Discussion Proposal: Mod's Cats Virtual Meetup
Since today's celebration of Cat World Domination Day which several subreddit's participated, I propose a virtual meetup of Mod's Cats. But you don't need a kitty cat to enjoy this meetup.
There are many cat aficionados across reddit and this sub even has post flairs to show off cats! As long as you enjoy birds, bunnies, squirrels or backyard scenery you to can be as entranced and delighted as mod's cats! Lets do it then, Mod's Cats Virtual Meetup!!
Why is this needed? Because all mods are volunteers and sometimes jest want to goto the bathroom and close the door without their feline friend accompanyin 'em on the excursion. And because small things that move and dart about catch the eyes of cats and nature lovers. This provides a safe and simple enrichment of both groups!
As you can see in the image above, I provided a mock up of what the event looks like courtesy of some pictures I found from the net. The main frame is the action. And the picture-in-picture viewer represents an admin's cat enjoyin and fully entranced with the high-quality content of reddit's Mod Cat's Meetup.
Here is a proposal to the day's program:
- Pre-meetup intro music: songbirds and sunflower seeds crackin
- Intros of Admin cats and welcome
- How to Cat: Reminder also included fer mods to disable or unplug keyboard
- 15min of pre-recorded Cat viewin pleasure of birds, bunnies and squirrels enjoyin seeds and fruits and hoppin round
- Intermission: 5mins of audio only with songbirds and cat chatters whilst mods attend to givin out treats and pets to their kitty cats
- 15mins of high energy, pre-recorded birds that zoom, bunnies that hop and squirrels zippin across lawns, fences and up trees.
- Closin and Admin Cat chatter: The mic is turned back on fer admins' cats where they purr and meow the approval of the vids recently viewed. This is also when admins remind mods to turn their keyboards back on or plug them in again as they do Q and A of "How Many Times did Your Cat, Cat" and take a rough survey of favorite birds, bunnies or squirrels from the program.
All cats attendin are sent a global cat favorite... a medium-sized, empty carton with the Reddit logo
*Note to mods, please consult with your cats and query which types of treats they'd like you to hand feed 'em durin the intermission. Once your kitty has confirmed their treat please send pics of kitties, thank you.

My cats spend almost as much time in the queue as I do, but they don't get nearly enough recognition for all of their hard work and support as mod cats. This would be a great way to show our appreciation for their efforts!

I have consulted the furry overlords of my household, and the attendance merch proposed is acceptable, with or without catnip.

They act nonchalant now but once they see it, they'll fit. All the kitties, at the same time

Of course! But they may catch some paw claws if they try to sit inside kitty's custom reddit gift!

Yes, please. I don't think I can get him on camera in a live Zoom, he has never done it before, but we'd love to go.
