Carnival of the Cats

Welcome to the 235th Edition of

Rocky: Since my humans are so busy with other things, I'm doing the Carnival all by myself ... so please forgive any typoCatical errors I might make!

I want to dedicate this week's Carnival to:

- Our good friend Daisy the Curly Cat and her family, whose beloved Pixie went to the Rainbow Bridge this morning after a long, brave struggle with advanced cardiomyopathy. Farewell, sweet Pixie.
- And to all our friends in Texas and Louisiana whose lives have been disrupted by Hurricane Ike. The entire Cat Blogosphere is purring that you're safe and that your lives will soon be back to normal.
..............................................................

First up, at Om Shanti Handcrafts, Loiosh meets some orange, occasionally polydactyl kittens … then, wearing wings, takes a very interesting nap ...
Next, I think I agree with Lenny and Carl's dad over at MoneyGrubbingLawyer, who says, "Forget pet insurance; buy catnip and kibble instead!"

Whoa, hop on board! The Scratching Post's Maximum Leader is going tuna shopping!

At Nanashi, Inc., Denali and Isis are herding grasshoppers in their freshly mowed lawn.

Eric and Flynn are are also hunting in the green, green grass of their home in the UK.

At The Poor Mouth, Bebe is peering over a Robyn barricade.

What's this? Blog D'Elisson reports that Hakuna has been assimilated into the Borg Collective!

Perfectly Parker takes some new Breeze litter box systems for a trial run ... but runs into some woofie problems!

Don't miss the three faces of the beautiful Miss Abba Dabba (aka Abby) at Manx Mnews!

At Elms in the Yard, Missy exhibits the perfect technique for attracting belly rubs ...
Now, let's all go wish a Happy 17th Purrthday to Henry over at Texas Oasis!

Then rush over to My Cats and Funny Stories and watch the video of Arthur and Rosie taking over the bathtub.

You'll think you're seeing double at Sleeping Mommy -- but those look-alikes are Mo and Tommy.

At Catymology, handsome Aloysius celebrates his Gotcha Day.

Maus at Composite Drawlings wisely explains why there's no need for Chee-Tos when you have plenty of Mom-Toes!

Another great video! Watch Kismet show you just how to deal with a bug on the ceiling at Russ. Just Russ.

Oh no! Moi has a problem over at Bloggg! "Dey tuk mi feets!"

Yum! Babe and Tiny are sampling the Spring Chicken Delight at sisu.

At iInfidel, Cece the cow kitty perfects the art of wall lounging ...

... while some serious yard skulking is going on at iMeowza ...

... then it's back up on the wall again at Mind of Mog.

Jiminy Cricket! Victor Tabbycat and Nina the Torbie have a new toy - a Jug O'Bug!!

China Cat checks out some bunnies on the lawn from her cozy ham-mick ... well, that is, when Willow isn't in it!

The CatSynth kitties are exhausted and catching up on some rest … and some pats, too.

Ahh, yes. Psychic Cottage celebrates the joy of caring for grandkitties - especially when they're Bengals.

Hot(M)BC's Boni Maroni discovers that cardboard boxes don't taste like chick-hen - but they're perfect for packing up purrs to send to all our friends in Texas and Louisiana that they've stayed safe from Ike.

Finally, check out what we cats do on a hot day at Idyllic Dreams.


Don't miss next week's Carnival of the Cats
hosted by those gorgeous kitties at

Friends Furever!

A lovely CotC post Rocky ! But somehow our own sad contribution must has slipped somewhere. It's Zorro, our biggest brofur, who has disappeared whilst being horrendously injured. Here's the story: http://thehouseofchaos.wordpress.com/2008/09/11/worrying-disappearance/
We're hanging together now, missing him muches.

Good work, Rocky!!! Hi to efurryone at your place. I haven't been around much at all since SS returned because she has been "bizzy" and has not had time to help me visit or blog. What use is a SS if she can't do that.

The Taylor CatSSSSS said...

Rocky, you are doing a great job on the Carnival!!! We enjoyed ourselves!!!

Daisy said...

Thank you so much for dedicating this week's Carnival to Pixie. She would have loved it! Your thoughtfulness is very much appreciated during this sad time.

Aloysius said...

Great job, Rocky!

I swear I don't know how Loiosh managed to fall asleep that way, but it looks like Missy nearly has the same technique down.

Loiosh swears it was comfortable.

The Taylor CatSSSSS said...

Thanks so much!!!

The larger that the head size is for your babolat pure drive, the more power you will be provided with. Additionally, a larger wilson k six size means a larger sweet spot which is why beginners as well as intermediate players often prefer to work with a head microgel with a larger head size. Additionally, thicker frames are also capable of generating more power as well. Smaller head sizes on prince-o3-tour on the other hand are capable of providing less power, but significantly more control cheap tennis racquets.cheap ed hardypolo shirts cheapcheap tennis racketsdiscount tennis racketsralphlaurenpoloshirtscheappolospolo fashionpolo logopolo shirts in voguepolo women clothinged-hardy shirtsed-hardy sunglassesed-hardy logopolofashioncheaptennisracquetsed-hardy sunglasses
