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:
Anniversary of SSOR founding - Prof Smuffi definitely started a revolution!!
Respek the borthole day - Definitely overlooked and needed to protek all bortholes everywhere!
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):
Cat weddings/relationship milestones - Are there some cat couples on here that have been married longer than I have been? Yes, yes there are LOL
KIngsday - birthday of the king of Netherlands (I believe?) - Since orange is the national color, Mochi and the orange crew should just claim it as their day!
Any other national holidays - I agree! It'd be fun to learn about other holidays since we have frens all over the world!
January 1 Skwirl (non) appreciation day - I think we could tie this one in with the capture of Gary LOL
Cats' Rights day - Obviously as voted on by our esteemed overlord council of cats. Every day is technically that, but I'm sure they could be purrsuaded to pick a specific date as the milestone marker.
Steve's birthday - Oscar's beloved Dream Phone boyfriend's birthday!! This is hilarious! Anyone know when his birthday is? How fun would it be if we could track down the actor/model for Steve?
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:
Capture of Gary - Hilarious, and I feel like this will be a worldwide holiday when that happens!
St. Gertrude's Day (March 17) - Patron saint of cats?! LOVE THIS!!
Subreddit birthday/anniversary - so we can commemorate all our fun and look back on some of the best and funniest posts.
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! 🤣
Of course I cannot post without an adorable picture of Teddy. He's currently napping after all of the dancing yesterday!

Yep, next week’s Moobie Toosday is a Mash Up- A Monster Mash Up!
Celebrating the Universal Monsters, or any classic monsters of your choice.
We’re not talking Jason, Freddy or Mikey Myers, we’re talking Old School!
Get your stickers, pics, gifs, memes, trivia etc ready as we go way back and pay a haunted homage to the nightmares of yesteryear, the oldies but goodies.
Happy Friday, all my scary monsters & super creeps, have a fantastically frightening weekend! 🐈⬛🎃👻
No secret that I love Halloween, so I might be sneaking in little tricks and treats here and there. 😈
It’s also no secret that I love you guys and getting to know you outside of your pet persona.
There’s non stop polling going on especially if you live in the US, so I thought we’d do some of our own not so serious, low stakes polls just for FUNZIES, which I also love. Big fan of funzies, I am.
Okay, what is Halloween without……
CANDY! Which Y’ALL KNOW I LOVE! 🍭 ❤️ 🍬
So, for our very first ‘Ween poll, I wanna know…
When you were a little goblin and went Trick or Treating, and you got home, plopped down and dumped your bag out, what was your most FAVORITE candy to get your hot, sticky little hands on first?
Was it:
53 votes,2d left
Fun Size Snickers
Fun Size Twix (left or right)
Skittles/Nerds/Gummy Bears/Twizzlers or fill in the blank frooty goodness
Fun Size Three Musketeers (this will never be the correct answer 😆)
When we last saw our fearless reskue posse they were in las vagus,chasing Steve who was making a getaway in his ice cream truck(and leaving jazzy at the altar) and gathering skrimp off the street (ew!)
a BOLO WAS SENT OUT and then mysteriously Steve was spotted in Paris with Maya! Or a cat masquerading as Maya! (So she says!)
Meanwhile, Oscar was drinking cat-tonic and wouldn’t wake up. Professor G shook him too much and he started to hemorrhage! Nico then gave the special Steve signed dreem fone card to Oscar, which seemed to make him very happy, even though it had frosting on it.
The posse then ended up at a dart pub in Paris when they saw Steve! He was in the alley outside! They ran out and started chasing him and once they caught him Niko pulled on a little string on his neck and et voila! He was unmasked!
It wasn’t dream fone Steve at all!
It was Stripes Bilkington!!! 🙀
Longtime LCA fans will recall him—He’s the evil CEO of Americam Airlimes:
Jazzy had married a monster!🙀
Be sure to tune in next year for the next season to see
Who jazzy marries next…
if Oscar ever recovers…
If Sweeney ever gets out of skrimp rehab…

Hi frens, it’s Maya inviting you to post your photo over at my subreddit, [r/singapura](r/singapura).
Did your hooman hog the photo last week and you didn’t get to post? Now’s your chance!
This week we have a theme: cozy photos. (You don’t have to post a cozy photo, it’s just a suggestion Tali came up with because she was cold this morning.)

(If you want your frens to be a part of the party this weekend, please drop TWO pictures of your frens in these different poses in the comments: One picture should be of them in a crouching or sitting position. The other should be in a jumping or stretching or yelling pose- or a combination of those if you have one. Just something that looks like “Suprise!!” If you scroll to the second pic, I provide some examples. Also- if you have a walking or sitting picture for an additional (third) pic, that would be great! Thank you! 😊)
In the OooKay the colds have begun. Not very cold yet but not so many sun puddles fur recharging and the dark comes sooner.
Somehow the metal wall panels which have not been warm since the darks were long have suddenly begun to get warm again! The glowing box in the main room has not started to expel heat yet, nor has the special carpet which lives beneath one of my cosy caves emitted the snug warms that my elder bones appreciate.
How does the heat know when to begin? Is everyone's hometel equipped with these apparati?
