Catmobile Kitties "Krewe" at Mardi Gras

[Laura's Babies]

I have just returned from dropping the girls off at the catmobile and they are MOST excited about the Zulu parade.. Giz's main thing is she wants one of those famous Zulu coconuts! She has a big sack to put it in and does not plan to share her prized catch if she gets one.

It will be a long exciting day for all but I will have to wait until I get back in March to read all the reports on how much fun they had and WHAT if any problems they had, WHO got into trouble... I will be picking up my girls tonight when they shut the party down, bring them home then head out to catch my boat.

Groucho just checked in and says our kitties are having a wonderful time! Everyone is quite comfortable in the Catmobile between an ample supply of tasty food, soft pillows and warm blankets. His favorite part so far was hearing Dr. John sing Iko Iko. All of our revelers are getting along well, watching out for each other, and on their very best behavior. Lady Edwina said the Catmobile Krewe got themselves a primo parking spot. Hmm, no word about when our babies plan to head home.....

My girls are going to be so happy that they got to see Dr. John and heard their fav song.. Darn! I got a text message from them saying they were going to see the Doctor and I thought they meant the white coats and have been worried to death that someone was sick or got hit with a Zulu Coconut this morning! PHEW!! Why couldn't they have just said Dr John!!??

I think for Mardi Gras they come through the French Quarter with fire hoses and run everybofy off at Midnight but I am hoping the Catmobile will just sit tight and let all those who have drank to much get home and off the highways before they start leaving there. That will give them time to rehash the day, swap phone numbers and addresses and get to know one another better... OR get some sleep and rest so they will be wired when they get home wanting to show off their throws and repete the days activities. I just HOPE nobodys paws got stomped when reaching for that favorite throw that landed on the ground... THAT HURTS!

All I got was a picture from Pinot late last evening. She's not telling me when they're coming back - I think they're having too good of a time - still! I'll update when I can...

That looks great to me, and The Found Cats are taking ME on My First Official Trip as a Found Cat.
And My Very Own Grand Dad Tubby 2 Angels is going to show me where All the Best Places to eat are.
This is a Cood Year for an Ex Porch Cat!!!

Ebony T., there is no better city to overeat in than New Orleans. Enjoy!

I know Laura won't see this until she gets back, but I wanted to post a report texted from Pinot & the gang, who are all en route home.

Princess Lily was supposed to bring home Laura's King cake with some coffee & beignets from Cafe du Monde - there seems to have been some kind of "accident" and the food had to be disposed of immediately ... hmmm

Pinot's sweetheart Roco and the lvpets2002 gang were a big hit with the crawfish treats they brought along! Thank you!

Laura's Amy was a big hit at the Dr. John show; she showed everyone the dance moves! This was especially appreciated by the twinkle toed Eddie and the ladies from Killearn who danced the night away!

Lady Edwina, of course, gave all kinds of fashion tips to the girls - can't wear too much of the beads, you know, it's just too gaudy!

Eve and the Found Cats seem to have been up to something, but that text got a little ...MURKY... on purpose? We'll see...

Sparkler got VERY FRIENDLY with one of her kitty guards!

Well, that's what I have for you. I'm sure we'll all hear the rest of the stories when they get home. All will arrive at their front doors very soon! I have told Pinot she's taking some time off when she gets back - she needs a rest after this winter!

What is Cassie doing after the trip to NOLA? Resting!

[Edwina's Secretary]

Just like Cassie...


Edwina and Eddie arrived home.....Exhausted!!!!


When they awake I look forward to the stories they are willing to share!

[phesina]

My gang just crashed right out after they got home.



I'm hoping to learn from Sparkler just what went on and WHAT she was doing with WHOM!!




Bobby danced the night away with his beloved Amy, and he is sleeping now, enjoying sweet dreams.
