ASK_kooPURRSmith launches: CRINGE: #Cats R In Need Getting Enormous (#CRINGE).

DateLine:  Saturday, December 23, 2017 - 7:17 PM CST

Saturday 12-23-2017 marks Year 26 since The CATalyst of "The Event on West Rosemont" that inspired and spurred me on to create:

Cartoonists Against Crime ©1991

and

a Decade later:

Cartoonists Against Terrorism ©2001 

that would zoom to the Top as one of the most Educational Facets ever attached to Comic Art in its entire History.  It would be later proven that the Format of CAC would begin a Series of Holidates a (CATalyst in more than one way) that would then change "The Face" of Pop - Popular Culture one Event - at a Time that I would

LIFE BECAME KNOWN AS: What came before and after December 23, 1991

(ie:  Everyone has a "911"  - One Horrific Event - in their Lives that separates all Others; that makes them eternally grateful for being given just one more Day).

My Particular Story encapsulated:

After being violently assaulted, robbed and left-for-dead (in a Pool of Blood...my own on Monday, #December_23_1991), I have been incredibly grateful for the last [addition of 26 Years of Life] in which I have tried to "pay back" by way of  my Style of Living a Full and Diligent Life that emerged in the Culmination of an immense Body of Creative Literary Works impressively based on these Life Lessons learned and Events to commemorate that "make our Days better," the likes that have never been seen or created by One Solo Person(ality) before in such a relatively minuscule Period of Fleeting Time.

Keeping The MEOWmentum (Momentum) strong:  

On this Date, Saturday, December 23, 2017, 26 years later, I'm launching:

CRINGE in order for Cats <^..^< to find the best Home with loving Parents (Humans) who will care for them; love them and treat them with Respect, Kindness & Gentleness.  

Inspired by my Calico, Cali, that Twitter Post (Tweet of Today sent out at 7:21 PM CST) reads as:

#ASK_KooPURRSmith_on_CATS:

It’s fritening how many #Cats R In Need Getting Enormous (#CRINGE).

It makes me CRINGE: As a #CatLover 4 65 Years & #Cali’s Human, Ive resculpted my #NationalSplurge Day 2 enCATsulate their Needs down 2 the #Turquoise (the Color of Serenity) Bowls:   

Our Favorite "Together" Pix

On The Back Porch where We lived for 5 Months

(November 4, 2016 - April 30, 2017)

She's "THE CAT."

How I love seeing Cali without a Collar & Leash on

being "THE CAT" she was meant-to-be

 but

with Dogs & Rats & PAWSible freak Incidents occuring

[all without Notice & within Seconds of Time],

Cali is on a Leash when she goes out now.

And she does "go out"

- outside that is -  

whereby many "City Cats" remain as Indoor Pets.

 This is because in my Household, 

I insist she retain as much of her

Kittiness & Catness

as she possibly & PAWSibly can.

Living in a Big Concrete Jungle (purr se) is unlike that of a

sprawling, sunny Savannah

where Man-made Obstructions intrude, single-out & produce

an horrific Deletion from The Quality of Life

 for the wonderful Diversity of Creatures Man domesticated in the FURst place,

a Topic that drives me insane, 

especially so, since The Degrees of Extinction have never been greater. 

Albeit,

 Scientists now proclaim We (Inhabitants living during the 21st Century)

 are in The Mists of Extinction #6.

Although Tomorrow is never promised to us,

it is getting all the more dire as each Sunrises as to what

Life-altering Event (War - Man-Made or Nature-induced Disasters)

will proceed to destroy the Life We once knew as it did for me on

December 23, 1991 at 6 PM CST.

Now at 65, My Promise to The Cat, #Cali_The_Calico  

I share my Life with is that she be

Safe

Sound

Spoiled

PamPURRed

& 

Loved

(all at One Time, of course)

What it means to be THE CAT is that she is "The CEO of My Heart." 

Cali is "The Boss."  

Unequivically and Quivically. 

Beyond and Before The Shadow of a Doubt.  

AS A PROUD CAT PARENT, how My PURRenting Skills kick into gear:

Before I do anything for and FUR me, I check to see that all of her Needs are taken care {of}.

INSERT:  As to spoiling her and departing on our very own Diet & Exercise Programs as of Friday, #December_29_2017...those are Action-Activities I'm surely PURRone - prone to talk about here on this CALified Blog, as was Cali's Stint of officially tracking Santa Claus across The Planet on December 24 and taking Screen Photos of her clocking his Voyage on our Dell PURRSonal Computer. Next year, We will have an APP for that...

But, above all else, it breaks My Heart to leave her Home (alone) for long Hours on end.  Therefore, I amend "My Outside Chores" to make sure those Stints are not as long.  She is, after all, spending a huge Quadrant of Time waiting for me to return to her.  Who could ask for a better Reception of Deep Throat Purrs and Head-Rubs?

As a Writer, We all know how long those Hours can be. Having a "FurBall" to come home to; who sits longingly on your Lap & purrs melodically in your Ear is The Best InsPURRation and Medicine a Creatif can get. Can you say:

MEOWdicine

MEOW + Me-dicine = MEOWdicine ™

ASK: Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith Quote

#December_26_2017 - 8:10 AM CST

Hearsay states that We Humans rescue Cats. I disagree, strongly.  Cats rescue Humans.  From themselves and The Harm they can produce against each other & all Life, in general all The Time as all of us have experienced One Way or the other.  What CAli does or shows me is interweaved into My Life as I consider her My Teacher as well as someone I PURRfer spending "My Time & Days" with.

 

I must also add that Cali My Calico has been declawed by her former Owners so her Chances of being outside our Apartment and romping/hunting in Nature (in a Big City where Traffic runs rampant 24/7) and "Home Alone" become Critical Issues.

Although it is highly unlikely from occurring, if she happens to get and go outside without my Care, Supervision and Protection, she (like all Indoor Pets includsing Birds and Dog) is more prone to Hazards.  We reside on a High Floor and, as of yet, she cannot press The Elevator Button. The Bottom Line is:

Declawing is a Form of Animal Abuse, of course, 

must be stopped for The Sake of The Cats' Welfare.

When you are up to parr and up-to-purr via a Feline Team Mate as #Cali: 

Then you are The Luckiest Human on Planet Earth...

There's NO Ands, Buts or Meows about it:  U R  very, very lucky.

"The Kitty is The Spirit of The House. As a Person who admires ATAC: All Things About Cat(s) – your Cat’s Human - you have nothing better to do than care for her; love her; share Precious Time with her & play with her. Time devoted to anything else is wasted.  The Wonderfulness of those who opt (have the #op_PURR_ity) 2 live their Life with a Cat (1, 2, 3 or more), defined as a #CA_n_T_een of Kitties, are the luckiest Lot in the World."

Feline Advo_CAT_e:

Dateline:  Sunday, January 28, 2018 

When anything carries The POW POW Power of a Missile, it instantly becomes a Force to be reckoned with. Derived from The Term: Miscellaneous.  In this #PURR_ticular Case on Sunday, January 28, 2018 at 4:36 AM, I was hit by THE THOUGHT that CRINGE should also stand for:

CATS R IN NEED GEOGRAPHICALLY EVERYWHERE

which is The Truth of The Matter. Therefore, the full Title of this Campaign is now:

CRINGE ~ CRINGE ™

CATS R IN NEED GETTING ENORMOUS

CATS R IN NEED GEOGRAPHICALLY EVERYWHERE

in order to double-up on its Impact and Meaning to make certain that MISSILE Strength Actions are taken in order that CATS’ Lives are bettered.

YoTS: Year of The Shadow. Beyond the Shadow of a Doubt, a non-descript HOLiDATE filters into your Daily Activities for 2018. Inspired by #ASK_Chicago.

 

“May you see Sunshine

where others see Shadows

&

Opportunities where others see Obstacles.”

DateLine:  #December_20_2017

BEYOND APPROACH & REPROACH:

With only 11 more Days left in this robust & ambitious Year, it's Time to launch more  year-long (full & tantalizing) Holidates that are entertaining and usable as the New Year 2018 kicks in.

This BLOG #1257 will be devoted to:  YoTS:  Year of The Shadow ©2017.  Not "The Shadow" who was made into a Movie back in The Day but The Shadows We cast when the Sun is in the right place at the right time.  I became fascinated with them moreso after I got my first Smartphone in September of 2017 - equipped with a Camera. Many of the Pics I took cast Shadows that I thought were more interesting than the actual Image I was trying to capture

My favorite Model, a natural Poser is our Cat, #Cali_The_Calico whose Shadow is captured every Morning when The Southern Exposure to our Home parallels itself exactly with how The Sun moves across The Chicago Skyline.  The following Photo is a Double Vision (Mistake) I happened to snap of her as she was examining her new SoC:  Stash of Catnippola. ATT: At The Time of this Insertion  on January 3, 2018 at 5:20 AM CST, all of her Photos are in my Smartphone and will be inserted later this year:

Cali's Catnip: 2017:  

Whisker City Premium Catnip:

 800-806-4229

Therefore, I said to myself:  "Adrienne, as "America's Premier Eventologist" with over 1,900 Holidates on The Books and Roster since July 25, 1990, you need to salute this as I'm sure there are other Photographers who are enticed by what a Shadow does."  It begins a dialog - a conversation on something else that is in the Background but which makes a Statement on its very own, as we never really KNOW who or what a Shadow is...or do We?

One thing I always liked about "MY SHADOW" is that it made me look taller and thinner than what I really am.  Since January always starts most of us off on our new and improved Resolutions for the New Year, again I'm confronted with eating healthily & wisely.  If I take a few pages from My Shadow's Book, then I'll be healthier than I've ever been before.  

Therefore, without further adieu, throughout the Course of the Year, 2018 we will be exploring the Lore of The Shadow and how those ghostly Phenomenon play into The full Psyche of Modern Day Man-Woman-Child and Pet and every Object caught in the Spectrum found betwixt & between.  Perfecting Shadow Photography will also be 1 of the Goals with the better Shadow Shots appearing here from:

January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018.

During the Summer of 2017,

Cali The Calico was visiting Seniors

 on a Chicago Skyscraper (high on a Rooftop) 21 floors closer

to where The Sun is located when

ASK snapped this Photo of her. 

Quite unexpectedly, a Double Shadow was caught:

1) of her

&

2) of the Chair's Back located in the Rear of this Photo.

 

#FiLE: When nice Surprises enter our Day that are

fine enough for Blog Postings & Entries as this...

 

 

SEPTEMBER 10, 2018 MORNING UPDATE:

 

S H A D O W S have taken a backseat for far too long. Unfortunately, I do not remember exactly when I realized what they were nor when I “got into them” but I found them to be an absolute Delight to photograph once I got my first Smartphone equipped with its own Camera. Although upon Reflection I would snap Pictures of them with my Throwaway Camera that (for what they are) would take some mighty fine Pictures throughout the Decades.

 

Since Shadows always followed me around for Decades of Time (it seems), I decided to shed some Light upon their True Beauty.  So smitten with my Shots, I proclaimed 2018 as: 
 

YoTS:  Year of The Shadow ©2017

 

so others could see what’s at our very Feet, Backs, Sides and an integral Part of our Inner & Outer Beings and Worlds.  Thus, this BLOG entertains that Notion that’s often not considered as they should 

online @:

 

http://adriennesiouxkoopersmith.blogspot.com/2017/12/yots-year-of-shadow-beyond-shadow-of.html

 

Building my Business & Creative Reputation of creating Holidates out of any Topic I so please and particularly like, I happen to like Shadows very much as you can instantly tell.  Shadows fascinate me.  Judging from my Shadow-Shots alone, I suddenly have NO Cellulite and that's a pretty nice Thing.

 

No Wrinkles.

No Split Ends.

No Gray Hairs.

No sagging Jowls.

Nothing that places me into a Negative Light.

 

 

 

I’m sure that List continues far on into Eternity. 
 

Social Media (that’s driven by Photography) is strewn with a Plethora of good (sometime dynamic) Cast of Shadows.   
 

Shadows are just here, there and everywhere if your Timing is right. All We have to do is stop, look at them, in awe and snap their Picture till they fade away forever like a Snowflake melting on a sunny Day. 
 

Today, Bob, Cali & I live in a Semi-Forested Area right off Lake Michigan (at the far North Shore of Chicago). As The Day begins and progresses, magnificent Shadows grace our Grounds depending on where The SUN is & how clear The DAY is.  Shadows are cast, no matter WHO We are & WHERE We are going or coming from.  Shadows do not discriminate. 
 

One of my Three greatest Daily Joys is to watch my Cat, Cali stalk around The Grounds (in Nature being The Cat she was born to be) & seeing her Shadow.  I take her out 3-5 times a Day on a Leash for #CATXercise & she hasn't chased any of them yet - only The Birds, Squirrels & Rabbits in The "OutBack." I'm ready with my Camera when she does.
 

 

With this Addition, I am proclaiming 2018-2028 as:

DECADE OF THE SHADOW ©2018

 

as of: 

Monday, September 10, 2018 – 9 AM CST

 

 

 

After all, We are them and they are us from our Start to our End.
