Catfurnet's premier purrblication of feline mews & mischief October 2014 [Did you miss the Summer issue? Still available to read online.] EDITOR'S CORNER Hadarah Celebrates Ah just love to dress up so Halloween is mah favorite holiday. It can be pretty scary. Good thing Ah have mah brofurs, The Wicked Twins, to purrtect me from the most scariest of things. Sometimes they are the scariest things. They like to pick on me calling me a babycat and a silly gurl. Sometimes they play tricks, too. They hide behind doors and jump out at me when Ah walk past. They swat at me, and then they run away looking oh-so-innocent when Meowmie comes to check. And more. Much more. So you can see why Ah had mah doubts when they offered to go with me to a Halloween party ... Join the Halloween Party DWNN'S COLUMN Helping Around the House We luff our purrents and enjoy helping them whenevfur we can. They don't always apurrciate our efforts and even have been known to shout at a helpful kitty! We purrsevere anyway. The Caterwaul Chronicle wants to recognize the many ways kitties help by purrblishing photos of readers hard at work helping around the house. We hope that you will send a photo of ways you help. Meanwhile, here's one from my photo album of an infurview with my much missed furriend, Indy Eberso. INDY: I am like Meowmie's purrsonal secretary. When she lets too much junk accumulates by da puter, I get to work. I mewsually wate fur Meowmie to leaf and den I move stuff around to hep dis ugly sitmewashun. I started wif her post it notes, mofed on to pens and erasers. Den I gradmewated to books and styuff like dat. Mostly dey needs to be on da spashuious floor. Anofur ting I do dat really heps her is to make her rest her poor ofurworked eyes by lying on da monitor and letting my tail and back legs dangle ofur da monitor. She can't see so she has to rest. DWNN: Kudos, Indy. You surely are a helpful tom! Readercats, we'd like to share your helpful ways.

The monthly purrblicaton has lots of good stuff that no kitty should miss. Visit BFCC BREAKING NEWS FASA Warns of Alien Invasion The Feline Astronomical Space Agency (FASA) announced today that a saucer-shaped UFO has been observed coming toward earth and could reach our planet within a month. This message is of greatest impurrtance to felines since it is well known that space aliens want to steal the brains of cats, the most intelligent life form on Earth. FASA officials speculated that the oncoming object could be related to many disturbing recent reports of strange and eerie manifestations in the homes of many kitties. First repurrted by Omar, shown below with one of these creatures, hundreds of other households report the presence of the -- whatever they are -- in bathrooms around the globe. Each has a brush growing out of its backside. They are said to be able to remain in one position for extremely long periods of time. They become dusty, and many Meowmies feel sorry for them and periodically give them a good washing. FASA is monitoring the situation and recommends that all kitties wear foil-lined caps as a preventive measure until it can be assured that feline brains are safe.
