Emergency Session

Once again we have called an emergency session of Poose Congress to alert everyone of the latest blunder of GW the Chimp. We URGE your pet humans to sign this petition. Why should the tax payers bail out the richest, greediest companies of this country. (Instead that money should be used to feed homeless pooses and people and of course pay off our credit card debts!)

Oh... we decided to let Disneyland keep the statue of Johnny Depp at the Pirates of the Caribbean. This was a much more important issue to fight for!



Congress is on the brink of making a one-sided deal to give George W. Bush a blank check to bail out his pals - offering nearly (or perhaps more than) a trillion taxpayer dollars to Wall Street to cover its bad debts. That works out to somewhere between $2000 and $5000 from every American family. So what do the taxpayers get in return?

Nothing. No new regulation or oversight to help avoid this kind of crisis in the future. No public interest givebacks to help people whose homes are in the hands of the banks. Perhaps most shockingly of all, the taxpayers get absolutely no share in the profits if and when these finance giants bounce back, even though we are now assuming a great deal of the risk.

This is worse than a bad deal - this isn't a deal at all. This is a blank check to some of the richest companies in the world.

I just signed a petition calling on key members of Congress to impose a few sensible conditions to this bailout in order to protect the American people -- I hope you will too.

Please have a look and take action.

AP NEWS ALERT

This just in from Anaheim, CA...... Cats dressed as pirates led by Bite & Run Commander, Miss Lucy Fur (the cat who is once again off her meds) have taken over The Pirates of the Caribbean Ride and have taken the Johnny Depp statue hostage until their demands are met.

One demand is that the song will be changed to the words "Yo ho Yo Ho a Pooses' Life for me" The other demand is that pirate cats must be added to the decor of the ride, since there is a dog in it.

The same incident happened in 2006. Doctors feel that the Yo Ho Yo Ho song has a hypnotic effect on cats taking medication. The theory is that there is a subliminal message in the song urging cats to stop taking their anxiety medication. Miss Lucy Fur has been on Oprah several times and even bit Dr Phil the last time she was on his show.
The celebrity cats are friends with Johnny Depp. No comment has been issued by Mr Depp at this time.

Swat teams and riot police have been called in... we will keep you posted.

Now back to more propaganda. Sarah Palin has a new line of lipstick called Pitt Bull Lips available only at Wal-mart.

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!

It is a Holy Day for all pastafarians ( devotees of the Flying Spaghetti Monster) today. May you be blessed by his Noodly Appendage. Ramen!

All pooses are invited to our private party at Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Special guest...... Captain Jack Sparrow! Be ready to swoon.

Please wear your patch and pirate attire.

Arrrrrrrrrr Arrrrrrrrrr shiver me timbers.. there will be plenty rum for all.. arrrrrrrrr

Sing along with us!

YO HO (A PIRATE'S LIFE FOR ME)
Lyrics by Xavier Atencio and music by George Bruns

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot,
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We extort, we pilfer, we filch, and sack,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Maraud and embezzle, and even high-jack,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We kindle and char, inflame and ignite,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We burn up the city, we're really a fright,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

We're rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We kindle and char, inflame and ignite,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We burn up the city, we're really a fright,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

We're rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

Cats Help Invent Post-its

AP
Breaking News

Not only did John McCain invent the Blackberry (even though he cannot use the internet or knows how to email) unconfirmed sources have reported that the celebrity cats of The Pooses for Peace helped create Post-its along with Romy and Michele.

Miss Zevo Hussein Calamari issued a statement early this morning; " I believe that John McCain invented blackberries, strawberries and blueberries since he is older than God. I personally chose the color Blue to match my eyes when designing Post-its. Miss Boo chose pink, Miss Lucy Fur chose yellow and Nubi chose that funky lime green. Post-its are
one of the most important inventions of this century. Now pass me a Cosmo please. "

Poose for Peace Alert

We just heard the sad news about Daisy the Curly cats sister, Pixie who went over the rainbow this weekend. We are sending our love and healing purrs to her and her family. Eat a banana in honor of Pixie. It was her favorite. Her spirit lives on.



Hi everyone,

We want to thank all of you for the get well purrs and thoughts for Nubi. He is recovering and starting to be his old poose-head self. (peeing in the fireplace where the Buddha alter is in protest of his new cat food!)

Our pet human is working extra long hours and hopes to have a normal schedule in place soon. Maybe then we can visit you all regularly.

Miss Boo and all of us at the Pooses for Peace Headquaters have just heard about this latest evil plot by John McCain. Here are the details and a petition your pet humans can sign. We will be so happy when this election is over!

Thanks
zevo hussein calamari



Dear Friend:

John McCain is actively working to stop people who have lost their homes to foreclosure from voting this November.

McCain and the Republican Party in Macomb County are using foreclosure lists to suppress voters and deny them from exercising their constitutional right (Michigan Messenger, 9/10/08).

McCain stood with the Bush administration on economic policies that have led to our catastrophic foreclosure crisis, which has forced countless families in Michigan and across the nation out of their homes.

Please go to progressmichigan.org/nohomenovote and join me in signing a petition calling on McCain to stop his campaign to suppress voters who have lost their homes.

Thanks!

we are thankful!

I'm home! Oh Aunty Em! There is no place like home... my birdie toys, my pillow... my pet humans!

Thank you so much for all your prayers, purrs and get well wishes. The trip back from the hospital was uneventful.... no tow trucks or blue meanies. My pet human was happy about that!

I would not allow her to put a recent picture of me up on the post. The vets gave me a poodle haircut. It is very embarrassing. Zevo keeps calling me Poodle Boy.

I do want to thank all the vets and staff at the Atlantic Veterinary Hospital in Marblehead. I was treated like a celebrity. Everyone is so nice there. I got so many kisses from all the girls there.

My pet human is working lots of long hours and she apologizes for not being able to help us visit other blogs. Since Zevo will not help pay the vet bill the humans will have to work it off. Zevo is not too happy to have me home. She said i stink. I missed her anyway!

Thank you all so much. Love is all around!
may the force be with you
love
nubi wan kenobi
ps i am hoping to return to working for Chey very soon.

Back to the hospital............

Wednesday morning

Nubi is back in the hospital. He had another rough night last night . We are all hoping he will be released tomorrow. Thank you all for your prayers and purrs.

I am sorry i cannot visit other blogs and thank everyone personally.

Thank you
nubi's pet humans

i'm home!

Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for all the get well wishes and purrs. I am finally home. I am still kind of groggy.

It was a rough ride home from the vet. My pet human was driving her little vw bug when she got pulled over by a large car with blue flashing lights and a very mean man in blue. He yelled at her for stopping at a yellow light and her tires were touching the pedestrian walk. She apologized and asked that he please be nice as she had a very sick cat in the car.

NO...... he was not nice. He then told her that the car registration had expired in August. (WHAT? no? what? Wait... no i didn't get anything in the mail.) AND that she had the choice of either being towed by the cops or finding someone to tow it home. He did not care that she had me in a crate. He did not care it was hotter than hell and we had to wait for a tow truck for 45 minutes. He could have written a fix it ticket. NO... she had to call AAA and we had to ride home in a tow truck.

I am sure this cop was at the RNC. It can be the only reason he glared at me in my crate with such disdain. My pet human is trying very hard to forgive him and she hopes that he learns some compassion.

However... we would like to say thank you soooo much to all those who helped us yesterday.... the very nice tow truck driver, our neighbors, and friends and the nice people at the Atlantic Vet hospital.

Since the pet human is working double to pay for these past few days we will not be posting or visiting much.
Thank you all for the love and healing prayers.
Spread some compassion today!

love
nubi

Jedi Poose Hospitalized

NEWS ALERT

Nubi wan Kenobi was rushed to the hospital early Friday morning. He had a repeat episode of crystals blocking his urethra. (OUCH!) Nubi is doing fine and we hope to have him home on Monday.

We feel that the cause of this must have been due to the toxicity of those nasty people at the RNC. His outstanding bravery in the latest Bite & Run should merit him a purple heart from the Pooses for Peace.

We will keep you posted on how he is doing. Thank you for keeping him in your purrs.

I am sorry that we will not be able to visit many blogs this week. The pet human is having a meltdown.

NEWS ALERT... BREAKING NEWS FROM THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION..............

CNN
THIS BREAKING NEWS JUST IN....

Sarah Palin, VP nominee along with several other prominent republicans have just been attacked by what appears to be a pack of cats wearing "Save the Polar Bears" t-shirts under leather jackets. Some wore tiaras. One was in a Jedi robe carrying a light saber.

During the Bite & Run there were also cats, dogs and some wolves leading Whap & Run brigades, Poot & Run patrols and and the most appalling of all .... the Poop & Run teams stormed the convention hall.

Delegates fled the convention gagging. Cindy McCain's designer yellow shoes had to be thrown away. Secret service protected John McCain from an attack but he was seen having a temper tantrum after it. (After all, incase you have not heard by now, he was a POW.)

Unconfirmed witnesses also claim to have seen Bullwinkle Moose and Rocket J Squirrel with the cats. An inebriated delegate who wished to remain anonymous claims to also have seen Dino the dinosaur, from the Flintstones running with the cats. He also saw a dog in drag wearing fishnets and a glitter tee that said "save the wolves" who claimed to be Mike Huckabee's ex-bird dog.

The attack came unexpectedly while Palin was delivering her speech and stressing the importance of educating our youth that the earth is flat and this should be taught in schools.

She was about to give her recipe for moose and wolf stew when the cats appeared from nowhere and attacked. Palin was rushed to an undisclosed hospital and is in stable condition. Unlike other Bite & Runs, Palin did not loose any jewelry. Tom Delay did lose his toupee.

Karl Rove aka "turd blossom" was also attacked especially hard by the Poop & Run patrol. He blamed the liberal media for making the cats, known as the Pooses for Peace, celebrities and planning this commotion. He is also in stable condition but lost his blackberry in the attack. His shoes and suit had to be burned.

Crews are now at the scene of the attack lighting incense and fumigating the hall.

Extra security such as BLACKWATER was hired to be on the look-out for an attack by the cats. Authorities are baffled how they were able to pull off such a stunt. No cats were captured or arrested. Security cameras were turned off during the attack, thus there is no evidence at this time.

Spokes-poose Zevo Hussein Calamari issued a statement via satellite : " Bleeeee eeeeew uck..... cough.. what Bite and Run? ack ack ....hand me that tequila would you please. Who would vote for a gun toting woman that wears Wal-mart plastic bangles? ack ack... more tequila please."


Stay tuned to CNN for more coverage at the Republican Convention.
Coming up next... Bristol Palin gets mommy lessons from Britney Spears.

Nothing up my sleeve.........presto

FOX NEWS ALERT

Unconfirmed sources have reported that Bullwinkle the Moose and Rock J Squirrel have joined the Bite and Run Brigade of the infamous liberal terrorist heathen group known as The Pooses for Peace.

No word of why these two famous characters would want to be associated with the celebrity cats. Internet rumors claim that Bullwinkle wants revenge for the death of his cousin Ralph the Moose who was hunted and killed by Republican VP pick Sarah Palin.

Republicans are concerned that the cats and their cohorts may show up some time this week at the convention and cause trouble. Delegates and candidates are urged to wear ankle guards. Please leave your valuables locked in a safe place. Blackwater has been brought in for extra security.

Stay tuned for more FOX NEWS..... Next up... Sarah Palin talks about why the earth really is flat and dinosaurs are fictional...................


shhhhh! Zevo here.. just wanted to tell you that the Bite and Run Brigades are on Red Alert. Report to your commanding officers....

OH... and the pet human is working extra (AGAIN) this week. .. so we are really sorry if we cannot visit everyone. Plus she is still blaming the heat and the ghosts for not being able to be on the computer so much.

Still In Switzerland

Ciao ciao!

We are still in Switzerland, recovering from some plastic surgery and tummy tucks ..um ...i mean the stress of life. We all are going to look fabulous when we return to the states!

Everyone had such a wonderful time at Boo's party. We would like to thank all of you. If you did not attend please do read the posts below for details.

My pet human does not seem concerned about my blog. I feel it should be her most important priority...however she feels that working as much as she can is more important. And that is all she has been doing... well she worries a lot too, so there is not much time for anything else. I think she needs to re-watch The Secret, or take a vacation.

Also there is the small dilemma that the iMac is now in the "office" in the attic and it has been very hot up there. It is not good for the computer and we have been unable to visit blogs that have lots of stuff on them.

The pet human also claims there are ghost in the attic and is scared to be up there after 7:00pm. I think we have been living in Salem too long!

Have a wonderful weekend. We will try to visit. ... if we do not please understand!

xoxoxoxo
ciao ciao
zevo & the pooses for peace

We are experiencing technical difficulties and are unable to visit many blogs or post the latest updates on The Pooses for Peace (who are all still in Switzerland).

We are sorry we cannot visit your sites. Our old iMac does not have enough umph to open some of the more elaborate sites with videos, cool graphics, etc.

We are asking everyone NOT to send us any emails with attachments, forwarded emails with other peoples' email addresses stacked up in the cc box.

Have a wonderful week and we hope to remedy this situation soon.

The Day After....

BBC
Monaco

Unconfirmed sources have reported that celebrity cat , Miss Boo of the infamous Pooses for Peace was given a topaz ring by George Clooney, last night at her surprise birthday gala No one knows if it was a generous friendship ring.... or something more serious. Clooney and Miss Boo were seen kissing and cuddling most of the night.

Dignitaries, diplomats and celebrities joined in the festivities for Miss Boo along with hundreds of her cat friends, and members of The Pooses for Peace.

Princess Caroline of Monaco hosted the gala at the Monaco Castle. Entertainment was provided by U2, Bette Midler and The Eagles and other musical friends of the cats.

An "all you can eat ham, cheese and chicken and catnip buffet" was provided by Rachel Ray. Al Gore gave the birthday speech and thanked Miss Boo and her partners Zevo Calamari and Miss Lucy Fur for the fine work the Pooses for Peace had done.

Presidential candidate Cheysuli was there with her bodyguard Jedi cat, Nubi wan Kenobi. Fashion icon Daisy the Curly Cat was seen dancing with Lux and later with Mickey. Kaze, Latte and Chase dined with Jennifer Aniston and consoled her all night as she was distraught about her break up with that John Mayer.

House of Versace provided couture for the cats. A dart game with Karl Rove's face on the board was given as a gift by Mr Hendrix and his twin Bendrix. Bendrix was asked by The Eagles to sing Happy Birthday to Boo. This was their way of forgiving him for trashing a guitar at their last concert.

Sammy, Miles and Billy all part of the Bite and Run & Poot and Run Brigades gave a Special Forces demonstration. Incense had to be lit after the Poot demonstration by Billie. A few glasses of champagne were whapped across the dance floor. No one was injured.

Newlyweds Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi flew in to Monaco after their wedding this past weekend to wish Boo and happy birthday. " I would not miss Boo's birthday for the world!" said DeGeneres. Later Kilroy , Adan and Fat Eric were seen dancing with the newly weds. Karen Jo was spotted with Tao and Sarge doing tequila shots. Bubba the cat brought Bonnie Raitt as his date.

There were so many cats present we apologize if we have not mentioned them all. Other cats seen were Zippy, Sadie, Zoey, Moki, Mrs Oz, Karl, the Topcats, The Hotcats, and too many more to remember.

The party lasted until dawn and there were hung over cats seen all over Monaco in the early morning. Monaco authorities report that some of the dignitaries invited by Princess Caroline reported missing earrings and bracelets. "Too much alcohol is to blame for this, not those dear cats." said Princess Caroline.

In unrelated news a few pieces of art and statues were said to be missing from the castle.

Miss Boo, Lucy Fur and Zevo Calamari have been seen checking into a clinic in Switzerland known for tummy tucks and youth serum treatments this morning. The cats deny the claim.

happy birthday miss boo!

with love,
from all your friends

Monday

We would like to send a bouquet of poose blossoms and a round of nip-tinis as a thank you to our friends at our cat pictures for featuring Nubi and his acupuncture session. Please visit their site and say hi.

Please forgive us for not being able to visit and say hi to everyone. The pet human is very busy lately and she said she does not have time for luxuries like posting on cat blogs. (I can only say that we feel it is not a luxury but her responsibility to post!)

We hope to visiting real soon. Thanks for all the lovely messages and purrs.

We're back!

We are back from touring with the Eagles. Wow! Pink champagne on ice ! In the long run we really did have a peaceful easy feeling. Though at one point we heard a rumor that... you can checkout any time you like, but you can never leave! (sound of guitar wailing in the background)

Thanks to all those pooses who attended the concerts and the parties.

Nubi is feeling much better and back to being a poose-head. Desperado, why don’t you come to your senses? As you can see i am sniffing him to make sure. He smells like stinky Chinese herbs to me. (Please do not mistake this as a kiss.)

We have not been able to visit blogs this week. (Just leave a message maybe i'll call.)The pet human is working extra and has moved the mac up into the attic office which have been unbearably hot. She said it is like typing in a sauna. We are hoping the weather cools down and she chills out soon.

Have a great weekend and thanks again for all the healing purrs! We will be planning Boo's surprise party real soon. All pooses will be invited. It is going to be quite the bash too!

Eagles Concert in Boston....

BOSTON - Touring with their first new record of new material The Eagles performed at a sell out concert last night at the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston.

Playing to a sold-out crowd of 12,694 (and wearing black coats and ties — a good look, updated without being uptight), the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers — Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Timothy B. Schmit and Joe Walsh — started off with four songs off last year’s Long Road Out of Eden.

However, most fans were waiting for the old classics to be played and went wild when Joe Walsh introduced The Pooses for Peace, as they did back-up vocals for Hotel California and Witchy Woman.

Celebrity cats Zevo Calamari, Miss Boo and Lucy Fur all wore black leather jackets with red Manolos and sported witch hats instead of their usual tiaras. The band sang a get well ditty to Nubi wan Kenobi and announced that they are backing presidential candidate Cheysuli for 2008.

Other members of the Pooses for Peace Bite & Run brigades attended the concert and after parties courtesy of The Eagles. The invite was a thank you to all those cats who purred so hard while Nubi wan Kenobi was ill.

We apologize that we cannot name all the cats however we know that Lux, Miles, Sammy, Billie, Daisy, Mr Hendrix, Bendrix, Mickey, Gemini, Cheysuli, The Hotties, Riley, Tiki, Rex, Kilroy, Boy, Smeagol, Strider, Pixel, China Cat, Meowers from Missouri, Purrageous Pirates, PB & J, ML, Debra, Dragonheart & Merlin, The Cat Realm cats, Kaze, Latte, Chase, Victor Tabbycat, Tazo, the Zoolatry cats, Marilyn Monreow, Tao, Sarge, Bubba and at least 50 other cats a few dogs and Karen Jo were dancing and rocking out to the music. (If we left anyone out we apologize!)

The Eagles have asked the cats to go on tour with them for the rest of the summer.

Zevo Calamari, spokes-poose for The Pooses for Peace issued a statement. "We are honored to join The Eagles on the rest of their summer tour. We thank them for their generosity in inviting all our poose friends as well. We will not be able to blog as much during these next few weeks since we will be so busy. Thank you all for purring for Nubi wan Kenobi this past week. He is feeling much better and acting like a poose-head um.. himself again. "

Thinking the microphone was off Miss Calamari broke out into song

I go to parties, sometimes until four
It's hard to leave when you can't find the door
It's tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybody's so different, I haven't changed

Life's been good to us soooooo far.............................."

Shhhhh.... i am pretending to nap so the pet human does not shove anymore Chinese herbs down me. She can be such a pest with those herbs and needles. And the male pet human keeps making me take this nasty pink oozy stuff. Bleeeeeuck! Leave me alone! Enough!

I am feeling a little better. I am sure it is from all those purrs and prayers from all you wonderful pooses. Thank you so much.

I was allowed on the balcony all day today. Zevo is so jealous that i am getting all this attention. It is fun to see her so annoyed. The female pet human is driving me bonkers with all the worrying. I do hope someone pours her a nice big glass of wine soon.

I hope to be able to visit everyone soon. Please be patient with us. Our mac is really old and some of the cat blogs are just too cool and loaded with fun stuff for it. .. so it crashes alot. (Do you think those herbs and needles could help the Mac?)

Thanks again for all your purrs and love. You are all such good friends!

p.s. I AM NOT JEALOUS! He is faking it .. i am so sure.. he is still a poose-head.

Wookie visits Nubi wan Kenobi

The Mighty Wookie, Zach came to visit Nubi wan Kenobi to bring healing powers of the Force.

Wookies and Jedis are the best of friends. ......Ok .....well maybe Hans Solo was not a Jedi but he did hang out with Jedi Master, Luke Skywalker and the Mighty Chewbacca!

The FORCE is strong with these two. This picture does not do the Wookie justice! He is a very big Wookie.. (part bearded collie and part chocloate lab) The Force is strong in his family. (Pay no attention to the mess behind the Wookie! )

We would like to thank everyone who has been sending healing purrs and good thoughts our way. Nubi went to the vet today. He is OK.. not out of the woods yet, but we are hoping that he will soon pass this critical stage this weekend. He is getting the best of Eastern and Western medicine. We are so happy that our vet is so open to alternative medicine!

I will do my best to visit everyone's post next week to thank you all for everything. Until then... thank you all! We appreciate all the love and wonderful messages you have been sending.

Have a great weekend.

thank you so much!
jeanie

I need a sign to let me know you're here
All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere
I need to know that things are gonna look up
'Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup

When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head
When you feel the world shake from the words that are said


And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels

I won't give up if you dont give up

I need a sign to let me know you're here
'Cause my TV set just keeps it all from being clear
I want a reason for the way things have to be
I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me

And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels

I won't give up if you dont give up
I won't give up if you dont give up
I won't give up if you dont give up
I won't give up if you dont give up

I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me

And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels...........

Day 2......

This is my second acupuncture treatment. I am a believer in acupuncture! It felt so good i fell asleep again! I am feeling much better though, my pet human is still very worried. Humans love to worry.. why is that?

Thank you all for sending healing purrs and thoughts. I am sorry we have not been able to visit many of your blogs this week. Have a wonderful weekend if we don't get to wish you one tomorrow!

Thanks
nubi wan kenobi

Nubi wan Kenobi gets Acupuncture!

I know the needles are hard to see since they are red and the blanket behind me is red too. There are 5 in me!

Today i was just not feeling too good so my pet human gave me an acupuncture treatment and forced me to take some nasty Chinese herbs....... i was very brave too. I even fell asleep during the treatment. She used the laser on me. I did try to bite her when she tried to needle spleen 9... not sure why she wanted to do that or what spleen 9 means... but she massaged it instead.

I am feeling a little better now. My humans are hoping that the herbs kick in soon. None of us want to go to the vet this week. Please send healing purrs our way!

Thanks
nubi wan kenobi

p.s. If you have not signed the petition in the post below please do SOON! It would make us all feel so much better. Thanks

Pooses for Peace Emergency Session Called

An emergency session of The Pooses for Peace was called on Monday night in hopes of urging congress to send Karl Rove to jail.

The celebrity cats had just returned from a birthday weekend with Nelson Mandela and his family and were seen staggering off the plane wearing tiaras and leather jackets in the wee hours last night. Unconfirmed sources claim the cats were hung over.


The cats have had several run ins with Mr Rove, affectionately referred to as Turd Blossom by GWB, in the past. The cats were accused of several Bite & Run attacks which involved him and many of his cronies. To read about just a few of these incidents click here!

The attacks have been featured on CNN, FOX NEWS, Larry King, The Daily Show and even David Letterman.


Zevo Calamari, spokes-poose for the Pooses for Peace issued a statement:
"It is in our best interest to put this huge slab of porcine butter behind bars. He outed our dear CIA agent Valerie Plame. He lied about the weapons of mass destruction, he was behind most of the dirty deeds done by the Bush administration and he is pure evil. I implore you to sign the petition so that Congress once and for all will do its job. Congress.....Don't make us bring out our Bite & Run brigades." Miss Calamari thought the microphones were off when she said under her breath "Oh God there is just not enough tequila or listerine to get rid of the taste of Old Turd-Blossom.


According to the Credo website which is part of the movement to jail Rove, "All we have to do is pressure the 40 members of the House Judiciary Committee, make them hold Rove in contempt and send him to jail. We've never had such a direct opportunity to hold Rove accountable. No, this is not enough punishment for his years and years of crimes, but it's a huge start, and will send a very clear message to the entire Bush administration.


Our friends at Brave New Films put together this video to explain the issues surrounding Rove's failure to testify before Congress, and why Rove should be held in contempt and sent to jail. We've teamed up with Brave New Films and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington to hold Karl Rove accountable. Check out Send Karl Rove to Jail, and sign our petition to ensure that the House Judiciary Committee holds Rove in contempt."

Happy Enlightenment Day

Today is the Buddhist holiday which celebrates the Enlightenment of Avalokiteśvara, also known in some Buddhist traditions as Kuan Yin. She is the deity of compassion.

Even though Nubi wan Kenobi is a Jedi, he also is a devotee of Kuan Yin and brings her toy mice during his daily meditations.

Namaste!
Spread some compassion today.

Pooses for Peace in Africa

Associated Press

South Africa's elder statesman Nelson Mandela is marking his 90th birthday Friday in a private celebration with his family and friends The Pooses for Peace at his home in the Eastern Cape. The celebrity cats arrived in Africa late last night and will be staying with Nelson Mandela and his family for the weekend.

Mr Mandela made the following comment" If a ninety-year-old may offer some unsolicited advice on this occasion, it would be that you, irrespective of your age, should place human solidarity [and] a concern for others at the center of the values by which you live," he said.

He added that all animals should be treated with the upmost respect and compassion from humans. And reminded those who believe they are superior to animals that they are not.

The Ashram of The Flying Spaghetti Monster

I just arrived in India this morning. My pet human is in a stable mental state and her hot flashes um... i mean ...the heat seems to be subsided. (for now!)

We are at the Ashram of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in Kashmir, India. He is not a Hindu Diety, however the cult has become very popular here. We are lighting incense so that we are blessed by his Noodly appendage. (My pet human is a devotee of the FSM)

The mantra is "RAmen" I guess we are now officially all pastafarians.

Shanti Shanti Ramen!

Pooses for Peace in India..

Shanti Shanti!

Miss Lucy Fur and i have decided to go to India. My pet human is there and we thought we could mooch off um, stay with her. We ran out of food and tequila at the house. It was fortunate she left a credit card for us to book first class tickets to Kashmir! (Of course.. we had to really look for it. It was hidden in a locked safe.)

Zevo had to return to Salem. Her pet human was either having a melt down or was melting. We are not really sure. It is hard to understand what OH MY GOD I AM BURSTING INTO FLAMES means. Is she Moses? (I do know there was alot of crying, and a bottle of wine involved and rumors of tequila.) Humans can be such ninnies!

I do hope Zevo can join us later this week. Nubi is still working as Chey's bodyguard.

We are at a shrine dedicated to the Hindu deity, Ganesha, the Remover of Obstacles. He is also the Deity of good fortune so we are lighting several sticks of incense for everyone!

Later we will go to the market and buy earrings and a sari to match our eyes. These women know how to decorate themselves!

Oh... our masala chicken is here...

Namaste!
Boo-ananda

ps... we are hoping to be able to visit more blogs sometime this week. It has been difficult with Zevo's pet human refusing to sit at the computer in the heat .. or was it a melt down? Thanks for being patient. Om Shanti Shanti

Greetings from purgatory...

.... or maybe this really is hell?

Since Zevo is visiting Boo and Lucy Fur in San Diego and Nubi is still working as Cheysuli's bodyguard, i need to take a few days off from this computer. As Zevo's slave it is very difficult to actually take time off.

My kitchen office does not have AC. The humidity and the heat have fried my brain cells.

I am sorry that The Pooses for Peace will not be making many comments on other cat blogs or posting on theirs until the weather changes.

I am also sorry to report that the Senate sold out today by voting for the stinky FISA bill that allows the USA to spy on its citizens AND gives the telecom corporations immunity. So maybe this really is hell.

Hoping for a cooler day and better news soon!

Zevo's pet human,
Princess Calamari

p.s. Does anyone know where Zevo keeps that stash of tequila and margarita mix?

Someone please take this kid away....

Um...like...EXcuuuuuuuse me.... Hello..... is anyone home? I am very busy and important and do not have time to babysit this...this.... wretched um, adorable child.

I have a party to go get dressed for. Boo is expecting me to help make nip-tinis and set out the buffet and Zevo is at the airport waiting for us to pick her up.

I think this cute strapless, Dolce Gabbana dress should do for tonight....hmmm where is my tiara? JUDD you sneaky puppy.... you better take that tiara out of your mouth now ... i said NOW... drop it. Sit. Stay. Go fetch me a nip-tini. NOW!

xoxoxo
miss lucy fur

p.s. We apologize for not visiting everyone this week. Besides that fact that we are very busy and important, my secretary is working extra long hours this week!.... Someone has to pay for our Versace and tequila habits.

Zevo call me..............

Ciao Zevo....

Please call me!
My pet human is leaving for India and we have the house to ourselves. And i am thinking.... PARTY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Woohooo....

Try to catch the red eye tomorrow and i will pick you up at the airport. Miss Lucy Fur is already making catering plans for us!

I hope my pet human remembers to bring me back a nose ring and a sari to match my eyes!

shanti! shanti!

Happy Birthday to HH the Dalai Lama

"All sentient beings gave the right to life. It is obvious that mammals, birds and fish all feel pleasure and pain, and that therefore they do not like pain any more than we do. When we abuse animals, simply for a profit motive, even if we leave the Buddhist point of view aside, such action contradicts elementary moral values. "



We will be napping for world peace today!
Namaste,
The Pooses for Peace

the party continues....

The Pooses for Peace Fourth of July Party continued through the night and is still going strong today.

Special guest John Prine was joined on stage by back-up vocalists Zevo Calamari, Miss Boo and Miss Lucy Fur. Also singing harmony with the ensemble were Miles and Sammy Meezer.

Sing along with John and the Pooses for Peace. This song is dedicated to all you folks who think that wearing a flag pin is mandatory to prove you are patriotic!

Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore
© John Prine

While digesting Reader's Digest
In the back of a dirty book store,
A plastic flag, with gum on the back,
Fell out on the floor.
Well, I picked it up and I ran outside
Slapped it on my window shield,
And if I could see old Betsy Ross
I'd tell her how good I feel.

Chorus:
But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
They're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.

Well, I went to the bank this morning
And the cashier he said to me,
"If you join the Christmas club
We'll give you ten of them flags for free."
Well, I didn't mess around a bit
I took him up on what he said.
And I stuck them stickers all over my car
And one on my wife's forehead.

Repeat Chorus:

Well, I got my window shield so filled
With flags I couldn't see.
So, I ran the car upside a curb
And right into a tree.
By the time they got a doctor down
I was already dead.
And I'll never understand why the man
Standing in the Pearly Gates said...

"But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
We're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more."

POOSE NEWS ALERT! Tell Senator Obama: Hang up on Big Telecom

We are back from our Pooses for Peace convention early due to this urgent matter. This spying on Americans is getting really old. We are so tired of organizing Bite & Runs for this situation. And we really hope that we do not have to bite Senator Obama. .....However if he caves into the big telecom corporations and the President Chimp will we have no option. Please have your pet humans sign this petition. Stop the spying!

And of course ... this is why everyone should vote for Cheysuli!
xoxoxo
The Pooses for Peace

This week, Senators Dodd and Feingold won a battle in the fight to stop the FISA capitulation. In an attempt to stop retroactive telecom immunity, they delayed a vote on the bill until after the July 4th recess. This buys us more time to shore up the votes needed to defeat the bill. However, it's unlikely we'll succeed without real support from leaders in Congress, most of whom have already abandoned us.

Senator Reid caved in long ago, and Speaker Pelosi folded just last week. There is one leader left who could make a difference and support our cause: Senator Barack Obama.

Back in December, Senator Obama's office released a statement that he "unequivocally opposes giving retroactive immunity to telecommunications companies."¹ On Wednesday, however, Obama said in a press conference that "My view on FISA has always been that the issue of the phone companies per se is not one that overrides the security interests of the American people."²

Senator Obama still has time to make this right, but it won't happen unless we all work together to hold him accountable.

The delay in the FISA vote gives senators a new chance to stand up for the Constitution -- will Senator Obama stand with them? Sign this petition and urge Senator Obama to vote his conscience and stand by his previous statement: No retroactive immunity for telecoms. No caving on the constitution.

Deja Vu

Associated Press
Windsor Castle, Merry Olde England

Scotland Yard has reported that Queen Elizabeth is missing her crown. Again! The Queen noticed her crown was gone last night while dressing for dinner. Unconfirmed sources claim they heard the Queen screaming " Bloody HELL.... those damn cats were here again"

Security at the Royal Palace say there were no signs of a break-in or other clues to how the theft occurred. Cameras in the palace were mysteriously turned off on the weekend. The Queen's maids reported that there were fewer mice roaming the wine cellar than usual.

This is the second time her Majesty's crown has disappeared. The celebrity cats, The Pooses for Peace were blamed for the 2006 incident, but charges were dropped when Barney Bush ( dog of W) was caught wearing the crown. Click here to read about Barney!

The Queen still holds a grudge against the Pooses for Peace cats after Miss Lucy Fur began dating her beloved Corgi. It is now rumored that Lucy Fur is dating James Bond aka Daniel Craig, The corgi has been in rehab since.

Spokes-poose for the Pooses for Peace Zevo Calamari (who just happened to be with her friends in England over the weekend celebrating solstice) was asked to make a comment about the incident. " What crown? Queen Who? Bloody shame, luv."

Happy Summer Solstice

Please join us at Stonehedge for a Summer Solstice celebration. There will be chanting, dancing, singing and merriment for all.

A special Midsummer's Eve wine with ham and cheese will be served after the ceremony.

All pooses are invited. Please bring your own broomstick or light saber.

blessed be!

I love Paris .....

Happy Full Moon! We are still in Paris and having a divine time. The full moon over the Eiffel Tower is stunning.

Miss Lucy Fur is in head over heels in love with Mr. 007. Miss Boo and George Clooney are now an item officially. I am in love with France. Isn't love grand?

May i have another glass of Pastis 51 s’il vous plaît?

"Time to Draft Pooses"

FOX NEWS

Today at a press conference John McCain was asked how it was possible for the US troops to remain in Iraq for 100 more years, as he predicted in an earlier press conference this year.

His answer ...." When I am elected President of the United States, I will immediately reinstate the draft for all pooses. Pets are not needed here in the good ole' USA. They have it way too good here. They should be serving their country fighting terrorists in oil producing countries. Uncle Sam wants all pooses to enlist. And if they don not voluntarily.. then soon it will be mandatory. Those who resist will be sent to Gitmo. Torture is good for morale. Those damn Pooses for Peace will soon be wearing orange jumps suits as soon as I am sworn in.

After all.. that is what Jesus would want.

Vote for me. I am a maverick."

Zevo Calamari, spokes-poose for Pooses for Peace who is currently in France was asked to make a comment about John McCain's statement. " John McWho? Orange is a horrid color and Jesus would never vote for such a buffoon. Could someone pour me another Nip-tini? "

Meanwhile back in San Diego......

Ha!!!!!! While Lucy Fur is in Italy smooching with 007, i have taken over the house, the yard and i am sure the humans have forgotten all about her.... all mine ... mine.............. mine! ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Could someone please throw the ball for me.

judd the puppy

Love is in the air...........

Unconfirmed sources claim that celebrity cat, Miss Lucy Fur had a blind date this past weekend with Daniel Craig ("Bond, James, Bond"), the gorgeous blonde Brit, thanks to pal George Clooney. The infamous Pooses for Peace founders are staying with Clooney at his Lake Como home in Italy. Clooney was seen canoodling with Miss Boo at a small Italian cafe over the weekend. As a favor to Miss Boo, George set up the blind date.

Miss Lucy Fur met Mr Craig at one of the Bond movie premiers while she was there with the Queen's corgis. she felt the sparks across the room, but he didn't approach because she was being tailed around the room by those little short legged dogs who constantly nipped at him whenever he got near to her. Close friends say they have never seen her look happier.

Zevo Calamari stayed in Milan over the weekend with gal pal Donnatella Versace planning the 2008 fall line. No word has been leaked on who Miss Calamari has been dating.

In other Poose News, Jedi Poose, Nubi wan Kenobi was seen dancing with Queen Amidala at a club on Naboo. His boss, Presidential candidate Cheysuli gave him a few days off so he could celebrate being adopted 2 years ago.

A statement from the Pooses for Peace to other cat bloggers was issued today Because our humans are too lazy to spend time on the computer , which happens to be in the room with no AC, we will not be able to visit much if it continues to be hotter than hell here. um...."Due to the time zone difference we are sorry we may not be able to visit as many blogs this week."

Happy Anniversary Nubi wan Kenobi

As Queen of Naboo i have declared this day, the ninth of June a Jedi Holiday. This is the day that Jedi Poose, Nubi wan Kenobi was adopted by his pet humans. I decree that this is a day of celebration and festivities for all.

May the Force be with you!
Queen Amidala

Back at Lake Como

Ciao Bella!

We are back in Lake Como staying at George's Italian villa. What a dear man he is, to invite all of us over along with Miss Boo. Now that he and his Hollywood girlfriend have officially split Miss Boo will not have to lie about their relationship to the paparazzi. We are so happy for her.

We decided that Boo and George need some alone time so Miss Lucy Fur and i will be having a shopping spree this weekend in Milan. Donnatella invited us both to pose in Vogue magazine wearing her new Versace summer line.

There is no hurry for us to get back to the USA. Not much going on and we are burnt out from all those Bite & Runs. We need to rest up before the elections. Judd the puppy is making poor Lucy Fur nuts. It is best she can rest here far away from him. Nubi is still working as Cheysuli's bodyguard so he did not come to Italy with us. ... just as well since the Italians don't get the whole Jedi look!

We are sorry if we are not around to visit with everyone these next couple days. With the time zone thing, and all the wine, shoes and parties we just don't want to hang out on the computer ! You are all welcome to come visit us. George has plenty of room. However, if you are part of the Poop & Run Brigade you will have to stay in the stables. So sorry!

Ciao for now!

Coffee Jihad

Early this past May, Dunkin’ Donuts began running an ad on its Web site and others, featuring the celebrity chef Rachael Ray, chef at the trendy spot Hamburger Mary's, owned by The Pooses for Peace. Rachel was holding a cup of the company’s crappy calorie filled iced coffee while wearing a black-and-white fringed scarf.

A few days later, the conservative blog Little Green Footballs posted an item that likened Ms. Ray’s scarf to the type typically worn by Muslim extremists. The blog said that the ads “casually promote the symbol of terrorism and the intifada, the keffiyeh, via Rachael Ray.” Later that day, nutcase conservative blogger Michelle Malkin chimed in, likening the scarf to a keffiyeh and calling it “jihadi chic.”

On May 24, Dunkin’ Donuts removed the ad from its Web site and others — and was promptly condemned by people who accused the company of caving in to conservative bullies.

Dunkin’ Donuts turned down a request to talk about the episode, but issued a statement. “In a recent online ad, Rachael Ray is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design,” it said. “It was selected by a stylist for the advertising shoot. Absolutely no symbolism was intended.”

Last night Michelle Malkin was the latest victim of a Bite & Run attack. While in FOX studios commenting on how Rachel Ray was probably the cause of 9-11 she was attacked by a horde of cats wearing black-and-white silk scarves and a few wearing tiaras. She is listed in stable condition at an undisclosed hospital. Unlike other Bite & Run attacks no jewelry was reported missing.

In another news, the headquaters of Dunkin' Donuts was the latest fatality of a Poop & Run attack. Hordes of dogs, cats and skunks all wearing black-and-white silk scarves ran through the entire building and out before authorities could catch them. The building is closed until further notice. Fumigation teams have been sent in.

Pooses for Peace Spokes-poose Zevo Calamari issued a statement early this morning. " Anyone who believes the likes of Miss Malkin deserves to be lied to. We are calling a boycott on Dunkin' Donuts as they caved in to the wishes of Neo-con terrorists. A round of Starbucks coffee for all!"
