Hello! Well my “Persistent Thursday” turned into a “Successful Thursday Afternoon” because I got logged on and I’m IN at Cat Scouts! YAY! Not only THAT, but I’ve already joined a group and submitted proof of compliance to get my first badge – it’s a “Camping Badge” and I had to show myself in a tent (can you believe it???? Perfect for me since I have tons of tent photos!!!). So I’m on my way. Here’s my Tenderpaw badge (the first step in being a Scout) and when I get a badge for “Camping” I’ll show you that too.
I started my own “Troup” too so if any of you want to join my group, please feel free to do that…………my group is called “Warrenton Wildcats” and as soon as I get confirmation that it’s officially made a group I’ll let you know!
What else do I have to share with you today? Well how about something I read about HERE. On November 4th everyone who participates will be showing our individual “Peace Badges” in support of “DONA NOBIS PACEM” or “Grant Us Peace”. You can download a special badge from the site OR make your own – personalize it if you wish – here’s mine which I submitted to the coordinator of the logos for participants:
I’m getting some entries for my Sam-O-Ween costume competition already – don’t forget to submit a photo before October 28th to be in in the contest. There will be a poll and you can petition the universe to vote for you if you wish………Tee Hee………but don’t wait until the last minute – you can send it to me any time!
Everything comes to he who persists! Where are you going to sew all your badges…

Good question Miss Annie….well, I’ll not be sewing them onto my ginger furs that’s for sure…..Mom says she thinks they’ll have (or maybe already do) some scarves or something we can sew badges on but we haven’t figured that out yet. If not, there’s always my “page” there where all my accomplishments are displayed! It’s a lot of fun though.
Kitty Hugs, Sammy

Wow Sam, I am a Tenderpaw and didn’t even know about the badge for it. I am going to have to find that so I can put it on my Cat Scout page when Mom builds it. Also, didn’t know we could make our own badge for Blog for Peace. Mom gets home late tonight and I am going to need to get her busy doing these things for me. I also got to get busy earning more badges. Wally (The Island Cats) and I seem to be in a bit of a competition, and he has surged way past me. Phooey! Have a great weekend.

YAY Austin!!!!! If you’re signed up – go to the “Camp” page and you’ll see where you can download the uniform headless graphic (eeek) and you can get your Mom to photoshop your head onto the uniform (double eeek) then upload it to your page there……As for joining my group, you should be able to find Warrenton Wildcats on the GROUPSandTROOPS tab…..and just click “join” and voila (or ta da…) you’ve joined. You actually can join bunches of groups – whoever you know there in fact….I guess they don’t have a way to keep us on a page together as a Group yet. No biggie. Then check out the Merit Badges page so you can start collecting badges – it’s easy – just upload photos of you doing whatever is required in the description for the badge and they will eventually send you a “code” to unlock the badge!! WOO HOO! I’ll see now if I can send you a Friend Request there…!
