indoors Arrival Story: Calvin was my aunt's beloved cat. When she passed away, her evil husband took all 4 of her cats to the Humane Society the day after the funeral. I "bought" all 4 of them back - found homes for 3 and kept him! He is a great cat, and I know why she loved him so much. Calvin made his journey to the bridge on October 26th at 11:35 a.m. after a six week battle with stomach cancer. Rest in peace, sweet angel. We will love and miss your precious face. July 19, 1991 - October 26, 2009 Bio: Calvin is the most affectionate cat I've ever been around. He would spend all day in your lap if he could! He loves to snuggle at night and capture any body heat he can. We had to buy a king-sized bed because of Calvin.
Clocks are not needed in our house since we got Calvin. He is the morning alarm clock. And you know if he is sitting in the kitchen by the refrigerator, it must be 3:30 p.m. With Calvin, you can't just give a spontaneous treat because then he will expect it every day at the same time! Calvin also sleeps in the cutest positions. His mommy says, "you can't get any cuter than that" about the way he sleeps! For an older cat he is always ready for fun, and he has quite an adventureous spirit.

Hi pals! I guess it's no secret that the mistletoe rosette is a freebie right now!
But, what you probably don't know is the secret about the mistletoe for us angels. Now, remember, you're not supposed to know this stuff so that when you become an angel, you have to act surprised!
Everycat knows that if you stand under the mistletoe, you might get kissed. And everycat knows that I'm not a big fan of kissing girls. Luckily, I didn't live until I was 21 because then I would have had to pick a girlfriend. But at the bridge, I'm always gonna be 18 years old with a healthy body, and lots of friendgirls.
There are two times a year that I'll let my friendgirls kiss me. One of those times is in February when I set up my Valentine Kissing Booth. The money I take in from that goes to the Charity Cloud. I'll tell you more about that in February.
The Christmas Kissing Booth works a little differently. In our mailbox last week, we all got a Christmas Punch Card and a piece of mistletoe. For every kiss you get from some girlcat when you're under your mistletoe, you get a hole punched in your Christmas Punch Card. After you get twelve punches in the card, you can turn the card in for a gift.
I've already checked out the gift shop, and there are some pawsome toys, cat beds, and other cool stuff. So, I guess I'd better get my pucker ready for some serious smooching!
All of my angel family - Autumn, Rocky, Spunky, Sugar, and I wish you a pawsome Christmas weekend! We'll be watching over you, and you might even feel a little angel dust on your shoulder!
I gotta go - I see some angels lining up at my cloud . . . . . I think Rocky Ann is the first in line . . . . . it figures . . . . *rolls eyes*
I wanted to talk to all my pals who received a special holiday Calvin Collar this year. I have a secret to tell you, but remember, don't tell my secrets!
A special pal of mine said he/she had heard about Secret Santas. He/she wanted to be a Secret Santa, so they ordered 10 holiday Calvin Collars to send to 10 different friends.
Some of you might have thought those came from The Cat in the Clover, and you're right - they did - but they aren't from me and my family - they are from a Secret Santa that you know!
Now, guess what else is so pawsome about this Secret Santa? By purchasing 10 of the Calvin Collars, it bumped us over the 200th Calvin Collar sold since I journeyed to the bridge!
As you know, for every 25 collars sold, we sponsor a kitty at Best Friends Animal Society. The EIGHTH kitty that was recently sponsored is Fredrika! If you click on the link, you can go to the blog to see her picture and find out all about her.
She is a very shy kitty. The reason Fredrika was picked, besides being an orange kitty, is that she is from Phoenix! I think she is pretty too, and I hope she finds a forever home very soon.
Be sure to let me know if you got your Secret Santa collar, and if you get a picture wearing it, I want to know that too so that I can be sure the Secret Santa sees it!
Happy Thanksgiving - I'm on the table setting committee this year, so I've got to go because we're making placecards today!
Wowza, it was a busy day up here at the bridge. Three of our pals made their journeys. I'm just glad they could ride on the same cloud and arrive at the gate together.
Purrs to their families tonight - don't worry about them - they have a gazillion angel pals to keep them company.
