A Day Without Cats On The Internet

Urlesque is proposing that on 9-9-2009 we all take a break from posting about cats on the internet. Instead they suggest that you blog about many of the other wonderful non-cat animals out there. I’m just as guilty as anyone else when it comes to gratuitous cat blogging, so we shall join them in solidarity.

Urlesque is organizing a web-wide ban on cat-related coverage on 9.9.09 — A Day Without Cats on the Internet. Why only one day? Well let’s be honest, that’s probably only as long as we’ll last before a hilarious video comes crashing into our inbox. But for one day, we will abstain… for you… for the cats.

Here is the press conference with Urlesque’s Stephen Lenz and Kelly Reeves.

Its one thing to induce labor to have your kid at 9:09 on 9/9/09 or to rush to the alter with that luke warm partner to get hitched on a wish and a prayer (and a ton of luck- duh). But a day without CATS— that’s ridiculous. http://www.newsy.com/videos/9_9_09_the_day_that_was
