Trader Vic's Tiki Luau pawty September 10, 2026

Not only can we not believe it's been 10½ years since we flew to Hawaii for our 1st ever luau, we can't believe we haven't revisited since Sept 2, 2021! Well, this week we fix that by going back for another luau but this time with a Tiki spin to it. Sure, Polynesian but think Trader Vic's Polynesian!

Food!

Music!

Drinks!

Fun!

North Pole Summer Cool-off Trip September 3, 2026

Please drop any $ you can into the Tip Jar to help pets at Black Cat Rescue Every penny helps! Thanks!

On September 7, 1909 the New York Times published a headline announcing Robert Peary had reached the North Pole in April 1909. (note...Peary's Assistant Matthew Hensen arrived at "the spot" 45 minutes earlier than Peary!)

A week earlier, the New York Herald had reported that Frederick Cook claimed to have reached the North Pole in April 1908, a year earlier.

Modern historians think both claims of reaching the actual north pole are doubtful. Does it matter to us? No, but we think that after the hot summer many of us have had and are still having, going someplace a bit cooler sounds like a great idea!

Join #Nipclub Manager @thenascarkitty and @DCkitty as we sail above the arctic circle on the "Cold Duck", the ship that took us to Antarctica for #CatmasEve in 2019.

From there we'll transfer to snowmobiles, or if you want more adventure, go old school and use dogsleds! our expedition staff will lead the way.

When you've had enough cooling off, come hang out at the Ice Bar for some warm drinks, food and music

World Lake Day and remembering @Petiethecat & Momma Louise

#Nipclub Celebrates World Lake Day August 27, 2026 by remembering 2 special friends

World Lake Day was established by the United nations in 2025 in order to raise awareness about the ecological, economic and cultural value of lakes and to promote action to protect, restore and manage them.

We're going to make it a little more personal by remembering a magical summer where the anipal community came together to help a friend. You might not have been here for it, but the OG's remember The Summer At the Lake with Petie fondly.

After being diagnosed with kidney disease in 2010, pals started #pawcircles for Petie. As time went on, pals began to meet on #petiesporch and eventually at the family Lake Cottage where they would keep him company and help lift his spirits. Pals came often and stayed longer and bringing sleeping bags or tents. Soon, it turned into a weekend get-together. Pals arrived by @FreshOtis' bus, or Duchess' teleporter, by Jet or even by magic carpet! We camped, and swam (those who didn't swim were treated to rides on the back of a large lab named @DuchessCrabtree). We water-skied and canoed and played. We had bonfires and roasted marshmallows or ate from @GeorgeTheDuck's NomMobile. Above all, we found that helping him helped us feel better too.
