Tomorrow is the big day! One year of The Cat Realm. We will celebrate our first blogoversary with a 'few' (33, hahahahahahaha) close friends who will actually teleport over in 'animal'. There will be entertainment and of course lots of food and drinks!!!! We are still busy getting ready!
Everybody is invited, please come over and bring your nomss friends and spread the word - it will be wild - it will be fabulous - it will be talked about in years to come, hahahahahahahahahahaha.
If you want to bring us gifts - please do so by helping Mom Laura!
Here is some of the food:
Upper left: Nip Salad with lizard croutons. Upper right: Raw Lizards.
Lower left: Shashlik of beef and lizard. Lower right: Bugs on a Bed of Nip.
Mrs. OZ made her famous Shrimp-Lizard Salad - she is sampling it here to see if it is good enough for the party! You can even see her tongue!
And here are some of the drinks:
Left: our house wine "Domaine Le Royaume De Chat" from 1996.
Right: Lizquila Cuervo Especial - a potent liquor made from lizards.
And here is the entertainment, and they will bring dancers too!!!
And of course nothing of this would happen if it wouldn't be for you, our fellow blogging friends.
All of you have made this past year exciting and wonderful. Your visits and comments and stories and pictures - there wouldn't be a 'Cat Realm' if not for you. As a token of our appreciation for your presence in our life we want to give everybody who comes and visits this award:
Please accept it with our most humble gratitude for your coming by here and taking an interest in our daily adventures.
We hope to see you ALL tomorrow at the party! It will start bright and early and go on ALL day long and way into the night, hahahahahahahahaha......
And there is still time to get your raffle ticket!!!
We also thought we will give you a short history of The Cat Realm:
April 15, 2007 our first post. We had no idea at this point about the gazillions of blogging cats out there! We also had no idea about how to manage pictures, so a while later we "stored" some that we needed for links here and haven't cleared that up yet.....
In May the first cat to visit us was Victor Tabbycat, and the second Dragonheart! And then we found the Cat Blogosphere through Aloysius and from almost none our comments went up to 18 immediately!
May 30 first Wordless Wednesday
June 4 first ManCat Monday
June 5 first time tagged
June 7 first Thursday Thirteen
June 8 first Fashion Friday
June 16 first annual lizard BBQ (the second will be this April 15, our first blogoversary!)
We had 36 'cyber' guests at last year's BBQ - this year we have 33 'actual' guests who teleported over and our goal is to have 100 'cyber' guests - that is a lot, isn't it? You think we can do it? That will be a LOT of return visits...... hahahahahahahahah
July 8 first IDYA - the pink wig challenge.
August 5 second IDYA - the nomss friend challenge.
Then came our darkest hour, we still cry when we think about it:
August 21 Anastasia did not come back out of the desert.
But during those sad and horrible days I also met the love of my life: my fiance Ruis.
October 2 Mrs. OZ arrived.
October 9 Emil arrived.
November 9 third IDYA - the dress up your staff challenge.
December 14 to 17 CCSI 2. Karl wrote the script and became part of Little Productions.
January 28, 2008 Karl proposed to Ruis and Ruis accepted!!!
And since then the overall traveling and partying with various friends has considerably picked up and kept us busy! If this trend keeps on like this we will have to hire additional staff soon, hahahahahahahaha!
Anyways - come back tomorrow to see what the party has to offer in food, drinks and entertainment!!!

O wow, just look at those plates of food! I may have to come later in the day, but I will *be there! :)
Has it really been a year??? Time's going faster & faster, like my mom says.
Well, I am on my way!!!!
*sniff*
*wail*
I snuck in and got one of those bugs on the catnip - and mom took it off me and carefully placed it outside!!
*sob*
It was MINE!
Your menu is absolutely priceless !! I am laughing so much that I spit out my coffee !! I have to show this to my friends (humans) because the Belgians are the same concerning food and the menu is something to be put on the menu card of the best restaurant in Brussels !! I have to send your link immediately to my friend she is french, married to a Belgian !

Love and purrs and snuggles from Marilyn!
Well, who could refuse such an invitation? Sure sounds like it's going to be loads of fun and food. But since you live in the SW, we thought your menu would be more along the lines of tacos, burritos and margaritas with fried ice cream.
Mmmmmm. We just made ourselves hungry. We'll have to go raid the fridge now. See you tomorrow.
Mikah says,
Thank you for taking the time to invite me and my 64 furry friends in the "creature lover" shelter.
The food looks delicious, a welcome change of menu.
I was so busy with your menus that I didn't see the award, lol ! Thank you very much !!! Big purr !
Okay! We'll be there.
Gretchen and Mike
I will definitely be at the party. Thank you so much for the award and for being so much fun (for the most part) for the last year. I still think of Anastasia when the sun is particularly bright.
Wow, you guys are party animals!
All of that food looks fabulous! We will definitely be teleporting over to the party. :)
I cannot wait for the big bash! Congratulations on your almost one year blogiversary. It looks like you have a fabulous lizard-y feast planned! Thanks so much for the award, too.
Oh WOW, this is gonna be a great part! We will be there!!!
Thank you for the award!!!
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BLOGOVERSARY!!!!
What a superb party menu! Mitzi could bring a few wigglies for you, or would they lower the tone a bit?
Thanks for the award.

We still remember the day that we found your blog. There was this photo of a good looking cat in a wig and cool sun glasses! We knew from that moment that you were one fun guy! It has been a pleasure getting to know you and your blog is one of our favorites!
Happy anniversary to you all! Thank you for the smiles and laughter that you bring into our lives!
Love,
Opus and Roscoe
ps. The problem with living in the future is that you are almost always the first to arrive at the party! Of course Momo kitty is living farther in future than we are and she almost always beats us! hehehhehee!
You have interesting colors on your lizards. I will have to sample them.
Wow it has really been a year? Our first bloggie anniversary is later this month. We will certainly be at the party! The food looks delicious and those drinks look very potent! It promises to be a wild one!
Oops we posted twice by accident, so that is our deleted post.
Can't wait to come to the party! We are one of your newer friends, so thank you humbly for the award! We think we'll leave the lizards to the kitties and bring a few carrots to share!
Happy Blogeversary! It was so great meeting and hanging out with you last week. I never thought I would be friends with kitties...I thought I only would chase them - hee hee hee! But you are the bestest! Thanks for the invite and the award! I can't wait to celebrate with you cats!!!!
Lots of Licks, ruby
Thanks for the invite, and the award. We love you guys, we think you are great. Is there going to have broccoli at the party

congratulations on the anniversary. looks like it's gonna be quite the bash.
Thanks for visiting my blog, and for the party invitation. The food looks especially delicious, especially the bug on the bed of catnip. Have you thought about starting a cat-ering business?
Your friend, Quasi
We are looking forward to your party tomorrow. ~Scylla, Charybdis & Socks
(blushing)
Oops. We are here a day early! Hehehehehe! How on earth did we do that? Okay, back to the past we go.... See you TOMORROW!
Love,
Opus and Roscoe
Gosh, has it been a year already? I think you'd better expect more than 33 friends...more like a few hundred!
This looks to be an all-out bash.
I must say, the bugs on a bed of 'nip looks especially enticing. Could you save a plate for the 4 of us to share? We'll be over ASAP.
George

I wasn't around when you first started blogging. It was very interesting to read the links you gave, to see how you started out and developed over time.
Thank you very much for the invitation and the award. Sunny and Ollie will be attending tomorrow (Ollie says she'll be there will bells on). Rascal hasn't went to any recent parties, well, because she's just a big bitch and totally not socialable :-p

Congratulations to you all on your first blogoversary! To think, we knew you before you became really famous! It's been quite a year for you- some great highs and a depressing low. Things are looking great for you now.
Sorry we never visit and comment any more. Our secretary always seems to be "busy" now. The nerve of her!
Love,
~J&B
Happy Anniversay and it looks like it is going to be a great party. Look at how may of my friends are already here!! Yippeee!! Pass me a niptini!
