Awhile ago, Bloggers for Peace issued a challenge to make an advertisement for peace. Bloggers accepted the challenge in full-force with everything from billboards to videos. It is pretty fantastic and if you haven’t already added the B4Peace tag to your reader– go do that right now. You’ll be blown away by the amazing minds and talents in this world.
Advertisement is one area, though, where I think small. I’m a fan of guerrilla marketing strategies– simple, cheap, interactive, and weird.
Hence, #PeaceCat.
A too-serious orange cat with a penchant for peace.
The Internet loves cats and peace. It’s a match made in orange-tabby heaven.
Here’s some starter ideas. Feel free to take them, change them, spread them, share them, etc!
Or, if you’d like PeaceCat to say something specific to your style of peace activism, let me know and I’ll make one up for you.

Meow if you love peace!







These are great Rara! is there…anyway you…can also add Kozo’s “#b4peace” to them?? That’s what all the tweets are going under. It will help build the momentum.
I have already posted this on the b4peace FB page
Thanks doll!!! yes I am fast :p … I am not sure if that is a blessing or a curse rofl
Haha, a blessing, most definitely!
I’m not so magical..I just happened to be sitting here working on a project for Adam and I and saw the ping LOL.
ok one last thing…can you e-mail these to me so I can upload them to the flyer/badge page?? cherispeakblog@yahoo.com
Of course, ’tis done, lovely!
I love peace cat xx
Meow! Rawr!
Meow & rawr! Peace & love! I like it. It’s quite balanced.
Haha, thanks for the PeaceCat support!

ooops I lied…idea for one more that says “Withdraw Your Claws, Paws for Peace” …? pretty Please?
Haha, that sounds fabulous!
Would you like credit on it, if so, just let me know what name to put!
that would be great and CheriSpeak is just fine!! Thanks!!
WooHoo! I LOVE it! Thank you very much!!! I will either get them uploaded tonight or in the morn.
No rush,
Glad you love it!
Ok they are now up on the b4peace wordpress and I tweeted my first one
… back to working on the book :p
So cute, so meow-y! I’ll put on my blog! If I can make a sticker, I’ll put it on my car, too!
PeaceCat would be so cute as a sticker! Meow!
Peace Cat is so cool. This is really going to take off! How about “A Purr-fect World is one which embraces Peace.” xo Rufina
Genius! I’ve updated the post with a Rufina PeaceCat pic.
Thank you for your idea, let me know if the credit was done right.
Awesome, love it!
Oh good!
I wish I could put my Sam (dog) on one. Not that I don’t love your cats! I do! But, my readers know Sam. Oh well, I will do what I can. I am trying to think of something clever but my brain is fried tonight.
Awww, yes, Sam would be an awesome addition. Maybe PeaceCat can quote him? Give him some time to think of something peaceful, and then let me know.
sure that would be awesome! How about…..
Have a piece of Peace! It’s grrreat! (I know it’s more tony the tiger but I couldn’t resist.)
Haha, I love it! I added it to the PeaceCat cards above.
Check it out and let me know if I credited it right.
aww that looks great! I know I’m quick, but I was just answering some other stuff.
I’m going to put this on my blogs! Both of them. Thanks rara!
Yay! Thanks for spreading the word of Sam Dog and Peace Cat, haha!
That is beautiful.
fabulous!!!
Thanks!!
MEOW for peace! And MEOW for your great post!
Meow!
Thank you!
I like the “worthwhile, profitable & achievable” one. Many people seem to think (world) peace would go at the cost of our prosperity, which isn’t true.
It’s true! Peace is good for the bottom line, better even than outright war.
Thanks, Blogster!
I love these. They’re fantastic and I think simple is definitely the best way to go to get a point across.
Thank you!! I thought you might appreciate the kitty, haha!
A ginger cat to promote peace? Love!
Gingers for peace!
Thanks for the love!
Peace Cat is much cooler than Grumpy Cat
At least 5 times cooler.
That might be pushing it. I’d go with 4 – MAYBE 4.5 – but 5?
4.5 it is! haha! And now you know that I’m the world’s worst negotiator.
Love cats and peace! Will use them – thanks.
Hurrah! Thank you!!
That is a sure fun way to get the word out there!! I too meow for peace and bark with a woof-woof!!
Blessings – Patty
Meows, woofs, and blessings to you as well, Patty!
Thanks!!
I love “Withdraw Your Claws – Paws for Peace!” The rhythm and the wordplay (pause = paws) catch my attention! Beautiful! What about: “Give me Friskies! No more mice for me! Peace, Cat”
I love that one, too! Tis the genius of Cheri! (http://cherispeak.wordpress.com/).
Love yours! A peace-activist cat would DEFINITELY not eat poor little mice, haha! I’ll make one with your phrase a little later today. Should I credit to “HeartFlow”? Thanks!!
Yes, sure: Heartflow is good! thanks! It is such fun to be part of this creative flow from the heart with all of US! ☼ ♥ Tomas
Saw it, Great! Thanx!
AnElephantCant tell you how happy he is
His circle of friends is on the increase
He likes Rarasaur
And he wants to do more
To help her cute little cat advertise peace
AnElephantCant know
how welcomed help always is.
Rara shared Peace with her friends,
and to help–
he could pass Peace to his.
Thanks!!
If I can has cheeseburger, I can has peace!
Love it!! As soon as I’m on my designy computer, I shall make one! Shall I credit to PonderingSpawned?
Lol, credit it to peaceburgers!
Meow! Those are great – my fave was the “Withdraw your Claws” one. Thanks for the add and right back atcha
Thanks! Off to check out your friend Cheri’s blog
I love Peace Cat and I’m sharing her! Thanks you so much for this wonderful post!

These are SO COOL, Rara. I LOVE the comma. (Is that a comma?) Peace, Cat.
I told my cousins this weekend (who didn’t believe you existed), but I will say it again–”Rarasaur is a visionary.”
{{{Hugs}}} Kozo
Yep, “Peace, Cat”, exactly like that.
Thank you, Kozo, but all I’m taking your vision one little step forward. YOU’RE the visionary.
How about one for being a vegetarian? “Meow if you don’t eat animals” or something like that? I’d love that one!!!
It’s up!
I credited it to EnchantedSeashells, hope that’s okay!!
That would be lovely, thank you! I am a staunch supporter of loving animals, not eating them!:)
Reblogged this on everyday gurus and commented:
Peace+Cats+Rarasaur=peace going viral. Click here to say you saw it first.

Lovely messages for peace Rara, I’m on board! ♥
Hi Rara, could you add this quote:
“The Simple Path
Silence is Prayer
Prayer is Faith
Faith is Love
Love is Service
The Fruit of Service is Peace”
― Mother Teresa
♥♥♥
It’s added!
Thanks for the contribution to PeaceCat!
I like withdraw the claws , wonderful work.
Thanks, Becki! That one is awesome, it’s the result of the genius of Cheri (http://cherispeak.wordpress.com/).
This is brilliant and so catchy! I’d love an iron-on patch to put on my back-pack ! hehe Is there some marketing in the works for this? Because there really should be! I love how you and Greyson team up ! Thumbs up to great relationships!
