Once again, my gang are all getting ready for the big shebang!
Okay fellow travellers,
We have the eco friendly hybrid Catmobile from July 16 to July 22. The local Jaguar dealer said she would love to join us since we take such fun trips but she understands it's just for kitties. I recommended she go to the local no kill shelter and let a poor, homeless kitty adopt her. Then her kitty companion will be more than welcome to join in.
For those of you who haven't yet checked in, please contact Pinot or me as soon as possible. There are plans to be made. Pinot needs to know who will be coming so that everyone has a ride. For airline kitties, we need to know what airport you're coming into. For kitties who don't like to fly, the Amtrack stops right here in Trenton just a few blocks from my place.
Your friend,
Groucho
Paws up for July 1-4 AND for a visit to the New Jersey equestrian center!
Purrrrrs,
Cassie
Hi Pinot!
Just checking in to see how plans are coming with the Catmobile driver. Inka will be coming and is excited about going to the Horsepark. Right now I'm waiting to hear from Mine That Bird. He said he would talk to the other horses about coming for the weekend and call you or me for details. I hope to hear from you soon!
Your friend,
Groucho
Pinot has spoken with Summer Bird (who of course has Mine that Bird's ear) and rumor has it Preakness winner Rachael Alexandra may be able to fit a visit into her busy schedule, but we'll have to see.:)
Check in kitties-it's going to be exciting!:D
Groucho, is everything as planned? We haven't heard from you....please call or post!
I'm feeling better after the ill effects of my shot. Talk to you soon!
:love:
Pinot
Hi Pinot! I stopped by the Jaguar dealer this afternoon and everything is a go for our trip to the Horsepark. Do you know how many of the horsies are coming? I'm going to meet with the stable manager this weekend to finalize our plans. He needs to know about the horsies so he can arrange their transportation and order enough sweet feed for them. Meowmie has ordered the fried chicken and crab legs for us so we're set on that part.Quote:

I'll be in touch with you when I get back from the Horsepark.
Your friend,

Nice to hear from you Groucho! Fried Chicken, huh? Sounds like I'll be off my diet!! I lost a whole pound, though, I'm down to 11! Meowmie and vet are happy about that! I had a shot called "distemper" - it made me really sick :p but I'm better now. Meowmie says I won't have to have that again.
On to the horsies; Flying Private, Mine that Bird, Summer Bird, Rachel Alexandra, Pioneer of the Nile and Friesan Fire are confirmed for the party.:) They're the real party animals who gave us such a good time!
Thanks for arranging this! See you soon!

Hi Pinot and fellow kitties.
This is the first chance I've had to post in. Meowmie went on a major cleaning binge today so I had to supervise and make sure what went in the trash really belonged there. Poor Soncat had to move things and kept getting sent to the store. After all that, Meowmie still isn't finished!
I did get to the Horsepark yesterday and everything is set. There will be sleeping arrangements in one of the barns for us plus a very nice area set aside for those of us who want to camp out. Transportation for our horsie friends will be leaving the morning of July 16 and our guests are expected to arrive the next afternoon. The Catmobile will be here July 15 so we can get an early start on July 16 and get the welcome party ready for when the horsies arrive. I'm waiting to hear from Inka about when she'll be getting in.
There's still plenty of room for anyone else who wants to come so let Pinot or me know. Will anyone be coming in on the Amtrack train? Okay fellow kitties, finish packing and charge your cell phones! See you in a few more days :cool:
Your friend,
Groucho
OK - here's the plan! The Catmobile leaves Groucho's place early on the 16th - we should all be packed and ready to get picked up on that day. It will touch down at the horsey park late (really late) on the night of the 16th; we'll get a good night's sleep in the barn and wake up early on the 17th to make sure all arrangements are made for our horsey friends' reception. :D There will be a big reception on Friday night, followed by two days of fun in the Horsey Park on Saturday and Sunday. Monday will be left open for relaxing and making sure we've left our host site spotless.
We'll be there until Tuesday morning, the 21st, when we head for the shore. The Horses will have their own transportation, so they'll still be with us, but not IN the Catmobile! We'll spend a day in the sun and surf on the 22nd, Edwina will get to show off her beach fashions, then we head to Chicago for the Venetian night festivities! Plans for that trip are in the other thread!
See you soon, kitties!
:love:
Pinot the co-pilot
Great news, Pinot and fellow kitties, we have an extension on the Catmobile! It doesn't have to be back at the local Jaguar dealer until July 27!!!!!! That gives us a bit more time to relax and do some sightseeing. The dealer called me earlier to say she couldn't get a gondola for us but I thanked her for trying, it was very thoughtful of her.
As for the Horsepark, all we have to do is arrive. Since horsies like veggies and fruit, there will be a huge salad waiting for them. Unfortunately they could get very sick if they share our food. Plus, rumor has it that there will be a big bonfire Saturday night complete with music for dancing. The bonfire will be carefully watched and tended by Horsepark staff to ensure our safety. Then on to Chicago for more fun ;)
We seem to be having a problem with our computer so it may be necessary to contact you by cell phone. Everyone coming, please be sure to check in with Pinot to make sure you will be picked up.
This is going to be a dynamite trip! See all of you in a few more days!
Your friend,
Groucho
PS: Sparkler, don't worry about that. It's all taken care of.
Ready kitties? The Catmobile takes off early tomorrow! Make sure your seat is reserved! It's gonna be a blast! :D
See you soon!
Pinot
We're all packed and ready to go and PARRRRTEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Momcat, Cassie is disappointed that she won't get to share her tuna with the horsies. I reminded her what you said about them getting sick if they share the cats' meal. She is ready to have fun with the horsies and then come back to Chicago for Venetian Night!
