story time for cats... in.... space!

Oskar, the blind kitty, is now stardust.
However, his space adventure, "Mission To Cataria", with Klaus will live on forever!
Once into the ether, always out there somewhere!
(smile!)
Thanks to the project to send their book to the International Space Station, the actual book gained passage and arrived there earlier this year.
Once there, it had to wait its turn to be read aloud..
and that moment has arrived!
The story, written by Travis Bossard and Mick Szydlowski, has been read aloud by Richard (Ricky) Arnold II, a genuine astronaut!
But guess why I think this almost 55-year-old was the right man for the task?
He's a former US Navy sailor, like me! And what does the acronym "N.A.V.Y." mean? "Never Again Volunteer Yourself" - LOL! That's how we found ourselves in the Navy - by volunteering our services. That trait is in our blood, that desire for helping others.
i thank You, God!
I also like that he was a former science teacher - also like me! Plus, he loves the ocean. Purr-fect!
(smile!)
Now, settle in for the tale, keeping in mind that its run time is 13:51 minutes.
My many thanks to Story Time From Space for making "Mission To Cataria" a reality!
It's available here or on the ISS website.
