They can come into Philadelphia Airport and the Catmobile will be there waiting for them. Just have them call Pinot or me on our cell phones to let us know about what time they expect to arrive.

Okay fellow kitties, turn your cell phones on! The Catmobile is leaving Trenton for our annual trip to the Kentucky Derby. We'll call you when we get to your neighborhood.
There are plenty of tasty snacks, soft pillows, and warm blankets. Plus, we can now watch Animal Planet on high def tv.
And now for a big surprise from Soncat.....cheezburgers for everyone!!!!!!
We're on our way, see you very soon!
Your friend,
Groucho
There is another surprise coming kitties - I'll give you only one little hint...it has to do with a cooking show my Meowmie watches! Stay tuned!! ;)
See you soon,
Purrs,
Pinot
We're HERE! It's been so special already! Yesterday was so exciiting - the Kentucky Oaks (congratulations Blind Luck!) with all us lady kitties decked out in pink for the cause! Did we make a site?? Dean's Kitten and American Lion have been wonderful hosts. They've given the traditional tour (including some secret spots not shown to us last year), and made us very welcome. They were duly impressed with the Catmobile! It's so great to see all the kitties again, and my sweetheart Roco! :love:
I can finally reveal the other surprise - the all star chefs from TOP CHEF are here! They cooked a wonderful meal last night and were very gracious. We have had such wonderful food! All the treats from the Catmobile, then a Top Chef meal? Such a life!
I'm sure all the other kitties will check in, don't worry Meowmies and Dads, we're having a great time and are perfect kitties. We couldn't be anything else here; they wouldn't have it at the Derby!! I'll report after the big race! Go American Lion and Dean's Kitten!!:D
And the Siamese Six Pack and Ebony Beau Tubster are packing a Tex Mex Picnic from Poco Loco with Tostadas , Fajitas , Burritos, Taco , Nachos and Bottled Water , Frappes , Salsa Chips and Stoney Creek Dairy Ice Cream!!
Por Comidads Delicioso , Vaya Poco Loco!!!:love::love::love:
Received a text from Cassie this morning before church...
Meowm
I had tuna fish for supper
And you didn't, ha haa
Lubz,
Cassie
Well, our favorites and hosts Dean's Kitten and American Lion didn't place, but they tried hard!! What a weekend!! Congratulations Super Saver!
We're still here at the Churchill Downs taking in some sights and discussing the future plans of our horsey friends. Some will continue in the Triple Crown; some have other things to do. We'll cheer them on no matter what! :)
Just a quick check in - we're all fine, we ladies are shopping this afternoon while the boys have some sporting events planned. We'll be back in the Catmobile on to the next destination soon!! :)
Hi Purrents,
All is well here and everyone is so full! Soncat's cheezburgers were a big hit. The chefs really spoiled us with dinners so wonderful we may never eat our regular cat food again! A group of our lady cats led by Pinot and Cassie talked to them about marketing a line of gourmet meow chow. The girls won't tell us guys what they said. Time to go, we're meeting in the Catmobile to decide what's next on our agenda. See you soon!
Your friend,
Groucho
Let's see.. soon it's off to Canada for Victoria Day (May 24).. and a week later back to the U S of A for Memorial Day (May 31)...
Groucho called a little while ago. He said there will be a quick stop here at Risoldi's grocery store in Trenton. Our kitty crew has been following the tragic situation along the Gulf Coast. Groucho said they plan to pick up several bottles of Dawn dish soap then head down there to help give their fellow animals in need some nice warm baths in Dawn to clean the oil off of them.
For those of you who haven't seen the post in General, Dawn is very effective in cleaning animals caught in oil slicks AND they donate $1 to animal rescue for every bottle sold. I hope you'll consider this great product when shopping.
Momcat, if the kitties clear the supermarket shelves, I know the Brookhaven Fresh Market right by my house carries Dawn in blue, original scent and orange, which I think is citrus. I usually just get the blue. I could pick it up and have it ready if Catmobile is traveling to the Gulf Coast via the Midwest.
Kitties, that is a very nice thing you are doing before the Preakness. Lots of creatures depend on the Gulf Coast environment for their survival.
Hi Elyse, When our kiities are on the loose in the Catmobile there's no telling where they're heading. I'll send a text message (just as soon as I figure out how) to Groucho, Cassie, and Pinot to let them know they can get a back-up supply of Dawn from you.
Being an animal lover and a concerned environmentalist, I find the tragedy in the Gulf simply heart breaking. This is why I'm trying to get the word out that not only is Dawn an excellent product, but the $1 per bottle donation to wildlife rescue is admirable and deserves our support.
Dispatch from the Catberry mobile...
Hello Meowmies and Dads! We picked up all the Dawn (you may notice it missing) and swung down to the Gulf. Really a tragedy, trying to help, everyone doing what they can. This will be a quick stop; tomorrow we head up to the Preakness at my place. Mom reports everything's ready there for all the kitties, Dad made fresh crabcakes for when we get there, my rec room in the basement has been prepped! Report back soon....
Purrs,
Pinot
Well all the kitties are here and they are having such a time! They went to the Hilltop Stakes at Pimlico today and cheered on the winner Joharmony. Pimlico, for the uninitiated purrents, is the home of the Preakness. It was another Pink day in honor of the breast cancer benefit on Black Eyed Susan Day at the track. The girls all looked lovely! :)
Some top contenders in the race that have been so wonderful to our kitties are Super Saver (Derby Winner), Paddy O'Prado and Lookin' at Lucky. They've been great hosts!
I'm sure the kitties will check in with their take on things, but I just wanted to make sure you all knew they arrived safely and were well fed!:)
Oh dear......
Merlin just saw this thread.....I think he might be interested in the next adventure. He hasn't been with me a week and now he wants to pack and go on trip. :rolleyes::cool:
He's actually asked me for his own laptop so he can keep track of Pet Talk. :o
Slick,I believe you have been misled by Merlin...There is a pick up arranged for Victoria weekend....at least that's the rumour...
I had a text from Cassie Cat:
Hi Meowm...
Could you please go to Costco and get some more Dawn for us? I think we're going to need it, so please get the biggest bottle.
Also, could you please plant some black-eyed Susans by my catnip? They are so pretty! When I look at them I'll remember what a fun time I had with my friends!
I am eating crab and you are not, ha haa.
Lubz,
Cassie
Has anyone heard from the kitties this afternoon? They must be at the post-race parties with their horsey friends.
Dispatch from Pinot's Catberry Mobile this afternoon...
What a day! One of our hosts, Lookin' at Lucky, came away with the win! The menu at Pimlico was all seafood, so we were very happy kitties, the grandstand seats rocked!
Note from Mom...
The kitties are now settled into Pinot's rec room downstairs. They have been well fed and are gossiping about the day; I don't know when they'll go to sleep! They were at a party after the race until about 9:30 or so. I'll find out the plan for tomorrow in the morning. All is well!:)
Hi Merlin, You'll be more than welcome to come along on the next Catmobile trip. Every kitty is welcome and they always have a super time. Plus there's a code the kitties strictly adhere to...what happens on the Catmobile stays on the Catmobile. I'll get a message to Groucho and Pinot so you can be picked up for the next part of the trip. Do you have a cell phone where they can contact you?
shhhh....there's been a plot afoot ............
Merlin's in the Catmobile, the kitties have been very, very quiet about this!
Catada weekend - WE ARE THERE!!:D:D
Had a text from Cassie:
Hi Meowm!
We are all fine. Did you plant the black-eyed Susans like I asked for?
We have a new member of the group - his name is Merlin and he is very good with linen closet management. He fits in really well with the other orangeys and all of us Catmobile Kitties!
I am going to Catada for the weekend and you are not, ha haa. I will bring you a maple leaf.
Lubz,
Cassie
Well, I don't know how that little guy slipped away from me but yesterday I came home to a message on my answering machine:
I do like my new home Meowmie but when I read about the Catmobile, I couldn't resist. Shhhh, don't tell anyone, but I spot some pretty looking ladies here - maybe I can find my true love.:love:
Oops, gotta go Meowmie, there calling me and I smell chicken
I'll call you from my next stop and Meowmie, maybe you could get me a Iphone so I could text you........ You'd buy anything for me wouldn't you?? Love you.
...and that was it. I don't know what they have planned for this weekend but I'm sure Merlin will be a good boy indeed.
Hey Merlin.
Theres a Great Place we go to called the Angel's Diner for Breakfast!!!:cool::cool:
Lots of Hot Food and Cool Rock and Roll!;):)
Then there the King's Buffet for Lunch.:cool::cool:

The Found Cats , Porch Cats and Angels.:love::love:
Dispatch from the Catberry Mobile....
All is well...Merlin has found true love...parties are great...love you Meowmie!
From the Catmobile:
Victoria Day was a blast! Those Catada kitties know how to have a good time! Merlin really charmed everyone; he and Sparkler were dancing the night away! Cassie was her regular cut-up self (I wonder what she texted her Mom this time!), my sweetheart Roco was his gentlemanly self.:love: Groucho, of course, has been our wonderful guide!
Down to the Gulf we go! We'll be swinging through for some more supplies, down to the Gulf, spend Memorial Day in New Orleans and then home. Home soon, Meowmie!! :)
Purrs,
Pinot
From what I understand....you should SEE those two together! ;)
Well, I don't know how anyone thought they were going to keep those two beautiful orange and white kitties away from each other! ;)
Kitties are fine - they're at the Gulf, trying to help some pelican friends:(.
They'll be in New Orleans on Saturday morning, then home Monday night.
