Nomss Friend Stuff and 5 things meme
Skeezix nailed it and won the nomss friend T-shirt.
There were 13 species involved in the Dare:
cats - dogs - humans - lizards - bunnies - rats - hamsters - goats - turtles - otters - guinea pigs - birds - and a watgog.
Ariel tagged us a while ago for the "5 things that changed my life" meme. Here it goes:
Anastasia
1 - Walking into the little box.
2 - Meeting the butler that night. And Karl. And the maid.
3 - My cut-remove-stitch ritual.
4 - Discovering that humans can easily be manipulated!
5 - Meeting Monte.
Karl
1 - I don't talk about the first one. Ever.
2 - Meeting the butler and finding my forever home with him and the maid.
3 - Having Anastasia join us.
4 - Finding the Cat Blogosphere and all you wonderful friends!
5 - This is one I am hoping WILL happen eventually: to find other gay cat bloggers and maybe a boyfriend....

Fashion Friday
Thank you everybody who participated in the nomss (Not Of My Species Special) friend Dare!I am overwhelmed by your wonderful efforts to make this community even better and bigger. I think we set a great example for all those humans out there of how important and rewarding it is to go outside your race, culture and social circles to make new friends and learn from them!
Ariel was actually the first cat to accept the Dare - the only reason her name is not on top of the links list anymore is that I, Karl, messed that up...
I will give you the Dare Statistics later - today I will give the first commentator who states the right number of total species involved in this Dare so far a nomss friend T-shirt!
Thank you again and keep on making those friends!

Catching up...
You guys did it:
We will be able to see Anastasia in Groucho Marx glasses and party hat Friday!
Sorry we haven't visited a lot lately and won't for the next two days either - we have a lot of catching up to do.
The maid and Dicky Duck just got back from New York, they'll be busy putting up pictures at Dicky's blog and I am busy in "summarizing" the nomss friend Dare!
What a success it was. The button in the sidebar will stay, so anyone who hasn't yet taken the Dare can do so at any time!
Thank you everybody - it is making me very happy to see all these wonderful friendships blossom!

I Dare You All...
…to make a not-of-my-species-special-friend (nomss friend).
Go out, find someone who is not of your own species and make friends.
Introduce yourself and tell them why you chose them (color of their fur, feathers, scales, skin, layout and/or content of their Blog, their name, whatever it was that grabbed your attention).
Ask if they want to be your nomss friend and post about them on your Blog. Beans can of course play too!
Put the link to that post in the Mr. Linky Box at the end.
We will keep this post up for several days because I realize that this is a somewhat different challenge! It requires real effort. And time. And courage to go and talk to strangers and ask them to be friends. But I think that this is something we all need to do more these days!
You can pick up your IDYA buttons here, they are designed so that you can put your new friend’s picture in it and is meant to be put in your sidebar with a permanent link to their blog.
We promised: no photoshop! So whoever does not have the software or skills to put their friend’s picture in the button – email us and we do it for you!
I do hope that each and every one of you accepts this challenge so we can make the blogosphere an even better and bigger community and show everybody how we cross borders and have no patience for prejudices, racism and intolerance towards others!
If you don’t know where to start looking: there are a number of links to other animal and human Bloggers at the bottom of our sidebar. There is also the animal internet. Good luck!
And remember: don’t just put your nomss friend’s picture on your Blog but treat them as true friends. Visit often, respect and support them, help them when they need it and most important: learn from how they are different from you and find your common features!
Karl - And we did accept our own challenge - SCROLL DOWN to see our post about it! And please go and say hello to our new friend Lucas.
I will leave this Dare up for at least a week - so you all have plenty of time!

Our nomss friend Lucas
We chose Lucas because we like his fur, we like his looks, we like his name, we like his Blog, but most important: we like his attitude and personality!
He is goofy, he is funny, he was the first dog who accepted the pink wig dare and he acknowledges some of the fantastic skills of cats on his Blog.
We are very lucky that he agreed to be our nomss friend!
Give him a high five and go say hello to our nomss friend Lucas!

Are You Ready...?
He is getting out of hand. The only thing I hear all day long is: will they like my Dare? Will they participate? Maybe this Dare is too far off. What if they DON'T like it? Can it even work? Should I re-write it? When is it finally Sunday? Could I maybe post it early. And on and on and on...Oh Karl, get a life!
I will sure be glad when this is over! Especially because I can pretty much take the week off! No blogging for a week or so - because he will leave his Dare post up for that long!
I tell you, I should have NEVER allowed him to take over!
MY next dare will be basic back to normal again, I promise. No fuzzing around, just dare you all, get it over with, move on. That's how you do these things, Karl!
Anyways, have a good weekend. If you can - with this "Dare" looming over all of us...
Anastasia
Fashion Friday
P.S. There is another fabulous blog with a cat with glasses - and other cool things, make sure to check out Maggy and Zoey!

Thursday Thirteen
Anastasia allowed me to do the next I Dare You All… because she was very intrigued by my proposal! And I am extremely excited!
Here are 13 reasons why you should accept the IDYA #2 challenge which will be posted this coming Sunday morning, August 5 at 9:30 EST:
1 - you do not have to wear a pink wig.
2 - you do do not have to wear ANYTHING if you don’t want to…
3 - it will still be fun.
4 - you do not need photoshop!
5 - you probably feel really good afterwards.
6 - you will receive another fabulous button to put on your blog.
7 - it might make the net a better place.
8 - it could be a lasting experience.
9 - I really poured my heart in it and would be crushed if not many participate…
10 - you might learn something.
11 - it is 1 great challenge, coming up in 3 days: 1 and 3 = 13!
12 - you can wear a pink wig while doing it…
13 - Anastasia made a bet that if I get more participants than she did for the pink wig dare she will post a picture of herself in Groucho Marx glasses and a party hat!
And that last point alone should be reason enough for everybody to attend!!!!

Proverb Meme
Our friend Ariel tagged us for this interesting meme.
A proverb is a simple and concrete saying popularly known and repeated, which expresses a truth, based on common sense or the practical experience of catkind. They are often metaphorical.
Here is ours:
A lizard a day keeps the vet away.
We tag:
Monte
Yao-Lin
