A Short History of the Halloween Countdown

Curious about last year competitors? I called them Halloween Cat Countestants :) Have a look here http://daisy.blue/Celebrate/Halloween/archive/2015/ 

The competition was founded in 2015 with a hashtag #HalloweenWithDaisyBlue on Google+ and Instagram and had around 16 cats took part in the first countdown. 

Over the past year I received a lot of positive feedback and many people asked whether it will continue the next year. So, yes! I decided to continue and improve it to become the yearly fun for cats and it's owners.

Wednesday #CaptionThis

A cat may look at a king is an English proverb that means even someone of low status has rights. 

It is found first in print in a famous early collection of English proverbs, The Proverbs And Epigrams Of John Heywood, 1562.

In 1713, Oswald Dykes published English proverbs with moral reflexions. This used various well-known proverbs as a starting point for Dykes' to pronounce his political and social values. In this extract it isn't clear which king he was protecting, as Queen Anne was the British monarch at the time.

It was also used by Lewis Carroll in  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Chapter 8. The Queen's Croquet-Ground"

We are waiting impatiently for the night to come as Mars reaches its closest approach to Earth this evening at 21:35 GMT.

















The red planet will be "just" 47.2 million miles / 75 million kilometres away....

Oh Boris S., stop asking questions have a nap...
