Ho-Ho-Ho! Treat YOUR Cat with TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats for Christmas! A Give-Away!

Hi every kitty!  It's Cody! I know that during the holiday season you are putting your paws to paper and writing your humans or Santa a special list of gifts that you would like for Christmas, because we all know that you have been extra good, right? Even our pawrents, 2-leggers, or whatever you call the people you live with, make a list of things that they can pawchase for us, as well they should!

A new survey conducted by TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats shows that nearly half of cat owners (46%) go the extra mile this time of year to buy their cat the perfect present to put under the tree!

But...did you know?

TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats polled 2500 Americans via online omnibus survey to find out how many cats would meow with joy over their presents this holiday season. Here are some results:

• 48.7% of women are more likely than men (42.6%) to consider their cat when buying gifts during the holidays.
• But...MEN SPEND MORE! 38.3% of men spend $11-$20 on their cats and women spend $6-$10!

Most 2-leggers  buy toys for their kitties but for many kitties, the purrfect gift would be treats! TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats is the leading cat treat on the market and are the purrfect way to remember your cat for the holidays!

How do I know this? While I can't eat treats (due to my allergies), my Grandpa Bobo COULD and DID, all throughout the 18 years of his life!  His FAVORITE treats were, yep, TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats!! That is why Mom and I will always feature TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats on my blog. It is OUR way of honoring and remembering my Grandpa Bobo! Mom always told me that Grandpa Bobo  was just CRAZY for TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats, and just seeing the packages makes her smile because they remind her of him. So, we are speaking from experience my kitty furiends, and Grandpa Bobo is smiling from the Rainbow Bridge, happy that he can share his favorite treats with MY furiends!

Along with treats, TEMPTATIONS® came up with gift ideas for finicky felines. you can check out the wish-list generator on TEMPTATIONS® Facebook page, www.facebook.com/temptations. By answering a few simple questions about your cat's personality, the wish-list generator will produce customized gift ideas that will make even the most fickle feline purr with delight!

Ok back to the treats! TWO lucky kitties in the U.S. and/or Canada are going to win a stocking full of TEMPTATIONS® Treats for Cats, coupons and cat toys!! Just like mine!

TO ENTER: Just leave a comment telling me why you deserve treats for Christmas! (If you don't tell me why you deserve treats when leaving a comment, you will be disqualified)

Also please leave a way for me to contact you should you be one of the lucky winners!

ENTRY DEADLINE: WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 19TH AT 5PM EST. WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20TH! And...when Mom contacts you telling you that you won, the faster you get your address to her, the FASTER you will get your stockings! TEMPTATIONS®  assured me they will get them to you BEFORE Christmas if Mom and I hear from you in a timely manner!

GOOD LUCK!

BlogPaws Swag!!!

As many of you know, my Mom was heartbroken because at the last minute, literally halfway to the airport, Mom became ill from a kidney stone and couldn't attend BlogPaws 2012.

She was beside herself. She had been looking forward to the event of the year for the ENTIRE year! She had "Newbie" tables to tend to Friday morning, Paws On Patrol responsibilities to fulfill, friends to see, fun to be had,  seminars to attend. How could this happen!?

Mom looked forward to and read every blog post she could find from her buddies attending the conference. She live streamed every event that was available. She tweeted, Facebooked  yeah in our world that IS a word grammar geeks!! and followed everyone she could think of who was attending the conference.

Once it was over, Mom started thinking about NEXT YEAR! BlogPaws 2013 is going to return to Tysons Corner in Vienna, VA (start saving your green papers NOW, it's never to early to start saving!!) 

Then....look what came in the mail!!!

Mom couldn't believe it!!! This is the MOST catabulous bag! 

I couldn't believe my eyes! Somebody sent Mom a BlogPaws bag! I had to move closer and sniff out the situation. I smelled some good things inside!

MOM GOT SWAG!!

Lots and lots of SWAG!

Mom couldn't believe her eyes! Neither could I! Some of the stuff that was in the bag was from Temptations, Bissell, Nutrish (which just happens to be Dakota's favorite food and the only food he will eat!),  a super cool T-shirt which was designed by Glogirly and more!

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

There were

"Angry Birds" by Hartz for me!

Well, I just want to HUGELY THANK the peeps behind the BlogPaws Swag! You made my Mom smile and you gave me something to swat around instead of Dakota!!

THANK YOU BLOGPAWS!!!!!

YOU ARE THE BEST!

Love, Cody
