. Thank
you for continuing to be one of our loyal subscribers, even
though we fizzled out on you with our plans this year for a weekly
ezine. You
may even have forgotten that you signed up
for "Cat's
Meow" in the first place. If so, I hope you
stick
around for the New Year and the resurrection of our weekly "Cat's
Meow"!
Although
we may change its name.
Also during this "away" time, we discovered that some of the
items in our Itty
Bitty Shoppe for Kitty store (and at Kittens 'n Things) somehow
disappeared. So we'll be
spending some time recreating that.
* * * * *

So, to begin, with this issue, I'm letting you know our #1 "New Year's
Resolution" regarding cats...that is, after the first of the year, the "Cat's
Meow" will
once again be delivered to you on a regular weekly publication
schedule.
So look for us in your e-box Saturday, January 8. I'm choosing January
8 to give you plenty of time to get rested up from all your Santa
doings.
In the meantime, if
you haven't
already, drop by Kittens
'n
Things, our blog. We re-started that a
couple of
months ago, and we're on the track now to keep it up and going
again.

all the new subscribers that have joined our weekly "reader's
circle." Feel free
to share "The Cat's
Meow" with
your "furrry" friends and their "beans!" Or at least give
them the link to

Things. They'll
thank you
for their very own copy.

Days of Our Meows
Boys Will Be Boys...
I'm
talking about all
four.
So,
here in this section each week, I'll give you the inside scoop on
something one or all of them did during the week.
Or, maybe I'll look in their "little book of horrors" and find
something
they did from their past.
Either way, I'll have some kitty antic here.
Taking
Care of Kitty
Kitty Health Tips and the Like
Although things are
not all mapped out yet, here we'll have some tips and other
suggestions, perhaps guest writers, etc., to give you some ides on
keeping your kitty healthy and safe.
If you'd like to add an article here for us or if you know of a tip you
use to keep your kitty healthy that might interest our kitty readers,
let me know.
 
What's New Pussy
Cat?
Got
A New Toy or Food?
"The
Boys," our "Cat
Seen Investigators"
(CSI), like nosing around the Internet for
really
cool toys
and
all kinds of things that might catch the eye of any discerning kitty.
This week, "The Boys" are taking a break from that because they're
waiting for
Santa.
But, they'll be all set with something new (or at least new to them),
in our first of the year issue.
If you your kitty has a new treat or play toy or something that he or
she wants to let us know about, we'll write about it here and share the
cat love.
"The
Boys" love to give the
 paws
up!
It's Your
Turn
We Want You
Since
"The
Boys" and
I have been "traveling around the
web," looking at all the really neat kitty blogs, we've decided we'd
like to feature other kitties in this section.
So, send us your kitty's story, his or her photo, and your website
link. We'll then send it all in this spot to our readers.
We're excited to hear from you.
Who Meow
Are
The
McGreeveys
I'm
Karen
McGreevey,
"keeper of 'the kids.'" "The
Boys!"
at our house include:
Jonny
Cat, II-
named
for Jonny Cat, who was in our "first family".
Michael
Anthony
(Mikey
or Mikki - depending upon whether I spell his name or Chuck, my husband
spells
it) Mikey is named after an expensive line of jewelry--because
he's
"mighty fine"!
Daniel
Boone
-
although
he's no
longer with us. We called him "Daniel" for short.
Mikey and Daniel were true
brothers - because they
were from the same litter
Wild
"Bill"
Hicock" -
who
is really just "Billy"
You probably see a pattern
here about now
Buffalo
Bill
"Cody"
- unfortunately
is also "gone." He
left us a little too young.
Jim
"Bowie"
- we
call him "Bowie" (Booie), although as the
"baby" he could easily be called the "brat" but that
wouldn't be nice!
Chuck
- daddy
of "The Boys," and husband of Karen.
All six
were/are Purebred Persians with babydoll faces. (Their faces
are sprinkled throughout this ezine, on the left side of each topic
page.) They
do not have the really smashed nose, which is a characteristic of some
Persians.
Except, Jonny; he's close--"by a nose!"
