CATURDAY ART ~ with HORTON HEARS A WHO

Hello Horton.  I'd like to be a big blue eley-phant for Halloween.

Little June, I'm not sure I can accommodate you as you are quite small.

But Horton, you always said, "a person's a person, no matter how small".

True, but you are a cat.

I know you can do something . . .

Oh, Horton, magic.  Love my big ears 'n' tail.  Purr-fect!  Meowz!

[now let me share a little once-upon-a-time story about

another Horton that mine Mommy knew and loved

and some wonderful kitties who came before ...

"OK, June ... I would love to hear a story ... about 'me' ..."]

MEET HORTON

Auntie Dee's RV, fondly named after that big blue pachyderm,

about to hit the road ... with Miss Ann, now Angels TK, Pip and Zoey.

We would travel from Maryland to Florida,

stopping for little adventures along the way ... and did so for several years to follow,

and yes ... the kitties were all "happy wanderers.

2015

Of course, HORTON and HORTON

Here, with an adventure in the beautiful little town of Micanopy, FL and another

when we visited Cross Creek, FL known as the long-time home and orange grove

of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings.  She lived there beginning in the late 1920s

until her death, writing her best known book while there, "The Yearling".

Yes, Horton took us many many places wonderful, fun

and beautiful over the years.  He and his Mommy still travel 

North to South every year, they are "snow birds" ... though we no longer

travel with them, we do miss our days of adventures.

HORTON HEARS A WHO

was written by Theodor Geisel Seuss, Dr. Seuss 

in 1954, published by Random House

The big blue, with his elephant-sized heart, was always known

to save the day, and famously said,

"any person big or small, can speak up for what is right."

Well, said, Horton.

We can all speak up for what is right,

when we cast our votes on November 3, 2026,

right, Horton?
