		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I'll tell you what is sad. This new Catster. All of the changes should be thrown into my cat box and buried. *folds arms stubbornly*

EVERYTHING is rediculous. It is completely catering to people looking for information. Nothing about it shows what Catster really is - or used to be, anyway.

And what is with the Community tab? I don't want to click 30 times to get to what I'm looking for.

There are still things I can't find.

And the carpet.... really Catster, REALLY? It is hideous and completely lacks creativity.

And all the white is killing Humans eyes - and shes only 18! 

We miss the Catster Green. We really do. The blue and orange belongs on Dogster.

And what the hairballs is with NUTRO?! It needs to GO! 

And now HQ seems to be turning aginst us. They took the Say NO to Nutro group off of the Most New Member's list (and it is THERE, trust me!)

They are ignoring everything that we say, and censoring our posts in the forums, when none of them are mean in any way. (well, mine may have been, but thats just the cat I am! I fight for what is right, and ain't no one going to tell me otherwise!) 

It makes me very sad that Catster is turning aginst their community. Their egoes must be covering their eyes up if they can't see that it's the COMMUNITY that made Catster and Dogster what they are today, NOT HQ or its advertisers. 

I guess their true colors are beginning to show. 

Me and Human are starting to not want any part of this site any more. We've been here for 6 years almost, and we have loved this site since, but the love came to a stop when all these changes came about.

We wont be renewing Plus. We wont be buying Zealies. We wont be buying from Nutro or any of Catster's other advertisers either.

Purrs & Pounces,
~Chey~

UNITE IN SAYING NO TO NUTRO

If you don't like Nutro Ads on Catster or Dogster ... help us unite by joining in this group

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ <i>5:15 AM</i> this morning of October 30th, a phone call woke everyone up. Human sleepily reached for the phone which said "Central Station" on it, and showed an 800 number. She rolled over thinking "stupid telemarketers" and attempted to drift off again, when she heard Human IIs phone go off. Its very noticeable, for the ring is the entrance to Metallicas "Enter Sandman". Suddenly out of the silence of night, a lone siren sounds. Human raises her head to listen. Soon another comes, then another. 

<i>5:30 AM</i>, Human II gets a call from the gas station, that he and The Human work at. He tries to call them back, but no one answers. He gets up, says hes gonna drive by and see whats going on. Human gets up too, waking me up, and tells him shes going too. He refuses to let her and she stalks back to her room, disheartened. 

<i>5:50 AM</i>, Human II calls Human and The Warden (formerly known as Granny) with an update. The station was on FIRE! There was 6 fire trucks, and guys on the roof hacking holes, and flames shooting out the top, and smoke everywhere! Human was stunned! This place, that she had been going up to for the past 12 years, that she had worked at for the past three, was in flame? 

Human got up immeadietly, and phoned her friend, who works there too. Had that place not have been there, they would've never met, and now this place was burning to the ground! After she got off the phone with him, she called her mom. Not thinkin her mom believed her at first, but she became as gossip-hungry as anyone else, and as that goes, Human was - and still is - starving! 

Of course, when Human was out making her calls, I escaped the room and wound up in the Wardens. Warden doesnt like me in her room so started complaining. Of course, I could sense the tension, and darted between Humans legs into the living room, around into the dining room then to the back of the house, while she chased me. We did that about four times. Human was glad I was there to lighten the mood, but I was just mad at her for getting up. I was asleep between her legs.

<i>7:30 AM</i> Human II finally came back (reeking of smoke, mind you) and they drove past the station. Everything was stained in smoke, and there was a gaping hole in the peaked roof. Human II says everything is ruined and will have to be wrote off. They'll all have to either be transfered to other stores, or find new jobs while it gets fixed.

Cause of the fire is uncertain, as of now. Very possible that it was electrical, but personally Human thinks the manager was smoking in the office again. Shes a smart one.

No one was injured, just shocked and stinky.

Human dunno what shes gonna do for a job now.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today, September 11, 2008, seems very dismal in Omaha. This morning, no sun shone through the clouds. Rain poured down, and continues to, as the evening progresses. It seems as though all the Angels in Heaven are standing together, greiving with the country as We Remember. Large tears continue to spatter the ground. Thunder rolls through the metro, as the celestial beings continue to sob. Dark clouds curl over white ones, consoling eachother, and banding together. Lightning shoots through the skies, as anger burns through the unified beings. We remember.

This passage is in memory of those lives lost on that wretched day, seven years prior, and for all those men and women who have banned together to support and help rebuild this country as life goes on. Not the politicians; but the American people, for without these great citizens, this country would not be.

		<title>Update on 117 Cats Seized by the Nebraska Humane Society</title>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ As many of you know, I'm sure, Human volunteers out the Nebraska Humane Society. (NHS) 

A few days ago, the NHS seized 117 cats, 1 Rabbit and a Raccoon from a ladies home in Council Bluffs, after she had been caught shoplifting over a $100's worth of cat food from the local Walmart. 

For the full story click <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site  onClick="alert('Catster Alert: You are about to visit an outside link that was submitted by this pet owner.');" href="http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=2798&u_sid=10388483&AddInterest=1081">HERE</a>

Human went in today, at 8 am, to help out. With the big raid, and it being a Saturday, Human figured they'd be swamped, but they were the exact opposite. However, by the time she got there this morning, 40+ cats had already been euthanized. Many are testing possitive for Feline Leukemia. They are also finding Upper Respiratory Infections in almost all of them, ringworm, ear mites, and Dental Disease due to the deplorable conditions they were kept in. Later though, she spoke with one of the vets, and they said they are actually going against protocol to save as many as they possibly can... Yay Vets!!!

When she was in surgery, she saw them spaying and neutering a few kits, one actually stopped breathing when she was in there, but they got it (not sure on gender, think it was a he) goin' again!

She only got to bring up 3 cats today, a 8 mos old tortoiseshell she named Kashanti, a Giant Black Cat that looked like me, just 20 times bigger, Simba, and a white with orange one, Chelsie. Had she named the black and white/orange one, the black would be Goliath and the white/orange Queso. *giggle*

Human was up there until five, helping out the Vet Techs and such. Had her mom not have been there, she most likely would've stayed another two or three hours, even after her already 9 hr day. She just wishes for every cat to be happy until they find their forever homes, and for some, it takes awhile. 

We have two 13 yr. old cats there right now, whos owner had had them from kittenhood and decided she didnt want them anymore. Tears Human up. But they are sweet cats, and the Torbie plays peek-a-boo from under her cat bed. Teehee! 

Anyway, so start Purrin' for Adoptions, kits! We have over a hundred up for adoptions, not including the cats seized, in Isolation, Maternity, Stray, Owner Surrender, etc.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Hey Kitties!

Oh my Katâ€¦. Our power has just now come back on. No more withdrawal from internet! Yesterday around 4, Humans were up at Work. They work at a gas station. They watched this storm move in. The TV had said something about golf ball size hail coming with it, so Human II put the car in the car wash. As soon has he parked, BAM! The trashcan slammed into the side of the door. He fought his way out, getting drenched as he came back to the store. Human and her friend were standing by the doors, when suddenly the power went out. Scotty was talking to his mom on the phone, and had said â€œOh my Goshâ€ when this giant wind hit, and then the line went deadâ€¦ scared the poop out of her! Anyway, this guy came up seeking shelter and freaking out. The wind and rain picked up, and it turns out the gusts were over a hundred miles an hour! Suddenly, both front doors flew open, sucked by the powerful winds. Human II kind of freaked out, and we thought that guy was going to have a heart attack. Human II made everyone go into the office. Without the power, they were totally blind as to what was happening. The back door, which stays bolted shut in about 4 places, flew open as wellâ€¦ then everything stopped. Human was the first out, of course, and they saw the trashcans had flown everywhere, and plastic signs hanging on the car wash were shredded. There was a tree in the middle of the parking lot behind the store that no one knows where it came from. Human and Scott went outside once the rain stopped, and found piles of hail. They checked out behind the car wash and found a family of 6 baby bunnies, soaking wet. Poor things! Once a coworker got there, Humans rushed home to see if me, the rest of the animals and Granny were OK. As they drove home, they saw power lines lying on houses, and the gas station about half a mile from home, the canopy above the gas pumps is mangled and torn, and laying on the ground. They had to take a detour to get to our neighborhood, a mobile home park which was decimated. They fought to get through the area, and saw downed trees, flattened lawns, some of the trailers look like someone took a machine gun to it. The horror really struck when they pulled into the drive, seeing our tree lying on top of our neighborsâ€™ house. Had it fallen the other way, Granny and I would be dead. Humans ran inside. Luckily Granny was OKâ€¦ and so am Iâ€¦ but Granny said I was freaking out, yowling and clawing at the door to Humans room. (I have to stay in there when Human isnâ€™t home.) Human opened the door to see me, and I meowed so loudâ€¦ I jumped into her arms and just purred. Our neighborhood was definitely hit the hardest though. Whatâ€™s strange is our neighborsâ€™ tree is also down, and was in the middle of the road, but she had a jug of sun tea on her porch, and it was sill thereâ€¦ untouched. Our house has a busted window, and the skirting fell. There are also chunks taken out of the side from the hail. But other then that, we were one of the lucky ones. Down the road, some guys porch is on top of and through his roofâ€¦ and another trailer was split in half by a tree... crazy weather. The Red Cross was driving around earlier, handing out sandwiches and chips. I still seem pretty shaken, as I most likely watched our tree go bye-bye, since itâ€™s just outside the window. Normally I enjoy storms, but I wanted my Human! Me and Human have been dying of boredom until now. It was so dark around here, she could see stars outside through the window. STARS!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I had to save my Human last night! Holy Meow!!!

OK, so it was about 11:30 last night, Human was laying in bed, and I just got up to go eat. She had her glasses off, and was talking on the phone with her friend. Suddenly, I jumped over her face, kicking her, and bounded over to the body pillows. I stood stretched out on my back legs, front paws on the wall, and started chirping, alarmed. She cant see well without her glasses on, but looked up where I was 'pointing' and saw a wisp of something on the wall.... suddenly, the tv sleep timer wears out and all goes black. Human freaked. She nearly back flipped out of her bed, and ran to the lightswitch. (and scrambled for glasses) Warily, she walked back to the bed, where I was looking up and down te wall. She had a feeling she knew what it was, and then she saw it. It looked like a funnel-web spider, except it was pure white. The sucker was about 3 inches long! (though to Human, it was more like three feet!!! And it was prolly closer to two inches, but I digress) 

She was having a fit, glad her friend was on the phone to help her through the ordeal. I still couldnt see it (when the lights went out, I lost track of it) so bravely, my Human grabbed a box, and after rounding up all her courage, she hit the wall with it, hitting the spider. As she backed up however, the creature was not squashed, and instead retaliated. It leapt onto the box and made a dash for her hand. Human screamed, her friend about went deaf, and the box went flying. 

How could she sleep now? The thing was lost, in her bed no doubt, and looking for revenge. Carefully, mustering all remaining courage, she moved one of her pillows. The spider sprang to the wall, and began running up it. This time, Human made sure to kill it. Then she had to clean it up though (yuck) and Granny was fussing cause she was gonna "come tthrough the wall". 

After Human was finished, she killed the light, turned the tv back on, and resumed talking to her friend, laying in bed. She was wide awake, and shaking like a leaf. Spiders are the only thing shes afraid of, mind you, but shes no where near as bad as Human II. 

I sprawled out across her, and began to purr, making sure she was OK, and letting her know I'd keep watch. After they hung up (around midnight) I stretched out, mumbled "Meeeet" (my way of saying night) and lay my head on her chest. I softly purred us both to sleep.

4. I have a white hair on top of my head.
5. Lately when Human comes home, she finds me sleeping under her blankets.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I knew something was going on. This morning, I had the feeling that I should butter up Human for some reason. So I did. Always trust your instincts!

Anyway, so around 2 pm, she said "Time to go, Good Kit!" I hesitated, but let her put my harness and leash on me, and pranced out to the car with her. Humans mum came over, and drove us. I sat on Humans lap the whole way... with my head out the window. People in other cars and on the streets would point and smile.

So we pulled into this little parking lot, downtown. I scented the air, and it was oddly familiar, though I couldnt recall coming to this place in a while, so I couldnt totally remember what it was. I hopped out of the car, as Human shut the door, and walked to the entrance of the building on the lot.

Then I knew. It was the V-E-Ts office. I turned and attempted to run to the car, but Human picked me up and carried me in. 

Dun dun dun!!!

We got checked in, and Human handed over the little poo bag. "No wonder she was playing in my litter box earlier!" I thought to myself. We were told to sit down and wait for the doc. 

There was another cat running loose in the place. He was a black cat with green eyes and I swear he was hitting on me, so I hissed at him and snuggled into Human. Then this hyper poodle thing came bouncing out of its room. Icky poodle! Aaak!! I was glad when it left. 

Then a bulldog came in and started sticking its nose in the wrong spot, and I about clawed his eyes out.

Then they called us back.

Human put me on this stinky table, but I jumped down, and attempted to pull the door open. When that didnt work, I started pawing at the window. Nothing. I didnt get my usual vet, but instead this lady who sounded like a horse when she talked and laughed. Human put me on the table while she looked at my teef and in my eyes and ears. I hissed at her a bunch, but it didnt work.

She stopped finally, and I thought I had finally gotten to her, but then she pulled out these needles.... they were like.... 6 feet long and 3 feet wide!!! (not really) She started walking towards me, and I struck at her. "No touchy!!" I hissed with rage. She made Human hold me down, though, while she poked me in the butt THREE STINKIN' TIMES!!!!!!!!! I did claw her though, and Human, when she blocked me from clawing the vet.

Then Evil-Lady-Who-Talks-Like-Horse left. I was very unhappy, and walked around pacing and yowling to get away. But she came back. She said "All the tests came back fine, and gave me a 'clean bill of health', whatever that is, and weighed me at 8.6 lbs, and took money from Humans, and signed papers, and FINNALLY we could leave!!!

Human carried me out and put me in the car, and we headed for home. When we got in the neighborhood, Human had to hold my leash tight cause I was trying to climb out the window. I wanted to go home dang it!!!

And now I'm sooo tired.... Human hopes I sleep tonight. But I think I want to sleep now.... Zzzzzz.....

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Tonight, Human & I went to see Humans best friend, RC, and Cisco! Cisco is getting so big, and fat!! Hes like.... twice my size now. I'm too tiny.

But poor Cisco jumped off the railing wrong, and sprained his leg. He couldnt play with me because of it, so I curled up with him and kept him company. I made sure to give his ears a good washing, and be a good little not-really-kitty-mum. I felt so bad for him!

But we had fun. We layed between our Humans while we all watched a movie about horses called "Dreamer". Was pretty good. Humans had a lot to catch up on, as did we kits. Cisco tells me that RC has a Human Tomfriend now, and he does NOT like the idea of another tom spending more time with his Human! I told him that its just part of life, but he still doesnt like the idea. I dont blame him though. 

By the time the movie was over, he was asleep, with his head on my paws, and I was awake with my head on his. Humans thought it was cute, but I just wanted to make him feel better! Hes my buddy/kitten! I made sure to give him a good face washing before we left. I will miss him very much, and he will probably miss me too. It was a bummer though, that he couldnt play, but at least hes old enough to realize that attempting to nurse does no good and gets him smacked!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I got on this morning, even though Im wasnt supposed too, and saw that I had a ton of new rosies. Couldnt figure out why though. Til I scrolled down that is. 

<b><i><u>I'M CATSTERS CAT OF THE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</b></i></u>

I think my jaw dropped so hard it busted through the desk.

I'd like to thank Catster HQ for this wonderful honor they've bestowed on me, and I'd like to think all of my friends for the rosies and stars and concats!! Without all of my wonderful friends, Catster would not be the same!! I love you all!!!

And tonight, we were in a tornado warning.... funnel went right over our heads, and there was 74 mph winds! Human liked it, but I just curled on her shoulder and refused to come down til it was over.

Anyway, back to celebratory BBQ at the Foriegn Legion!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ *yawwwwwnnnns* 

Got there, set-up, found we were benched between a tonkinese and an ocicat. There was 17 HHPs, which is a ton! We set up, I got into my tent and started being an instant brat. It started, we went to ring #6. I nearly got out, rubbed fur off my face, and was a total bad girl. No Final.

Went to ring 5, and I was good for the most part, but the judge was sooooo slllloooowwww..... no final.

Went to ring #4. I was VERY good in the cage, but hissed at the judge. No Final.

Went to ring 3. Was great in the cage, hissed a few times. 10th place. *holds for applause* Big pretty blue ribbon!

Went to ring 2. Was great in the cage, but hissed and struck at the judge. No Final.

And finally, ring 1. Was good in cage, but went after the judge so bad that she called Human up to get me out and put me on the stand. No final. 

Was a very off day for me. I've NEVER hissed or struck at someone before. When Human came to get me out of my cage, I jumped on her shoulder. Was a good kit then!!

But I had a ton of dandruff, for unknown reasons. My eyes were runny. Human thinks I hurt them in the first ring, as hard as I was pushing. 

One cat though, Canada, she was hissing at everything, and got a final EVERY TIME! Me thinks the show was rigged.

One judge said I look like I have burmese or tonkinese in me.

Am EXTREMELY happy to be home. Human II got me a feather toy when he and granny came to visit.

Human and I are wiped.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Ahh.... a place to put my thoughts for Sunday.... what a hectic day it was! Holy Katz!!

Human woke up around 10 am. Another rude awaken (so she says) by yours truly. *kitty grin* I was sprawled out on her chest, my head on her chin drooling. *blush* Being raised by dogs takes it toll on a kitten like me. But I wouldnt change it for the world! Heehee! For breakfast, I discovered a new tasty treat. Rice Krispies cereal ROCKS!!! She got a big bowl of them, and I ate out of my side while she ate out of the other. I only allowed her to put milk on her side though. Icky milk!!! *makes a face*

Human II brought us home Arbys for lunch. Roast Beef sandwhiches, num! Human had to share that too.

Later in the day, while on Catster, I got some bad news from my soon-to-be husband, Simba. His PawPaws cancer had returned. 

Now, mind you.... was having a pretty good day til then. Krispies, roast beef..... Good day was flushed down the toit-y.

I didnt totally know what to do. Human started shaking (worse then normal) making it hard for us to do much of anything. We pawmailed The Fiends informing them, and hoping for advice, as they always have the best, and IMed my Uncle T (Toulouse). The only thing I really knew to do, is to ask for purrs. Uncle T decided we should get together an emergency Purr Meeting at the Social Cats. The Fiends said we should postpone the rest of the GReat Catster Roadtrip, because since Simba and I were hosting it, and the Purr Meeting had come up, it would be too much for me. Agreed.

So for a few minutes there, I had to be GROWN UP. (believe it or not!) I gathered myself, and made the thread for The Purr Meeting, and posted about the trip, and stuff. Uncle T went around inviting all of our wonderful friends, and Cole posted in The Foreign Legion about the trip for me.

I guess Im kind of writing this to Thank Uncle T and The Fiends for helping me out when I needed to decide what to do.

I also gathered myself, Big Al, & Human and set off for Simbas page. Al & I left him a rosette, letting him know were always there for him, cause we are!! (Especially me!) And Human left a rosie for his mum. She thinks of his mum as a friend, and was very sad to hear the news. She doesnt know what she'd do if that happened to her dad.

My grown-up mode meter was starting to run low though. There was a GREAT turn out for the Purr Meeting, which was PAWESOME!!!! I was trying my best to remember to thank everycat for coming, and for purring for Simbas PawPaw, I hope I did good! I was so busy, I had to try and push my worry aside for a bit. My ears nearly began to smoke from stress, when Simba IMed. YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

I honestly dont think anyone can understand what a relief it was to hear from him. His pawmail scared the poop out of me, but Im glad he did pawmail. Was definantly relieved to see him, and know that he was doing OK. ***WHEW!*** Even though he couldnt stay long, there was still some time for pizza and a smooch. *purr*

The rest of the night went smoothly. I felt better that I had talked to Simba, and dropped out of Grown-Up mode. *Thank Kat!!* I continued purring at the Purr Meeting, and also continued a quiet chat with Sophie & The Fiends at The Foriegn Legion. 

<i> I'd truly like to thank everyone for helping me out Sunday Night, couldnt of done it without you guys! And also for joining me in purring for Simba and his family. They say the Power Of Purr works miracles, and thats exactly what PawPaw needs right now. 

I'm now sure of it - CATSTERS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please continue purring for Simbas PawPaw!!!</i>

Oh, and Sunday night we got quite the surprise.

Was about midnight. Human was just gettin ready to shut the computer down when I came running into the room meowing. She sensed I wanted her to follow me, and was right. I led her out to the aquarium where I sat and chirped. She peeked into the aquarium, and guess what she discovered!!! The guppy fish had BABIES!!!!! They is so cooooot!!!! Their witto eyes are bigger then their witto heads, and Human says she just wants to pinch their witto cheekies!!! But I told her thats probably not a good idea. She'd squash them!!

The babies are lucky they live in a house with a cat who wont eat fish. All the Catster cats are saying - yum!! Hrmph!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I prance into Petco, Human following obediently at my heels, holding the loop of my leash. I know today is a special day, because I get to visit with Cisco. Cisco was a kitten when we first met.... His Human, RC, is my Humans best friend. He was rescued by her, and they love eachother very much. RC wanted me to purrsonally mentor him, to teach him how to be a good kitty, and keep close bonds with your Human. We think RC is a little jealous of Human and I's strong bond. But Human said something was different about today. She says that RC is moving to a Boarding School in Minnesota, and Cisco gets the priveledge of going with. This will be farewell for awhile. Cisco is my buddy, and I will miss him lots. But I understand. Im sure he will mmiss me too, he thinks Im his mommy. I secretly love the fact that he thinks that, but refuse to let anyone know.

We meet RC and Cisco in the back of the store - Cisco has picked out a toy for the trip. I prance over to him and give him a few licks on the head, answered by him with purrs of pleasure. RC reaches down and scratches my ears..... my leg begins to thump on the ground - thats the spot! Our Humans laugh and converse... reminiscing about old times. How they met, RCs old cat Precious, Alex, the time at the lake..... good times that they wont forget. I look over at Cisco and chirp at him. "I think we've shared some good times too." I say to him. He looks over at me through his icey blue eyes, and his seal pointed face. Though hes only 6 mos or so old, hes bigger then me. "Yeah." he says discreetly before looking back down at his paws. I can sense what he is thinking and give him a headbonk. "Cheer up, kitter!" "But Mo- er, Chey...." he starts out. "Im not gonna see you again for a long time. This is good bye." He looks at me again, sadness filling his sapphire eyes. "As Human II's grandma always said.... 'Never say goodbye, cause goodbye is forever.' Besides, look't you! Almost grown-up... you dont need me around anymore." I tell him... though I know it wont do any good. Hes stubborn. Human says he learned that from me. 

Human makes a click with her tongue, stealing my attention and says "Chey, shoulder." I chirp again, sounding very much like a tribble as if to say 'Hold on.' I turn back to Cisco, licking his head until all of his floofy head fur is standing on end, and give him one of my kitty grins. (I pull the corners of my mouth back and close my eyes, much like a cheesy grin) "You were a good.... son." I chirp at him. He kitty grins back. I jump to my Humans shoulder, digging in my claws for a good grip and wrapping my tail around her neck. Cisco does the same, catching RC off guard and almost knocking her down. We stop so Humans can say goodbye to their friend - a lady who brings her fostered kittens up to petco every weekend to see if they'll get adopted - and Human holds a tortie kit. The lady just loves me, thinks Im the coolest cat around for walking on my leash and being so obedient. I say hi to the little kitten, licking her head and trilling at her like I always did with Cisco - I love kittens! Human hands the kitten back, and Human and RC walk out together.... Cisco and I on their shoulders. 

Once outside, we say our farewells. "Say see ya, Chey!" Human says. I touch my nose to hers, then turn to Cisco and RC and raise my paw in the air - waving. "See ya! Love ya guys!" I mrrrowl their way. Cisco mrows back. "Im surprised you didnt say Live Long And Pawspurr!" he jokes. "Later Chey-Mum!" With that.... we turn and go our seperate ways.

We will miss them very much, but luckily.... "See ya" isnt forever.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I got late birthday pressies today, and yesterday. Yesterday, I got a pack of about 12 or so mousies and a fantastic cat dancer thingy that is a looooonnnnggg piece of rainbow fleece on a stick from my pal <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.catster.com/cats/58594">Squeakers</a>!!!

(its about the size of my head) There was also a pack of nummy chicken greenies, and this pack thing with about 4 or 5 plushie mousies, a ton of tinkle balls AND a little cat dancer thing thats just the right size that I can play with it by myself! There was also a new collar in there for me, its diet pepsi can blue, with a pretty little diamond looking charm and a bell. Human says its a good thing he sent it, because she cant find my normal collar. *evil laugh* Ooh! And as an added bonus, a BOX!!!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ As many of you know, my Humans birthday and my birthday are the same day - June 14. Each year we do a little report and where the year has taken us and what interesting things have effected our lives. Thus, with the passing of my third birthday, here is the year in my own purrsonal review.

Much has happened in the past year! June was OK. Boy did I feel bad that I missed the surprise birthday party thrown for me by The A-Team. June 19, I swear, was the worst day of my life! The Fiends left Catster! I was shocked and saddened. Two days later, June 21, to ease the pain, I got Catster Plus. However, I was still Devastated about the Fiends.

July rolled around, and it was pretty good. Was my good buddy Simbas birthday! I just loved to tease him about being grown-up! *giggles*

In August, I was spayed, and as Arthur puts it, I became a real grown-up house cat! Haha, "grown-up" my foot! Im still as wild and crazy as I was when I was younger. I was actually pretty mellow as a kit. My poor tum-tum was naked, and it got real drafty, so for the short term (until my fur grew back, that is) I slept in my cat bed, or snuggled up with Human. I was saddened that school was back, and as my Human entered high school, I lolly-gagged around and gained a few pounds to "fill me out" some.

About a month later, September, the PIG came! To those of you who dont know the pig, he is the shih tzu thing we are watching for a friend. He was to stay only until December, but the durn mutt is still here! I see this may be becoming a permanent thing. *swishes tail* I suppose as the months go by, he is starting to grow on me... but I cant let anybody know! 

October was good. Humans little sister celebrated her first birthday.I got to go to the party, and I killed a wasp, saving their lives! Towards the end of the month, I dressed up in my Darth Vadar costume and toook second place at Petco's costume contest - runner up to the spongebob dogs. The Catster Halloween party was a blast too!

November came around, as did much sadness for my Human. November 18th, is Dallas' birthday you see. 'Nuff said. Also, I became a single cat on Catster. Boy was that strange!

December was great! Miss Marina gained her nickname as "Trip-M" when she got me and Simba together. We were originally trying to trick her, but.... hehe! I love Simby!! Christmas was great too!

January rolled around soon after, bringing a brand spankin' new year with it!! For Humans mums boyfriends 40th birthday, we decked the house out in black (yay!!) and through a party! Needless to say, I fit in purrfectly!!

February was pawesome! Celebrated Valentines day with Simba! *purr* I love him so much!

March was pawesome.... we had a HUGE snowstorm, that was lotsa fun! The 22nd, Human II celebrated his birthday, and the Humans went too an Evanescence concert. What made March more pawesome, was the fact that Selket and Jacques returned! I was soo happy!!!

In April, spring came! It was still a little chilly, but it was spring! Jewel celebrated her 7th birthday, boy shes getting old! April was a good laid back month. I spent my time pestering Human, and mussing up songs.

May was very hectic!! The 13th was Mothers day and Humans mums birthday, the 15th, Humans relatives came for a visit, the 16th was Grannys retirement party, the 17th was Grannys birthday, and that night we took her out to celebrate. The 18th she officially retired. The 23 and 24 were Humans last days of school, so she spent time studying instead of playing with me. *pout* The 25th, we all left to go camping. The 26 & 27 were the cat show! I got 8th place, 10th place, and 4th place! The 28th, we came home, the 29th, Humans mum had her surgery (she got spayed due to systs) and the 31st was RC (Humans best friend) birthday. What a month!!

Now we've entered June. This day marks the half way point in the year. (well, thats probably tomorrow now that I think about it.....) So far its been iffy. The first few days were soothing and stormy. A much needed relaxing spell. Now that Human is home more, that allowed us too bond and become even closer. I love my Human. Today, we celebrate our birthday.

Becoming 3 gives me mixed feelings. I dont know rather to be sad, happy, or what.

Pros to turning 3....
- presents
- this makes me, what... 21? Hey, I can buy my own catnip!

Cons to turning 3.....
- Aak, Im getting old! (on the outside)
- Do you see these white hairs?
- No more terrible twos. *frowns*

A review of my 'terrible twos,' I believe I've lived up too it!  Throughout the year, I've destroyed a computer monitor, and two keyboards, including the evil PINK one which Im so proud of killing, I should make a trophy out of it - but its pink. I've gone through many a mousie, killed Grannys ceramics, ALMOST got one of the evil dolls, but I didnt knock it down the right way. *pouts* I think the one thing thats suffered most is Humans arm though... I play too rough sometimes. Heehee.

Well, I think I've covered it all. I enjoyed being Terribly Two, and hope to cause just as much, if not more mischief as a three-year old!!

In a month I shall proudly pass down my Terrible Two crown down to Simba. May his reign as the ruler of the Terrible Twos be as great as mine!! Mwahahaha!!!!!!

Purrs & Pounces,
~Chey~

Aaaak....... Am I a Grimalkin now???? Selket, Help!!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ <b>Chey:</b> Human, why do people not get along?
<b>Human:</b> Well, Kitter, some people just dislike eachother I guess.
<b>Chey:</b> But, what would the world be like if everyone cared?
<b>Human:</b> Oh my Meow-Kit! It'd be wonderful! No hate, no fighting, no suffering, it would be perfect!
<b>Chey:</b> What about that Star Trek quote that Data said to the borg queen in First Contact? "Believing oneself to be perfect is often the sign of a delusional mind." Wait.... wasnt it different then that? *they look through the internet* Ah well.... but you've seen the movie, you know what Im talking about!
<b>Human: </b>Yes, One, its one of my favorite quotes! I guess things will never truly be perfect, but I can dream, cant I?
<b>Chey:</b> Of course, Human! 
<b>Human: </b>Good..... dreams are sometimes my only relief from reality.
<b>Chey:</b> Why else would we dream?]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My Kat, its so good to be home!!

Friday night, we all got into the truck and drove 2 hours to a lake outside of Des Moines, IA. I rode on Humans lap pretty much the whole time. When we got there, she put me in Jewels kennel, and set up. Was not a happy kit... was meowing and flipping trying to get out, when suddenly, coyotes started howling all around us!! When things got set up, she let me out in the tent and we went to bed.

At about 6 in the morning we woke up.... felt like two degrees, so everyone was shivering including me!! We packed up and climbed into the truck when it started to rain and headed off to the show. While trying to find it, we found out there was an Arabian Horse Show right across the street!! We got in, and were directed to our benching seat. Human went to get the cage, and the lady next to us helped her set it up. When they finally let me otu of the kennel, Human got yelled at cause I was on my leash. (extremely stupid if you ask me!) So I had to stay in my cage which I WASNT happy about! I almost pushed it off the table once. I went through 5 rings that day. There was 20 HHPs total. Was having a cow in the cages though, was flipping and yowling and trying to escape - and one judge HISSED at me!!!! Needless to say, I shut up! We enjoyed chatting with Sir Gatsbys Humans between shows. Sir Gatsby was a cool cat! We got one final that day, and Humans were SHOCKED!!!! I got 8th place, and the judge said I got it because she just loved my silky plushy fur, and my gorgeus gold eyes, but mainly because of the locket! Human was proud. We got back to the campsite, and laid in the tent for awhile. I was so tired. We got to bed early that night.

Sunday we woke up, and went back. I was better in my benching cage, and Human said I was a good Kitters. The first ring, I did good, and got called back for a Final! I got tenth place, but had to be taken back to my benching cage early cause I almost got out again. Humans mum got the rosette signed (its tradition I guess) The next ring, I did good too, got called up for yet another Final!! I got fourth place, beating the top two cats in the region - Orrie Oops & Bellavisa Capri - and a few more big wigs! The judge said he picked me for fourth because I was the only cat that he could tell my purrsonality. He also dubbed me Flipper, because I kept doing sommersaults tryign to get out of the cage. Human again was shocked. I did great in the next ring, but no more finals.

Were home now, after many arguements and Jurrasic Park sized bugs and spiders and a whole lotta stress.]]></content:encoded>

&#9834; On the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been
Seein' things that I may never see again,
And I can't wait to get on the road again.

On the road again
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world be turnin' our way
And our way
Is on the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ If I live to be a hundred
And never see the seven wonders
Thatll be alright
If I dont make it to the cat shows
If I never win a ribbon
Im gonna be just fine
cause I know exactly who I am

I am Granny's grandkitty
The spitting image of my brothers
And when the day is done
Simbas still my biggest fan
Sometimes Im crazy and Im clumsy
But Ive got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
Its all a part of me
And thats who I am

So when I make a big mistake
When I fall flat on my face
I know Ill be alright
Should my tender heart be broken
I will cry those teardrops knowin
I will be just fine
cause nothin changes who I am

I am Granny's grandkitty
The spitting image of my brothers
And when the day is done
Simbas still my biggest fan
Sometimes Im crazy and Im clumsy
But Ive got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
Its all a part of me
And thats who I am

Im a saint and Im a sinner
Im a loser, Im a winner
Im silly and wise
Im young but I am able

I am Granny's grandkitty
The spitting image of my brothers
And when the day is done
Simbas still my biggest fan
Sometimes Im crazy and Im clumsy

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Put on my blue collar
And I leapt to the desk 
Landed in the spot where the captain sits 
In the middle of the keyboard 
My Human -- won't you look over me 
and help me press these keys
so I can hang out with all my buddies 

While I'm playing on Catster 
Prancin' to the Late Late Show 
Playing On Catster
And boy do I love it so! 

Saw the spirit of Vijay 
By The Foriegn Legion 
Followed him to the edge of The Lakeside
Then I watched him head back home 
Did I really see him? 
He just disappeared into the mist 
But there's a pretty little flower 
To take my mind off things 
Down by the Pool Hall

While I'm playing on Catster 
Prancin' to the Late Late Show 
Playing On Catster
And boy do I love it so! 

They've got pizza on the table 
They've got music in the air 
And Simba and Tru be glad to see you 
When you haven't got a care 
But boy you've got no cares on Catster 

Now Bruce & The C-Street Band play  
Every now'n'then at the Moo Boo Club 
And they brought me down to see them 
And  asked me if I would -- 
listen awhile 
And I listened with all my might 
And they asked -- 
"Tell us what you think?" 
And I said "You guys were awesome!" 

While I'm playing on Catster 
Prancin' to the Late Late Show 
Playing On Catster
And boy do I love it so!  

Put on my blue collar
And I leapt to the desk 
Landed in the spot where the captain sits

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Three thirty in the morning 
Not a soul insight 
'Cept the young panther
stalkin' through the night 
Raindrops on the windows
There's a storm moving in 
She's headin' back from nowhere 
and everywhere shes been 
And the tinkleball rolls 
And the panther roams 

Not a light is burnin' 
In every house in town
She's pacin' in the shadows
Her eyes glow as she paces around 
Her tail is swishing
Her eyes glow bright
She crouches down
As her claws bring a fright 
And the tinkleball rolls 
And the panther roams

The thunder rolls 
And the lightnin' strikes 
Another tinkleball rolls
On a sleepless night 
As the storm blows on 
Out of control 
Deep in her heart 
The panther roams

She flys through the open window
Runs onto the drive 
She rushes catch it
To end its life
But on the wind and rain 
A strange new scent blows 
And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes 
And she knows that they knows 
And the tinkle ball rolls
And the panther roams 

The thunder rolls 
And the lightnin' strikes 
Another tinkleball rolls
On a sleepless night 
As the storm blows on 
Out of control 
Deep in her heart 
The panther roams

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ We just got back! It was so awesome! I was the only cat there, but I got to strut down the cat walk!! Through a field of dogs too! And their was even a POODLE!!! YUCK!!!! Poodles in pink... ewwwww!!! I was nervous at first, but I said hi to a couple people - including a squeaky little kid - and felt better! When it started, I was the third one to go! Human put me behind the curtains, handed my leash off until she could get around, then took my leash back and I pranced out across that thing like the little diva I am!! People snapped pictures, the camera man focused in, and I struck every pose I could think of!! Human is proud!! After my catwalk time, I jumped down and pranced through the field of dogs - and the squeaky kid - and jumped back into my cart! Squeaky kid had to come pet me - again. Thought for a sec she was hyperventalating or somethin!

I got a certificate, a pic, and huess what else? IM GONNA BE ON TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tonight on Fox 42 at 9! At least in our area! We'll put it on my page hopefully!

Purrs & Pounces,

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Its bothered me for awhile now. Theres something I dont understand. Why do people, and cats, not get along sometimes? I see it here on Catster sometimes even. They dont talk to eachother, and never get along. Now me, see, I love everyone! Even if you dont like me, I'll still love ya! However, it seems most kittys like me. Im always welcome where I go, and for that, I am thankful. I even pop into threads for torties and meezers, and they dont care! So, why are some people not welcome where they go? 

I always try to be nice and helpful, and I always try to bring fun where theres boredom. Im friendly to everykit, and I like it that way! I dont want to sound "stuck up," but why cant more kitties be like me in that respect? 

Theres to much dislike in this world. I dont see why.

I guess you either love me, or hate me! But be assured, I love you!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ To the music of Lee Greenwoods God Bless The USA

If tomorrow all the things were gone Iâ€™d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my Human and my mice.
Iâ€™d thank my lucky stars to be visiting here today,
â€˜Cause the â€˜puter still stands for fun times and they canâ€™t take that away.

And Iâ€™m proud to be a Catster where at least I know Iâ€™m crazy.
And I wonâ€™t forget the mods who try, to keep it safe for me.
And Iâ€™d gladly stand up next to HQ and defend her still today.
â€˜Cause there ainâ€™t no doubt I love this site God bless all of Catster.

From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,

From Moo Boo down to The Late Show and Social Cats to Trekkies,
Well, thereâ€™s pride in every Catster heart,
and itâ€™s time to stand and say:

Iâ€™m proud to be a Catster where at least I know Iâ€™m crazy.
And I wonâ€™t forget the mods who try, to keep it safe for me.
And Iâ€™d gladly stand up next to HQ and defend her still today.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My Human and I were to go to her mums house for a birthday party today. We did. Thats where I became a hero! 

It was the humans mums boyfriend, Tonys, Over The Hill party. Needless to say, I fit in just purrfect with the black balloons and streamers. Oh, and my green sweater matched the couch! *giggles* 

Anyway, we were having a good time. It was a small party, and an old friend of the family, Linda, came over since its her birthday too. She is the mum of the lady whos dog rescued me, so she loves to see me! Human did the decorating, and her mum cooked. Humans little sister, Laura, was playing with something by the couch. I ran over to her and started swatting at her til she ran off crying. Then I started snapping and biting at something. Human came over to see what it was, and by my paws, was a wasp!!!! It was dying quickly, from my attacks. Human stepped on it and cleaned it up. 

Now, it might not seem like much, but Tony is really allergic to them, so Laura might be too. I might've saved lives! Once everyone found it what it was, boy was I pampered!! Little bit of steak, little bit of chicken, and even some beef jerky!! I was a happy kitty!

Human is very proud of me! She calls me "Her Little Hero"]]></content:encoded>

and strength, happiness and sorrow, for better, for worse, 
I will love you with every beat of my heart.) </i>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Life after My Best Friends Death...

August 14, 2004, my best friend in the entire universe died. I was lost without her. Her name was Dallas, and she was a one and a half year old German Shepherd cross. She was my best friend, my soul mate of sorts, and she just was gone. It was a shocker for me most of all. I cried so much it hurt to blink. I fell into a deep depression, I felt like I didn't want to even live anymore. I felt I had not a friend in the world. My dad had mentioned that maybe I could get another pet in time however which made things slightly easier. Then one day, I got word that my aunts rottweiler, Sunny, had found a kitten in the yard. The next day, my mom took me over there, and the little kitten laid on me the whole time, purring. Low and behold, it was love at first sight. She came home with me that same day. Though she was sick and weak, we've nursed each other back to health. Now, Cheyanne is 2 and a half years old, and a little, psychotic bundle of craziness! She looks like Dallas, just in cat form, but she is wonderful either way! She has black fur and a little white locket on her chest. She's a great friend! I think some how, in some way, Dallas is guiding her. So Dallas' death has ended in the birth of a new love between me and Cheyanne.

<b> The Panther, </b> <i> by Jeanne M Owens </i>

Black as Night 
It hides in the shadows, 
Bright golden orbs 
Watching the movements 
Of the unsuspecting before it; 
Then, suddenly, it strikes, 
And Death claims yet another victim 
As the Panther snatches its Prey.

Hope you enjoy it as I did!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ <b> Up On The Cliffside </b>
Up on the cliffside
horsies pause,
Out jumps all the kitty paws.
Down to the ground go the cats
with lots of shivers from the horses freak attack,
All for the kitties,
Christmas joys.
Ho, ho, ho!
Who wouldn't go!
Ho, ho, ho!
Who wouldn't go!
Up on the cliffside,
click, click, click,
Back to the LLS
with the good ol' kits.

<b> Santa Paws Is Coming To Catster</b>
You better watch out
You better not cry

Santa Paws is coming to Catster!

He's making a list,
And checking it twice;
Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice.
Santa Paws is coming to Catster!

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!

O! You better watch out!
You better not cry.
Better not pout, I'm telling you why.
Santa Paws is coming to Catster!

<b> O Christmas Tree </b>
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
How many presents hold thee?
Your boughs are green
in summer's clime
And through the snows
of wintertime.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
How many presents hold thee?

O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
What goodies will befall me?
When oft at
joyous Christmas-time
Your form inspires
my song and rhyme.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
What goodies will befall me?

O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
Your boughs can
be fun to climb.
That constant faith
and hope sublime
Lend strength and
comfort through all time.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
Your boughs can
be fun to climb.

<b> Aint Gettin' Nuffin' Fur Christmas </b>
I barfed on Humans's head; 
Somebody snitched on me. 
I hid a mouse in Humans's bed; 
Somebody snitched on me. 
I spilled some pop on Humans rug; 
I made Human sit on a bug; 
Bought some 'nip with a penny slug; 
Somebody snitched on me. 

Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas 
Human and Human II are mad. 
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas 
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad. 

I put some trash on Human's chair 
somebody snitched on me. 
I tied a knot in Human's hair 
somebody snitched on me. 
I ate my Human's plants 
climbed a tree and tore Humans pants 
Filled my water bowl with food 
somebody snitched on me. 

So, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas 
Human and Human II are mad. 
I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas 
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad. 

I won't be seeing Santa Paws; 
Somebody snitched on me. 
He won't come visit me because 
Somebody snitched on me. 
Next year I'll be going straight; 
Next year I'll be good, just wait 
I'd start now, but it's too late; 
Somebody snitched on me. 

So you better be good whatever you do 
'Cause if you're bad, I'm warning you, 
You'll get nuttin' for Christmas.]]></content:encoded>

<b> Kitty Cat Rock </b>

Kitty cats, Kitty cats, Kitty cats rock 
Kitty cats swing and kitty cats ring 
Meowing and prowing up bushels of fun 
Now the kitty hop has begun 
Kitty cats, Kitty cats, Kitty cats rock 
Jingle Bells chime in Kitty cats time 
Dancing and prancing in Kitty cats Square 
In the frosty air. 
What a bright time, it's the right time 
To rock the night away 
Kitty cats time is a swell time 
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh 
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet 
Jingle around the clock 
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet 
That's the Kitty cat, 
That's the Kitty cat, 
That's the Kitty cats rock

<b> Here Comes Chey-Chey (me) </b>

Here comes Chey-Chey!
Here comes Chey-Chey!
Right down Chey-Chey Lane!
Simba and Truman and all her bestest buds
are following along the way.
Bells are ringing, children singing;
All is merry and bright.
Hang your stockings and say your prayers,
'Cause Chey-Chey comes tonight.

Here comes Chey-Chey!
Here comes Chey-Chey!
Right down Chey-Chey Lane!
She's got a bag that is filled with toys
for the cats again.
Hear those collar bells jingle jangle,
What a beautiful sight.
Jump in bed, cover up your head,
'Cause Chey-Chey comes tonight!!

Rockin' around the Late Late Show

"Let's be jolly, 
Deck the halls with boughs of holly."

Have a happy holiday. 
Ev'ryone dancing merrily 
in the new old fashioned way.

Hope you enjoyed them, and I might write more later... :)

Anything but tame
Black as night
Without a fright
Flecked white whiskers tickle her legs.
For a French fry she begs.
No matter the evil, sheâ€™s mine. 
Iâ€™ll love her til the end of time.
She stops me, steals my breath.
We wonâ€™t part until death.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ It was on this night that the lone wolf howled, singing the death of his fallen master. He sang to the stars and the heavens about how his fallen master perished. A body lay still near the wolf, lifeless and cold. An image of unimaginable fear engraved forever on his face. 

What would happen to the wolf now that his cruel master was gone? He would return to the wild, and rejoin his wild brethren in the call of the wild. A long howl trails through the night. Ghostly silhouettes blaze through the forest. The frost blanketed grass, crackling under the weight. Yet not a sound is made, not an object seen, but the wild forest is very alive.

Another ghostly silhouette crept upon the mountain top, this one alone. Golden cat eyes seeking prey. There, a large stag. The cougar crept around, and then pounced. 

Another creature slept in its den. It was the winter season. It had stuffed its large belly with fish and berries and was now waiting for spring in the midst of her slumber.

Soaring across the night sky, the symbol of America, she grazes the river side. Suddenly diving down and returning to the air, this time with a large salmon. With a whoosh, she returns to her nest to feed on the fresh fish meat. 

Another howl is heard, startling a herd of caribou. They group in tighter together for protection, All but one that is. In a flash, a large buck becomes victim to the hungry pack. The herd stampedes off. The alpha feeds first, then the others. After nothing is left but the fur and the bones, theyâ€™re off again.

The cougar finishes as well, dragging the rest of her prey back to her den for her hungry litter of cubs. Golden eyes, flitter by the light of the moon. The stars reflect in her enlarged pupils. She returns, little squeaks and purrs fill her ears as her cubs run up to her. 

Another creature of the night watches the caribou, from the safety of a tree. He was small, but he and his mate could easily catch a caribou together. They watched and waited, then at the right time, leapt and killed.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ What an eventful couple of days!! Last night, while human was out, she kept hearing these weird sounds. She turned around and this little orange and white cat ran and jumped into her arms! Just like that!! He was purring and rubbing up against her chin, giving headbutts and she just held him and petted him!! She noticed he had a flea collar, but no other type of identification, so she figured hed go on his way. Eventually he wanted down so she set him on the ground and continued on her walk. He trotted at her heels!! She estimated him to be about six months old. He was kinda small, about my size, and friendly and as crazy as ever!! As she went into the wooded area he still followed until the brush got thicker, then he ran ahead, jumping halfway up trees then jumping down to the next.  He followed her for along time, but then humans friend jumped out and scared them both, and the little kitty climbed a tree. Human continued on thinking he might follow, but he didnt. Human said if he woulda followed her hhome she woulda snuck him in! Wonder if we'll see him again?

Also yesterday, the Humans noticed little ribbony things in the poodles poo. She took him and a sample in today, and turns out he has a 6" tape worm in his intestinal tract. He got a pill and it should, uh, "come out" within a week or so... Yucky!! A good thing though, Human convinced Human II to get poodle neutered, so thats a plus!

Well, off to tease poodle about "the big snip." Hee Hee!! *darkside smile*

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Yes, you read it right. My day started out, with me getting a bath. Now, I've had enough to learn to tolerate them, but once the Human starts shampooing me up, I began to howl. Well, my human has slowly become accustomed to bath time to where she just hurries up and does it so she doesnt get injured. After she was finished rinsing me, she reached back for the towel, and in a split second, I was across the room pawing at the door. She grabbed me and rubbed me in a fuzzy blue towel. Needless to say, after all the water and the rubbing, I looked like a drowned rat. After her shower, she began brushing me. Now, I was already grooming myself, but any help was appreciated! Soon, I was dry and as soft as a chinchilla, which if you've never petted one of those, they feel like silk. Then, my human went into the other room, put on her shoes, and brought in my Darth Vadar costume. She came in and gave me a pep-talk. It went like this: "Alright my Chey-girl, your gonna do great!! You have to co-operate with your costume though, and with me, but you've got half of Catster rooting for you and everyone else who we know! You are panther," she said. "You can do it!" Then, she put my leash and harness on me, then my cape. She picked up the rest of my costume (the suit and helmet) and off we went! In the car, while I was looking outside, she put the suit on me. She knows I dont like my helmet, so she told me I didnt have to wear it all day. As we got out of the car a German Shepherd walked by!! He was SO pretty!! His owners were saying how absolutly adorable I was!! As we walked into Petco, a couple petted me. I was definantly getting my lovings in!! We got to where they were judging, and there was probably 30 dogs there. Only one was big though. As you know, I love big dogs but am wary of small ones. I was a good girl though, for my human. A lady was there with her chihuahua, Poopsy, and wouldnt let a little kid pet her. She began to cry. Human let the kid pet me though, and she was happy again. The Petco lady brought us to the back where Human put my helmet on me, and I got my picture taken. The Petco lady said "Wait here, I'll be right back." She left and came back with a large bag of Feline Greenies!! I love those things!! "Everyone gets a treat bag for entering!" she explained. "We werent expecting a kitty to enter so  you can have this!" Human thanked her and filled out a form, then we went back with the dogs. I was the only animal there other then dogs, but I still had fun. Once we were back with them, we went around and petted a couple. There was a golden named Packer that was dressed up as a pirate. As we were petting him, a human started talkng. "While the judges are reviewing the entries, why dont we go on a little parade?" The crowd agreed and off we went. I began to get a little restless, but my human whispered, "You are panther. You can do this Chey-Girl!" I calmed down. We were getting all kinds of comments during and after the parade, about how well-behaved I was, and how cute I was in my costume, and how soft my fur was. Then, Petco lady piped up about the winners. There was 5 ribbons and places. 5th went to a chihuahua, 4th left, 3rd was Packer, the golden!! "Second place, and Most Original Costume goes too...." she continued. "CHEYANNE!!!" Human almost dropped me!! I smiled proudly and everyone clapped as loud as they could! The Human was so proud she gave me thousands of smoochies!! Blech!! First place went to the pair of Brussels Griffons that were Spongebob and Patrick from Spongebob Squarepants. One human and her dog were dressed as angels. They gave me a feather!! Needless to say, I was a happy cat today!! And Human, I dont think shes ever been prouder of me! Now, just have too find a place too hang my ribbon. . .

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Wednesday night, human got in the mail, this ugly, hideous, nasty, disgusting PINK keyboard! IT WAS PINK FOR KATS SAKE!!!!!! GAHHH!!!! On the box it said 'indestructable.' "Oooh," I thought, "I do LOVE a good challenge." I went to work. I tried, and I tried, but it wouldn't break!!! As you probably know, Im a master of "Keyboard Killing." So I couldn't understand why this one wouldn't break!! So, I sat on the desk, with my butt on the mouse, and glared at the hideous floppy keyboard. It was an evil glare, filled with anger. How dare something <i> PINK </i> enter my lair. I finally gave up last night when my human said it was time to go to Catster. Since there was no hope of destroying the pink monster, I jumped to the top of the monitor to supervise my humans typing. After awhile I recieved an IM from Morris!! While typing, my "k" stopped working. I kept pushing the button, but nothing. Funny, how do you type your "k" key isnt working? MOL!!! Well, then my "8" stopped working. Then went the "i." I think there was a few others, but we gave up and threw the ugly keyboard back into the box. VICTORY ALAS!!!!!!

THANK YOU CATSTER IM!!!! YOU CONQUERED THE PINK KEYBOARD!!!! MY HAT GOES OFF TO YOU!!! ALSO THANK YOU MORRIS FOR CONTRIBUTING IN THE DESTRUCTION!!!!! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My human is so sad today. She heard the song that reminds her of Dallas. I purrsonally, have never met this famed K-9 my human speaks of. We both have only pictures of her now. Though my human does have a german shepherd statue that wears Dallas' collar. By lookin at it she sure was big! Wow! Oh no... that songs on again.

*sings*
Lookin' back
On the memory of,
The Dance we shared
'neath the stars above.

For a moment,
All the world was right,
How could I have known,
that you'd ever say goodbye?

And I 
Im glad I didnt know,
The way it all would end,
The way it all would go.
Our lives,
Are better left in chance,
I could've missed the pain,
but I'd of had to miss,
The Dance.

Holding you
I held everything
For a moment
Was in doubt the last

If I'd only known,
How the key would fall,
I used to say, 
How I might have changed it all,

And I 
Im glad I didnt know,
The way it all would end,
The way it all would go.
Our lives,
Are better left in chance,
I could've missed the pain,
but I'd of had to miss,
The Dance.

Its my life,
Its better left in chance.
I could've missed the pain,
But I'd had to miss,
The Dance

My human says, that her short time with Dallas, was the best year of her life. It was like a dance, to a slow song. Sadly, it didnt last long enough. She says so many great things about Dallas. I really wish I could've met her. She sounds like a great dog! 

I wonder what Dallas would think of me? I wonder if she knows who I am? (hence the title of this diary) What do you think? 

Earlier, when my human was crying with Dallas' collar in her hands, I came over to her, and put my paw on the collar and said "prrrrmeah." She giggled and put this giant collar on me!!! I walked out of it.

Silly human... Im not THAT big, am I?

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ SUPRISE!!! I didnt even know I was having kittens!! 

Heres the story!

Human left earlier and I went about my business of destroying things then took a nap. Well, Human got home today,set something down beside me, and woke me up. Well, there was a kitten sitting next to me... one green eye, one blue eye. Shes got orange fur with darker orange stripes and black stripes and a white chest.... I saw her and layed there.... STUNNED.... I thought having kittens was painful!!! AND I SLEPT THROUGH IT!!! I thought cats got fat when they had babies, but look at me!! Im skinny!! 

Well, I think somethings wrong with her.... she just sits there.... staring... kinda scary actually.... even when I brought her my favorite toy, she just sat there. I've been sniffing her from head to toe, and still, not a budge... sleeping maybe? 

What I REALLY cant figure out, is the fact that shes got a tag comin outta the back of her hind leg. Weird 'eh? 

I've been cuddling with her but she wont move.... 

HELP!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Do you know how terrible it'd be if we cats werent the kings and queens, but the humans were? Aak!! Heres a list of reasons why it would be so bad!

We'd have to change they're litter boxes!! Them humans are big creatures! Do you realise how big their poo would be??? It'd be bigger then me!!! Icky!! 

We'd also have to clip thier claws. You know how much they'd fight us? I mean, we fight hard enough the way it is!! 

We'd have to buy food for them. Have you seen how much they eat?! 

We'd have to do this thing called "work"... Aint gonna happen!! I like my lazy self just the way it is!

They'd lay on us! I couldnt take much of that!

WE'd have to pet THEM!!! Thats not gonna happen either...

We'd have to buy things for them! And oh the vet bills!! We wouldnt be waited on hand and foot. We'd have to buy things for ourselves. 

Worst of all..... WE'D HAVE TO SPOIL THEM!!! Ahhh!!

Plus then their'd be a Humanster instead of Catster. Say it isnt so!!

Im Glad We're The Royal Ones!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today has been terrible! First off, human woke up today and grabbed the nail clippers. I immeadietly shied away from her, but, well... she caught me. She held me on her lap and did the front paws. When she tried getting my back ones, I wouldnt let her. She then, flipped me onto my back and did it that way. I fussed and told her off, but she refused to listen. After that, she started playin with my toesies, and my belly!! I whined and did my "nehhhhhhmmm" sounds but she didnt listen... again.

After that she let me run around the house. I started playing in the fish tank, that got me into trouble so she locked me up in her room. I just went to sleep. Not like I really cared.

She let me out not long after. I continued my day, trying to get the squirrels, stalking the birds and a few other choice activities. I saw them fish again... the feline tv in other words. I just had to watch. I jumped on top, but instead, the top jumped on me. I got in trouble again. Locked in the bathroom. I fussed and fussed, but human payed no attention. 

After awhile she came in. She put the cup and the shampoo on the side of the tub, then grabbed two towels. Uh oh...  This couldnt be a good sign. I hid under the cubord but she caught me. She stuck me in the water and stated to pour it on me while I attempted to swim away. It wasnt deep but she was holding me back so what else could I do? 

I stood there... howling, cold, soaked, and looking like a drowned rat who hadnt groomed in years.

She then put this cold, gooey, green, stuff all over my gorgeous fur. Then she soaked me even more to get all that stuff off! Why even put it on in the first place!?!?! Aak! She started draining the tub and put me in between two big furry towels. Oooo... Warm!!!!

I stood in between those towels, shaking, big-eyed, and my fur... Oh my poor misplaced fur!! It'll take HOURS, DAYS, MONTHS to fix! As I stood there, assessing the damage, human tried drying me off. I would not stand for this. I escape from the bathroom, and told her, "I'll do it myself!" 

Humans are so cruel sometimes...

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Yesterday, we found out that one of humans friends, is getting a div....(what was that word?)...div-something-er-other. No Matter. I hear that it means they wont be married any more. Humans... why do they get married, then de-marry? Its strange. Though humans seem to have a strange nature anyway. Oh well. Why should I care? That human called me scraggley when I was a kitten. Hmpf!! Besides... Im a cat. Why do I have to know anything about it? I know, it will NEVER happen to Morris and I! I love him too much to do anything like that to him! And my love for him grows every day!!

Anyway... I got to cheer up sweet lil' Sophie yesterday!! With the story of my silly romp I had yesterday morning... heres my story I told her...

"Well. Human woke up earlier, and saw I was sleeping on my scratcher. She put her hand on my back and scared the daylights outta me. I said REOOOWWWW!!!!! Then I fell off the ledge! She had the nerve to laugh at me! Humans... Anyway, I finally got up and glared at my human. A while later I was in one of my psycho moods, and was sitting on her bed. I looked at my scratccher and litterally FLEW onto it and began to scratch feircely. Then I decided to attack the toy on it and fell off yet again. THUMP! Then after running around abit I saw myself in the mirror. I thought it was one of the strays outside, so I puffed up as big as I could get and did little side jumps. Then I attempted to attack that other cat and well...*rubs head* ...that didnt work to great!" 

Funny huh? Its true! *rubs head* Ah well. Seeing Morris yesterday, made it all better!! A million words could not describe how much I love him!! Purrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!

*Vulcan paw  signal*
Live Long & Prosper Furrends!!
I love you Morris!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Everybody has a room with the big white porcelian human-litterbowl, right? That is a very comfy thing to sit on top of by the way. 

Anyway, I usually sit up there and groom my silky fur. Today I sat up there, while the human was taking a shower. Well... my paws kinda slipped, that thing has no grip whatsoever... and I fell. Luckily I caught myself on the lid and that lever thing, so I was able to pull myself up by that. 

I pulled the lever thing and WHOOSH!!!! That scared the daylights out of me!!! I immeadatly fluffed up and took off running. I didnt notice that the door was closed however... so I ran into the door. Owie!! At that point in time, I was so freaked out that I ran frantically around the room and jumped into the shower with my human. Not a good idea. 

So then, I was getting soaked tryin to climb up the humans leg but she picked me up and put me outside the shower where I again, ran around frantically. I stayed away from the shower and the litter-bowl. I huddled up in the corner, scared, shaking, soaked, and still fluffed up. 

The human got out finally and dried me off. I feel bad cause she had scratches all over her, but she said she didn't really care. Anyway, I was still freaked out, wet shaking and fluffed out. My fur looked like I hadnt groomed it in weeks. 

She finally opened up the door and I ran, as fast as I could to my condo, jumped up to the highest ledge, and Im STILL grooming myself! 

Right now, Im de-fluffed, dry and my fur looks a little better... Nothing I would want Morris to see, thats for sure!

So, as you can see, my day has been a bit on the rough side. Poor little me. My human said she might make me some chicken later so that might help. Well, actually, she'd make a chicken sandwhich for herself, then I'll steal all the chicken. The only thing that can cure me of my bad day though, would be to spend time with Morris!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My scratching post condo came today!! The human just set it up! 

While she was setting it up, I climbed into the hide out. She had to screw something in from the inside, so she reached her hand in and I bit her! Haha! That'll teach her to stick her hand in MY post!! Then she pulled me out and screwed in the thing anyway. Oh well, there were plenty of new things to investigate anyway, not to mention a HUGE box to play in! 

After it was up, she put me in the bed on top. Boy is it high up there! I could bonk my head on the ceiling if I wanted! I looked around for awhile and explored the bed. I decided it was pretty cool  up there but I wanted down anyway. I looked over the side of the bed and well, the ledge below that is pretty small, so I used it as a step instead. I leaned over with my claws dug in and tried to get onto that ledge. Two of my paws made it so I used it as a bouncing board. So BOING! I leapt to the ground!

After that, the human had to move it where she wanted it in the corner. She then rubbed some catnip on a few places. Of course, I wanted some so she lured me onto the second highest ledge and gave me some, then back into the top where the bed is and gave me some. Its hard to get onto that bed so she helped me. After my 'nip, I made a flying leap onto her bed and took off running.

That was my first romp on my first ever post! Im not quite sure what to think of it yet. My human says Im spoiled, but I disagree. Im not fruit! I dont spoil! Oh well. She says that this post is proof of it all, along with my new jeweled collar, its pepsi-can blue!!! My favorite! Its got a little bell on it so she gave me a new nickname, "Jingle Bells." 

Anyway, I'll give you an idea of what it looks like. Its black and gray. It has 6 ledges with faux fur on them. Theres 6 posts with carpet on them, and another with sissel rope on it. Theres a hideout that has faux fur on the outside and the inside! I like that! It has a hanging sissel thing for my daily scratcher-cises. It also has hanging sissel balls to play with! Its got a spinning scratcher wheel with sissel rope on it and one of the ledges are squishy!! On the very top is a bed thats hard to get to, but I'll figure it out!

Well, thats my scratcher and my first romp, thanks for reading!! You all rock!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Well June 14th was my birthday. Im 2 years old now. I feel so old. So wise. The horror. I can actually say now something like "You know, back in my day, we didnt have those fancy-smancy scratcher sofas. All we had was simple posts... or something belonging to the humans!" 

It feels strange to be getting wiser. As the days go by, my words get bigger. Though Im not a big cat myself. I begin to understand things that people have told me in the past I thought I'd never understand. Its kinda annoying. I love being my kitten self. 

I joked with the humans, since Im so destructive already, I told her Im just getting started cause now Im in the "terrible twos!!" However, I seem to be sleeping more, and playing less. Hmmm... Maybe Im just sleeping off the birthday treats and catnip!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ How dare she!!! Mom is almost more evil then me! How dare she give the royal Cheyanne a bath! Aak! She had to hold me by the scruff of my neck (which does NOT hurt a cat or she wouldnt do it) to avoid getting her arm ripped off. I was all wet and then she put this gooey white crap all over me and thats when I began yowling. THEN I got even MORE wet! Aak!!! Then she attempted drying me off! I ran and did it myself! Hmph!!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Recently I've been creating chaos throughout the entire house. Quite fun if you ask me... however the others may disagree with me. Hehehe!! First off I ran through the house as usual but then, since I was going crazy anyway, I happened to set my mind on catching them birds. Their cage is on the counter so first, not being very good at high jumps, I jumped on the chair, then the table, and finnaly the counter. Well the birds were already freaking out, they must've anticipated what I was doing. Annoyed, I leaped onto the cage and didnt quite make it to the top. It began... The cage came hurdeling down to the ground, the birds squaked, the dogs barked and just as I was about to run, I look up and theirs mom. "Uh Oh," I think to myself. She yells "Cheyanne! Now why'd you go and do a stupid thing like that?!" Before I could run, which believe me I tried, she picked me up and locked me in the bathroom until she cleaned the mess. Who did she think she was to pick up a cat as royal as me and lock her in the bathroom?! How dare she! Then I thought up my plan... She shall pay!! First I ran on the  shelves and knocked down everything! When she lat me out I jumped on top of the fish tank in a streak of lightning and the top fell on me... but I didnt care... all I cared about at that point in time was my sweet revenge! Then I scratched on the bed, played with the light and then she captured me. However my need for revenge was fulfilled. I turned into "miss purrybutt" once more.]]></content:encoded>
