YEAH – that’s right – I’m getting spaced out……………no not from catnip (tee hee)……..but from working like a cat on fire with the Moon Trip plans!!! Yep – Mom and I both. Mom’s got eyestrain and I’ve got arthritic toes from working on the keyboard. We’re a right sad pair.
We have at this point a total of 33 animals of various types (!) coming on the trip plus two humans. BUT there’s plenty of time to join up (you have until this coming Monday!). If you want a refresher on the details, you can find it BY CLICKING RIGHT HERE!
In the meantime, for fun yesterday I googled “cats in space” and came up with some totally hilarious stuff BUT also some rather creative stuff too…….I’m gonna share three of my favorites in a slideshow for your viewing entertainment! But before I do, I want to show you one SPECIAL “poster” I received from our very good friend the beautiful and talented Layla from CatWisdom 101 whose cat Odin is coming on the trip with us. Miss Layla is a really great artist in addition to being a really great writer and friend……….check out this poster she did:
Isn’t it totally PAWSOME??? I love it……..
Now for the slideshow………………!
I’m so excited….can you tell? Are you?
Layla is indeed very talented – beautiful poster! Love your finds too 😀

Sammy, Scouts Tiger, Dora & Trouble here. We were wondering if there was still space on the ship left for us. We saw on the scouts site that we can go with you?! Mom has been neglecting to read everything – we though it was just you going to the moon. We might even see mom’s brain floating in orbit somewhere after takeoff! MOL! She knows I’m kidding….We know we missed the contests but if there is still room for us, let us know. Thanks! ~Tiger

Hi Tiger! If you guys can get your photos to me (look on my blog there’s a link to where the artwork you need for your spacesuits is!!) TODAY – (shouldn’t take long to zap your heads into those suits!!) you can hop aboard and go with us when we take off on Thursday. The contests are tomorrow – so get your spacesuits to me TODAY ASAP and I can get you in the contests. If you don’t care about the contests but still want to go – just have your pix to me by Wednesday…..I’ll make sure you’re all aboard (and get credit for the surprise badge Denmaster did in Cat Scouts….I had NO IDEA about that!!).
