17th Anniversary of the monthly Catgirl Critics’ Media Mewsings: The Mew, nyan!


The tourism is purrone to escalate here as visitors from the nippier regions purrtake of our purrpetual bikini weather in the uppurr 70’s, under the lush arbors and the puffy Cumulo-Neko clouds in the Blue sky over our NC OBX island and the surrounding waters of Mew Hanover County, nyan!

If you purrfur the much hotter tempurratures, we recommend the soothing soak in our hot spurrings, which have the purrticularly rejuvenative purropurrties, nyan! Fortunately we are blessed with the benevolent magick in the air, land and water that aids in the purropurrgation of the endangered species, whilst warding away the storms, pathogens, pollutions, bigotries, and invasive organisms, nya!

March is the purrticularly festive month with Pi Day, The Tides of March, Peachy Day, Saint Patrick’s Day, the Vernal Equinox, Women’s Day, Transgender Day of Visibility, World Religions Day, Holi, Purrim, Hola Mopholla, Ostara, Naw Ruz, Ramadan, the start of Daylight Savings Time, the NCAA March Madness, and the zodiac signs of Pisces followed by Aries, nyan!

Speaking of the fish signs, the local fishing forecast purrdicts the bumpurr crop of the delicious, nutritious Snappurrs, Groupurrs, Speckled Trout, Sea Bass, Blue Fish, and Bluefin Tuna, nya!
