Let's get this started off right...

Hello everyone!

Happy Caturday everyone!

Caturday "regular schedule": Caturday runs from sometime Thursday evening(for TotalFarkers), posts to Main at 8AM on Saturday morning, and runs until sometime very early on Tuesday morning. please do check it out on Sunday and Sunday night as well, as some of the best stuff, late answers to questions, and of course, some very good CAD^TM will show up later than the typical Saturday afternoon.

FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE BEEN LURKING AND NOT POSTING:
take the plunge! post some "blanks" of YOUR kitty and see how fun it is to see your kitty in lights and your family's kitty might get a fun or silly caption of his or her very own! a detailed "how to post pics on Caturday and on fark in general for dummies" page can be found here (new window). once you get the hang of it, posting pics is very easy, but it can seem daunting if you haven't ever done it before. take a look at that web page and hopefully it will make sense. there's even a bonus section that shows how easy it is to caption your own pics.

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A NEW KITTY THAT NEEDS A NAME:
introduce your new charge(s)! perhaps we can have a naming "contest". post a pic of your kitty and let everyone make suggestions. some of the ones Caturday comes up with are hilarious and often very appropriate. my guy, "LittleOne", recently got his new long name "Jester Lord Fluffy Bottom" (partly mine and partly another lovely farker's - take credit you-know-who!).

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A KITTY WHO IS UNDER THE WEATHER:
please post details and pose questions. Caturday is a wonderful place to get help as well as have fun. many of us, having had lots of kitties and having taking care of their lovely and many, many lives and, unfortunately, injuries and illnesses, have become "kitty health resources". post the issues and we'll all see if we can help, and for myself, please feel free to email me (my address can be found in "how to post pics on Caturday and on fark in general for dummies" (new window) and is "things.i.do.to.my.cats (at) gmail.com").

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE LOST A KITTY TO THE RAINBOW BRIDGE:
for those who have recently lost a kitty, please do let us know. please show us your pics, tell us the story. sharing helps. a wise person once said "a joy shared is twice a joy, a pain shared is half a pain". tell us of the lovely times of days past when kitty was around. tell us of your heartbreak at losing kitty. it's safe around here; no one will judge. most all of us have been there and will sympathize.

FOR THOSE WHO THE REST OF US DON'T KNOW WELL YET:
there is a fun map that was started by KimJ that shows where various of us Caturdayians are around the globe. to see it and hopefully contribute, go to KimJ's Caturday map (new window)

FOR THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE KEPT UP ON CATURDAY GOING'S ON:
if you would like to be kept up, just send your fark name and email address to CaturdayOnFark (at) googlegroups.com or go to http://groups.google.com/group/CaturdayOnFark and add your name to the infrequent email list. an email goes out once a week or so with the current Caturday thread and this or that other tidbit of info. please do be sure to include your fark handle.

That Mark Twain was a cat person is not surprising.

I'm related to Sam.

Looks like we might be seeing the start of a Caturday scandal!

Ok, that one got a snort out of me! Yay Kim! Yay Caturday!

Was away last weekend, and didn't finish reading the thread until Tuesday AM. I offer condolences for those who suffered losses, and healing energy for those with sick critters and/or peoples in their lives.

Better troublemaking through technology...
(That's *my* motto too)

Is this THE Caturday thread? I'm asking because it says it's going to the Main page at 10:48 tonite, as opposed to 8am Saturday morning,

Pineapples: Finally. I kid you not, I thought yesterday was Thursday and was up till midnight refreshing the links and wondering why I hadn't gotten QJ's email yet.

Someone must have given you the same medications they gave me yesterday.

Cute picture! I caught Abby doing that with a slice of ham several months ago. I was barely able to get it out of her grasp before she started to chow down. Motor skills are not what they should be when you are laughing hysterically.

I've always loved that pic, and have saved it for 2 or 3 years now.

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. Should we tell them, or wait and see if anyone else notices?

It must be; I don't see any other Caturday^tm greenlights. It must be an error on someone's part.

Oh, and a cat....
