In the Nip of Time: A Publishing Caper
HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!
Harrummppff…is seems I ought to be able to do more than just pace the floor in my steampunk workshop, don’t you think?
My pal Nissy has his rescue story published in the new book Rescued: The Stories of 12 Cats, Through Their Eyes and all the copies sold in April, 2015 will have a portion of the price donated to one of Nissy’s favorite cat rescues…Anjellicle Cat Rescue in New York City.
There just has to be a way I can help him make his April copies be so special and intriguing that no one, whether cats, dogs, or humans, can pass up buying a kabillion copies.
Maybe if I stop pacing and sit in front of my invention chemicals I will get a great big old brainstorm! Oh my cat! *slaps paw to forehead* how could I have forgotten? I’ll put on my Big Furry Bright Idea helmet! It never fails to get my lightning fast mind moving at blistering speed.
I knew if I could only stop and think I would have a brilliant idea!! Yes, get Rescued published during the month of April on paper made from CATNIP!!!
*clapping paws together*
Nissy is gonna totally luvluvluv this idea. First though, I had best make sure I can create paper made from catnip and then I need to devise a proper manufacturing machine to make the paper.
Alrighty then, let’s crank this baby up and see what it can do. Hope it can at least produce paper.
Now let me see…*clink, tink*…there. That should do it. I needed to adjust the production equipment to take thicker paper. I know the Necata Paparus will be thicker ‘cuz of the teeny chunks of catnip in it.
*whirr, bzzzzz, zap!*
Whoa, look at that paper come flyin’ out of that machine. Now I simply MUST get Silver a message. Let’s see, where did I put that toaster message sender??? Oh, here it is. I am gonna need Silver’s skills at computers and whatnot and he needs to broach the subject with Nissy.
I don’t have time to explain all this to Nissy because he just gets too excited anytime, anywhere the ‘nip’ is mentioned. I need to spend my time producing more sheets of this Necata Paparus.
*ting*
Message From Silver: A-OK. I am on it!!
Hey! That was fast. Silver must have been sitting on his toaster keeping his butt warm or something.
Great Silver, I am purring like crazy you like my idea to sell more copies of Rescued in April for Nissy and Anjellicle Cats Rescue. Pawsome!
*mumbles to herself* I sure do hope Silver can keep Nissy calm enough to explain the whole idea before Nissy starts his droolin’ just thinking about nip. What a Nip Head he is…sigh.
Ok my sweet little machine and Necata Paparus…let’s get ready to make history with Nerissa’s April run of Rescued!
Be sure to visit my pal SILVER, Dash Kitten, for Tuesday’s installment and the conclusion will air on our buddy Nerrisa’s blog Wednesday!!

We’re wondering if some nipheads won’t get so excited over nip paper they’ll shred it before the papers can be read? Just a thought.
Catnip paper seems like a wonderful idea. ~Scylla

Heh heh. Paper made of catnip. You know everybuddy is always dumping on NYC for euthanizing pets. Do you know New York City has the lowest euthanasia per capita for any major U.S. city? There’s still too many but the Mayor’s Alliance is trying.

Paper with nip in it, my Sanctuary will be a mad house. I was gonna read the book to the cats here, maybe they will want to read it themselves this way. Group stuff is so much fun though. I am liking your idea of production though and I am sure the cats will too.
Oh yes, the cats will ALL wanna read THIS APRIL EDITION for sure. Don’t forget to visit my buddies Nerissa’ Life and Silver at Dash Kitten to get two more raffle entries.
I can just see it…. cats reading the book everywhere. They’ll whip (or should we say drip) through the book in no time… Talk about devouring a book cover to cover. Nip paper it is! Woohoo!
thank you sooooo much for visiting me today. You are new to me. I just hopped over to your blog. We will enter you in our rafffle for sure. Don’t forget to visit my buddies Nerissa’ Life and Silver at Dash Kitten to get two more raffle entries.
Savvy, you invented…
Invented from…
From NIP???
Oh my mouses! That’s BRILLIANT, that is. You are such an amazin’ cat.
Purrs,
Nissy (Also known as the resident nip head. MOUSES!)
this is really good Nissy, you and me and Silver did a great job for Anjellicle Cat Rescue
Oh my goodness, such fun!!! I will pass on the giveaway though since I already have that wonderful book!
Glad you let me know otherwise you would have to fight off the cats just to read a copy of ours produced in April only on the secret Necata Paparus
Will the paper be dribble proof too? We’ll need extra strong dribbleproofiness here!
The REAL Maple Syrup Mob xxxxx
hmmmm…I may have overlooked that teeny little item…BTW I can’t find your blog anymore? where are you? I miss you
Savvy leave it to you to come up with nip paper! Sounds delicious and very practical at the same time! BRAVO…… this adventure is exciting – can’t wait to hear more…..in the meantime, we’d love to be in the drawing for a copy of RESCUED!
Hugs, Sammy
Well I bet I could get you to buy a bunch if I made it from bacon Sammy MOL
Yes savvy, nip paper is a brilliant odea. Hmmm, maybe you had better check the pages of the books to make sure they are not already nip paper. My copy of the book sure smelled like nip!
It did??!! Well, it most certainly was not the strain of nip I used for the April run printed as MY NIP NEVER LOOSES IT FRAGRANCE!
that’s THE idea!!! and if the nip paper is nipped, you buy a new book and the fun starts again… BRAVO, APAWS!
yes, that’s the idea; people just keep buying the book especially in APRIL! For ANjellicle Cats Rescue
OMC Savvy you have the bestest ideas..now if you could develop also nip scented crepe paper…WHOA blows my mind..MOL..yes I am Cleo and I have a nip problem…:) but a great looking bookie and I am sure this nip angle is just the cherry on top ….MOL..paw pats Cleo xxx
Thank you Cleo *takes bow* I do try hard to keep cats everywhere pleased
And so well too Savvy 🙂 🙂 xxx
That is SUCH a pawsomely BRILLIANT idea, Savvy! You should patent it.
I have already submitted to the USA Federal Patent Offices; thank you for suggesting it. FOr that I will be sure to send you one ream free!
MOL …OMC..can I borrow that helmet of you, Savvy, I have to try this at home 😀 Now where’s that toaster…MOL… 😀
Pawkisses 🙂 ❤
careful with toaster messages Binky; you can get a butt burn waiting for replies
How come nobody thought of doing nip paper before?! What a brilliant idea!
I just knew you would approve Summer
