It's almost too hot to blog but
Taboo wouldn't want to miss out
on a chance to be with friends at

Friday Ark

Carnival of the Cats hosted by The Scratching Post

the cool cats at eatstuff's Weekend Cat Blogging.

Blog Name Change...

I'm thinking Jelly Elastic Loaf has a coolness factor of about a minus 43.

Portrait of a Patriot, Part 2...

Watch Colbert on YouTube making fun
of morning news for mocking his show.

Why the Planet is Worth Saving...

As I began to clean up after making yesterday's lunch sandwich, I was reminded of that eternal question asked by Isaac Davis, in
Woody Allen's masterpiece Manhattan:
"Why is life worth living?"

I looked at the leftovers & nearly sobbed at their simple beauty, wondering how it's come to this sped-up destruction of life by the living. Is there truly not enough to go around fairly?

Turn off cable news' war porn, make a tomato sandwich and watch Manhattan. Care about making the planet safe again
for kittens and other living things.

Peas and berry much love.
Potere tutti i raccolti sono abbondantementi!

Down The Rabbit Hole...

...hoping it's not too late for a very important date at Friday Ark.


Don't forget Sunday to mosey on over to Creatures of the Earth who will be hosting
the next Carnival of the Cats.


And stop by eatstuff, too, to welcome back Clare
at Weekend Cat Blogging.
Wouldn't Kiri look cute in a red sweater? We can dream, at least!


Last but not least, the cats of the Middle East love and need peace, and urge you to remember that war is not good for kittens and other living things.


Maggio i bambini del mondo hanno sogni dolci di pace.

12-step Program Needed...

Caught red-pawed with the evidence [see yellow arrow] this beloved pet [who shall, in the tradition of 12-step programs everywhere, remain anonymous and have her identity hidden] used the worn-out, eyebrow-raising claim that it was medicinal organic catnip.

Yeah, right...as if I was born yesterday.

Let's see if the folks at

Friday Ark,

Carnival of the Cats
[hosted this week by Musings],

and hopefully soon

Weekend Cat Blogging
[please feel better - your fans are concerned,
but SweetSarahJ is helping out!]

can spot a hopeless addict who needs to get into Organics Anonymous before she bankrupts her humans with this wretched habit. She could at least economize with home grown!

Where's Taboo?

The Well Camouflaged Cat
has found her perfect palette!
