I am partial to the first Caturday of May, as that is the day mum gotcha'd me 9 years ago. My official Gotcha Day is next week, so I can celly-brate twice!
Attention, the Derby Party starts NOW!
Southern fried chick-hen.
A buffet of wonderful goodies, all your favorites are here. If you don't see what you like, ask the catering staff!
Roast beast is always good.
Traditional drink for Derby Day is a CatMint Julip. So enjoy.
We may be rushing a day or two, but we will have Meow-garita's too.
Milk for the kittens!
Here are the horsies running, pick your favorite and let's see who wins.

Enjoy the day and don't forget to take a rose home with you to remember the day.
We didn't know that your name was related to your gotcha day, Derby! That's really cool. We'll be happy to join your party, and we'll be watching the run for the roses, too.
ReplyDeleteHey old pal, Mom saw about the running horseys on the news and immediately thought of you. We hope you have a wonderful 9th Gotcha Day!!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great buffet. Come on everybody...dig in.
Happy Caterday! And we saw you on the Calendar! Now we know why it's you today! YAY!!!
ReplyDeleteYum, catmint julep is the best! How cool you get to celebrate twice this week!
ReplyDeleteWhoo Hoo! Another great Derby Day!
ReplyDeleteIt is almost a rite of spring now to kick off the season with Derby Day and all the festivities!
The ham is delicious. We will look our your sliding doors until it's time for the kickoff, or faceoff or what ever it is the horsies do.
Looks like a grand party! Will the girls wear big hats?
ReplyDeleteLooking great in the CB Calendar!
Purrs,
The Chans
I saw you on the calendar this morning when mum took Star off. Happy Derby Day to you. Looks like lots of good food. The roast beast looks very tasty.

We saw you on the CB Calendar...Happy Calendar Weekend Derby! And Happy, Happy Gotcha Day and week! Wow, your foods are awesome and that southern friend chick-hen looks divine!
ReplyDeleteHappy Derby Day! And ham? I'll take some!
ReplyDeleteI thought Wildcat Red would win, just because 'cat' was in the name! I think he ended up last, so pfft...I'm not good at betting on racing! Hope you enjoyed the party!
ReplyDeleteDerby, yesterday we found out our Auntie Martha was at the Kentucky Derby in person! She took in all the hoopla, but wore jeans. She's 68 & said all those hats and spiked heals are for the young women to wear...especially when you have to park at least a mile away and walk there. Auntie Marty loves horses. She has some that she takes to horse shows all over the country. But we wouldn't like to meet them...we'd be too askeered.
