A Brief History of Cat Blogging

My furiends, we is amazed to realize just how long we's been bloggin. An when Bonnie left us, it's astonishin (an humblin) how many furiends said we had sumfing to do wif them startin their blogs. You's said we's stars in the blogosphere, but der are ofurs WE fink of as the stars.

Then anofur long-time blogger was losted last week, an sum of yous nefur knowed him. That made me sad cuz his blog was one of the ones that inspired US to gif it a shot. He wasn't the primary bloggin cat, but a strong background supporter fur one of the first cat blogs we finded.

About the time I was borned sumwhere in Marathon County, Whiskconsin (approx Mar 1, 2005), Mom discovered sum of the "foundin puddins of cat bloggin":

• Psychokitty Max
  
• Prince Muddy Paws, The Blogging Cat (At dem's old site on Angelfire an usin TextAmerica* - dat's where we started afore moofin to Blogger)
• Diva Kitty & the Fluffies, efun afore they moofed from Blogger to WordPress
  
• Jasper McKitten-Cat
• Timothy Dickens
• William of Mass Destruction
• Sanjee, Boni, an Mini frum HotMBC, when thems had seperate blogs

Mom specially enjoyed Max an Muddy's blogs, an noticed dat Max was mostly werds wif few pictors, while Muddy was mostly pictors, wif few werds. It wasn't dat she didn't like the ofur blogs, but she didn't favorite any blogs (DUH) an had to Google them efurry time! Den Max's fambly brot home Buddah Pest an Mom was efun more confinced she mite get a second kitty - ME!

I dopted Mom Oct 29, 2005 an der was so much to say bout me an Bonnie, Mom started a photoblog on TextAmerica*. Den she gaf Blogger a try, an here we is, bout 2.5 years later! Asides blogger, we's also got lotsa good furiends on Flickr an Catster, an many across all 3 catmunities!

We fink of ourselfs as part of the 2nd generashun of cat bloggers. Da first generashun includes efurryone abof an sum we didn't know yet like Abbie the Cat, Oreo an Edsel. I guess we's veterans, but then we'd be "vets" an I don't wanna be a vet! We's also met cats frum all ofur the werld an lerned dat cat lovers are efurrywear! ::spin::

So dat's what I gots to say bout da history of cat bloggin. Just look at how many cat blogs der are now! Hugs an purrs to efurry one of yous!!!
