[krazyaboutkatz]

Hi everyone. :D I'm finally going to post some of the better pics from the L.A. Pet Talk Meeting at Gini's house. I had a great time and it was also great to finally meet everyone. I hope that this will become an annual event and become bigger and better each year. Here are some pics.

This pic cracks me up. Richard's expression is too funny. :D He's pretending to be me and I have Mr. Fish in my pocket. :)

Here's a puppy that Gini's neighbors were watching for the weekend. She had gotten into their water fountain and was all wet. :)

Here she is again playing tug or war. :)

That's all. I hope you liked them. :)

[apcrs5122]

Wonderful pics!!!! I loved them!:D

[micki76]

Fantastic pics! So strange to try to remember which face went with who as I was looking at your pics. :)

[NoahsMommy]

Those are great Tracey! :)

Miss Meow...even though I'm allergic to alcohol, I tried just a tiny sip of the champagne. It was so, so good!!! Thanks so much for your kind thoughtfulness. :D

[wolflady]

Thanks for posting these, KAK!! I was able to relive that weekend! It was so much fun, and I agree, this is a must have event every year! I cracked up at the pic of you and Richard! LOL ;)
Thanks for sending the champagne, Miss Meow! That was so sweet! We all had a good time with it! ;) :D

[AmberLee]

Wow! It looks like you guys had a marvelous time. So glad! Yes, I hope this does become an annual event.

[iceyshiver21]

HEHEHe!!! I think i had too much fun looking at these pics!!!!! Even though I wasn't there...it looked LIKE SOOOO MUCH FUN!!!

[Miss Meow]

More great pics! My cats are envious of the vase of cat toys in the Tracey and Richard pic ;)

There are some left and I see that they have name tags. One says Mini, another Jasmine, yet another says Pickles and last but not least another says Tabasco.

Wait, there are more, they say what - let me get my glasses, YUP it says K'Cee on it.

[gini]

Tracey, thanks for posting your great pictures. It was fun for me to relive the weekend too.

Yes, I definitely think this must become an Annual event. And next year maybe we can talk Miss Meow and Shane to join us as well as more Pet Talkers.

Sorry about the blocks, my set only comes with two "e's" and I had to fill in the blanks and let you use your imagination.

There is yet another funny story to share with you all about Mr. Fish.......it just won't stop!

He will return soon .....watch for him!;) ;)

[ChloeLove]

Awesome pics! You all looked so happy to be there! (Who wouldn't?) ;)

[Sara luvs her Tinky]

GREAT PICTURES!!!!

Looks like you guys had so much fun!!!!! Maybe one day I'll get to meet some pet talkers.!!!:D

[KYS]

Loved all the pictures, and it was great how
you have signs with everyones names/Pet
Talk names. :)

[Pam]

Oh I am jealous, jealous, jealous! All of those neat Pet Talkers in one place! I feel like I know each one of you through your posts and it's so nice to put a face with a name!! I think this is the first time I have "met" AntiPam, and of course "meeting" Richard must have been so much fun. (Is he as funny in person? LOL!) Oh how I wish California was just a little closer!!!! LOL! Laurie you are so lucky. You probably win the prize for most Pet Talk meetings attended! Couldn't you all just fly east for the next one? :D

PS: Laurie, what did you do to your arm???

Is that a real kitty next to Karen? It looks like it could be a photo or something? :confused:

[shais_mom]

Great PICS!
Looks like everyone had a great time!

[Logan]

I have enjoyed the stories and pictures of the California Pet Talk meeting so much! The only thing I hate (well, two things) is that Lut wasn't able to be there :( and I wasn't able to be there either! :o

Thanks so much for sharing that fun time with the rest of us! You are all so happy in all the pictures and it looks like Gini and Rascal are perfect hosts!!!!! :)

One day, Gini............. (hopefully).

Logan

I went to a Craft Show is Santa Monica a year or so ago. I discovered a woman who makes metal sculptures. Her stuff is just great - Lady Bugs - butterflies on poles to put around your yard - and she had this cat.

She guaranteed if I just put him outside (he's on the picnic table) that in time the weather would rust him orange. He looks really fun with the light shining through his eyes.

That is what you are seeing Pam.

[Pam]

Thanks for the explanation Gini! I knew it couldn't be Rascal! LOL! What a neat thing to have! I have so many decorative kitty things around, including a sign outside my front door on which I have stenciled an orange cat and a white cat. I would take a picture of it and post it, but it contains my address and this is the internet! LOL! (PS - the dogs are in a huff that two kitties are welcoming people into this house! LOL)

[ScantyNebula]

So thats what you guys look like!! hehe its always fun to see what PetTalkers look like after reading so much about them from their posts - Great pics!! Looked like a blast!
