Movie Premiere Party IdeasIn Feburary 2016 14,

In Feburary 2016 14,
Create your own red carpet. You can use any red material, and it doesn't have to be very long. Folded or cut to fit your space. However you make it, guests will enjoy walking down a red carpet to enter the party. Take the idea further and lay out the red fabric on your walkway outside and illuminate it with paper lanterns or candles. Ensure guests have enough room to walk and aren't likely to tip over the candles.
Costumes
When you send your invitations, include a request to come in costume. Depending on your theme, invitees can dress as characters from movies or as Hollywood stars. This helps get your guests into the spirit of the night before they arrive.
Pictures with the Stars
Use life-size cardboard cutouts of movie stars to greet guests at the door. An alternative is to make the cutout a reporter, microphone in hand, and have your guests pose for interviews as they arrive. If you're celebrating a particular movie, use cutouts of that movie's characters; for a general Hollywood theme use a backdrop of the Hollywood sign to create this photo opportunity.
Themes
The premiere of a particular movie sets the theme for you. To add something to a general movie premiere-themed party, choose a movie genre for the guests' costumes. Base your party on the golden age of Hollywood and play movie classics such as 'Casablanca' or 'Citizen Kane' in the background. Choose a film noir theme and have your guests come dressed as characters from 'The Maltese Falcon' or 'The Big Sleep.'
Food and Drink
Serve food and drink compatible with the theme. Anything from canapés and champagne to popcorn and soda may be suitable, depending on the night's activities. Classic Hollywood calls for champagne, or sparkling cider, and sophisticated treats. If you plan on watching movies, theater foods get guests in the spirit of the evening.
Activities
Movie-trivia games can be tailored to any theme; present mini-Oscars to the game winners. Movie watching, especially if you encourage your guests to shout out comments and talk back to the characters, can be entertaining as well. If that's your plan, ask guests to bring their favorite movies. If you're hosting the party before a movie premiere, a game of plot-guessing can be fun; after you've seen the movie, give prizes to the people who guessed the outcome.

How to find free kittensIn Feburary 2016 02,

In Feburary 2016 02,
Ask your neighbors if they know of any available litters of kittens. Going local gives you the chance to get to know your area and lets you make a big difference in a little kitten's life. Your neighbors may also know of wild cats in the area. Feral cats can be caught and tamed with patience and skill. Such cats may also have kittens in dire need of adoption. Contact your local rescue groups for details about feral kitten capture and fostering.
Look for pet ads in the local newspaper. Often cat owners will place ads offering free kittens for adoption. A cat owner may have failed to neuter a pet or may have found an abandoned kitten. At the interview, bring documentation of your ID, residence and possibly your income. The owner may also ask you for references from friends and relatives to indicate that you are capable of caring for a kitten. Bring a clean cat carrier or a well-lined cardboard box to house the kitten as you take it home with you.
Contact local colleges to enquire about a pet adoption service. Some dorms allow students to have a pet, and many students who bring a kitten to campus find they lack the time for care for it. Make and put up signs indicating your interest in acquiring a kitty. Contact student organizations on campus and get permission to post a 'Kitten Wanted' poster.
Contact a rescue group or a shelter. Rescue groups work with cats and kittens that have been abandoned or abused. Some do not charge an adoption fee for a kitten, or offer reduced fees in exchange for volunteer work. Rescuing a kitten allows you to welcome a new member of the family and save a life at the same time. Shelters may also waive fees for adoptions under certain circumstances, such as adopting a long-term shelter resident or during special promotions. State and local programs offer intermittent financial assistance with adoption fairs as well as spaying/neutering and vaccinations.
Foster a kitten. Most shelters and rescue groups are swamped with abandoned and needy animals, and are grateful to anyone who can temporarily care for a kitten while it awaits adoption in a permanent home. People who foster are often supplied with food and supplies from the rescue group or shelter, although other volunteers are expected to provide food but are not charged an adoption fee should they decide to make the fostering a permanent arrangement. Veterinary care is usually covered by the shelter or rescue group. Fostering can be ideal for someone who isn't sure they want to adopt a kitten or has never done so before.
Check Craig's List.This online community bulletin board features classified advertisements in most major cities. The website has a specific forum devoted to pets, where you can scan listings or post a 'Kitten Wanted' ad of your own. You may find the perfect kitten just around the block.
