Released by Warner Brothers in 1938,Katnip Kollege was about a hip school that taught the kitties how to swing!  Poor Johnny was still a decade  behind in the 1920's,only being able to sing vo-dee-do and so on. To impress Kitty Bright, he finally learns he has swingin' in  his soul! My fan art ~from sketch~ To finished painting~ To video featuring a song from the film~

In theory things will probably get better, yet- The glass is falling, hour by hour, The glass will fall forever. But if you break the bloody glass You won't hold up the weather.* The glass has fallen all my life, I know it falls forever But if you cannot rake it in, it's useless being clever. Born with razor claws, or a wicked tusk? You're still outgunned by Elon Musk!   *Poem quote from Bagpipe Music , Louis MacNeice.  1938.  

 Just wonderful.

The incredible artist and all around good sport FlapperFoxy is now a co-owner of this blog, with all entitlements and privileges thereof.  That means if me and Andy get rich she will as well.  She kept posting through a one year slump where nobody checked in on us, still trying to figure out what happened.  I'm going to nail her name to the masthead when I re-learn to navigate Blogger, damme if I don't. A belated huzzah for this most talented of Furry illustrators and congrats to Foxy for her coming vast fortune. You've always been aboard, kiddo, I just forgot to say 'Welcome'!   https://www.deviantart.com/flapperfoxy

If I had my druthers, I never would have gone. So I'm going home to Austin and I'm gonna tie one on! Now living here beside the bay is pretty awful strange. These rich folk make me feel real poor, in the streets the deer do range. Half the view is water, the other half is sand What radio stations I can get are best described as 'bland'. Everyone in Austin carries a guitar. From the bearded bum in traffic, to the guy behind the bar. Everyone in Austin can always find good weed, Why, the kids outside of any school will get you all you need. So I'm headed back to Austin, I most devoutly wish. Here the guys just stare at me 'cause I don't like to fish. Oh dear old Travis County, I never thought I'd say, That Colorado River would look so good today. Yep, ...
