Monty Q. Kat arrives

2007-03-31T11:20:00.000-07:00

Monty Q. Kat makes his way onto the famous Red Carpet, looking flashy and fabulous in a dark suit and playful scarf. Made of fluffy cashmere and fringed in pink, (an tip to Skeezix and Daisy, perhaps?), it's more than just a fashion accesory, it's something to play with during breaks in the show!

Bitey, Lucy and Stevie arrive at the red carpet

2007-03-30T11:21:00.000-07:00

Here's Bitey with his new woman. She finally got smart and dumped her husband. He was a bad influence on her fashion sense, so now she's back to looking as great as she did years ago. And it's all Bitey's influence. Normally dressed in a tuxedo, Bitey looks right at home in this YSL old-school tux.

Heard the rumors that Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are the newest Hollywood item? They're WRONG! Reese has been secretly dating One-Eyed Stevie and they're taking their relationship public on the red carpet for the Acatemy Awards!

The crowd gasped when this couple arrived on the red carpet. While he should be at home with wife Melania and baby Baron, The Donald is out on the town with Lucy the Cat! We're not sure how serious this relationship might be, but our body language expert notices how they're leaning close to each other, "clearly more than just friends" says Dr. Feline Form.

Mr Zenith arrived late, came screeching up onto the red carpet -- stylin in his simple lean long tux, white tie and highlighted with his zoot-scoot shoes...
Naturally, in his ever INTENSE form, he had to strike an unorthodox pose for the camera crews.

Abby caught the attention of the world on Oscar Night, receiving more attention for her stunning red-carpet appearance than she did for the Oscar win. She wore a beautiful Gucci bias-cut champagne silk dress that sparkled with silver paillettes, plus Chopard diamond pieces valued at $118,000. Purfection.

I would like to dedicate my entry to my VET, Dr. Ian. This time last year I was limping and could barely walk. After x-rays Dr. Ian noticed my bone was fuzzy and moth eaten. I had a bone biopsy taken on my right hind femur and the VETs discovered 3 different bacterial infections that were attacking my bone and making it weak. Two months of antibiotics cured me and look at me now! Dr. Ian fixed me so I can show off my true talents! Thank you Dr. Ian!!!!
