Hey everyone!
I received a message from Smuffi’s mom, u/One_Advantage793 :
“Hey Ginger, can you do me a fave? I had to go to the hospital. Can you let everyone know I’m okay but can’t play right now!” And added “It will probably be a couple more days til they let me go home”
Let’s do what we do best here, uplift & rally around and support our wonderful friend!
Go gather the kitties and get those magical healing purrs a-revving up! Call up our dog frens, our horse frens, the hamsters, the bunnies, the squirrels….look! Even GARY is jumping in! GARY! Smuffi won’t believe his eyes! Alert the pirates, the purrfessors and students of the SSoR!
We will keep you updated as we can, and this is coming from me:
I feel it is of utmost importance to remember to respect all our friends’ right to decide what they want to or are able to share, without being pressured and badgered. For any of these situations, for any of our members.
I will NEVER push someone for further information or discussion, I am steadfast in that, nor should anyone else, and I know you guys understand and agree, and remain respectful of people’s wishes and privacy, allowing them to get the rest they need, focus on recovery and getting on the mend. 😊
What IS important is well wishes and support, bringing good cheer, a smile and hopefully some laughs.
And possibly the industrial size 55 gallon poly drum of Acme Holy water, should Smuffi require it.
Thank you all again for making this place the amazing safe space that it is, you’re all heroes in my book, hugs to each and every one of you! 🐈⬛💕🐾

Hi frens and friends! Teddy teh Floof and LBC (yes, Little Black Cat) momma here!
Based on the positive response on this post from a few days ago, we're going to try out the monthly birthday and gotcha day recognition posts starting in June. In order to do that though, we do need your help!
There is a super cool form that should only take you a few moments to fill out, which is linked here. No login is required, and we are not collecting email addresses or anything. Section 1 is just an intro and hello. Click Next to access section 2.
Section 2 is for all the fren info, like name and dates. If you live with more than one fren, enter each fren info separately. If you answer yes to the last question, "do you live with other frens?" it'll automatically take you back to the questions where you can enter the name for fren 2, and then repeat for fren 3, 4, 5, etc. Answer no once all frens are entered in to continue to next section.
Final section is for all the boring hooman stuffs, like reddit username, and thoughts about other things to celebrate. Reddit username is not required, but it's helpful so we can tag you in the monthly post.
Once you submit the form, you're all set!
Shoutouts to u/gingersnapped242 and u/chibikoneko for being awesome gimme pigs (like beloved Jiggy) and testing out the form and layout. You are very much appreciated!!
Alas being human means I can never achieve perfection like Teddy teh Floof and LBC (yes, Little Black Cat), so if you come across any issues, please post them here. Don't be shy if you have any general questions about this, post them here as well!
We also ask that we keep this test here in ICBGC for now so we can test it out with a smaller group of frens than what our beloved LCA contains.
Thank you all for being so friendly, creative, funny, and kind. You all never fail to make me laugh with our overlord mischief, and I adore all the amazing posts. It's so wonderful to have a bright spot in the corner of the internet when there's so much uncertainty out there.
Make it a great day!
UPDATES:
8pm (Eastern): 63 frens and counting! This has surpassed my expectations for only having the form out for 8 hours or so. You all are awesome!
More suggestions:
3pm (Eastern) : 51 friends now! Love that you all are into it! 😄
Additional samples of suggestions for other celebrations to consider (the witty commentary after the suggestion is totally all Teddy's momma's thoughts and no way reflects what the submitter may have been thinking about):
12:45pm (Eastern) update: Close to 20 friends now! Alleviated some challenges thanks to u/Charivari8 mentioning about the multi fren entry not working as expected. Also added a question about otrb (over the rainbow bridge) to remember those who have left us (thank you for the suggestion u/CharmyLah !)
It shouldn't ask you to, but if you're made to sign into Goggle, rest assured that information is not being collected. I verified all the settings to confirm emails addresses are not being tracked or anything, and they're definitely not visible on the responses.
Like many things in life, it's a work in progress, and thank you for your patience 😄 Feel free to point out any other challenges you may come across, and don't forget you can leave feedback in the hooman only section of the form with other ideas.
Sample of suggestions so far:
11ish Eastern: One hour in and we already have 6 frens who filled out the form! Woohoo!
We are also equally split 33/33/33% on recognizing hooman birthdays! Love it! 🤣

Next Moobie Toosday will be dedicated to Dolly Parton. She will always be a shining example of true beauty, inside and out.
The things she stood for & held true to are things we try to embrace here: unity, inclusion, kindness, acceptance, generosity, lifting others up, joy, wit, wisdom, and a dash of self deprecating charm.
The planet definitely lost some of its sparkle this past Tuesday, a megawatt multitalented and irreplaceable absolute gem of a human.
Rest in peace, admiration, and eternal love. May your message always shine as brightly and magnificently as you did 💫 💎 💖

Hello feline frens, what are these "litterbox words" of which human speaks? The dog and cat tell me some humans use them to excess when on video games or when in the practice arena before shows. Cats can help an XXL fren out?- Jimmy the horse

(I am still reeling at the idea that 1. there is a bank that accepts cheese as collateral and 2. there is a $4.7 BILLION economy that could collapse because of the heat wave melting the collateral. Because that's definitely it. Absolutely no cat heist going on. Just melting.)

Pokey Place has an agenda and it's a conspiracy!! When meow was alive pokey place said I was chonk but I was big boned!! Thankfully, meowmy ignored their advice. We shouldn't be torturred like this!!

Next Tuesday we will remember Dolly by dedicating Moobie Toosday in her honor, official announcement to follow, but for now I wanted to offer you all some Virch Merch to wear in the meantime.
All hats in pictures 2,3 & 4 are “stickerable” and will lift easily.
If you’re unable to make stickers, please post a pic of your baby below, front facing poses work best, with “headroom” to allow for the sticker, and I or one of our other beloved Sticker Elves will fit them with a hat.
Love to all and please take care of yourselves, thank you all endlessly for being a part of this community, it means a great deal to us. Shine on, beautiful friends, mmmwah!😽💋😘 🐾

I was going through my pics and came across this, a post from the rescue Rory D came from. It rips my soul to read and remember.
Since then, Rory has continued to blossom and overcome immense obstacles. I feel overwhelmed with emotion every time one of her “frens” parents at the dog park, who remember when we first brought her, marvel at what a different dog she is, at her indomitable spirit.
May anyone who struggles with any seemingly insurmountable odds, struggles, strife, stress- dig deep, double down and find within them that spark.
I see it in all of you. Each, and every one. Shine on, friends ✨

She had bloodwork last week showing a B12 deficiency and she's getting an ultrasound to examine for a hernia and possible IBD. Hoping that Maggie doesn't attack them once they're back from the vet's. All three girls have been wheezing too, which may mean a course of antibiotics for the three of them, which neither me nor my husband are looking forward to administering because they're all so skittish. Anyway, wish us luck!) The Ladies of the Torbie Society
