Happy Halloween!

From all of us kittens and beans at the Castle!!! Hope efurryone stays safe this Halloween especially our black kitteh friends. Mombean wanted to share with efurryone the origins of Halloween. Ok Mombean - all yours!

Thanks Alexi, To all our furriends around the world, I thought everyone might enjoy a bit of background on Halloween. The evening of October 31st (today) is known as Halloween in many English speaking countries. The word "Halloween" is an Old Anglo-Saxon contraction of "All Hallows Eve". This old designation recognizes that the next two days, Nov. 1 and 2 are holy days in the Christian church. Nov. 1 is All Saints Day and Nov. 2 is All Souls Day -also known as Commemoration of the Faithful Departed. For more information about Halloween and All Saints Day and All Soul's day see this wonderful blog, www.anglicansunited.com/

Hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween, All Saints and All Souls !

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Hi! I am a Krasota kitten ! I was asked to tell you our Halloweenie message.
I hope effury kitty gets LOTS of treats and NO tricks.

Alexi says: Sigh ! Kittens just don't get "it" do they ??? We are Episco-cats at the Castle. Our beans will celebrate All Saints Sunday this Sunday Nov 2 at the steeple place. All Saints Day is a day to remember those who have departed this life to go to the Rainbow Bridge. So a very appropriate time to remember those have gone to the Bridge during the past year. Our beans still miss Evita!! She was their first Russian cat. She was such a grouch but she was lovable.

Did you realize that Halloween originated as a vigil the evening before All Saints Day? Hence, "All Hallows eve" became "Halloween". For more information about Halloween, check out Wikipedia.
