#WLF Founding Tweet

4 years ago #wlf was founded – call for #catference4?

Four years ago, on 23 May 2010, the #wlf was founded as a socialist feline faction. We thank those brave few who were our founders. Respect to all #wlf comrades. It is a useful time to remind ourselves of our founding principles: the #wlf is and continues to be a an international collective of socialist cats and sympathetic members of other species (including the odd human and at least one tortoise).

Our principles are embodied in the #wlf code.

We have had occasional #catferences when we can share good #wlf practice and come together under a shared set of ideals. Perhaps it’s time for #catference4?

This year, 2014, the 23rd May falls on a Friday. Perhaps a comrade might propose a 24 hour #catference to celebrate #wlffoundersday from 6pm BST on 23 May to 6pm BST 24 May (see worldwide times here)?

#wlf mentioned on BBC6Music by @cerysmatthews

Thanks to @rowleywaycat’s #companionhuman Cerys played El Pussy Cat by Mongo Santamaria on her show this morning. You can listen again on iPlayer in the UK until the same time next week.

In the meantime:

Cerys has been nominated for an honorary #wlf beret for this fantastic service to the cause.

Help us plan a #wlfstaffmeetup #wlf

From @Jazzmancat:

Maybe some comrades remember our last #catference when I introduced the idea of persuading our staff to meet in real life. My german pals and me organized a very successful staff meet up on Pentecost last year and so we decided to repeat it. If you speak german you can read about our efforts here, (sorry, too lazy to translate but I’m pretty sure it’ll lots of fun again).

What is successful in Germany might work somewhere else as well, so why shouldn’t one export this great idea to the UK? It won’t be possible without your participation, but with our collective #wlf swarm intelligence I’m sure we’ll meet this challenge with ease.

At first we need to know who’s interested in a #wlfstaffmeetup, if you are leave a comment below or send a DM to me (@JazzmanCat). Next we’ll have to pick a date and an appropriate location. To agree on a date is a minor problem for us comrades, the hardest
part is to find a location that suits as many participants as possible. Some of you might have noticed that I don’t live in the UK though I’m a ‘Devon’ Rex, but that’s exactly why I need your help. My dadstaff has never visited the UK before and I haven’t a clue where it’s best to meet but I’m
purrretty sure we can organize the largest #wlfstaffmeetup to happen in the UK so far.

Salutes, @JazzmanCat
