Cat Recovery Mission

Hey everyone!  Julie here.  I'm sorry it's been such a long time since we posted anything.  I caught the flu and then I caught the excitement of my first surgical tech job and I kind of forgot all about these stories.  Well, not forgot exactly, more like thought "I should really get the stories rolling again" at the end of a long, happily tiring day when I couldn't even be bothered to drag myself to my computer.

Anyway, we're back!!  Let me catch you up on the adventures of our intergalactic warriors.  When we last left them, Isabel and Katie were assembling the International Cats ONLY Space Station while the boys caught some zzzzz's.  All of this space travel came to be, of course, because some ugly "research" reported that cats were killing billions of birds and should probably be "depopulated."  Our heroes are no fools:  they ramped up their plans to escape a planet full of obviously jealous humans and they blasted off to parts of the universe unknown to any jerks!

What happened next, you ask?  Well...the girls had the space station fully assembled before the boys could even wipe the drool off their chins!

Wow!  Never doubt the ingenuity and determination of a couple of bright women!!  Great job, Isabel and Katie!!  

Of course, by this time, the rumors of cat annihilation turned out to be the ramblings of some sick maniac, and when the rest of "Chicken Little's" followers came and saw the evidence of a healthy bird population in the tree that looms over our truck like a mid-air toilet, they decided that cats were pretty cool after all and they stopped talking about killing them and decided to give them free milkies and ear scratchies instead.  After repeated failed attempts to communicate with our feline tribe in outer space, Stupendous Rainy and I decided to blast our way through outer space, attacking anything that got in our way so we could bring our babies and their friends home.  

Whew!  That was a really scary trip!  We could have died and everything!

Anyway, after all our crazy adventures, Casa de Tribe Atherton is a full house again and we'll be telling our stories from THIS planet for awhile.  Thank you, Katie and Waffles Too for accompanying our kids on their great intergalactic adventure!  We'll be seeing you again soon.  ;)

Love, 

Julie, Stupendous Rainy, and the 4 leggeds
