Pick a card, any card!

As many of you know, I purrticipated in the AmazeCats Next Top Cat contest, and while I didn't make it past the third seed, YOU were ALL "amazing!" You enabled me to not only make it into the Top 32 but you  enabled me to make the third seed by giving me over 700 votes! I was completely blown away! (I also want to congratulate Daisy, Katie, Sparkle, Odin and Allie for making it into the Top 32 as well!). You can view the winner of the AmazeCats contest here

What was super cool is that my blogging buddies and I all made it into the latest deck of the Next Top Cat Playing Cards!

Here is my card!

Purrsonally I would have rather been The Joker Card but I like the Seven of Clubs. I was "gotted" in the seventh month so that works for me!

A Plea to my friends!

Hi all, it's Cody! Since Mom is still quite ill (yes, you may see her online, but that is just because she is incredibly NOSY), and residing in the land of the "sickies" (physical "sickies", you already knew about her mental incompetence)....I am taking over the computer today!

 Once again THANK YOU to all of my friends who voted for me in the AmazeCats competition, but as many of you know, I was eliminated in the last round.  Turns out I was in the WRONG bracket! MOL! Had I been in the competition that ended yesterday, I not only would have moved on, I would have CLEANED UP with the 387 Legal votes that I had (I actually ended up with votes that took me well over 400 but those came in after the contest ended at 2pm) ....but I digress....

Congratulations to Odin from Cat Wisdom 101, he's moving on and he is gonna have his work cut out for him, but once again...I digress. This post isn't about ME or Odin......it's about my dear furiend:

Not only do I think that Katie is pretty darned amazing,  she did so much purring to her peeps to try and get me to move on in my bracket, that it is the LEAST that I can do for her!!

So, what I would LOVE, is for all of you that would have voted for ME (OR NOT)......TO PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE FOR KATIE TODAY!!!!! Oh and please ask your furiends to vote for her too? VOTING WILL CONTINUE UNTIL 2PM ET THURSDAY!

HERE IS THE DIRECT LINK TO VOTE FOR KATIE!!

AmazeCats Battle of the Brackets! Let's get ready to "MEOW!" THIS FRIDAY:VOTE CODY!

From AmazeCats:

A Meow About Cat Bracketology

In an effort of fairness, and in true bracket fashion, the cats were seeded based on the number of votes they received in the nomination voting. Cats with more votes earned a higher seed and cats with fewer votes, a lower seed. But never fear if your favorite cat is up against a kitty powerhouse in the first round - anything can happen! The cats will be voted on in kitty "clowders" of 4 and the top 2 in each clowder will move on. We're moving into bracket voting now, so fans will have to choose only one cat to vote for in each clowder of 4...it's a BIG decision, we know! When only 8 cats remain, the voting will switch to a paw-to-paw showdown until only one top cat remains! 

From AmazeCats: Some may have considered Cody  an "undercat" from the beginning, but his dedicated following and catty good looks earned him a 3rd seed and a great advantage on his way to the top!

An "Undercat?" C'mon my furiends! Let's prove them WRONG!

VOTING FOR MY BRACKET WILL TAKE PLACE
 ON FRIDAY, APRIL 5TH,
 I WILL BE BACK WITH THE LINK WHEN I HAVE IT!

THERE WILL ONLY BE ONE DAY TO VOTE!
ALL VOTING WILL TAKE PLACE ON FACEBOOK!

 http://www.facebook.com/AmazeCats?fref=ts

(you can find Katie, Sparkle and Odin there too, we all have different voting days! Check Facebook to find out what days to vote for them!)

Please vote for "Cody the "Undercat!"
ON FRIDAY!

Love,

Cody

THANK YOU! from Cody....

Hi every furry! It's Cody and I am just blown away by all of the wonderful birthday greetings that I received yesterday! Wow! It really meant so much to me and I want to THANK each and every one of you for taking the time to stop by!

I know you are all busy and the fact that so many of you took time out of your day to wish me a Happy Birthday means the WORLD to me! So I thank you from the bottom of my furry little heart!

Now, I want  to show you a few  things today and the first one is this adorable birthday greeting that I received from my dear furiend Nellie!

Isn't that just the sweetest!! Nellie posted this on a SPECIAL BLOG POST that she made just for me!  I know Nellie has a special boyfriend so the fact that she took the time to make this for me, really touched my heart! THANK YOU NELLIE!!

The next item I want to share with you is a special Cat In The Hat Mat that Mom ordered from our furiends Mollie and Alfie  as a special birthday surprise!

I was just resting in my new cat cave, (if you haven't entered our Laurel Burch give-away you still can!) when Mom plopped down a package in front of me.

Mom wanted me to come out, but I refused. When she opened the package I asked if a note had been written to me and she said "Nope, there was just the mat in the package. I guess that Mollie and Alfie were too busy to write you a little note. They have a lot of orders to fill in their shop but I am sure they send their good wishes anyway."

I do love my mat! Mom and I love The Cat In The Hat and this  mat is super cute!! I refuse to come out and show you how much I like it though. Hey, if there is no card or note for me in the package, then you don't get to see me! That's the name of that tune! You'll just have to trust me when I say I LOVE IT!

Thanks to my Mom for ordering this from Mollie and Alfie for my birthday!!! 

If you would like to visit Mollie and Alfie's shop, click here or on the many links above!

Last but FAR from least, I want to thank EVERYONE that voted for me in the AmazeCats Next Top Cat of the Internet contest!

YOU were ALL "amazing!" You enabled me to not only make it into the Top 32 but you  enabled me to make the third seed by giving me over 700 votes! I was completely blown away! (I also want to congratulate Daisy, Katie, Sparkle, Odin and Allie for making it into the Top 32 as well!) More than likely the special needs kitties with thousands upon thousands of votes will win, but it will be fun to see how close to the top each of us can get in this competition!

Guess what that means furiends? Another round of voting begins on Wednesday to narrow the purring playing field down even more! Stay tuned for the link to vote! Get those clicking fingers ready! I need all of the help that I can get! Thank you and much love!


Have a great day all!

Love, Cody

Famous Cats Of The Internet Charity Playing Cards by AmazeCats! World-Wide Give-Away!

I was excited when I was one of a few bloggers who was contacted by AmazeCats (a "cats only" group) asking if I would be interested in sharing news about their latest venture. I was delighted to learn that they had teamed up with 13 of the most popular cats of the Internet, THAT is open to debate, but I digress, to create a deck of playing cards that 100% of the proceeds of decks of cards sold, will be given to charity, namely the Stray Cat Alliance.

When I heard that I was definitely on board! For those not familiar with the Stray Cat Alliance, they are a non-profit organization that "educates and empowers the community to advocate for every cat's right to be safe, healthy and valued." You can visit them here

The reason I am featuring my blog post after some of the other bloggers,  is because I wanted to see exactly what these cards looked like in person. I couldn't have been more pleased!

They  are packaged in a convenient plastic case

The deck features cats such as:

Henri, le Chat Noir

Oskar the Blind Cat

Waffles (no, not the one YOU are thinking of)

Luna, the Fashion Kitty

(just to name a few)

Now, now Cody! Don't be a spoil sport!! You would have to be blogging for a zillion years to be as famous as the kitties in this deck! That being sad, our furiend at AmazeCats said if this deck is a success, you never know, YOU and some of your furiends just might be featured! Now, let me go back to the blog post please.

 How did AmazeCats determine who the most popular cats of the Internet are? You can read about that here

These adorable cards that are for a good cause are a must-have for every cat lover! To purchase yours for only $12.00 click here
