YOU LOOK PURRRFECTLY WELL TO ME

Typist, Cookie Artisan, and Nurse. 

BAD POSTCARDS has received some nice praise in its first six months, but I did not expect to be plugged by a cold remedy. That happened last week when Cold-EEZE gave me some nice words on Twitter. I’ve used Cold-EEZE for at least 15 years. It’s amazing!

So…at the first sign of a cold, take Cold-EEZE, and Nurse Kitteh will diagnose you as L-O-WELL.

I IZ ONE POPPYLAR FAYMUS KITTEH

Remember her? She strutted her cookie cuteness in July. She’s also appeared on BAD POSTCARDS as a Typist.

Well…Miss Cookie Cuttin’ made an appearance on I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER? on Friday. (She says, “Goze there and votz for me! Givz me Excellent!”) Congratulations! Extra catnip!

This is one versatile, multi-talented cat. I have seen her model on three different postcards. You’ve seen two of them, and very soon you will see the third. I will post it tomorrow. Stay tuned!

SAFARI JANE at JUNGLE LARRY’S
Jungle Larry’s African Safari, Naples, Florida

She’s got the damned nerve to wear the skin of this beautiful cat’s relative.

Look! Her roots are showing!

Verso:
” ‘Safari Jane’ Tetzlaff with one of the world-famous Tiglons, whose mother was a lioness and father a tiger, at ‘Jungle Larry’s’ African Safari, at Caribbean Gardens in Naples, Florida.”

I’M A COOKIE CUTTIN’ KITTEN!

Remember this cat? She’s You’re Type of Kitten!

A very talented feline. She types and bakes cookies. Will I find more postcards of her other talents?

CAPTION CONTEST ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

In about 4 hours (8:30 PM New York time) I will submit another postcard to this blog with the rules for a CAPTION CONTEST. 

THE PRIZE? An actual, vintage, great, bad postcard! You will have 3 cards to choose from and they have ALL appeared on BAD POSTCARDS. The 3 cards are:

1) ASSASSINATION OF LEE HARVEY OSWALD IN WAX — April 25

2) “PLASTECK’S NEW “CHECK LIST JUNIOR” — April 13

3) “I’M YOUR TYPE OF KITTEN!” — No link. You’re lookin’ at it.

Stay tuned!

Description for this postcard:

DOGS: 6 / PIGS: 2 / DINOSAURS: 3 / and now CATS: 1
(current score of # of bad postcard appearances)

My cats have been pretty annoyed with me that NOT A SINGLE CAT has appeared on BAD POSTCARDS in the 69 days of its existence. I was going to count this one, but they said “No way, baby! You’re not counting that crap!”

So…this post is from one cat enthusiast to many others.

Enjoy! (Remember, you could OWN this card!!!)
