But has anyone gotten my Christmas card yet?

See all my masters here: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/
It arrived today, and it's delightful!

Thank you! I had fun doing it. Did Holly and Duffy like the bit of
fluff? ;>
One question, though, did you get the "Meow at the Moon" reference, or
was it too obscure for anyone but a 70s rocker?
Hugs,

What bit of fluff? Should there have been some fur inside? If so, Holly
and Duffy were cheated because our card didn't include any. Or am I
showing my age again and missing another reference?
No, I braved the dangers of Sammy's monster claws and teeth *twice* in
December in order to get enough hair to knit *two* kittens (I swear I could
brush her every single day and still get a ball of hair off her the size of
my head)! I also brushed all the other cats and got a thimble full of hair
to mix with Sammy's. I included a bit of hair in every card (I should have
put more than a bit, but I didn't know I'd have enough to fill all 52 cards
and *still* have enough left over to knit a kitten! ;> It may have fallen
out when you opened the card?
I would not have understood the "Meow at the Moon" reference except that
you had another message where you mentioned it. Otherwise, I think I'm
too old to "catch" that reference.

When we first got the boys, we named Archer for Captain Archer of the
starship "Enterprise" because he's a fearless explorer - willing to go where
no cat has gone before (which is why he's always getting into trouble).
But Archer's brother was very, *VERY* laid back, a bit laconic even. He
loved to eat catnip and just roll around in it until he fell asleep. The
only time he perked up was when Ben was playing his guitar or metal music on
his stereo. So we ended up naming him for a doped-up, burnt-out ex rocker,
Ozzy Osborne. In 2000, Ozzy Osborne came out with a CD called "Bark at the
Moon" (http://www.amazon.com/Bark-at-Moon-Ozzy-Osbourne/dp/B000068R1X) or
http://tinyurl.com/37l6e2. Thus, since Ozzy is the cat reincarnation of
Ozzy Osborne, the reference to his "Meow at the Moon" tour. ;>
I *TOLD* Ben that not many people were going to get that "inside joke", but
he insisted I leave it in and, oh well, if it makes him happy! ;>
The funny thing is that both boys are still living up to their namesakes!
