Hear ye, hear ye!
Cassie here. My meowmom is tired of cold and snow and wants to have a party. We figure that the inauguration of a President is a good occasion. Since there are already a number of inauguration balls and dances planned, we decided to add one more. So, all the kitties and people out there, please come to a winter soirée in Chicago on January 20th. Black tie optional, fur coats probably necessary. My meowmom said that even if your person didn't vote for the incoming Prez, come anyway because your person either voted or knew of someone who did. We might have had different opinions on who would have been best for the next President but we can still celebrate that as a country everyone got a chance to vote for whoever they preferred. The process worked again. Meowmom said she would have the caterer serve chicken, fish and catnip for us.

Purrs, headbumpies and loves,
Cassie

Oh Yay! Calvin & Hobbes would very much like to attend. We were planning to celebrate here in SF anyway! We have our red, white and blue bow ties pressed and ready. :p We will book our flight today! Cheers to Hope and Change!

Filou and Tigris want to know whether Europeans can come too? After all they were looking for a change as well ;)
(Even if the new president seems to be a dog person).

Plus they wonder if there will be Chicago deep dish pizza for the celebration.

Capital idea!

My name is Pinot Noir (little Miss Noir to Dad) - so guess what I'll bring! :D I'm very fond of cheese (but never get it), so pizza sounds great!
My parents & I are looking forward to HOPE & CHANGE (& possibly dignity) ourselves!

cheers all!

What a lovely idea! Samantha, Daisy and Jessica have never been to the inauguration of a President. It sounds very grand. I am sure that they would love Chicago.

Tabby and Sasha would like to attend also. Since we aren't too far from Chicago (maybe a couple of hours drive) I have told them that they can take the car and drive themselves. I will spring for the gas money. ;)

Tabby would like to know how late the party will go. She is 20, so an early evening for her may be necessary.

Both are excited about the fish! They LOVE tuna!

Looking forward to the fun!

Meowmom ordered deep dish from Pizzeria Uno. She likes their pizza for its crust (we think they use part corn meal in the recipe) and I like it because she always gives me a little piece without sauce on it. I told her we must have fish and chicken.

Don Juan and Zerlina will attend, if they can take their special message to the new President.

You don't think Don Juan's suit is a little loud for a formal occasion, do you? Zerlina will wear her basic black, of course.

Don't worry, Pinot. There's plenty of room and plenty of food for the trip. Your seat in the hybrid Catmobile is ready for you!

Oh Inka, How can I make such a choice? You are beautiful no matter what you decide to wear! Whatever you decide will make you the Belle of the Ball!

Zazou, Meowmie and I love your great look!!!! And of course there's a place for you in the Catmobile...right next to Pinot.

Snoopy, You and Meowmie are of the same mindset. Her idea of being dressed up is wearing clean jeans and in this cold weather a clean sweatshirt.

Your friend, Groucho

The Catmobile carries a few extra cell phones as well as an outlet to keep them charged and working properly. I don't want any Meowmies to worry!

Because of very bad weather today, we are waiting for a few more kitties to arrive. Flight delays and dangerous roads are slowing us down a bit. Our very careful Catmobile driver is on the phone for up-to-the-second conditions and expects we'll be by for your crew shortly.

Miss Kirsten: As always Luna and Lily are wonderful company and are behaving like the perfect ladies that they are. They're even helping to care for some of the younger kitties.

All of us are having a super time. Everyone sends purrs and kitty kisses to their purrents! :love: :love: !

Hi fellow purrents!

Well, our furkids arrived safe and sound and are having a blast feasting and partying. All kitties are toasty warm and on their best behavior. The last I heard from Groucho and Inka, the group was heading out for dinner and from there they plan to dance the Alley Cat well into the night. Eve found herself a very warm blanket, Pinot loved being the co-pilot in the Catmobile for a short while, Filou and Tigris are wonderful dancers, Lily and Luna have impressed everyone with their necklaces, HH Lady Edwina outdid the new first lady in the fashion department (but we knew that!). The group is staying together so nobody gets lost and they hope to meet with the first family and convince them to go with a cute kitty rather than a dog. No word on when they'll be heading home. Sounds like a good time is being had by all!
Have any of you heard from your furkids?

Edwina's Secretary

I hear that Eddie caused a sensation at the Ball later with his short-sleeved tux. And the ladies - dripping in jewellery!
My girls were strangely quiet about what they wore. I do hope they didn't get out that old standby.

National dress wasn't expected at this Ball, was it?

I HERAD THAT THE ROMANTIC DINNERS WENT WELL, AND THAT ALL OUR PETS AND THE ANIMAL ANGELS WERE WEARING COWBOY GEAR , AND YAHOOING IT UP, AND DANCING THE NIGHT AWAY!!!:love::love:
THEY LOVED THE STEAKS, AND THERE WAS A GREAT SALAD BAR FOR THE HERBIVEROUS ANGELS:love::love:
THEN THEY ALL HIT A BEDDING STORE AND SNOOZED BEFORE HEADING EITHER HOME IN THE CASE OF OUR PETS, OR TO TAHITI FOR THE ANIMAL ANGEL ARMY.:):):)

Well, Pinot has checked in, she's posted on the Valentine's thread! She had a wonderful time with her new PT friends and evidently co-piloting the Catmobile was a great thrill! Thanks a bunch all! :D

Eddie was hoping his attire would win him at least ONE dance with one of the Delicious Lasses from Killearn!

I'm so sorry that Tigris didn't have a mobile to send a picture of him and Eve waltzing. He said he'd prefer her grey and white striped gown to anything he saw at the ball ;)

Please tell Tigris that Eve is evermore smitten after the Ball :love: she came home completely exhausted, chattering a blue streak about dancing her paws off and with a smile so large, it was contagious :D She is resting comfortably and dreaming the sweetest dreams :D:love::D

Thank you Groucho and Momcat for taking such good care of our babies and for giving them a historic moment to remember:)

My girls are back - tired, but exhausted! Obviously, they had a lot of fun to meet all their fellow PT kitties, and they enjoyed all the good food. There's no doubt they are proud that they were part of that historical event.

My girls have finally woken up. Oh, the time they had! Flights, riding in the catmobile, the big ceremony, all the food, tripping the light fantastic, and Eddie! What a mover. He danced with mummy Jessica first, and then the girls. So gallant. :love:

They had a wonderful time and can't wait to see their PT pals again.

Groucho has talked of nothing but the trip, in between naps of course. He's so happy that everyone had such a good time. Groucho says arriving with the international contingent made the events even more memorable.

Since his fellow kitties enjoyed the eco-friendly Catmobile so much, he's considering a trip to Tampa for the Superbowl. More about that when he can stay awake long enough to contact all of his kitty pals!

Cassie wants to know when we are having everyone to Chicago again! I told her maybe when it's not so gosh-darn COLD out!

Tampa for the Super Bowl.. my gosh! They are still resting up from their whirlwind time in Chicago.

They all want to book their Catmobile seats right away, so please put them on the list.
