Hello from Chris. They have 11 cats. 11 seems the right number. Really. Just about right. Because at any given time, 5 cats don’t want anything to do with any other living breathing being, 2 are eating, 2 are pooping juuust outside the litter box, and another 1 is coughing up a hair ball, which leaves exactly 1 to cuddle. So, yea, 11 is about right.

Prince Adobo of Malteenia. He hates rubies but loves emeralds. Especially if they’re star shaped emeralds. Never rectangular! NEVER! And he wants to learn the tuba except on Tuesday mornings.

Roses are red, violets are blue, my hat is gold and I’m feeling old. A gladiator in my hey day, my friends called me Scarsgaard.

Peter Von PumpkinEater. Grew up rich and noble in Germany but decided education was not for him. He freeloads off his inheritance and spends most of his days trying to play checkers with his pet chihuadoodle named Porky (mix of Chihuahua and Poodle). Though since he never got an education he hasn’t quite figured the game out himself. PVPE has decided this year once again, he will tip the valet by giving him the car he drove this year and Peter will buy a new one (as usual), but he always has a hard time deciding on how to tip the butler...

Shomp Romp and his fantastic drum. He sometimes gets carried away and goes through the streets of Los Angeles at 2am just pounding away at his drum. No one has called the police on him yet though because, man, this guy can jam!

Oleg Jorgerson is a reindeer dairy farmer from Karasjok, Norway. He wears his tall hat so that his reindeer can see him from across the vast tundra when he calls them in to get milked.

Charlie Crumpleface from the Norwegian Crumplefaces. He is finishing up 16th grade right now but plans to take over his mother's shop when he graduates in 13 years. She owns a shop that makes custom hats for people with Crumplefaces and the like. He's so excited for his 8th birthday (grades work a little different there).

Ventu Pikachu, from Chile she often travels up north to Michigan for the calendar event. Naturally her favorite number is 14 as it reminds her of a time when she was at a diner with her grandfather some years and years ago. Christmas is okay, New Years is her favorite holiday though which is why she's already bundled up to hang out at Times Square for the celebrations on the 31st. World traveler and she's pretty smert.

This fella is Pablo Picante. He raises bees and dairy cows in Switzerland. His big innovation was strapping the beehives to the cows' backs so that the bees are constantly finding new nectar sources as the cows roam around their summer pastures.

Samsung, goes by Sung. Nice guy. He used to pick his nose but seems to have broken the habit.

Alfred. Goes by Alf. Never mind the cone hat... it's not a dunce cap. This dude is smart! Rocket scientist actually. He beams in communications between aliens via this cone. It's slick

Schwamegan from Menomegon in the U.P. It was "Learning about other Cultures" day in school and Schwamegan failed the quiz on religions of New Guinea so he got the dunce cap.

His name is Sir Orik Von Lichtenstein and you may recognize him from an episode of ER back in 1997 where he caught the role of a patient with a golden hat permanently affixed to the top of his head. The doctors couldn't safely remove the hat, so he decorated it and changed his wardrobe accordingly.

Queen Victoria, the gardener calls her Vickay!, but she sits upon the throne next to the hubby in Scalia, Italy where she also embarks in daily honey harvesting from bees' hives. She often sits and wonders why she is wearing a onesie.

Ashish is his name. Sometimes people think he's about to sneeze when he tells them his name. This can lead to some confusion. So sometimes he just calls himself A-man. That seems to work. He lives in Alaska, which I think is quite obvious based on his attire and really should not need to be addressed yearly by the glazer clan. The flowers on the side of his head are a dead giveaway.

This is Prince Abubububu, he comes from Kenya where he rules all. Not much to him really, he rules his country with an iron fist and his favorite dish is pumpkin cake. He's a man who knows what he wants. He would like to say to you all "Naku Penda Kama Mnama Choma"
