My Snoop Catty Catt Bow Tie!

Hi everyone! A few weeks ago my Mom entered a contest on one of our favorite blogs:

Visit Catsparella at 

http://www.catsparella.com

and the prize was that the winner could pick out a bow tie of their choice from Snoop Catty Catt!!!

I couldn't believe my luck when I found out that I was one of the winners!!

Mom gets the credit for everything
but it was really ME
that entered!!

The timing couldn't have been more perfect! I was sitting here remembering how nice it was when Nellie stopped by to visit me,

but alas, the time passed much too quickly. I know that she has many mancats vying for her attention and I felt I just had to come up with something to impress her.

I have a feeling that my new bow tie from Snoop Catty Catt just might be the ticket!!

My Mom and I pondered over what color to choose and decided that purple would look the best against my sophisticated charcoal gray fur. What do you think?

All of the bow ties from Snoop Catty Catt are machine washable  which comes in handy when my nervousness causes me to spill bits of my Tuna cocktail when fine dining with the beautiful and charming Nellie. Mom can hang it to dry and even iron if she owned one on low heat if desired.

The ties are "handmade with love in Vancouver, Canada which will also impress Nellie since she is part Canuck!

If  I want to pawchase more bow ties for our fancy dates I can do that on snoopcattycatt.etsy.com. I can also pussy foot over and visit them on Facebook to tell them about my date with Nellie at facebook.com/snoopcattycatt.

Thank you Catsparella for having such a great give-away and thank you to Snoop Catty Catt for my catabulous bow tie!!

Now...to hope this tie works some magic with Nellie!

Farewell To Hootie, A Cat Saying "Good-Bye" To Another, "Wordy" but Necessary Wednesday

Those of you who are regular readers of Cat Chat are familiar with guest posts that I have published by Linda Wasche, the owner and founder of "Nooter's Club" (see widget on right-hand sidebar), the directory of low cost spay/neutering facilities around the country. Linda also acts as my additional eyes and ears in the community, bringing to my attention various cat related adoption events, fundraisers etc. that I otherwise may have unintentionally missed.

Linda and I  met as a result of this blog and often I don't know what I would do without her.

Her love of animals and her tireless work on their behalf is exemplary.

Tonight, I found this, in my inbox.  Here are Linda's words describing what you are about to watch:

"I recently lost my cat, Hootie, to kidney failure.  Hootie was adopted from Oakland Pet Adoption Center in Auburn Hills, MI and was a wonderful and very loving cat.  One of my other cats, BJ, is seen here, in this YouTube post saying goodbye to his friend.  Even though we had Hootie for only 10 months,  he was a big part of our family.  I think you will be amazed and touched by what you see.  I think these cats know so  much more than we think.   - Linda"




Please join me in sending  Linda and BJ purrs and prayers for strength in this difficult time.


To those who stopped by to find out who the winner of the Nature's Logic cat food is, I apologize for the delay. I will post the winner tomorrow. When I received this video I felt it was important to share Hootie with all of you and to have you, the most caring people in the world, along with your  kitties and doggies, give Linda, BJ and Hootie the love that you are ALL known for!!
