Vengeful Kitty Sneeks into White House Dinner

AP: A photo leaked recently from a recent State Dinner shows how a cat may have gotten past White House security. While inside the cat reportedly used several priceless 18th Century French chairs as scratching posts before peeing in the Lincoln Bedroom. 

Although details are still fuzzy, it is believed that this "attack" was not political in nature, but payback for an errant snowball throw by Obama last February. (see below)

In an attempt to stem any potential fallout from cat-owning voters, Obama quickly held a press conference assuring the public that he still obeys the kitty...

Chairman Meow Considers Anti-Capitalism T-Shirt

After leaving civilization for several hours on a catnip-induced vision quest, Chairman Meow is considering denouncing capitalism with a profitable new t-shirt design.

The t-shirt design would say something to the effect of, Down with Capitalism™ (in gold sequins) and would be available for only $19.99 + shipping. The t-shirts would be made in China, and sold exclusively at WalMart.com. (and possibly on QVC) 

Each t-shirt sold would also come with coupon for free McRib sandwich, and with each t-shirt purchased,  customers would have a chance to win a new Apple iPad.

The proceeds of the anti-capitalism t-shirt will fund Chairman Meow's plan to build a spacious new addition to his fur-lined Cat Cave.

*Sources claim that the sight of a limo-driven Carlos Santana wearing an expensive & stylish Che Guevara t-shirt on the red carpet of the Academy Awards in L.A. may have inspired Chairman Meow's idea for the hypocritical profitable anti-capitalism t-shirt.

Chairman Meow in Chinatown

Chairman Meow in China Town - A supporter of Chairman Meow recently placed a propaganda sticker prominently on this phone booth in China Town, San Francisco. This strategic positioning of propaganda specifically targets all 7 Chinese people between the ages of 18 and 50 in San Francisco who do not yet have a cell phone, and still rely on frequent visits to the phone booth to make calls. 

Chairman Meow wishes to personally thank Steve for his feline patriotism, and wishes to remind others that they may get similar Chairman Meow stickers at little or no cost.

Hot Dogs and Militant Cats

Grilla Ray's Hotdog Oasis - To honor Chairman Meow and the Kitty Revolution, Grilla Ray's in Tulsa Oklahoma is offering a free bag of chips when you say "Obey the Kitty!" 

This generous offer will surely win over the hearts and minds of the people of this strategically important city that was referred to as "The Oil Capital of the World" for much of the 20th century.  Eventual control of the Tulsa oil reserves will fuel the feline war machine, and pave the way for kitty world domination.

The large scale kitty-propaganda campaign in Tulsa will also include subliminal messages of support for Chairman Meow, hidden in the city's popular Western Swing music.

Chairman Meow in Argentina

Chairman Meow observes a glacier in Patagonia (the Southern tip of Argentina),  noting that it's progress is slower than American Healthcare reform. Unfortunately, in a relative way these glaciers are moving quickly; having retreated over 1 km since the early 1990s, making them among the fastest retreating glaciers in the world.

Benevolent Leader Meow notes, however, that Global Warming / Climate change is expected to greatly increase the world's feline population. Not only does warmer weather make outdoor living more suitable to cats, but the warmer weather sends female cats into heat earlier and more often. "The brain receives instructions to produce a hormone that basically initiates the heat cycle in a cat," said Ms Peterson, "and those instructions are affected by the length of day and usually the rising temperatures of spring." (source: global warming could lead to more kittens: christian science monitor)

If you still don't believe in climate change, at least consider the concept the next time you see a swarm of feral cats being blown through the air by a late-season super hurricane.

Fat Cat Closes Checkpoint at Newark Airport

Fat Cat Causes Drama at Newark Airport
NEWARK, NJ - "Too Big to Fail" - A 25 pound cat reportedly freaked out while going through airport security during rush hour on Tuesday, jumping from it's carrier, and then squeezing under a large bomb detection machine where it became lodged in the 4 inch tall space.

The checkpoint soon was closed down, causing havoc at the airport, where people had to be diverted to other checkpoints. The cat eluded security officers who tried in vain to use a snare to capture the large animal.

After 20 minutes, Emergency Services were called in, and a hydraulic spreader had to be used to lift the one-ton bomb detection machine, so that the portly cat could be accessed.

Although the cat's owners missed their flight, they were reportedly "ecstatic" that the large cat had not been harmed. Authorities described the cat as, "tired and relaxed" after all of the drama.

In related news, President Obama has reportedly had trouble confronting fat cats on Wall Street, who continue to endanger our economy. Perhaps a hydraulic lift and snare would work?

Heroic Cat Saves Pregnant Woman and Kids

Chicago Sun TImes: A woman pregnant with twins and a man sleeping on a couch with her were awakened by their pet cat when smoke started filling the room during a fire early Monday in their new home... read article

Note: After reading this article, it is interesting to note that the cat had the entire bed to itself while the pregnant woman and man were relegated to sleeping on the couch. It is also to note how useless the man and dog were during the emergency.

Chairman Meow on Wiener Mobile

While in Santa Fe New Mexico, the Oscar Mayer Wiener Mobile became a canvas for Chairman Meow propaganda. After stopping briefly downtown for lunch, the driver reportedly forgot where he parked the vehicle, asking several locals, "have you seen my wiener?"

After being detained briefly by police for questioning, he soon found his vehicle, and drove away, promoting tasty hot dogs and the Feline Revolution.

Thatcher (the cat) Has Died

TORONTO - A text message about a pet's death sparked a rumor that ex-British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher had died - and set off a flurry of diplomatic activity in Canada.

Canadian Transport Minister John Baird sent a message to phone buddies that read, "Thatcher has died" - a reference to his 16-year-old tabby cat.

But the message was misconstrued, and Prime Minister Stephen Harper was soon told the Iron Lady was dead... google news story

Choosing the Right Shelter Cat

Some people feel lonely around the holidays, but for shelter cats, that feeling can persist long after you’ve put away the decorations. “A shelter environment is very stressful for cats, no matter how nice we make it,” says Jenn Smith, cat co-chair at Danbury Animal Welfare Society (DAWS), “It is especially hard on those who have lived in a home and lost the security of both their owners and their physical home,” adds Smith.

The winter holidays lead to a surge of gifted animals that are later taken to shelters by unprepared owners. You can help counter this trend by bringing home a new feline friend for you and your current kitty... Read article

Chairman Meow in Paris

Chairman Meow finally has a (temporary) place by the Eiffel tower; the world's most visited paid monument in the world.

Built as the entrance arch for the 1889 World's Fair, the tower was the world's tallest until 1930 when the Chrysler building was completed. It consists of over 18,000 pieces of iron joined together by approximately 2.5 million rivets.

We hope that Chairman Meow's presence on the tower will inspire some of the millions of tourists who visit each year, encouraging them to adopt the radical ideology of the Feline Revolution. - thanks, Ross!

A stunning tribute to Chairman Meow

Cat owners were brought to tears of kitty-patriotism today, at an unveiling of a Chairman Meow portrait by artist Dan Lacey. Many people were overcome with emotion.

Witnesses describe several people collapsing, and others holding their cats in the air while speaking in tongues at the mere sight of this stunning portrait; leader of the Feline Revolution. "The pancake on Benevolent Leader Meow's head represents a vision of the future when cats rule the world!" cried one woman who was shaking with excitement.

It is not known what the political implications of this public response will be, or the painting was the inspiration for Sarah Palin's recent decision to step down form office to pursue a "higher calling." For a limited time, this insprational painting is available as a magnet to all cat servants.

Study Proves that Cats Control Humans

If you've ever wondered who's in control, you or your cat, a new study points to the obvious. It's your cat.

Household cats exercise this control with a certain type of urgent-sounding, high-pitched meow, according to the findings.

This meow is actually a purr mixed with a high-pitched cry. While people usually think of cat purring as a sign of happiness, some cats make this purr-cry sound when they want to be fed.

The study showed that humans find these mixed calls annoying and difficult to ignore... read the full article

More Man Openly Loving Their Cats

More Proof that the Feline Revolution is Spreading. Next, of course, will be another cat in the Whitehouse, like the days of Bill Clinton, and many other American presidents who owned cats.

NY Times: Indeed, it seems that man’s best friend is no longer a golden retriever, but a cuddly cat named Fluffy.

Although there are no hard (or soft) statistics (it is rare to find an owner, man or woman, walking a cat in public), it seems that single, heterosexual male cat owners are on the rise.

This line of thinking does not surprise cat lovers, many of whom believe that only pillars of virility and masculinity would dare to own one. They are quick to point out other well-known macho cat owners: Ernest Hemingway, Mark Twain, Victor Hugo and Marlon Brando, who reportedly found a stray cat on the set of “The Godfather” and incorporated it into a scene.

Chairman Meow in New Zealand

Chairman Meow on Daphne's car in Aro Valley, in Wellington, New Zealand

Also from Daphne, came a photo of her "GIRT-E" who reportedly helps her out with the gardening. (GIRT-E stands for “Gardening Interactive Robotic Tasking Entity)

After reviewing the photo, it is clear that an army of GIRT-E's would be a valuable asset to Chairman Meow, and to the Glorious Kitty Revolution. It is not clear what GIRT-E specifically does, but I imagine that merely seeing several hundred militant, yet feminine, robots like GIRT-E rolling down the street would be enough to inspire "shock & awe."

The GIRT-E robots would be greeted as liberators in the streets of America... Benevolent leader Chairman Meow would then, of course, have to consider a post-occupation plan, but all in due time... OT: obeythepurebreed on Perezhilton.com

Susan Boyle Misses Concert Due to Missing Cat

AP: According to the Daily Mirror, Susan Boyle did not appear in another "Britain’s Got Talent" concert last night after a hysterical screaming fit over her MIA kitty, Pebbles. (See below for one artist's vision of Susan Boyle singing a duet with her cat!)

Susan reportedly stood on the balcony of her eighth-floor hotel room overlooking the hotel atrium and repeatedly bawled: “Where’s my cat?” She was then quickly whisked out of the Liverpool hotel via a fire escape. One witness said: “She kept shouting, ‘I want my cat! ... Read more from LA Times

Chairman Meow In Tucson, Arizona

Chairman Meow's presence in Tucson, Arizona comes at a time when some say the American South West is approaching a crossroads. How will the future rise in oil prices, coupled with potential water shortages affect this city which has grown from a population of less than 8,000 in the early 20th century?

The city itself used to belong to Mexico until the Gadsden Purchase of 1853, when it was claimed by the US. The city reaches an average high temperature of over 100 degrees during July, and averages only 11 inches of rain per year.

In any event, Chairman Meow is proud to have a presence in Tucson, and he hopes that his presence there profoundly affects the daily lives of it's residents, possibly reminding them that they must use solar energy to offset high oil prices.

His solemn expression foreshadows potential border war with Mexico, as immigrants (possibly infected with deadly Swine Flu) stream into the streets of Tucson desperate for food and drinking water, firing their guns into the air chanting "viva la raza!" (Sorry, Chairman Meow is tired today, and is seeing the world a little "glass-half-empty")
