Shadow contacted Captain Cattitude to confirm his ship will not be seen by radar. Captain Cattude confirmed he would not be seen..

Shadow has been distracted by the miniblinds and all the Christmas decorations her owner put up for the holiday season. She especially likes to attack or chew on the blinds and knock over the decorations. She kind of forgot Captain Cattitude was coming to Earth on the 24th. She has been overly excited about Christmas. She wondered what wonderful gifts she would receive from her owner. Will it be new fluffy balls to play catch or will he realize I run the house and stop telling me “NO” every second he has.

When we last saw Shadow, She had gone out to a concert to relieve her stress from the outcome of the Operation Milky Way Security Council. The OMWSC decided that the world leaders would show military force when Captain Cattitude makes contact on October 31st. Unfortunately, he never showed, again. President Trump accused Shadow of falsifying her contact with the Alien. Shadow has since been under scrutiny from the FBI. They have just left her home and have come to the conclusion she is not tech-smart enough to pull off such a hoax and that the Alien contact did occur. When Shadow heard the news she was livid. She called her best friend Phoebe to blow off some steam. “Can you believe their conclusion? I built an interactive satellite with parts found around my home. It made contact with Captain Cattitude. How can they imply I am not smart enough to make it?”, said Shadow. Phoebe said with an understanding of Shadow’s frustration, “What do you expect? Our government is being run by a clown who seems to only know how to make blow-up balloon animals and make a mess.” “I know Phoebe but luckily they didn’t discover Captain Cattitude contacted me last night and he will be here around Christmas for sure. I plan to keep it a secret too,” said Shadow. “Won’t the government pick up his space ship on radar when he enters our universe?” How will you keep it a secret?” said a confused Phoebe. “Hopefully his stealth mode on his ship will keep the government from seeing him enter our universe and his landing,” said Shadow. “Let’s hope,” said Phoebe…

Shadow had a night terror last night that bossy Beverly bullied her. When she awoke, she made plans to take kitten karate classes…

Shadow has been practicing yoga as a way to relax. She has been achieving nirvana on most attempts when she meditates along with her yoga practice…

Shadow is so happy she is emitting blissful vibes. Captain Cattatude underestimated his warp speed drive and he wont be here on Earth until December. Shadow has not informed the government of this new timeframe. She Hope’s to keep the goverment out of the whole first contact event…

Shadow got home and got ready for the concert that she is going to tonight with Phoebe, her BFF. She wanted to cancel their plans as she did not like the outcome of the Security Council OMW. She was deeply disappointed President Trump, and the world leaders believe the world should let the inhabitants of Catmoon know we have a military force to be reckoned with and to watch out if they step on our toes. There is a knock-on Shadow’s front door. Shadow opens the door. At her door, standing like a drag queen is Phoebe in barely-there clothing. Shadow is so happy to see her BFF.

 “Hi, Phoebe. I’m so glad to see you. My heart and mind are in a disarray over the outcome of the OMW meeting. The world leaders insist we show force and not have love toward our Alien visitor. This can’t go well,” said Shadow to Phoebe. “Well, there is nothing we can do about the situation. It is out of our control. We can only hope for the best,” said Phoebe as Shadow excused herself to use the litter box.

Poor Shadow has been running to the litter box all night long. Upon returning from her litter box, Shadow said, “My nerves are shot. I really need to have fun tonight  “Let’s have an iced tea before we go out. I could use it,” said Shadow as she made her way to the kitchen…

The Alien Security Council Code-named Operation Milky Way (OMW) met today.  Select world leaders who were invited to the meeting included Vladimir Putin from Russia, Xi Jinping from China and Angela Merkel from Germany as well as President Trump of the United States and Shadow who was first contacted by Captain Cattitude.    The agenda they discussed was the imminent visit of Captain Cattitude from planet Catmoon. “This is the first time mankind will have contact with an Alien.  We should show caution but be open to communication with the species.  And remember to show brotherly love to our visitor,” said Merkel.  “I believe we should show force so the Alien knows they can’t take advantage of Earth,” said President Trump.  Shadow sat and thought “here we go again.”  She promised she would remain quiet, so she kept her mouth shut. “Mr. Trump is right.  We need to show this new species we have a military force willing to fight for our Planet,” said Putin.  “I agree,” chimed in Jinping.  Shadow had enough. She couldn’t stay quiet.  “We need to show we mean no harm.  He has shown no threatening patterns to us.  His communication we were studying was simply a computer glitch.  There was no code in it just simply the synthetic nature of the computers interrupting the message as they were malfunctioning.   We can study the message all we want, and we won’t find any threatening message in it.  I know.  He told me about the glitch and sent the corrected message to me.  Please, I beg you to reconsider showing force.  It may just trigger force his species taking military actions themselves.  He only found us because of the message, the Arecibo interstellar radio message we sent into space in 1974 carrying information about Earth and humanity.  By doing this went looking for him,” said Shadow.  “Agreed,” said Merkel.  “We need to show his species we are a loving race,” continued Merkel. 

President Trump, Putin, and Jinping all just shook their heads in disgust.  “I think we have a response.  We will have a military presence at his landing site,” said President Trump. “And that’s that.” He said calling the meeting to an end.  “Next meeting we should discuss what kind of military force we want present at the landing site and the Halloween Welcoming Dance Party Shadow already promised to Captain Cattitude.” Shadow left the meeting feeling sad over what occurred.  She hopes we are not making a mistake by showing fear and not love.

“Operation Milky Way is having an emergency session on Saturday to discuss military plans for keeping Earth safe from the Alien Captain Cattitude from Catmoon,” said President Trump to Shadow via encrypted Facetime.  “All world leaders will be present, including China,” continued President Trump.  “We don’t think you need to be there, Shadow,” he said.  With a raised voice Shadow said, “He contacted me not you or the world leaders.  I should be there.  If not, I will attempt to communicate with Captain Cattitude that he not come.” “Shadow, you don’t need to be that rash, get your panties out of a bunch, you can come but I don’t want to hear a word out of you in regards to the military plans.  It’s a done deal,” replied a highly irritated President Trump.  “Alright I’ll come but you can’t stop me from exercising my freedom of speech.  I will say what I feel I need to say in regards to your poor solution to his visit,” said Shadow with a tinge of anger in her voice.  “Fine, come, say what you need to say,” grumbled President trump. The meeting starts at 7 AM. The secret force will pick you up,  Be on time, Shadow,” said Trump as he ended Facetime with Shadow.

“Oh Phoebe, you look great.  I think we can sneak you in now.  President Trump won’t have a clue who you are.  I’m so happy you found the fox mask.  It works,” said an excited Shadow.

“Thank you, I saw it in the CVS store and knew it would work.  It covers up the fact I am a dog. I can’t wait for the Halloween Party!” said an enthusiastic Phoebe.

“Me either,” said Shadow.  “This calls for a celebration.  Would you like a cup of coffee?”  Shadow said. “Yes, that would be lovely” replied Phoebe.

The two girls made their way to the kitchen where Shadow began to use her Keurig to make coffee…

Shadow was depressed that the government was going to show force instead of love when captain Cattitude made his landing on Earth on October 31^st.  She has been mopping around her apartment for three days. She only left the apartment to help Phoebe find her disguise for the Cat-extravaganza Dance Party now called Cat-extravaganza Halloween Party.  Today Phoebe came over to cheer shadow up by showing Shadow her costume/ disguise for the party.
