Happy Wesak

Happy Wesak. Today is Buddha's Birthday. So we are going to do our best and try to behave today.

I think it will be a day we will nap for peace. Meditate on positive thoughts and leave the biting until later in the week!

(We are sorry we will not be around to visit everyone today. This post was written on Sunday so that we don't have to turn the computer on today!)

Have a wonderful Wesak!

Namaste

Countdown Kiss and Run?

On the Wednesday Edition of Countdown Keith Olbermann told President Bush to "Shut up".

After the show Keith Olbermann was swarmed by cats dressed in what appeared to be costumes from the movie Star Wars. Those in the studio feared that Olbermann was being attacked by the infamous Bite & Run Brigade. However in a shocking turn of events he was kissed gently and thanked by each cat.

One cat wearing dressed as Princess Leia in the slave bikini outfit sat on his lap and purred, until asked to leave. Unconfirmed sources believe that cat was Zevo Calamari, one of the founders of the Pooses for Peace. The only casualty of the event was Mr. Olbermann's suit which was covered in cat hair. Later Olbermann joined the cats at a Star Wars themed birthday party for George Lucas. He came dressed as Hans Solo.

Here is a small portion of Keith's commentary last night:

"Mr. President,” he was asked, “you haven’t been golfing in recent years. Is that related to Iraq?
“Yes,” began perhaps the most startling reply of this nightmarish blight on our lives as Americans — on our history.
“It really is. I don’t want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the Commander-in-Chief playing golf. I feel I owe it to the families to be as — to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal.”
Golf, Sir?
Golf sends the wrong signal to the grieving families of our men and women butchered in Iraq?
Do you think these families, Mr. Bush - their lives blighted forever — care about you playing golf?
Do you think, Sir, they care about you?
You, Mr. Bush, let their sons and daughters be killed.
Sir, to show your solidarity with them - you gave up golf?
Sir, to show your solidarity with them - you didn’t give up your pursuit of this insurance-scam, profiteering, morally and financially bankrupting war.
Sir, to show your solidarity with them - you didn’t even give up talking about Iraq - a subject about which you have incessantly proved without pause or backwards glance, that you may literally be the least informed person in the world?
Sir, to show your solidarity with them, you didn’t give up… your
4,000 dead Americans and your response… was to stop playing golf!
Golf.
Not “gulf” - golf.

Bite Patrol a No Show at Wedding?

AP
Crawford Texas

Security was tightened for the wedding of George Bush's daughter Jenna this past Saturday. Unconfirmed sources claim that the family and Homeland Security were expecting a Bite & Run Attack during the wedding by the infamous Pooses for Peace. All members of the bridal party wore ankle guards as a precaution. The bride wore a special diamond clad ankle guard to match her Oscar de La Renta gown.

CIA, FBI, Swat patrols, Texas Rangers and Homeland security were on the highest elevated alert for the entire day on the look out for any suspicious cats. No Bite & Run Attacks were reported. No cats were seen at all in Crawford that day.

An anonymous guest claims that the wedding went as planned and the only interruption was a temper tantrum thrown by Jenna Bush when she discovered her earrings were no longer on her ears. Jenna's twin sister Barbara also lost a diamond bracelet at the reception. Another guest who wishes to remain anonymous reported that both were drinking heavily.

happy mother's day!

Shhhhhhh...... we are letting her sleep in for Mother's Day!

We wish all the poose moms a very happy Mother's Day! Thank you for taking such good care of us!

Poose Congress Session Called

An emergency session of the Poose Congress (all members of the Pooses for Peace) has been called today. During this session we will determine when the next Bite & Run will be scheduled. (All Bite & Runs include the Poop & Run Brigade as well as the Whap & Run Brigade.)

Right now we are discussing the option of biting at um, attending Jenna Bush's wedding tomorrow or resting up for a more worthy cause.

Do we really want to go to Crawford, Texas on tomorrow? Laura Bush really should be bit for her nasty comments about Myanmar. Then again..... is the food really going to be worth it? I think they are serving pizza.

We will begin voting. Pooses... cast your votes now for the next Bite & Run.

Siete de Mayo

Due to technical difficulties we are taking a few days off.......

Can someone shut off the lights and bring some aspirin?

oh my poor poose head

Feliz Cinco De Mayo!

Hola Gatos!

Estamos teniendo una gran fiesta esta noche. Habrá mucho tequila y la comida para todos. Música Mariachi. Por favor, únase a nosotros!

For all you gringo cats here is the translation! We are having a big party tonight. There will be lots of tequila and food for all. Mariachi Music too. Please join us!

Boys, bring your own sombreros. Uni-brows, red lipstick and traditional Mexican costumes are a must for all girls.

Paws for a commercial break.......

We would like to thank all of you who have purred and prayed for Nubi these past few days. He is doing well and i am very happy to have him home again. (Zevo is still miffed he has returned!) We are going to take a few days off from blogging this weekend and hope to return Monday for Cinco de Mayo. (I hear that these pooses are planning quite the fiesta! Meanwhile here is some important info that i would like to share with everyone.)



Rescue Remedy is one of my most favorite products to use for calming and reducing stress. I use it in my acupuncture practice. Dogs, cats, kids and humans all respond positively to it. It is safe. It does not interfere with any medication.
The effect is very subtle, however it does work.

It can be added to your pet's water. Sometimes i will spray a dog cookie with Rescue Remedy before i begin an acupuncture session with a dog. If i am treating a cat i massage a bit into their ears and the top of their head. You can also add it to any drink for humans. I also use it on my plants.

Rescue Remedy is also wonderful for those days you have to take your pet to the vet, or if there is any trauma or situation that causes stress.

I add it to Zevo & Nubi's water. Lately i have also been using another Bach Flower essence "Holly" for Zevo's jealousy. (Please don't tell her!)

You can find Bach Flower remedies at most health food stores, Whole Foods, The Vitamin Shoppe or online.

From the Bach Flower website:

"The original Bach Rescue Remedy

• Impatiens: For those who act and think quickly, and have no patience for what they see as the slowness of others. They often prefer to work alone. Teaches empathy and understanding of and patience with others. We've found it very fast-acting in alieviating an impatient attitude and lowering stress.
• Star of Bethlehem: For trauma and shock, whether experienced recently or in the past. Teaches the ability to recover from traumas and to integrate them into the present life.
• Cherry Plum: For those who fear losing control of their thoughts and actions and doing things they know are bad for them or which they consider wrong. Teaches trust in one's spontaneous wisdom and the courage to follow one's path.
• Rock Rose: For situations in which one experiences panic or terror.
• Clematis: For those who find their lives unhappy and withdraw into fantasy worlds. They are ungrounded and indifferent to the details of everyday life. Teaches one to establish a bridge between the physical world and the world of ideas; may foster great creativity. Is also used to bring clarity and alertness to the present moment.

These combinations of Bach Flower Essences that is especially beneficial when you find yourself in traumatic situations, such as, stress, emergencies, after getting bad news, before an exam or job interview and all other kind of situations where we suddenly lose balance mentally. The Essences quickly get us back in our normal balance so that we calmly can deal with any situation. "

Have a great weekend!

There's no place like home..............

I'm home! Oh Aunty Em... there's no place like home!

I am feeling a bit woozy. I hope i do not have to go back to the v-e-t's... tho they were very nice to me....except when they were poking and prodding me. They shaved me too... only parts........ My pet human thinks i look like some dude named MR T and the male pet human keeps screaming "I pity the fool" every time i walk by. (I got more respect at the vets.)

Now i have to tolerate the nasty medicine the humans will force down me... and i heard rumors of Chinese herbs and acupuncture are in my future.....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

My pet human keeps telling me i will have to get a job or she will have to sell one of her kidneys to pay the vet bill. (She is lucky that this vet knows her and is allowing her to pay it in chunks!)

Zevo has been a real bitch um challenge to be around. She acts like i am some new poose invading her home. She is very unhappy that i have returned. I have only lived here almost 2 years. The pet humans adopted me when her sister the Baby Pig passed away hoping i would keep Zevo company. She has been mad ever since. I hope she remembers to like me again. If i had some extra cash i would buy her a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes....or i would pay the vet bill.

Well.. i am tired again. Very tired. I see a pink lady in a bubble telling me to click my paws and repeat... "There's no place like home.........There's no place like home................There's no place like..........om.......................

Nubi News

Hi Everyone,

We would like to thank everyone for purring get well wishes for Nubi. He is still in the hospital and may come home soon. He is doing well...though he probably is not very happy staying at the vet's wearing one of those funny collars and a catheter. He was diagnosed with crystals and stones in his urine. We think it happened when the pet human switched from Solid Gold katz-n-flockens to another so called holistic brand....hmmmmmmmm

Guess we will go back to Solid Gold even though it made our box extra stinky. (That was Nubi... while he has been gone the box smells of roses and pink sparkles are floating out of it. ..really!)

Anyway... i am reading up on brands of cat food that are good for those pooses prone to stones and crystals. (Sounds so New Age huh?) If any of you have an suggestions please let us know. Our pet human is very picky about what she feeds us. We are not allowed any normal brands that you find in the grocery store such as Purina, Iams, Eukenuba, etc.
She said they are junk. She prefers to feed us organic food with No wheat, corn, soy or fillers. She can be so annoying that way.

Nubi will have to take some stinky Chinese herbs too for this condition. I bet the pet human will try to give him acupuncture... oh that should be sosoooooooo much fun to watch!

It has been nice and quiet for me while Nubi has been gone. I can hog the pillows. I get all the attention and as i mentioned the box is not stinky! Tho.. i do miss having someone to blame when things stink. And he does make a great pillow when we nap. I hope he comes home soon just so the pet humans will stop worrying.

Oh and just to be nice to help pay the vet bill, i will be auctioning off some of my worn out old um, latest Versace gowns and Jimmy Choos along with some paintings i found at the Louvre. ... oh and there is a pair of red Papal Prade shoes too........

Can someone pour me some champagne?

Ciao for now,
zevo

Healing Purrs Requested

Please send healing purrs and thoughts today for our dear boy, Nubi wan Kenobi, Jedi Poose who is in the hospital. We are hoping that he will be OK and home very very soon. He was a very brave boy today at the vet's. He is even braver to stay there tonight.

He sends his apologies to Presidential Candidate,Cheysuli, as he must take a sick leave being her body guard this week.

Come home soon Nubi..... i promise not to call you a poosehead for awhile.
xoxoxoxo
zevo and her pet humans

UPDATE! My pet human has been in touch with the vet hospital and Nubi is doing well. He will probably be there until Thursday. He may have kidney stones. We are all hoping that he does not need anymore tests or operations.

He is acting "fresh" according to the vet tech our human spoke to. I am not sure what a fresh poose acts like. (Sounds like a new dish at a chain restaurant. FRESH POOSE PLATTER ?)

Thanks for keep him in your purrs and prayers. Tomorrow we may be planning a bank heist to pay the vet bill.

Celebrity politicats Miss Lucy Fur, Miss Boo and Zevo Hussein Calamari were seen dancing on table tops at Hillcrest's famous party spot Mo's over the weekend. The cats all wearing tiaras were celebrating Miss Lucy Fur's return from her rehab stay long vacation. Miss Lucy Fur was wearing a stunning new tiara given to her by Boo and Zevo.

Other cats part of the infamous Bite & Run Brigade, The Poop and Run Brigade and the Miles & Sammy Meezer Whap and Run Brigade were also spotted dancing and drinking margaritas.

Unconfirmed sources report seeing Presidential Candidate Cheysuli. A few black cats were also seen enjoying the party, however there were too many to determine if unvited Jedi , Nubi Hussein wan Kenobi crashed the party. One cat wishing to remain anonymous said that one of the black cats was Bendrix, Mr Hendrix's evil twin.

The party went on until 2:00 am and the cats were kicked out left peacefully and took their party to Balboa Park. San Diego police reported seeing several hung over cats under trees this morning in the park but they were not arrested.

The Party Continues...........

I only have three words to say to you Miss Lucy Fur........ "It's MY tiara!"

Pass the nachos please...and another round of margaritas for my friends...........

kiss kiss
Boo

Lucy Fur is Back!

Hi Everyone...

Did you miss me? (The correct answer is "Yes dearest Lucy Fur, we missed you terribly.") I am back from my rehab um... long vacation feeling oh so sane and perky.

I am single again. The Queen's corgie dumped me and i decided to call it quits. The long distance relationship was exhausting.

Judd the puppy is still annoying and getting most of the attention here. I tolerate him. He is a distraction for the humans which gives me free time to shop and party.

I am inviting everyone to Mo's in Hillcrest (San Diego ) tonight for margaritas and dancing. I will make sure there are tuna and ham nachos for all. Miss Boo will be there and we are hoping Zevo flies out to be there too. She needs a break from that poose-head Nubi!

See you at Mo's
California Casual attire please!

What tree?

Shhh.... i am hiding. I was bad today. My pet human let me out on the balcony and i tried to jump into a nearby tree which was having a birdie-palooza fest. She screamed so loud that it scared the birds away. And then she called me a "poosehead" and made me come back inside.

I shall plan my revenge for later tonight when she is asleep. She hates it when i sleep on her head and pull her hair...
pay back time............ 3:00 am

Mr Hendrix the Kitty who looks alot like me has tagged us for the book Meme. (hmmm maybe i should have blamed Bendrix for the tree stunt?)

Since we once had to pass on the book meme once when we were tagged by Chey Hussein Suli we thought we should cooperate and just do it.

So we chose THE HITCHHIKERS GUIDE TO THE GALAXY by Douglas Adams. (When saying his name my pet human bows her head as if he were a deity.)

As per the instructions:
Turn to page 123
read 5 lines down
and the next 3 read plus 2 more for fun

"Do you want me to kick you?" said Ford

"Would it give you pleasure?" said Zaphod, blearily.

"No."

"Nor me. So what's the point? Stop bugging me." Zaphod curled himself up.

"He got a double dose of the gas." said Trillian, looking down at him, "two windpipes."


I am not going to tag anyone. Instead i invite everyone to wake their pet humans up tonight at 3:00 am.
oh... and i am NOT a poosehead.

Breaking News.................

Authorities are reporting a Bite and Run Attack at the UN Headquarters in New York City just hours ago.

Unconfirmed sources claim that the infamous Pooses for Peace organization requested to address the UN General Assembly concerning the war in Iraq, Dafur, Tibet, torture at Gitmo and the war crimes committed by the Bush administration.

The Assembly responded with "So sorry,,,,,,We are very busy and important. We do not waste time talking to cats."

Shortly after the statement screams, shrieks and sneezes were heard through out the entire building. UN diplomats were taken to an undisclosed hospital for treatments of ankle bites, knee scratches and allergy attacks. All are in stable condition.

No suspects have been named as security cameras seem to have malfunctioned during the attacks. Rumor has it that the Bite and Run Brigade, a division of the Pooses for Peace, was to blame.

Several diplomats have reported missing earrings and watches. The UN will be closed on Monday to repair carpet damage and stench control.

Pooses for Peace Spokes-poose Zevo Hussein Calamari issued a statement. "Too busy to discuss torture? May fleas descend upon your home and your bodies. May you be feel the pain and suffering of all those who you should be representing. And may you forever smell the stench of our Poop and Run brigades upon your shoes. "

Zevo Hussein Calamari and her cohorts will be on David Letterman tonight.

Thank You!

The Mod Squad of the Pooses for Peace!

In honor of Zevomas our friends at Zoolatry made this stunning montage of Zevo, Boo and Miss Lucy Fur.

We would like to thank Maggy and Zoey and their Pet Human Ann for such a wonderful gift. It is an honor to be immortalized by such a great artist..... and such wonderful words about our blog! "Your blog is on our Top Ten list for sure; fantastic writing, it always brings a hearty laugh -- and one that is so "right on" politically...we really, really enjoy it. You'll be our Best In Show this coming Sunday, by the way."

And we would like to also thank all the pooses who have joined us in New York making this Zevomas season an extra special one.

Later today we are hoping to speak to the UN General Assembly concerning the unrest on the planet. We are asking that they stop the war in Iraq, stop the madness in Tibet, Help those poor people in Dafur. We demand the removal of the Chimp-decider and his cronies immediately and ask that they be replaced with a more intelligent leader such as Cheysuli.

All Bite & Run, Poop & Run, Whap, Poot and Scratch and Run Brigades are on RED alert during this session!

Pooses Sing Puccini

Associated Press
New York

Last night the Metropolitan Opera House was packed to the brim with patrons, celebritites and cats, wearing tiaras and top hats for La Boheme. (Unconfirmed sources claim to have seen a few dogs, one in drag and a pair of bunny slippers up in the balcony)

Much to the surprise of the audience the cast was joined by several cats during the final scene. Zevo Hussein Calamari sung the part of Mimi while Nubi Hussein wan Kenobi assumed the part of Rodolfo. Several members of The Pooses for Peace Bite & Run Brigade joined the chorus. (We regret that we cannot name the hundreds of cats due to time constraints and space since they have all added Hussein as their middle name!)

The most shocking part of the finale is when the cats took over the chorus and began to sing the last song from Moulin Rouge after screaming VIVA LA BOHEME!

"No matter what you say.......

The show is ending our way.....

for FREEDOM!

BEAUTY!

TRUTH and

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE"

After the initial surprise the cats received a standing ovation. Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor joined the cats on stage for an encore.

In other New York news several patrons at the opera reported missing earrings, watches and shoes.

Zevomas continues..........

Associated Press
New York

Hordes of cats wearing tiaras, top hats and leather jackets swarmed into The Big Apple to celebrate the first day of Zevomas which began Tuesday.

City officials reported a boost in ham and tuna sandwich sales. Liquor stores reported running out of tequila early in the day. All hotels and motels are filled for the entire week. Rumor has it the Motel 6 has one extra room available but those interested should be warned of a stench coming from the other rooms.

To start off the festivities a firework display was held at the Statue of Liberty. The Pooses for Peace and friends arrived in a solar powered motorcade of green limos. Some of the celebrities sighted at the display were Presidentail Candidate Cheysuli, George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Donnatella Versace, Yoko Ono, Sara Jessica Parker, Liza Minnelli and David Letterman. (Later this week Pooses for Peace spokes-poose Zevo Calamari will be on David Letterman.)

Authorities report it was a peaceful event. However park officials noted that the poem inscribed on the Statue of Liberty was changed to read:

"Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled pooses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched pooses of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, the flea ridden to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

In other NY news, Paris Hilton claims to have been bitten by a beast dressed in black leather. She cannot recall any other details as she was on "medication". Her Prada sunglasses and Versace watch are now missing.

Donald Trump was seen without his wig for a brief moment today. Unconfirmed sources claim that it was stolen. Mr Trump denies wearing a wig or having it stolen.

An increase in petty theft was reported on Tuesday. There was a sudden decrease in rats and mice seen as well.

The First Day of Zevomas

It's Tuesday and here we are at the Ritz Carlton! We are still waiting for more of our guests to arrive all week The real fun happens over the weekend. I am sure we will find plenty to occupy our time for the next seven days. So many tourist attractions, shows and ankles to bite.

Since this is the first day of Zevomas i thought i would share how Zevo and i became best friends. About ten um, a few years ago Zevo still lived in San Diego not to far from me. (Her pet human and mine are friends. They met in acupuncture school... anyway that is beside the point! Ha! No pun intended!)

Zevo and her sister Baby Pig were working at The Bread & Cie Bakery. They were driving the truck and delivering bread. They hired a big white dog to help push the pedals on the truck. The bread was never delivered. They were all fired the first week. They went on to try other retail jobs. The Pig worked at a Cheese Shop and was fired for eating the profits. Zevo worked at Starbucks in Hillcrest and was accused of stealing tips and was "let go". She tried cutting hair for awhile but it was not a smart career choice for someone with paws. I am not sure what ever happened to the white dog.

One night they went to Hamburger Mary's for a few margaritas. I was there drowning my sorrows over loosing my sequined flip flops at the beach that day. It was a warm summer night. Its a gay bar, so cats wearing tiaras drink for free. As fate would have it the magic of the margaritas took effect and by midnight we were all dancing on table tops and the bar. Of course, we immediately bonded under the influence of the Agave God and became the best of friends.

We also discovered that we were very good at "finding" expensive jewelry and other fine items that we were able to sell on the black market um, give away to charity. Thus began our reputation as cat burglars. Such an ugly phrase. We prefer to think of ourselves as modern day Robin Hoods... with tiaras.

I won't bore you with how we became celebrities, friends with Miss Lucy Fur, Madonna, Donatella, Johnny Depp, (bit his nasty French wife), arrested at the Vatican, dated George Clooney, met with Fidel Castro.... ... well i really don't want to brag so i will stop there.

Zevo and Baby Pig were forced moved to New England. Baby Pig who was the original founder for Pigs for Peace (now known as The Pooses for Peace) passed away a few years ago. We miss her dearly and her birthday would also be on Monday. Before her passing they opened Brothel Calamari , Casino Calamari and Cinema Calamari. All successful businesses! Zevo's pet humans thought she would be lonely so they adopted Nubi wan Kenobi. For the record she was not lonely and is still miffed they did not ask her permission. She tolerates him.

This week will be the best birthday celebration ever. All pooses are welcome to stay with us at the Ritz. We have the entire hotel to ourselves and a few celebrities. (So sorry but The Poop and Run Brigade will be staying at the Motel 6 )

Tickets are still available for La Boheme at the Met for this Wednesday evening's performance. Later we will dine at La Luna in Little Italy. Moonstruck attire is requested.

For all you who are attending the Birthday Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday evening, Donatella Versace will be providing outfits for all. Shoes will be provided by Jimmy Choo, Prada and Manolo. You must bring your own tiaras and top hats.

Room service is here. Champagne anyone?
ciao for now
Miss Boo

you are invited

The season of Zevomas starts tomorrow, Tuesday April 8, 2008 and ends with Zevo Calamari's birthday on Monday April 14, 2008. This is a very big birthday for Zevo. (We like to keep her age a secret from the paparazzi.)

This year Zevo has requested an eco-friendly birthday. Usually she goes to Paris or Milan to celebrate.

The Pooses for Peeace have planned a very special week for her and her friends in New York City. Miss Boo has booked the entire Ritz Carlton which overlooks Central Park for the week. Miss Lucy Fur is in the process of planning an eco-friendly ticker tape parade. Nubi wan Kenobi is negotiating with the UN to meet with the Pooses for Peace while they are in town. Parties and activities will be announced during the week.

All pooses are invited to this once in a life time extravaganza. Bring your own tiaras and top hats. Plenty of organic ham, tuna and chicken for all. A Nip-tini fountain has been placed in the Ritz Carlton for the entire week.

See you in New York!
Happy Zevomas

We Can Solve It!

Al Gore Invites The Pooses for Peace to launch the WE campaign:
We can solve the climate crisis!

The Pooses for Peace are thrilled about Al Gore's new WE Campaign website
wecansolveit.org

The WE Campaign is a project of The Alliance for Climate Protection -- a nonprofit, nonpartisan effort founded by Nobel laureate and former Vice President Al Gore, which we launched with our first Live Earth concert on 7.07.07. The WE Campaign's ultimate aim is to halt global warming. They are beginning with educating people in the US and around the world that the climate crisis is both urgent and solvable.

Al Gore and The Pooses for Peace invite you to visit this website. Sign the petition. Learn what you can do to help save this planet ... for all people and pooses!

We can solve it!

Tonight at Cinema Calamari

We will showing the movie The Secret tonight at Cinema Calamari.

It is not like pooses really need to watch it. We know how to manifest everything we want and need. However, it seems that in the cat blog-o-sphere, the rumor is that most of our pet humans are going through some sort of money crisis or worries about the lack of it.

Tonight we invite all pooses and their pet humans for this special viewing. There will be plenty of nip-tinis, ham and an unlimited abundance of the popcorn your humans want!

Shhhhhhhhh...it's a secret................

Today on Oprah.... Miss Lucy Fur

Join Oprah and her BFF Miss Lucy Fur on today's show.

Miss Lucy will share what really happened at the so called Brad & Angelina wedding this weekend and how she missed the Poop & Run graduation for nothing!

She will also share the story of her tragic love affair with the Queen's corgi and the ongoing drama of her life with Judd the puppy.

Don't miss today's Oprah!

Special Musical guest.... Celine Dion!

The Morning After

Ohhhhhh please keep those lights off and try not to make any noise. We are so hung over from the Poop & Run Graduation party! What a wonderful event. It was especially fun when we turned out the lights at 8:00 pm for Earth Hour! Woooo hoooo

Congrats to all of you who are now official officers of the Poop & Run Brigade.

And for all those of you who keep asking if the reason Miss Lucy Fur was not there because she was at Brad and Angelina's wedding yesterday... our answer is "What wedding?".

Cheysuli tagged us on Friday for a book meme. We regretfully must pass since our pet human has been too lazy to bother um, we mean so busy working on other stuff. And the truth is the closest book to this iMac is a boring veterinary acupuncture book that would just put all of you to sleep. Forgive us Chey.

Also we felt that there is a far more important matter for The Pooses for Peace to spend time on today. From the Progressive blog Fire Dog Lake comes this info:

"John McCain is breaking the law.

When McCain's presidential campaign was in trouble, he opted-in to public financing through the primary, limiting him to a $54 million spending cap.

But laws aren't for "mavericks"...

McCain's latest spending report, filed by his own campaign, shows he has spent in excess of $58 million so far -- a public admission by his own hand that he has broken the law.

We filed a formal complaint to Federal Election Commission yesterday, and we want you to sign-on for a second delivery of signatures later this week.


Please read and co-sign the letter to the FEC right now.action.firedoglake.com"


We urge you to have your pet humans sign this.

We are now discussing to engage a Bite & Run Attack in the near future concerning this matter.

Have a great Sunday. Could someone please bring me some ginger ale and asprin?

More Volunteers.....

We are so excited that we are receiving more requests from other pooses to join the Poop & Run Brigade. Here are our latest recruits.

Sammy Meezer our Commanding Whapmeister who leads the Whap & Run Patrol has volunteered his new roomie Bill. We are sorry that we do not have a picture of him. Stop by their website and say congrats!


Dear Zevo,
Please accept our applications for the Poop & Run brigade. We have been waiting for an opportunity like this! Not only are we very good poopers, but we are very good at running fast after we poop!

If you need references, we live with Tao and Sarge who can vouch for this.

Love,

Poop and Run?

We received a letter from our dear friend Princess Guacamole on behalf of Tata the dog who would to volunteer her services to our Bite & Run Brigade.

Dearest Zevo, Members of The Pooses for Peace and The Bite & Run Brigade,

There is a dog in Tucson who wants to be part of the bite and run brigade, but she is very old and slow. Her name is Natasha, or "Tata" for short.

She is wondering if senior dogs can be part of a POOP AND RUN brigade. It has the advantage of a more lingering effect, persisting long after the pain of the bites are gone. (She is hoping especially that Congress has carpets.) She also pointed out that it is a homeopathic approach: poop for poop, as it were. Please let her know if you would be open to her idea.

viva la revolucion!

love,
princess guacamole

After much consideration and several staff meetings we have voted in favor of forming a Poop and Run division of the Bite & Run Brigade. Tata has been promoted to the Commanding Officer of the Poop and Run Patrol.

We are now accepting applications for all those who wish to volunteer. Dogs are invited. ........ in fact all animals are invited to participate. Our work is cut out for us this year!

OH...... if you would like to see The Bite Patrol featured in a movie please watch STARDUST. Such excellent Bite Patrol acting by the poose-cast deserving of an Academy Award!

May the Force be with us,
The Pooses for Peace

Max & Bun Buns

Meet Bun Buns and Max.....They live with us........we tolerate them. They make our pet human happy. (We think that our pet humans have watched the movie MirrorMask one too many times)

Since the theme of MirrorMask is "An extraordinary dream quest to rescue a world out of balance" we have invited Max & Bun Buns to be a part of Pooses for Peace. We think the world can be saved by a rag tag team of biting cats,with a flair for fashion, a few dogs and a magical pair of bunny slippers. We can no longer count on humans to save the planet. It is up to us.

We believe there is hope. We believe in magic. We believe that life is a Disney movie and the good guys always win... with the help of animals.

Hope Springs Eternal
xoxoxo
The Pooses for Peace

p.s. Join us for our Easter Film Festival at The Casino Calamari tomorrow. We will feature the movie Harvey and MirrorMask.

Plenty of ham, eggs and nip-tinis of all!

We have been napping and purring all week for those in need of our good thoughts. Though not much has changed in Tibet or the home-front we have decided to think positive happy thoughts today. As Scarlett O'Hara said"Oh la de da.. I will think about that tomorrow."

So.......it is time to celebrate Spring.. a time of hope....of new possibilities........and perhaps even some sun!

We invite all pooses to come celebrate Spring with us at our Casino Calamari. Put on your Easter bonnets, your spring garb and your dancing shoes! There will be a spring pagan ritual starting at 7:00pm followed by dancing and food.

Spring has sprung!
(ok... we have to pretend it sprung here in New England.... a few nip-tinis will help that!)

xoxoxoxoxo

Purring for Peace

Today is the anniversary of the Iraq War. We wanted to organize a huge Bite & Run Mission to bite all those who voted and funded for this atrocity. However since we are napping for the Dalai Lama this week we thought it best to continue a peaceful revolution with purrs and naps. ( Don't worry.. there will be plenty of biting in the future!)

Sending healing purrs and prayers out to all who have suffered these past 5 years from a needless war.
Sending purrs to all those in Tibet as well.
Sending purrs to all who need them no matter where or who they are.

Namaste
The Pooses for Peace

Om Mani Padme Nap

The violence in Tibet has heightened and we are worried about the Dalia Lama and the Tibetan people. We are napping extra hard today for all those who need our purrs and prayers. We hope that the UN and the USA will help...... however since Tibet has no oil we doubt if such a miracle will happen. Please take a minute and say a prayer for all those who need help today.

Namaste

A Day of Peaceful Napping

The Dalai Lama has asked declared a day of napping and prayers for all those in Tibet who are being persecuted by the Chinese. This is a tragic time for Tibet. Please help by sending healing purrs to those brave people.


Namaste

UPDATE! Thanks to the Cat Realm for the info on Tibet Blogs www.tibetblogs.com

one.. two... bite bite bite......one ..two....bite bite bite.....

We have decided that with all this biting and fighting for the good of this country we needed to do something positive as well. All biting and no play makes for a very cranky bunch of pooses.

We have hope that Cheysuli and/or someone like Obama will be inaugurated on 1-20-09 ending the dictatorship of the Chimp-decider.

As the bigot um, Congressman Steve King said... There will be dancing in the streets if Obama is elected. (How dare he not acknowledge Cheysuli at all!) We agree... there should be dancing for all in the streets to celebrate a day of hope and change for the USA. Why ? Because we are sure the entire planet will dance that day.

The Pooses for Peace have opened a school of dance to prepare everyone for this day of dance. Our instructors are some of the finest dancers. Learn how to be Footloose, to Flash-Dance,to shake it and twist and shout, how to disco, rumba, tango, salsa, bunny hop, hip hop, moon walk or waltz through the streets on 1-20-09 like a pro. We have even hired Elaine Benes from Seinfeld to teach "How not to dance in public"

Classes are filling up fast. Our operators are standing by.
Call now to register for this Spring semester. 1-800-Cha-ChaChaa

Be ready to dance with confidence in the streets on 1-20-09.
Oh what a feeling!!!!!!!!!!

Congressman Steve King Bit

FOX NEWS
DES MOINES, Iowa

On Friday, Iowa Congressman Steve King announced that terrorists would celebrate if Democratic candidate Barack Obama won the presidency.

King, a Republican, bases his prediction on Obama's pledge to pull troops out of Iraq, his Kenyan heritage and his middle name Hussein. The congressman added "They'll be dancing in the streets because of his middle name, they'll be dancing in the streets because of who his father was."

Yesterday during a radio talk show Congressman King was attacked and bit by several cats wearing black leather jackets and tiaras. One cat was wearing a jedi robe and swinging a light saber. Unconfirmed sources claim to have seen Mike Huckabee's ex dog, Dude wearing fishnets and a sequined t-shirt that said DANCE, running off with the cats.

Congressman King is listed in stable condition at an undisclosed location. The bite marks however formed a permanent scar that reads 1-20-09 Let's Dance!

Authorities have no leads on who the cats are. However we believe it is the work of the infamous Pooses for Peace Bite & Run Brigade. Members of this brigade have all changed their middle names to Hussein to show solidarity. Is this proof they are muslim cats? We at Fox News, a fair and balanced source of all information are sure they are.

Spokes-poose Zevo Hussein Calamari issued a statement this morning. "Congressman King is a buffoon and a bigot. He is absolutely wrong that the terrorists will dance in the streets on 1-20-09. If they did .... that means you could actually find them. No, Congressman King, it will be the citizens of this country who will be dancing in the streets when the Chimp-Decider and his gang of thugs are booted out of Washington. We invite everyone to dance with us on 1-20-09!"
