Summer Officially Arrived!!

Hi my furiends! The Summer Solstice officially arrived in the Eastern Time Zone at 12:24am !! Mom and I went through our archives and found a post that last appeared in 2014 that celebrates this momentous occasion! Enjoy! Love, Cody

It wouldn't be the first day of Summer without me repeating the song that I first posted on Cat Chat on June 21st 2010, it has now become our little tradition...Enjoy!

This should be Meowed or sung to the tune of Mungo Jerry's classic "In The Summertime".......

"purr purr-purr uh, purr purr-purr, uh


purr purr-purr, uh, purr purr-purr, uh..."



"In the summertime when the weather is hot

You can stretch right out and be on your favorite cot,


When the weather's fine


You got playing, you got romping on your mind




Have some nip, have a climb



Go out and see what you can find"




"If her Daddy's rich, take her out for some filet,


If her Daddy's poor, just stay in and play,



Speed around the house,



really speed, really speeeed big time my friend,



When the sun goes down, you can make it



make it home before day's end"


"We're no threat, we kitties, we're not dirty, we're not mean


We love everybody, but we do as we please




When the weather's fine

We go fishing or go climbing up some trees



We're always happy



Life's for living, yeah that's our "felineosophy"


"Sing along with us, mew-mew-mew-mew-mew


purr-purr-purr-purr-purr yeah, we're hap-happy.......



mew-mew-mew-mew-mew...."



"Purr purr-purr, uh, purr purr-purr, uh



Purr purr-purr, uh, purr purr-purr, uh...."


"When the winter's here, yeah it's sleepy time


Bring a toy mouse



Wear your finest fur, it'll soon be summertime



And we'll sing again






We'll go jumpin' or maybe we'll settle down



If she's got "noms" or if she's got mice



Bring your kitty friends and we'll all go into town...."



Happy First Day Of Summer All!!

Make This A Great Summer For You And Your Favorite Felines!!





Thanks to Mungo Jerry's "In The Summertime" for the inspiration for this parody.

  8. You are too cute, Cody. But now that summer is "officially" here would it be rude to tell it that it's more than welcome to leave at any time? ;)

  10. Looks like you're having a great day - we'll be enjoying the solstice here a lot (we got it started off strong with a 2 mile walk! Well, not Schooner, he just lazed around the house).

  12. Love your lyrics, Cody! Make sure you get some sunscreen on the tips of your ears and your nose; they can get ouchie with a sunburn.
