A funky rhyme that can’t be beat.
Because today Pat and his cat
Are here to amuse at my mat!
Please welcome Pat Hatt of It’s Rhyme Time, who will show you a proper rhyme.
Festival Time In Rhyme!
So since the cat is all done the A to Z he figured he'd fill some time with a guest post for the ninja wannabe. But what could he do? Why give festivals to visit for all of you.
Frozen Dead Guy Days.
Catch some sunny rays,
In dead guy land.
Wouldn't that be grand?
Tomato Fight Festival should be on your list.
Then just make sure you are good and pissed.
Take a tomato and whack one in the head.
They could join the above if they turn out good and dead.
Monkey Buffet Festival sounds yummy.
Don't you want monkeys in your tummy?
Could get a neat disease,
Or maybe just fleas.
This one I'd avoid,
Of them the cat is paranoid.
Although Crying Baby Festival may be for you,
Especially if you have one or two.
And if that isn't your cup of tea,
You can grab your baby and flee.
Going to the Baby Jumping Festival around the corner.
Just don't step on little Jack Horner.
I bet some could pass this test.
They have such zest.
They would prove they are the best,
By winning the National Hollerin Contest.
Don't come near my OCD, bud.
I do not want any mud.
But Boryeong Mud Festival could be fun,
If you like that type of thing under your sun.
This one will be all the craze.
You will get there and gaze,
Maybe even graze.
Soaking up Mike The Headless Chicken Days.
I'll skip the Festival of Near Death Experiences this year.
Although I have been there I fear,
The dress code is rather strict.
Bring your own coffin the rules depict.
Ewww ewww ewww.
But that is all the more for you,
As you go to the Testicle Festival event,
Joining 10,000 people eating 4,000 pounds of bull testicles under a tent.
See, there are lots of other fun things to do, and surprisingly, none of these were made up at my zoo. So if you ever need a good festival at your sea, you can now find one thanks to me. On most though I would pass, especially the last one, as it scares my little rhyming ass.
Enjoy your winter, smash a printer.
Pat is the author of over twenty books and his latest is Fight for the Light, available on Amazon.

Wormfest!
That’s right, it’s back – National Wormhole Week, March 10-16!
Hosted by Stephen Tremp, L. Diane Wolfe, and Alex J. Cavanaugh.
2014 National Wormhole Week: Name one thing where science advances mankind, and one where technology will go too far and set us back. They can be the same thing or different.
Example:
De-extinction or bringing back extinction species through backbreeding, genetic engineering, and cloning.
With all the breakthrough discoveries mankind is on the cusp of, are we playing God?
Where do you see science moving us forward and where do you see it moving us back? Feel free to quote a movie. (Jurassic Park is a great example.)
Join us below for Wormfest!
Follower of Pat and his rhyming cat? Know any of the cat trivia? Excited about the new releases? And who’s up for Wormfest?
to be or not to be...
ReplyDeleteWormfest looks awesome! I'm in!
ReplyDeleteGreat post Alex especially Pat's rhyme.
ReplyDeleteHave a good day.
Yvonne.
sorry it's been awhile, i played in the first chair. a cat is where it is at, thank you Pat. great releases, covers and wormhole fest.
ReplyDeleteit's going to be a interesting one for sure, now i must think of something.
had free hbo this weekend, found myself enjoying "games of throne" well i did.
on to a better week and a extra shout out to my friend who needs it this week, she needs it!!
jeremy
I love the poem and almost went to two of the festivals - tomatoes (we were nearby) and the monkey buffet (we didn't want to get the highly recommended rabies vaccine). As for the triva
ReplyDelete1. faster than me
2. true
3. hairball
4. 11
5. cat
(all guesses)
I don't know where Pat Hatt gets his energy and wacky creative braincells, but I'd gladly take a droplet of it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, Alex.
xoRobyn
A house cat can run at speeds up to 40mph.
ReplyDeleteCats will often drink seawater as the salt goes well with Tequila, the preferred drink of the most discerning felines.
The technical term for a hairball is Paticus Pukitis.
It is a well known fact that cats can make five million, five hundred thousand and five sounds. Most of these are in the supersonic range and can only be heard by Pat Hatt.
Cats are most definitely the preferred pet in North America and in fact the entire Continent of the Americas. Americans like them because they are individuals. Canadians like them because when skinned, they make a lovely pair of gloves. And in Mexico people like them because taste good on a taco. The are much loved in Argentina as they are good mousers.
I made some typos there Alex, sorry about that. Tell that stinking feline I'll swing by his place after I wake up later today :)
ReplyDeleteWow, Angela Orlowski-Peart's cover looks intriguing!
ReplyDelete1. depends on what is chasing it.
ReplyDelete2. they can drink anything. Whether it agrees with them is another thing.
3. yergch!
4. the purr, the meow, the where-is-my-food roar, the youch-you stepped-on-my-tail-again, the I-don't-like-boxes-or-vets howl.
5. the cat. Of course. They do rule the world, after all.
Love the poem! And CassaThunder...looks like it could be a cool book. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't know any cat trivia...although I should. I would be interested to see if they could drink seawater...
Ha! Well, I'm going to avoid the Testical Festival but I might have a free ticket in my purse to the Crying Baby one:)
ReplyDeleteGreat Poem! My guess at the last question is that dogs are more popular.
ReplyDeleteLove the Wormhole bloghop idea. I just signed up!
ReplyDeletePat has mad rhyming skilz.
ReplyDeleteLove the Cassa Thunder cover. ;)
Congrats to everyone on their covers!
ReplyDeleteBeing able to write rhyme is such a talent. Wish I had it.
Alex you know you've made id when you've been parodied :) that's what I thought about last week when I saw Pat's post.
ReplyDeleteVery funny poem, but I agree on the last part, no Fear Factor for me! I'm not real sure the answers on the cat trivia but the last question asks which is more popular, cat or dog? I am assuming cats. I just read something that said that the most successful blogs in 2013 were those filled with cat pictures.
ReplyDeleteI signed up for Wormfest--I just hope I remember it in March!
ReplyDeleteLove Pat's poem!
ReplyDeleteExcited for Stephen's 3rd book! :)
I'm tempted for the wormfest, that sounds hilarious. I think that proves that there are official weeks for just about everything now.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't know Pat, the rhymes are hilarious.
That Pat cracks me up. He's a nonstop rhyme.
ReplyDeleteYes, technology can be scary, but there's so much that looks exciting, like that heart that they can see with a person's own stem cells and grow a replacement heart that the host body won't reject.
dude,
ReplyDeletewormhole week...awesome...hahaha on the cat, cant believe he's go festivaling like this with the OCD at his mat...testicle festival....oh my.....
Jeremy, do you sleep? Glad you got to enjoy some free HBO.
ReplyDeleteLG, glad you are with us!
Rhonda, I'll give you two and a half right on the trivia.
Anne, that was hilarious! Didn't know cats were into Tequila.
Lynda, if it doesn't agree with them, that's when we get the hairballs.
Sean, glad you're on board!
Keith, I guess I've made it then.
Gossip Girl, I read that as well about cat pictures.
Sandra, we won't let you forget.
Had to come over and take a look
ReplyDeleteat the ninja wannabe's nook
I think Pat had a rhyming fest
and that cat is full of zest
Nice to see his book on display
as the captain sails the bay
perhaps you need a music fest
playing guitar on your quest
I had a cat growing up whose back legs grew but his front legs didn't so he ran like a rabbit. Needless to say, he was an inside cat. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to those cat trivia answers….
Great Post (like R) to Alex and Pat
ReplyDeleteToday rhyming festivals at your mat
Rocky Mountain festivals I've been many times
You can go and eat testicles no need for rhymes
For kicks I might try the fun monkey buffet
Get wild, dance flamenco and shout my ole
The tomato fight festival I never miss
You pelt with tomatoes it's purely Heinz bliss
Thank you host Ninja and rhymes from the cat
A home run by stars as you come up to bat
Pat could play Oingo Boingo's Dead Man's Party as a theme song.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to 2014 Wormfest!
Maybe you could do a cover art for Sharnado vs. Sharktopus.
I love reading Cat and Pat's comments on other blogs, but I always keep forgetting to follow him. Now I have to fix that before I forget again.
ReplyDeleteThat cover and title is so cool, even if it isn't real. You should do a CassaThunder just to use the title.
I'm thinking monkeys in my tummy does not sound all that yummy! lol
ReplyDeleteLoved it, Pat!
Pat's rhyme was so full of "fun things to do". It not only made me laugh, it reminded me of the time I had a really weird neighbour who bought his coffin and kept it by his front window for all to see as they passed by! Not many people visited the street!
ReplyDeleteWormfest also sounds like fun.
Testicle Event and Wormhole Fest in the same post? ;-) Only here. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI participated in the Wormfest last year and really loved the concept. Will be participating again. Have a lovely Monday.
ReplyDeleteI'm horrible at rhyming, or maybe it's my timing! Okay, that was bad.
ReplyDeleteThat CassaThunder cover is pretty cool, though.
Wormfest sounds like fun!
I bet the Headless Chicken Days are messy.
ReplyDeleteI don't know the technical term for a hairball, but we clean those up on a regular basis around here.
Thanks for the round-up, Alex. A monkey buffet? Hmmm... Congrats to everybody with new releases and thanks a mil for posting my cover.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to say that I do not know much about cats, even though I had one once upon a time. Thanks for keeping us up to date on all the happenings and releases!
ReplyDeleteI think I might do well in the National Hollerin' Contest. My mother didn't call me one of God's screatures for nothing. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alex, for giving Anansi a shout out! So excited.
I love the Wormfest picture! Looks fascinating.
ReplyDeleteAlex and the cat at the same mat, how about that! I can't answer any of those cat questions, but the last one better be cat :) And the wormhole-fest was fun last year, so I might do it again. Some really cool new releases, too.
ReplyDeleteA tomato war. An interesting kind of food fight.
ReplyDeleteWormhole week sounds really cool, but is going to take some thinking. I think I'm up for it!
ReplyDeleteTruedessa, I do need to post some music some day.
ReplyDeleteMadeline, that's funny!
Manzanita, you stole R's line!
Stephen, I'm sure that will be a SyFy movie soon...
Jack, CassaNova has also been suggested...
Fanny, that is just odd.
Liz, I try to be original.
Jay, better at it than I am.
Joy, you're welcome!
Bish, sorry I forgot last week.
Shell, it is indeed the cat.
Funky rhyme for sure.
ReplyDeleteCassa Thunder isn't real? Say it isn't so. That was awesome! :)
Nope not for a few weeks... and then throw in free movie channels. I am the night owl and my eyes are so puffy... bring on the coffee!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Pat, don't see you roaming too far from your zoo, so this is a special treat!
ReplyDeleteAll wonderful news for so many talented folk, and Cassa Thunder? Why not!?
Good to see Pat over here! I laughed out loud at the mention of Frozen Dead Guy Days, because I know that all too well. That's about 30 minutes north of here, and every year, people go up there to party with a frozen dead guy. It raises money to keep him frozen for another year. What's not to love?
ReplyDeleteAnswers from me at your sea:
ReplyDeleteAround 30, but my guy 40-50, thanks to his wild breed
Yep
trichobezor(spelling)
Over 100 easy
Cats
Look at you rhyming too haha was fun to do indeed, and see, now thanks to the fake cover book #4 is a go lol
Wormfest sounds like part of the cat trivia! Sorry, had to do it.
ReplyDeleteHoly rhymes, Ninja! Sounds pretty good.
Trivia
1. Housecats can run very fast if they want to. Especially in the middle of the night all over the bed.
2. False.
3. *hhhuuutttt*
4. 15
5. Cat
I'm trying to use my many years of vast knowledge of being owned by cats to answer these. :)
Great job on the new titles!
Heather
National Hollerin Day? How could I miss that. And I admit to have attended a Moonpie Festival…
ReplyDeleteI meant the National Hollerin Contest with that last comment...
ReplyDeleteNice rhyme Pat, but I don't think I'll join you and your crazy cat. Those festivals sound rather whack. Not to mention, my cat is lazier than a potato sack.
ReplyDeleteHa! Now you know why I didn't pursue a career in poetry or Rapping.
Pat and his cat rock. The only trivia question I think I know is #5 - cats are more popular.
ReplyDeleteI have to go check out Michael's hop, I totally forgot that was coming up!
Mina, sorry!
ReplyDeleteYolanda, better than CassaNova!
Brandon and Bryan, depending on who he is, that could be a good thing he's frozen.
Pat, you do know your cats! And that was the best rhyme I could create.
Heather, your answer to number three is hilarious!
Christine, you did better than I.
Hehe, Wormfest! I just may have to join in for the simple fact you have Einstein on a snowboard.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all the new books out there! And Pat, thanks for that ;) Fun rhymes for such...interesting festivals. I think I'll keep clear of them all...especially Mike the Headless Chicken days. That's just wrong!
Cheers!
I like cats, hubby doesn't although they like him.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to Escalation but don't think I will join the fest.
CAT FACTS!
ReplyDelete#1 Ninja speed
#2 They can drink it, heck I can drink it
#3 Vomitus Hairyous
#4 According to Garfield not enough
#5 Cats!
Not a cat person, don't know any of those answers. We're dog people here at The Manor. Hope you had a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteVery funny Pat Hatt and his wonderful blog!
ReplyDeleteWormfest! Too fun to pass up!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy cat's a torty and they are well-known for their capacity to mimic. She makes a lot of interesting sounds!
ReplyDeleteChecking out Micheal's hop and this was a fun rhyming post. :)
ReplyDelete~Decadent
Love the rhyme.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm curious what the answers to the trivia questions are...I can think of sarcastic answers, but I'm guessing those aren't correct.
Dude! That cover got me all excited! I'm so into this blogfest. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed by all the rhyming. What a lot of work that must be. And CassaThunder looks badass. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe one festival you will never see me at is the "Testicle Festival." LOL I'd sign up for the blogfest, but I dropped the ball on the last one. I'll look into signing up when we get closer Alex.
ReplyDeleteLike Mina, I really liked the fake cover -- you should find a way to do it!
ReplyDeleteWormfest sounds interesting. Count me in! :-)
Thanks for inviting the cat whose rhyme I always enjoy/He is very clever and always brings me joy.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
Julie, you are correct!
ReplyDeleteJen, the badge was all Stephen's idea.
David, I like your answers! Bonus points for saying Ninja speed.
MJ, no, but they are funny!
Maurice, hope you can join us.
Roland, I'll get right on that...
Cuban, thanks for visiting!
I don't know whether cats or dogs are a more popular pet, but dogs should be. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat last verse almost made me lose it and run away! LOL!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot; whoever knew
ReplyDeleteSo many crazy events outside my zoo?
Two featured here are in my backyard
And that's why I'm keeping guard!
What an awesome poem! That was fantastic :) As far as the trivia goes... I guess I don't much about cats :D
ReplyDeleteCassaTHunder! LOLOL! I love it! :) Pat is so cool.
ReplyDeleteCassaThunder looks totally real. Maybe one day it will be...

Cat trivia now I share my home with a feline so will give it a go.
ReplyDelete* My cat can run VERY fast especially when being chased by the black and white cat who lives down the road.
* She prefers to drink out of puddles.
* She makes a particular noise when we open the door to let her in - amazingly it sounds like "thank you."
Lots of lovely new books out there, congrats to everyone!
Pat is a rhyming genius.
ReplyDeleteLots of great news and cover reveals out there. :)
How fun to visit your blog, Alex. Of course rhyming Pat sent me your way! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteNo monkeys or fleas for me thanks ;)
ReplyDeleteAwesome rhyme per usual, Pat.
And I'm very curious about the cat trivia. How have these questions never occurred to me before? lol
Dog has to be more popular. I mean, it's the American Pet! But for some reason I think I'm wrong...*off to Google*
ReplyDeleteThe festival poem is so much fun. I think that Frozen Dead Guy thing happens here in Colorado.
ReplyDeleteWormfest sounds interesting. CONGRATS to everyone with book releases and cover reveals!
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you for the morning giggle. I probably shouldn't have read the poem out loud though with my 6 year old in hearing distance. He keeps saying testicles now, lol
ReplyDeleteLoved all of Pat Hatt's festivals! His IWSG post was also classic! Congrats to Bish, and all the authors!
ReplyDeleteJulie
Crying baby fest...I'm pretty sure that's one I'd skip. :)
ReplyDeletePatt and his rhymes are as reliable and delightful as Gary's puns.
ReplyDeleteLove them.
Hair-balls - 'clean-up required on Aisle Three. And Four.'
They say dogs rule
ReplyDeleteBut the cat's no fool
And let's a dog run
While cat's curled away from the sun
Into a worm hole the dog will fall
Making cat ruler of all.
The CassaThunder was very clever. I do follow Pat and he makes me laugh every day.
ReplyDeleteI'm in for Wormfest.
That is a lot of rhyme. I admire it, even I can't do it.
ReplyDeleteI don't know on the Cat Questions. I'm a dog person.
I should know all the cat trivia but I'm ashamed to say I don't - despite working at an animal clinic for 15 years!
ReplyDelete1. considering a cheetah can run up to what, 85mph for short distances? I'm going to guess 20mph or thereabouts.
2. cat's cannot drink seawater.
3. See, I should know this but even the veterinarians call them hairballs!
4. purr, meow, growl, hiss plus the purrmeow and the odd sound they make when watching birds from the window so...6!
5. I know it used to be the cat but I don't know if it still is.
Moody, we'll see...
ReplyDeleteSuzanne, you should record her saying that.
Fundy, thanks for stopping by!
Emilyann, until I Googled 'cat facts,' they'd never occurred to me!
SC, unfortunately you are wrong about that.
Cassie, that's hilarious!
Elephant's Child, big cleanup!
Susan, thanks for joining us!
From experience, the house cat cannot run fast enough.
ReplyDeleteSO many exciting and strangely weird things going on! Love it!
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks for the shoutout, Alex!
ReplyDeleteAnother cat trivia question - how many times in one day can your cat try to trip you? ;)
Pat, I loved your poem!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all with new books!
And last but not least - Hi, Alex!
Well, I'm stumped on the cat trivia so I guess I will have to wait till Wednesday to find out the answers. See you then!
ReplyDelete'Or maybe just fleas.' hahaha
ReplyDelete1 – How fast can a housecat run?
Faster than its owner.
2 – True or false – cats can drink seawater.
Yes, but they won't.
3 – What’s the technical term for a hairball?
Gack!-O-M-G-I'm-gonna-kill-that-cat
aka No!-Don't-eat-that! (yelled in parental horror at the baby)
4 – How many different sounds do cats make?
Who can stand to listen long enough to count?
5 – Which pet is more popular in North America – the dog or the cat?
Depends on who you ask... the dog or the cat. :P
Congrats to all with news and new releases! :)
I can only bow down to Pat's prose... I don't know how he does it, but God bless 'm :)
ReplyDeleteOh, that Pat Hatt! Clever clever boy/man/cat.
ReplyDeletePat loves his cat
ReplyDeleteAnd that is that
The guy sure can rhyme
He does it all of the time.
OK that was pretty bad.
Some great books and covers there and also a few great blogfests.
Marcy, good guesses though!
ReplyDeleteCate, you're welcome! And I bet that's a really high number.
Melissa - hilarious answers!!!
I so don't want to know about the Testicle Festival.
ReplyDeleteI have a cat yet all I could answer was that dogs are more popular than cats, but even then I wouldn't swear to it.
I'm a terrible cat owner. I can't answer a single one of those questions.
ReplyDeleteThat was one heckuva hilarious rhyme lol!
ReplyDeleteBeen seeing Joy around the blogosphere sharing about Anya and that very nice cover. YAY Joy!!
And I think Bish's cover is just too cute. YAY Bish!
Wow, now that's some rhyming.
ReplyDeleteToo bad Cassa Thunder isn't real.
Not much of a cat person- allergies ya know.
Wormfest sounds interesting; I'm in.
Pat in the Hatt
ReplyDeleteHis rhyming cat
Talks about this
Talks about that
Give Pat a pat
How about that
Dr. Seuss
Meets Mother Goose
I follow Pat
Just like a rat
Although I'm a dog
Who leaves you agog.
Thanks for the other links
Methinks
Well done ninja dude
This be a funny mood.
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar!
Cant' wait to read the answers to those trivia questions. Funny rhymes!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, what are those answers?! And I like to think of myself as a cat lover...tsk tsk. That poem is incredible, Alex!! You're talented in so many ways!
ReplyDeletePat and his cat are hilarious! What a fun way to start the week. Congrats to everyone releasing a book too. So many good ones!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all the new and featured authors!!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, what a poem - so clever in it's entirety.
ReplyDeleteLots of great books and covers!
Loved the Wormhold Blog Fest last year, so I'm in again! Might have to check out that coffee hop, too! Loved the rhyme and all the book covers :-)
ReplyDeleteThe poem was a fun ride. Congrats to all the featured authors.
ReplyDeleteToi, sorry it's not real.
ReplyDeletePenny, you rhyme better than I!
Saumya, can't take credit - that was Pat's poem.
Jamie, glad you are on board!
I love rhymes, so this post was tons of fun for me! Nice job, Pat!
ReplyDeleteLove to see the new books that have been released. I have been so excited for Cate and Bish, as I have been following their blogs for years and think they are both excellent writers and people. :) I will have to check out the other new releases! Best of luck to all the authors.
Do cats make 100 sounds?
Thanks for sharing!
~Jess
So bowing down to Pat right now! Rhyming an entire blog post is pretty impressive. And I don't think there's anyone who wants to attend that last festival. =)
ReplyDeleteSo many things going on. Whew! Guess I'm getting back into the blogosphere by jumping into the deep end. ;)
ReplyDeleteLol. I should be heading out to a carnival soon. It sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteLol. I should be heading out to a carnival soon. It sounds like fun.

ReplyDeleteLol. I should be heading out to a carnival soon. It sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteHey, Alex,
ReplyDeleteGreat poem, Patt.... FUN Rhyme about a cat, it lurks, it pounces, and many eat too much and get fat!
Congrats to Bish, Cate, Angela, and J.L.!!!
And thanks for the shout out, Alex!!!
Ha! That is not what I expected to read at the top of your post today.
ReplyDeletewell, patt...bull testicle eating. hmmm...I think I just lost my appetite. even though he is the KING of poems!
ReplyDeleteCool rhyme and I look forward to the answers since I'm a cat person.
ReplyDeleteOooh, so many bloggers books.
Jess, very good - yes, one hundred sounds.
ReplyDeleteMichael, you're welcome!
John, I am full of surprises.
I've had my first cat for 19 years and know little about them.Except I love her. I did learn a few things just now, that cats make dozens of sounds and can run up to 30 mph(which surprised me)Their tails go straight up in the air if they like you which explains a lot to me. Hairballs are gross, technically termed trichobezoar. Hah, bezoar reminds me of Harry Potter. Congrats to Mike and everyone else with their books. I'll have to check out Worm Fest.
ReplyDeleteThose are some awesome rhymes and congratulations to all on the new releases!
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother used to read me Anansi when I was a kid
ReplyDeleteCassaThunder. What a tease! I'm in for National Wormhole Week.
ReplyDeleteHow it would be to bring back to life a great sages like Leonardo da Vinci?
ReplyDeleteI will have to think on the worm hole thing and get back with you. Don't want to show my ignorance in the science department...could call on the genius boy crew I live with for answers...thinking out loud...can you tell?
ReplyDeleteNot sure if the trivia is fur real or not. Though, I am going with no to salt water.
I've missed my favorite Ninja! Just dropping in to say hi. :)
ReplyDelete1. Since I had one who seemed to be training for the fricking Olympics, I'm going to say 35mph.
ReplyDelete2. I'm going to say yes...I don't know why.
3. Hairybilis Ballibilis...
4. I want to say at least 9: 1) the casual "Hey, pay attention to me Meow," 2) the "Nooo, I don't want to go in the carrier!!!" meow, 3) the "OMG, why are you bathing me?" meow, 4) the "I hate this other cat so much," meow, 5) the occasional bark, 6) the "yes, keep rubbing me, mmmm," purr, 7) the "I'm sleep, though," purr, 8) the I'm allergic to myself sneeze, and 9) the hacking of the Hairybilis Ballibilis.
5. I'm guessing cats. lol
Funny:) Hey, why isn't CassaThunder real yet? ;)
ReplyDeleteWell looked there, the comment box is actually letting me comment now! Whew! Great post! Wait, that's R's line…ah well, it fits for this write up :)
ReplyDeleteCathrina, you do know cats!
ReplyDeleteNigel, that is really cool.
Elizabeth, don't worry - I still have no idea what I am posting!
Debra, you got a couple of those right.
Mark, because I'd have to plan it!
MJ, yes, that is R's line...
Looking forward to answers to the cat questions.
ReplyDeleteNice book covers.
Mary Montague Sikes
I love well written rhymes! But I am going to skip those fests mentioned! :)
ReplyDelete5. I am hoping there are more dogs than cats, but I think the answer is cats. (both are cute, but I'm very much a dog person...)
Some great new books to check out, along with blog hops... love your new mock cover..hehe
ReplyDeleteLMAO Pat is always so hilarious. Those festivals.. there sure are a lot of strange ones out there.
ReplyDeleteLots of great books to read and I have a coupe of great bloghops I see.
I saw CassaThunder over at Pat's blog... I don't know how he comes up with a non-stop flow of rhyming wackiness....?
ReplyDeleteI'm really trying to think of something for the Wormfest but coming up blank at the moment...
Does the Wormfest linky code not show up until a post is actually published?
ReplyDeleteI am sitting here with a very large cat on my lap right now! Thanks for the heads-up about the underlining. Fixed it!
ReplyDelete
