Scary KaTwo

 Mom thinks this photo should be on my vet record.

Scary Photo

Actually I have two scary photos and not sure which one is the most scariest.

This is a photo of me trying to scare mom into working for me on the computer.


After having my picture taken for this photo I could not sleep well for a week, oh so scary!!


Scared? Who - Me????


Laser Eyes - Yes I was CAUGHT!
"WHO - ME - SCARED??".........(maybe just a little!)

OOPS - Am I not supposed to be up here Dad?  I know this is YOUR bathroom and everything but I thought I could get a drink anywhere!    YOU CAUGHT ME!

This was taken not long after I came to live with my Mom and Dad in 2017 - I heard my Dad turn on the faucet preparing to shave and I thought I'd take advantage of the fresh water.   To this day, I still drink out of any of our bathroom sinks.   Spoiled?  Maybe.

Hugs, Teddy

SCARY TOCK-TOBER

We didn't make it here on Sunday for Tock-tober, so we are combining our scary post with our Tock-tober.

If we are being honest, we are both too cute to be scary, so we used a scary frame to bolster the effect.




We'd also like to invite you to visit Friends Furever today to read Part II of the Adventures of Periwinkle and Stinky.

This month we were going to have a PART TWO of our Founder, Gracie's, story.    She's sharing the scoop about how she came to find her FOREVER HOME and has already shared with us how the Tabby Cat Club got started.   However, since we have a FEATURED TABBY this month, she is postponing Part Two of the GRACIE STORY for another month.   Stay tuned - we'll have more from her I'm sure!
As I said, we DO have our very first "FEATURED TABBY" this month and many of you know him already since he's a member of the fabulous Kitties Blue at THE CAT ON MY HEAD - he's Sawyer, the newest addition to the family Blue.    Sawyer has a lot to say so make sure and read his story.  It's fun AND inspiring all rolled into one.   If you would like to be FEATURE TABBY in a future newsletter, please just let Gracie know.    It's "easy peasy" and you deserve to strut your stuff!   An added bonus is that if YOU are the FEATURED TABBY - you will also appear in a special banner for that month designed by Gracie!

Featured Tabby - Sawyer


Introducing Sawyer Blue!  He is special for many reasons, but we think he gives you a wonderful overview of himself in this fabulous poem he wrote with a little help from his Mom, Janet.    We are so happy he's a member of our Club.    You can visit him and the other Kitties Blue at their blog by clicking the ADORABLE photo of him here.   Make sure and visit the Tabby Cat Club to see the cute banner Gracie did featuring the adorable Sawyer!

Lucky Cat

My name is Sawyer and I’m a tough little dude.
I’ve tons of moxie and a can-do attitude.
I am a Manx cat, which means I have no tail.
I’m also a grey tabby cat and a male.
I was found on the deck at a vacant house,
Living off of bugs and the occasional mouse.
Less than three pounds I weighed when I was found.
I thank God I wasn’t taken to the pound.
I was brought to a house on Thanksgiving weekend.
I didn’t know for myself I’d no longer need to fend.
I also didn’t know there were eight other cats
Or I’d be living a life only my wildest dreams could surpass.
When I was allowed to mingle, I made friends with a calico.
Her name was Lily Olivia and she was very old.
She died a couple months later as a matter of fact.
She was almost nineteen and, like me, a rescued cat,
I can only dream of becoming such a revered senior,
As I have a seizure disorder and my prognosis is poor.
It is hard to be just two years old and afflicted this way
And need to take medicine four times each day.
My seizures can be very scary.
Never knowing when one will happen makes Mom wary.
I’ve had a few that my humans were unable to stop,
Then into the car we have all had to hop.
My dad then drives us to the emergency vet
To get me stable and back home to rest.
Where with any luck I’ll have some quiet days
To spend on the catio and at the birdies gaze.
I have a big brother named Cooper Murphy
He’s a huge ginger tabby and really quite goofy.
Like me he was rescued from living outside
When it was winter and snowing with no place to hide.
There are six more cats with whom I coexist.
Most are nice; while others are misfits.
They all can be a gigantic pain in my tush.
Nevertheless, I am one lucky puss.
I have a loving home in which to dwell
Where My life is grand and I’m treated swell.
And now I pray all animals can find good homes
And, like me, never again the streets have to roam.

Coming Attractions

We hope you'll do a Halloween post AND attend the TCC party too.    Lots of ghouls and goblins will be out celebrating and we want the Tabby Cat Club to be part of the fun.................FALL means FUN right?

Help Wanted!    

Yes we  need your help updating our email list.    If you no longer want to receive email from the Tabby Cat Club, please let Gracie know.   It's time we updated the mailing list so now is your chance to opt out.

Extra - Extra - Read All About It!

This TCC Newsletter is going to be sent out to each of you every month instead of having to sign up to receive it!    We will also publish it at the Tabby Cat Club.   We have been doing the Newsletter in a separate blog which just requires more maintenance - so we will send it out to everyone on our MAILING LIST now instead.

Onward Tabbies!     See you next month............
