Hello All,
Jasmine here. This is my first time hosting a linky party and I’m quite excited. The photo to the left is of me waiting for the guests to show up for the party and then Alberto told me it’s a virtual party and that no real guests actually show up. Sheesh, then why do they call it a party and get a cat all excited for company and treats?
Oh well, it’s still cool being a host and I got to choose my three top picks from the last party . Enjoy!
My picks from the last Linky Party:
I must admit, I do have a bit of admiration for canines that can find stuff just by sniffing it out. We felines like to sniff stuff too but we rarely act upon any scents we discover unless it’s particularly stinky food, then we eat it. Luke here is pretty smart and his human is teaching him how to find the scented thing. Who knew you could train a dog’s nose?
Travel with Barley – The Longest Days
This is a wonderful story about a female human who could not let a dog with many special needs go without help. It’s also the story of fostering (something my humans were a miserable failure at and why we now have Alberto and Oliver in our house…but that’s a story for another time.) Anyway, how she works with this underweight and frightened dog warms my paws and it makes me happy to know that there are humans who would work so hard to help a dog or cat become the best they can be and ready for a fur-ever home.
Five Sibes – The Groomer Man Cometh
I must say that reading this post made me realize that canines and felines have a lot in common when it comes to being groomed. First thing-we don’t like it. Second thing-dogs get “paw-dicures” too, who knew? I know our humans gripe about the amount of fur The Tribe of Five leave around the house but after seeing the photo on the left (enough fur to make another dog) I believe my humans should be thanking their lucky stars that they have felines and not Siberian Huskies in the house!

Our humans are very purrrticular when it comes to feeding us. As a matter of fact, the male human won’t let the female human select a new organic and healthy food for us without consulting him (he’s our official feline dietitian) . It isn’t easy for the humans to know if they’re making the best food choices for us. We’re no help, as far as we’re concerned, the nastier and stinkier the food, the better it is.
You hear a lot about therapy dogs but therapy cats rarely get a mention. We felines know how to make humans feel calm and loved. This story is about Sparkle Cat’s visit to a school for children with developmental disabilities. You will love her tale of how the healing purr works magic.
Ok, I admit it, I was deeply offended by this headline but then the human told me to check my catitude and purruse the article a bit further and I’m glad I did. There’s lots of good info here people and the article explains our brains and provides some interesting tidbits…like did you know that cats dream?
Now before you go getting your tail in a twist, this is not a real kitty but this faux feline does save lives. My feline friends, have you ever wondered about that carrier that you are often unceremoniously stuffed into? Did you think, “Gee, I hope this thing is safe”. Well there are people who think about that all the time and they use the crash test kitty to make sure all of us felines are safe. (Note, crash test kitty is on the right, the canine is an anonymous friend)
Now this really has me concerned. After checking the map, every state surrounding us is evidently a cat lover state, but not ours! The Tribe of Five is seriously considering petitioning the humans for a move. North, south, east or west is fine, just a state that is a designated cat lover state! Is your state a cat loving state?

Cosplay for cats? Well, why not? Valiant Comics’ just announced their latest series of cat cosplay variant covers. Variant covers, in the comic book world, are when a comic company ships multiple covers for their first printing and more often than not, the covers only make sense if you link the various covers together. (Who knew a feline had such comic book knowledge?). I purrrrrused the covers and had a hard time selecting my favorite but I think it has to be Harbinger Renegades (shown at left).
My first pick is from the gorgeous and world-renown fashionista feline-Sparkle Cat. In the humble opinion of this young (and very handsome) cat, Miss Sparkle is a beauty (although I am also greatly enamored with Coco the Couture Cat as well). In this blog entry, Sparkle shows her sense of humor and reminds us that even famous cats have to dry the line somewhere!
George the cat makes some very good points about living with the bothersome and noisy machine the humans call the “printer” and which George refers to as the “purrrrinter”. The humans seem to have some sort of love of machines that annoy (or terrify) felines. I myself could write a soliloquy about the “vacuum monster”: and the fear it strikes in the hearts of The Tribe of Five.
journalist that presents a story in an interesting and compelling way. I purred with joy after reading this beautiful interview. Sula is one amazing feline. She’s had cancer twice and survived and now has the title of “Comforter-in-Chief at the mission. Her job is to provide a loving feline touch for anyone there who is in need of it. I know many cats with jobs but Sula has a very special one. And, Sula has a book entitled, “Surviving Cancer, Healing People, One Cat’s Story”. I can’t wait to have my human read it to me!
MC and BC have been having some unnerving conversations lately about aliens. Here’s one that kept me up last night after the human read it to me. I’m not so sure there aren’t aliens around our place and heaven knows we have enough to worry about with all the wild woodland creatures that walk on our downstairs deck and stare into the glass sliders at night. But, you decide, did Bear dip a little too deep into the nip or are there really cat-attacking aliens out there?
