I am very worried about you all. Thanks for keeping us updated!
Please stay safe!

We hope it doesn't get too bad for you. It looks scary...please be safe!
Hugs & Purrs,
Sammy, Festus & Emma
ohmygosh. It looks nasty. Please stay safe!
Those are some very big clouds. Stay safe.
Have been following the news on this all day -- sounds like you are not evacuating; but I hope you're at least "up high"... yet not "up too high". Being kind of an old-hand at hurricanes, have to say this one looks like it could rival 1900! Lord, I pray all of you will be safe... and Marilyn as well (she's even southeast of you, right...).
KC and Missy and everycat,
Please be safe!
Our MIG's aunt/uncle live in Pasadena and they are choosing to ride out the storm at home with their 2 woofies.
We thinks they named this storm after our Little Monkey-Isaac but they all call him Ike.
Oooh, please keep posting pictures and news. We want to know how you're doing every minute. (Tell those sea birds that they can hang out at your house during the storm.)
I am worried about all of our fur friends and beans in Ike's path. Thanks for keeping us up-to-date.
Them birdies are smart to fly away! Please stay safe yall!!! And Mommy sez to call her tomorry or else! (Else whut? She'll send a hurrycane? hehe Silly mommies.)
Purrrrrrrrs,
Sanjee
Please be safe!!! Thanks for sharing!! Purrrrs, purrrrr, purrrrrs!
Your FL furiends,
Be safe! All of you in the path of Ike.
We are purring for you. Even here on the MS Gulf Coast we can feel the wind from IKE, so we are very concerned about our friends in IKE's path.
Purring for your safety, ~S, S & C
This is furry skeery. You guys stay safe, ok? Maw keeps watching the TV folks doing the reporting. She says it's skeery!
Luf, Us

Please stay safe. We're watching the Houston Local News (Direct TV is carrying it for us here in Atlanta and probably everywhere else that there is Direct TV too) and we were thinking of you guys and logged on just to say Stay Safe!!
We hopes Ike does take a hike! We dont likes when askery stuff happens to our blogosphere furry friends!!!
We is chantin wif yoo, Take a hike Ike! Take a hike Ike! Take a hike Ike! Take a hike Ike! .........
we are praying that you are all safe. We will be watching CNN and the weather channel all night.
We love you all!
Keeping my paws crossed that you will all be safe!
We're flipping back and forth between CNN and the weather channel - we're furry worried about you guys. Please be safe!
We have given you all an award.
Be safe furry fambly!
Stay safe! Didn't they make you evacuate? Or are you far enough away from the storm surge area?
Lots of purrs that you will be safe.
We are purring and purring for your safety!
I saw that sunset. Wasn't it beautiful? Ironically beautiful!
We're all hanging in here, and once our mom decides to hit the hay (we've heard the expression, but not sure where it comes from!), we'll all hunker down someplace not near windows.
Stay safe, all of you in the Sherwood house, and we'll try to do the same.
Grace & Company
We's chantin wif ya.
Take a Hike Ike! Take a Hike Ike!
ooo careful. Ike is nasty, just like with Tina. Our friend had to evacuate from his house outside of Houston.
Take a hike Ike! Take a hike Ike! We are purrring for you!!! It was a beautiful sunset!!
Your FL furiends,
Fortunately, we are in a new area that doesn't flood and we weren't asked to evacuate.
The winds are about 56 mph now and making an eerie howling outside the window. No rain yet.
We lost our cable boxes, one was on and one was off, neither work now.
Wish it wasn't night, I'd take more photos.
Thank you so much for all the purrs and support.
Please be safe!!!!!!!!!!!!!
((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))

we are all purring for you guys. Mom and Dad have been in a few huricanes before. They are scary...
KC Noos: In case you haven't seen it on CB, ML text messaged Mom Robyn that they are all ok around 4pm Eastern. So they're ok! Just without electricity for the time being.
Purr, purrr, purrr, purrr, purrr, purrr, purrr, purrrr, purrrr, purrrr, purrr, purrr, purrr.
Stay safe everyone.
We saw on the CB that Ike had passed through and you were all okay. We are very glad to hear that and hope that you don't have too much cleaning up and/or damage to take care of.
Be safe, guys!!! And once Ike has passed:
We posted the winning Dare and I Dare You to accept the challenge!
Karl
I am visiting so many cats today - I hope I don't dare anybody twice....
We are purrring that you didn't get any damage and that the power comes back on soon! Purrrrs, purrrrs, purrrs!!
Your FL furiendss,
I'm checking on you guys to make sure that things are fine there. Are you? We are hoping that it won't cause much damages. Lots of hugs and purrs from us here.

We're hoping that your electricity comes back sooner rather than later. The news is saying some areas will be out for 2-4 weeks. That would be a very long long long time. Hang in there, we're sending you tons of purrs and purrayers.
Luf, Us
Whoa! Those are byootiful pictures. Thanks for sharing!
Oh dear, we have been following the progress of Ike and the updates in the CB. We are glad that you are OK and hope that there is not too much damage.
We heard you were alright. We hope that everyone else is okay too. We miss you.
Tiki, Tavi, Cody, Camie and Miss Jade
ML, KC and Missy
We have been very worried about you all weekend. We will continue to say purrs for you over this difficult time...you are all in our prayers...

Thinking of you!
We reely reeely hope and purray that y'all are OK!
we ar preying for u to be ok my babys ar worred to and they pry wif me ok stey save u all LOA WUFFYS AND BABYS
ML and crew must not have power yet either, or they would have posted by now. The only reason I'm online is because my daughter's neighbor has a generator and has run a heavy-duty extension cord to my daughter's house -- for the fridge, modem, router, and a few outlets for charging phones and laptops!
We're all fine, but bored, bored, bored. We're not due to get our power back until after next Monday, so ... I'll be continuing to access the Internet here at my daughter's or at a nearby Starbuck's!!
Grace, Audace, and Ruse are doing great. They don't understand my altered go-to-bed and get-up times, though!! LOL
How's everyone at ML's by now (9/18/08)?
{{{{hugs}}}}
The first photo is terrifying!!!
Please, take care and be careful.
We hope that you be all right.
Purrrrrrrrrrs.
puuurrrrrrrsss for you all
Purrring for you!! Hope you are all okay!! ((((((Hugs)))))
Your FL furiends,
We heard you got your power back! Woohoo! Hope you've been keeping your humans warm and calm, and we're so glad you're all ok! We've been purring for you!
Also, if you feel up to it, the house-trashin' party will be next weekend, and we've got more help and more reason to be mad at the OTW!
(Purrrrrrrrrrrrs KC!)
~Jack (and Persephone)
Yay for having your power back. We hope things get back to normal for you and everybuddy very soon!
I have read in the Catblogosphere your good news!! We are so glad that already you have electricity.
When the strange tropical storm Delta visited us (2 years ago), we also were one week without electricity.
Purrrs.
