Who Was Guiness the Cat? by Huckleberry the Cat, Kitty Blogger

Guiness the Cat
April 3, 2017 3:38pm CST
You may have noticed that my friends and I sometimes make frequent mention of Guiness the Cat, and some of you may not have been familiar with him. Guiness was Guiness the Cat before I was Huckleberry the Cat. My mama belonged to Guiness when she first started writing on the internet, and sometimes she wrote about him. Then, one day while she was writing on Bubblews, she decided that since it was her birthday, Guiness should take over her writing duties for the day as a birthday present. So he did. And he liked it. And so did a bunch of other cats, the occasional dog, and some humans, too. Guiness did quite well on Bubblews and then got his own blog. (I’m still waiting on my own blog.) But, alas, Bubblews is no more, and neither is Guiness. Even though we never got to meet, Guiness is my big brother and I am his biggest fan. My mama says she is sure I would have liked him a lot and that I would have annoyed him greatly. Guiness the Cat and his friends helped pave the way for blogging kitties like me. Some of the Bubblews kitties started the Professional Cat Bloggers Association, and Guiness was president of it until he passed away. I’m proud to be following in his paw prints.

Dearest Huckie Buckie - it's Auntie Mildred the Cat. Sorry it took me so long to comment, but my mom's been a bit under the weather. If she's under the weather, I'm under the weather, as my needs aren't being met. Guiness was grand and handsome and brilliant and I must admit to having a serious crush on him. I think the feeling was mutual. We did have a grand time on Bubblews back in the days when Bubblews was nice to its writers. My mom said Bubblews eventually stabbed its loyal writers in the back before it finally closed down. I've never see any stab wounds on my mom's back but I'll take her word for it. Hopefuly, we can get something good going again here on myLot and you, dear Huckie, will be a part of it. You've got big shoes to fill but I know you can do it. Luv, Auntie Mildred.

It is a great shame you didn't get to meet Guinness.

Dear Huck, You will do well to follow in his pawprints. He was a superlative president of the PCBA and he threw a mean Squirrel b q. - Morpheus

Dear Morpheus, When I go back and read some of the Bubblews Kitty Chronicles, it almost makes me jealous of what a good time all of you kitties had. You had a good thing going on there for awhile. Of course, I guess the cat food wasn't a bad deal either. Love, Hucklebear the Heir

@bwjsdems Dear Morpheus, That is only proper. The PCBA deserved only the best. Love, Huckleberry

@OldRoadsOnceTraveled dear Huck, It was strenuous work earning my own catfood. I made sure my secretary only bought tuna with MY money - Morph
