TJs VDayParty2 review
Valentine’s Day meant one thing, and that was it was time for Peyton’s 2nd annual V-day party, better known as #VDayParty2!
The day started with a delicious pancake breakfast! There were so many delicious types of pancakes and different breakfast foods.
After that, it was a special collaboration with Hedgewatch and the HWCafe, with the pawristas serving special Valentine’s Day noms and drinks!
Then it was time for our very own Truman’s world-famous Pub Quiz, with special guest barktender Rebel helping in the pub! As always, they were having so much fun learning music trivia!
Then, finally, the big event of the night, which was the Valentine’s dance! With music from DJs Truman, Mookie, Fuzz and Fiddy, TJ & Bart, Shadow and Jolo, and Candy Liggett!
It was an amazing evening of dancing and having a wonderful time, which proved, once again, that Peyton is the absolute queen of party planning!
Nipclub February 12, 2026: Sekurity Update
Gator made us “Wanted: Cupid” Sekurity avatars for tonight’s pre-Valentine’s Day party!
Gator, Angus, Louis, P and Jeego were all there when I arrived. Angus stayed here long enough to feel tipsy from many martinis.
I brought a giant bouquet of orange roses to share with all the fine ladies and gents at Nipclub and left the bouquet on the bar. Moo is serving fresh scallops with pink peppercorns and a special wine.
I gave Moo a gorgeous bouquet of deep pink and orange roses with green hydrangeas and pincushion proteas, and tulips. I picked the colors to go with her Tortí fur. Moo gave me a big hug!
Angus and I consumed shots plus chocolate cupcakes, which Pearl rapidly served upon her arrival for work. Pearl mentioned her human’s cat, Astro, likes to nibble at heels. Apparently, he’s checking to see how edible the dog and humans might be. Astro is an unusual kitty!
Raven showed up right as I spotted something on one of the motion cameras, so I went outside to investigate. I saw little, but I had my taser ready, set on stun just in case. I heard some rustling, but I think it was a bird. I saw nothing, so I checked around the entire property.
It hasn’t been as busy as it used to be in the past; Nipclub Sekurity is turning into a boring job!
George the duck showed up! He’s usually a rare sight this late at night. I wondered out loud if anyone was playing music, and Angus said he’d play some tunes! With the music, we all had a true late-night fun time, with dancing!
George prepared drinks in pairs, so Pearl is making two drinks for each person, enabling our participation. Sip the left paw drink, sip the right paw drink, rinse and repeat.
This is too much fun!
Now it’s time for cheesecake, more drinks, and to talk about baseball seasons and spring training. LATE NITE tunes, drinks, fun, and we kept the party going until 11:15, Jakku time!
Happy Valentine’s Day to all the anipals!
Until next week!

#FBJam Saturday, February 7, 2026
On Saturday afternoon, our own Truman brought a fan favorite with the return of the #FBJam began! The theme was a celebration of the British Rock invasion!
It was an amazing afternoon of some of the best British music around! There was also British-themed food and drinks like: Toad in the Hole, fish and chips, Kedgeree, jam roly-poly, Scotch whisky, and a Pimm’s cup!
This was my first #FBJam, and I LOVED it!
It’s my honor to announce that Truman plans to bring it back now permanently, with the next one scheduled for Saturday, May 16th! They will announce the theme closer to the date!
Walking in the Cold
Hello! Dis is Bart! We are TJ and Bart, and we are ready with a new article for the Anipal Times!
Dis is TJ! We take our duties as writers seriously. And we have a vewy important topic today. Walking in da cold.
Bart: Dat’s wight, TJ. Now we live in Florida, so it does not get too cold here too often. But sometimes it does.
TJ: Dis also for our pals who really have to go through da cold so much during the winter. Dey have real winters. Dis is an important topic!
Bart: Dis is also weally for our humans. Because dey walk us, after all.
TJ: And they don’t walk us any differently than! Man, it is cold outside! Why do they go so slowly?
Bart: Dis is so twue! You know we are low to the gwound! Our pwivate parts are touching the gwass!
TJ: Sowwy if that is too stwong for da readers out there, but dis is an important issue for us doggos! Humans, get da lead out!
Bart: You don’t want to be out dere, wight? Well, we don’t want to be out dere either!
TJ: And yoooose humans are supposed to be da smart ones. If we go inside, then we will all get warm! What is so hard about dat?
Bart: But we also have to have patience with our humans.
TJ: It’s difficult sometimes, though, Bart. Cats have it so good! They can go in da stinky box inside!
Bart: And then da humans clean it. Cats are lucky!
TJ: In da meantime, humans, understand! Faster walks, and less time outside when it is cold!
Bart: Dat’s wight!
TJ: Dis concludes our article. We hope dis helps!
Barnaby the Beagle
Barnaby the beagle wasn’t a fan of freezing weather. The world outside the kitchen window had traded its cheerful autumn colors for white and grey. He was a hound of the field, chasing scents across sunny meadows, not shivering his paws off in the icy air.
This morning, the frosty glass looked cold. Barnaby sighed, a huff that ruffled the fleece throw he was lying on. Barnaby needed to go outside and was gently but firmly guided into his little blue coat with a hood he hated. His human pulled on his leash for him to come along. This morning, the frosty glass looked cold.
Outside, the snow was deeper than his legs were long. He plunged his nose into it, expecting the familiar scent of rabbits. It smelled only of clean, sharp ice.
Then, an unfamiliar scent drifted on the wind. Faint but distinct. It cut through the cold with a warm, sugary hint of something delicious. Barnaby’s ears perked up with the usual droop replaced with focused attention. He followed the trail, his little legs working hard, nose to the ground.
He led his human on a winding path to the edge of the local park, right up to a snow-covered picnic table. There, half-buried in the snow, was a bright red mitten. Tucked inside the mitten was a small, foil-wrapped chocolate bar, likely forgotten by a visitor.
Barnaby nudged the find with his nose, let out a satisfied “A-roo,” then looked up at his human with shining eyes. Freezing weather, he decided, might have its charms after all. Especially if it involved hidden treasure.
OTLFP January 2026 Wrap-Up
Ooh, what a hug! Fun-filled adventurers, and oh, they sure are fashionistas! What a closet of outfits! It was a lot of fun hearing about postbox spotting and tweet-up meetups.
The last show of January featured Jimmy, Dodger, and Whisky. What a fun, mischievous bunch! It was great hearing about their fun and games, and the last muddy puddles and shenanigans! Every day, they endeavor to bring smiles to their family’s faces and delight in entertaining their humans.
In the adoption segment, we also featured lots of pets in rescue needing homes, and expressed the hope that the featured pets would find their forever homes soon.
Good luck to Beckett of Voice Rescue Texas USA, Kane from Pendle Dogs in Lancashire UK, Biggie from Leicester Animal Aid in Leicester UK, and Buddy from Rescue Coop in South Carolina USA.
Also, good luck to all the other pets in their rescue centres who are waiting patiently for someone to give them a second chance at a forever home.
We have a fun-filled diary of guests planned for February and beyond, so we look forward to seeing you all for the shows next month.
Happy New Year, everyone!
Love and hugs, Millie, Pixie, and the #OTLFP team

Nipclub January 29th, 2026, Sekurity Update by Slinky, @Slinky_the_Cat, Sekurity Agent, Late Nite shift
It’s still winter in some areas of the United States, so we had a Nighttime Candlelight Winter Hike night!
I’m wearing a snowsuit to keep warm during patrols outside. There was snow everywhere and lovely lanterns on the trail to light the way. The snow sparkled in the candlelight. Delicious, comforting dishes such as chili accompanied by cornbread, plus warm beverages, were available for everyone.
Gator (@realfakegator) is stuck inside a snow globe; he thought he would just roll along the trails. I pointed out there might be rocks or even a waterfall somewhere…. Oops! He stated he would be fine, provided the falls weren’t comparable to Niagara. The glass is tempered safety glass, so he’s perfectly safe.
Our Nipclub blog charity link isn’t on the blog in its usual spot, so I asked Gator about it, and I mentioned it didn’t work last week. Technical difficulties with our charity lately! So, I’m sharing the Toronto cat rescue website; hopefully, we’ll get some donations.
I went out onto the trail to try out my new security drone! A little way down the trail, the drone caught Raven’s Molly cat tinkling outside! My demeanor suggested no major issue, though I did sternly note the existence of discreet cat facilities in the bar and casita.
Pearl (@TinyPearlCat) is here, but she has been having computer issues, but she’s still serving food and drinks.
Initially, my drone observed a shadow, but since it was an illusion, I am now employing thermal imaging.
No sekurity issues other than Molly peeing next to a tree. Just fun in the snow, great food, hot toddies, and candlelight!
Breeze (@KittehBoi) or as I affectionately call him, K-Boi (@Kittehdaboi) is playing R&B mellow soul meow music to soothe the cold away. We are having fun conversing about cats snuggling on the sofa with their humans, while Pearl serves miniature toasted marshmallow cheesecakes and hot rum toddies with lemon. Perfect desserts for a lovely winter night in the snow!
No spammers or security issues to report; just good, cold fun!
Until next week!

Nipclub, January 22, 2026: Sekurity Update
Thursday, 1-22-26. Nipclub.
Our theme was Burns Night to celebrate the Scottish poet Robert Burns. The Sekurity crew is wearing kilts for this special Nipclub party.
Burns Night is a holiday celebrated in Scotland on January 25th. Read more about it https://www.scotland.org/events/burns-night
There was haggis, of course, but few of us were very interested, and for good reason! However, there was fish and chips, plus kedgeree with wild salmon! And scotch whisky! So delicious!
Pearl (@TinyPearlCat) and P & Jeego (@SeattleP) think this is a party about burning things, so the flames are high and the flaming cat GIFs are everywhere! Pearl even made flaming shots of whisky!
Our weekly charity GoFundMe link for Toronto Cat Rescue wasn’t working, so it was difficult to perform serious sekurity checks without the charity link! Sharing the link always attracts spammers (aka sekurity risks). That is why we have security at Nipclub every week.
Even Harvey Button (@HarveyButtonNZ) noticed it wasn’t working. It might have been a broken link, but unfortunately, our blog master wasn’t around to fix it during the party.
Pearl suggested just sending their website as a link- great idea!
Harvey Botton lost a beautiful fursib, Sienna the cat, that morning. Because the event was sad, many people sent Harvey Botton condolences and soft paw hugs.
There was some talk about the upcoming Seahawks championship game on Sunday, going to sports bars to watch, and the gem show coming up in Jakku next week.
Overall, it was a fun night with lively conversation as usual!
Please join #Nipclub every Thursday night for a new, themed anipal party!
Until next week,
Slinky

Thursday, 1-15-26 Nipclub
Nipclub has a snow globe theme this week! We’re celebrating the glorious snow. I was a little late because humans just got a new rescue kitty less than an hour before my shift!
It’s a grand party, with fluffy, dry snow outside. Today, Sekurity agents are wearing amazing snow globe costumes a la Gator (@RealFakeGator), and there are lots of great cocktails and warming noms. So far, I have seen nothing on my first perimeter check of the night. All good! It’s awfully snowy out there, so it’s easy to see everyone’s tracks. Nipclub anipals are having fun, rolling in the snow.
There are lots of questions about the new kitty, but she doesn’t have a name yet. Individuals involved in Trap-Neuter-Return rescued her from a townhome complex, yet she wasn’t homeless; perhaps she was abandoned.
Pearl (@TinyPearlCat) was making exquisite snow globe cookies with clear sugar domes and serving up shots of icy cold snow globe gin. The gin has a super cool round bottle and has a unique flavor.
I keep checking the sekurity cameras and nothing so far. It’s quiet again. Pearl is serving snow globe hard cider while I go outside to check for snow zombies. I thought I saw fresh tracks in the snow through the window! Outside, it was cold, crisp, and clear. I checked out the tracks and followed them out to the casita, and they faded into the trees. Very suspicious.
Upon returning indoors, I observed activity on the camera, proceeded outside, and then pursued the security risk near the tennis courts! Good thing we have motion cameras.
Back to the bar and time for a warm drink. Angus (@Angus_The_Bold) showed up, and he was delightful to chat with. His mommy comes from SoCal, and I’m from NorCal, so we chatted a bit about California. It’s dessert time: chocolate cheesecake, extremely rich and chocolaty.
Finally, I got a decent photo of the new cat and shared it with the Nipclub crew. The humans are thinking of naming her Bettie Page, after the pinup. We talked about the weather as usual, and I’m distracted by the new cat. She’s super cute. Right about the time Pearl was heading out, I bid my farewells and went outside, and my spaceship beamed me up, hovering over the bar.
Until next week!
