A PARTY? AND I AM NOT INVITED? WELL *&%$^%&#^%(&!!!
Nicole, the birthday girl (on right) with best friend, Francesca
Well, the time has come (the walrus said, whoever he is) to celebrate papa’s daughter’s FIFTIETH anniversaire and THEY have left me yet again with my kitty whisperer, whom I ADORE, MAMA AND PAPA, but this time, they are not gone for long. Only long enough to celebrate on the 29th at Nicole’s HUGE party, to which she has invited all friends made along the way from several countries where she and her husband were living during the time Ciallo was attache’ from the Italian government. Complicated, no? But see, here’s the thing: Don has Italian ex. Ex had Italian and Australian mama and papa. Therefore, the children are American, Australian, Italian and probably some other things worked in there, as all of us have, so it’s quite a mix.
Party with cake and champagne! And no invitation to LOULOU! Actually, reaching fifty years really is a feat when you think about it. I don’t know of any kitty or doggy who has reached that age, ever, and certainly not like mama’s aunties in their eighties and one at 101!!! When they say anthros are living longer, they are not just a whistilin’ Dixie, whatever that is.
Maybe there will be some prezzies that my stepsister wants to get rid of and mama and papa will bring back the special gourmet kibble and choice white tuna in extra virgin olive oil that, no doubt, someone with class will give Nicole. But I’m not sure it will fit in their return luggage and pass you-know- who. Those customs people, not to mention those airline checkers, ALL love kibble and tuna, a fact not well known, so I’m sure it’ll disappear at the border. Oh, I forgot, the party’s outside of Roma.
Oh, well, hope the fete is a blast and since it’s on a place that used to be a farm, I’m sure there will be kitties everywhere FOR MAMA TO TAKE PICTURES OF AND DOGGIES, TOO!
I just wish for once she would not be such a shutterbug, whatever that is. With only around 15,000 of me, we’re sort of running short…
I could use some more portraits.
Actually, I could use LUNCH right now! No doubt my kitty whisperer is preparing the whole poached salmon that she forgot to put on the plate.
The party just won’t be any fun without you there, Loulou. 😉
You can bet your catnip it won’t. They needed my input, for sure.
We hope your Mama and Papa have a good time celebrating, but we can’t believe you were not invited. Mommy reviews all the books she reads on her blog, if you are looking for something to read while you wait for your people to return. Shame on them for leaving you behind.

You are so kind, but I have to admit to being fairly happy about STAYING PUT rather than in a box (er..sweet little traveling apartment) on a ship or in a car in unknown territory. But yes, they really should ASK first and let me turn them down, haha.
Well, Harrumph. Not invited, eh? And I’ll bet the FOOD is FABU!!!!!! Nicole, also looks fabulous – 50? Surely that’s a mistake and your mama meant to type 30, right? Well, the important thing is EVERYBODY’s having fun – and especially you with Kitty Whisperer Extraordinaire – so it’s a truly Happy Celebration for all. Mama, Papa et Moi are sending birthday greetings to Nicole and wishes for LOTS of happy times ahead.
Oh, I will pass all on to Nic and family and yes, they do keep me posted about the goings on but frankly, I’ve STOPPED birthday bashes, if only because I can’t handle nip the way I used to…mama says the same thing about whatever it is in those glasses that anthros sip. The drink, I mean, not the glasses. Got a little semantically confused there…it’s early.
Well, it won’t be a very good party without you there LouLou. 🙂
You are absolutely right, Ellen, and THEY haven’t realized that yet, but oh, they will!!!
A party and you’re not invited? But you’d be the life of the party! Oh, wait, that’s why you’re not invited. Happy birthday to your papa’s daughter. We hope a good time is had by all.
Thank you so much…I will tell Nic and let her know that she can one day expect a visit from ALL of you.
Whole poached salmon?! Oh, can I join you fur lunch?! Oh, never mind… Mom reminds me that I’m allergic to salmon. Darn ’em allergies! Say, my auntie turns 50 this year, too! If only us cats could have 50 lives instead of 9!
Oh, wouldn’t that be lov-e-ly!!! Fifty lives!
LouLou how dare they not invite you!!!!!! I think you should go to! The birthday girl is beautiful and I can’t believe she is going to be 50, she looks like she is in her early 30s!! Hoping everyone has a blast!! Happy Happy Birthday!!
I shall pass that on to Nicole. She really is young for 50 and will age slowly I am sure, while I keep getting greyer and greyer! Oy,,,
Oh LouLou – another chance for them to miss you and appreciate you even more ! Hope your kibble and tuna get safely though customs !
Oh, they will get through, you can count on that. Or else!
