Meeting and Greeting

February 11, 2019 By: Summer Samba34 Comments

somali cat during meet the breeds setup

When my human set up my booth at Meet the Breeds, I was really worried about how plain it looked. I was so relieved to see the big cutout of Vana that you saw yesterday. But there was more.

The poster with my photos from last year was back!

Yes, they are all of me! I’m glad I’m representing the breed so well!

somali cat meeting and greeting fans at Meet the Breeds

I will be honest — we were so busy at Meet the Breeds that my human didn’t get very many good photos. I did get to meet some Instagram friends’ humans who live nearby — @harley_tank_quinn and @theodore_h_kittycat. They have photos of me on their Instagram accounts.

Lola and Lexy’s human came by too, and hung out with us at the booth. She brought a pair of “nerd” sunglasses that neither Lola nor Lexy would agree to wear. I don’t know why — I had no problem with them! Sadly, this is the only photo of my human’s that came out, with me not facing the camera! Even though the day was a big photo FAIL for us, I did a lot of meeting and greeting with bunches of people!

While my human went off and had dinner with Lola and Lexy’s human, I crashed out on the bed. It was a really tiring day!

I will say, I was really happy to come home! It’s too cold back east for me right now!

    Oh Summer, to me, none of this is boring. I wish I had been there. Your human should hire me to cook, clean and help with kitty duty. Lol it would be a dream come true

    You looked adorbs in the glasses! We’re glad they weren’t too huge for your head. Our mom had SUCH a good time seeing both of you, and she can’t wait to see you again. She told us that you were the purrfect and professional celebricat – as always! (P.s. it sure was cold here! We’re glad you had a jacket.)

    I *LOVE* the picture of you all pooped out from working so hard! Of course, sleeping is my favorite thing! You looked wonderful in your pictures! (And when you mentioned a cardboard cutout of Vana we thought you’d misspelled Vanna–White, ha ha meow!)

    Next year you’ll have to bring booties in case it snows like it did last night and tonight. TW really enjoyed her time with you and your human. It was too cold for her to go into the city Saturday.

    Sounds like an awesome weekend! If your human wasn’t able to get photos of you, it means you were super busy meeting all your adoring fans and being an amazing spokeskitty!

    My favorite poses of yours, are when you sit in the “Queen Pose” (most call that Kittyloaf Pose), and when you roll onto your back and show your tummy! (that’s a “Looking Cute” pose!)

    You seem to have a new set of wardrobe for this event. We cant remember seeing you in the dress on pic#2.

    Several people must have taken your picture while you
    were wearing the parka.
    We definitely need some more pictures of you in the new
    red sunglasses.
    I’m glad to know you are safely back home in warmer
    climes.

    We love that poster of you! Your mom takes great pictures. We definitely have to see what those glasses looked like on you. Sometimes it’s just too busy and crazy to take pictures mom says. It’s ok. So glad you girls are back home. Can’t wait to see more pics. Purrs

    Brian was right. YOU made the booth. It doesn’t need anything but you. I know mom said just now that she wishes she could have met Lola and Lexi’s mom and you and your mom. It would have been the highlight of the month for her she said. She is fond of Lola’s mom and yours, and all three kitties, you, Lola and Lexi.
