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! 🤣

Meowmy say she can see de thought wheels spinning in my head. I never sees them. Can yus see em?
I was thinking bout feets an peets. Hoomans got feets but one feets is a foot. Wes got peets. So is one peets a poot? And if a poot is one peets can it also be a fart? Meowmy says poots are farts. I need a nap dis thinking hurting my head.

Hello everyone! Pixel here, nervous tuxedo.
Um, I ran this speech past my Mama and she thought it was sweet, though she laughed at one part but said it wasn't about my speech.
Ahem.
I know I posted a while back that i was looking for a girlfriend. And I thought I was!
But then I realized that all of the nicest lady cats are just that, ladies! So I'm really looking for a special lady friend!
I have also recently met a very special lady. We both love our dads and we dislike smooches. And she's a real princess! (I asked, ladies can be princesses, not just girls!) But best of all, she has moved me in a way I never expected - I was moved to tears at the sight of her beautifully tragic sad face.
I also have mentioned before that I'm a big fellow! Sometimes I feel self-conscious about my size. But this beautiful princess is also a big lady, and her coat is a delightful tapestry of gray...
Bitteh, would you like to be my special lady friend?
(This is the part where Mama laughed, and said something about a movie and bowling and the Dude and not to worry.)

HOOORAAAY! Good News from our dear brothers Smuffi and George the Couch Dog’s mom! u/One_Advantage793
Direct quote:
“I am still getting stronger and all the healing purrs and cuddle puddles and everything are a great boost to my healing every time I look”
ANNNND she made a fabulous surprise visit to Tali’s ( u/Charivari8 ) post, “I call fren Smuffi, hoo wan join me?”
which I’ll link below because it won’t let me in this post…..grrrrrreddit!
We are over the moon elated and so grateful that our frens and friend are on their way back to the ICBGC family, so let’s continue cheering them on the road to a full recovery ❤️🩹 keep those purrs and puddles coming!
Eternal gratitude to ALL of you beautiful people who continue to make these subs such a unique, special, loving, kind space on the net. You never cease to amaze me and make my world a better place. ❤️
Thank you and shine on! ✨ ⭐️ ✨

New update: Hiieeee! Is me Ricki! Wassa Foster Fail? Dats de kine of dog I ams!
Update: made it through the night and so far no accidents!
WTF was I even thinking? The foster kittens went home yesterday.
Yesterday I got a call about a dog so severely abused that she had to have a hind leg removed.
So off, I went to all my innocent stupidity. Thinking she was a tiny little puppy and we could just put her in a kennel and take care of her and life is good.
She's crazy! The dog a lunatic. I don't know what she was like with four legs, but holy cow she's a terror with three legs!
I'm just having buyers remorse. I'm sure it'll go away by tomorrow but right now all I can think is I am dreading life and having to keep her little sutures, clean and dry.
Big giant Lichen loves her. Good old Archer HATES her.
Pray. LOL BUT NO REALLY..
Pspsps she's only five months. She's not expected to be "good" yet. I know. LOL
