Leo's 12th Gotcha Day!

 12 years! I cannot believe it's been 12 years since we drove down to get Leo from Chrystal and Winnie's Wish! 
 
I still can't believe Greg said we could drive 8 hours to get a kitty! And Chrystal drove many hours to meet us nearly half way! 
 
Here's the first picture I ever took of my baby
 
Leo: Uh.. hey... um, does I needs help or is these gonna be ok kinda peoples? Not sure if I should be freakin' out, but I is.. a little.. sorta. 

 (wow, the difference in the phone camera quality!)

I'm gonna try to put up an update about Leo's health and maybe mine, at a later point but for now:

Happy Gotcha Day Sweet Boy!!!

I loves you!!!
 
 
Does this count as his first Sunday Selfie? :) 
 
For fun, here's a link to my first blog post talking about the trip home with him if you are interested: 
EDIT: whoops, that's the second post! here's the first:

Glitter's Sunday Selfie

 
Glitter: Hello everyone! Hope you're having a lovely, fluffy Sunday, like I am! 


Oh we've missed you all! We won't go into any of it, but there's been a lot keeping us from blogging.  Frankly, we're tired of hearing it from ourselves too, so we won't bore you! 
We are trying, and we are peeking in at a lot of you when we can. So even if we don't comment, know we're there, cheering you on in everything you do! 
Love you all!

Auction Result Time!

Leo: Is this thing on? Hello? I has an announcement to make! Can you hear me now?? 
 
The auction was over a while back, I know, but mommy had a harder time fining a few peoples and getting everything mailed out. We's all sorry it has taken so long!! But I also think it's worth waiting for! oooo you're gonna love it! 

We waited until Miss Chrystal announced it over at her Daily Dose blog, go ahead over there if you want to hear if from her first! Then come back here after, we'll wait!  

Waiting.. 

Waiting.. 

Hmmm hmm hmmmm HMmmmMM hmmm 

Waiting.... 

Are they back yet? 

Can you still hear me? 

Oh boy, this is gonna rock!! 

Now, this is combined with the Raffle moneys and a few pre-auction hometown sales of some heavier things that we're glad no one had to pay postage for, and of course, our daddy's rounding up!

Ready for the GRAND TOTAL?!!?

Da da DA!


$2500!!!!!



Can you believe it?? 

Whoo hoo! We is so very very happy! The Wishers can get lots of noms (that's foods for you non cat speaking folks) and litters and (even though no one likes it) ebil V.E.T visits with that! 

YOU ALL ROCK!!!!! 

Yes, YOU! 

Every bid, every share, every visit to the auction helped us get here! And every extra sent, and straight donations, and extra help for postage, all helps!!! And we cannot thank you enough!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! 
Nope, still not big enough. So please consider yourself head bumped/buddy bumped by all the Wishers and all of us!! We loves you!!!!

Mancat Cave Monday

 Baby it's cold outside! You can tell it's cold because the the Mancat is in the Mancat Cave! And he's got his tail wrapped around his nose. So yeah, cold! 

Leo: Not coming out until spring... or you turn the heat up, whichever comes first.


Hate to tell ya, Leo, the heat has been turned up! Guess I'll see you in spring?

Raffle Extension

 Oh my gosh, what a week! I announced the Raffle a week ago and haven't posted since? How does that happen? 

Well for one, we had internet issues for a few days. Someone took out a transformer down the street from us and they took their sweet time fixing it. Ok, that's unfair because they were out there right away, it just took them way way way longer than expected. And when it did come back, it was spotty at best. 

Right while I was trying to finish up the auction and start the raffle! 
 
Even with that, I can't believe it's been a whole week! I don't even have a picture for caturday art! 
 
So I hope this doesn't seem unfair to those who have got their tickets to the raffle already, but I think I need to extend it until Tuesday to make up for the missing time.
 
 Please, please, share the raffle banners below. And Please join in! There's still time to get your hands on this wonderful kitty-ful blanket! 

Every bit of it, every single ticket, goes to help the kitties of Winnie's Wish! 

Full details on the Winnie's Wish Auction Site.
 
 


Thank you!! And again, I'm sorry for the delay and the non-posting!

Caturday Art and Last Auction Day

 I love Caturday Art! I love playing with the pictures to see what comes out good and what just looks weird. I should have saved some of the weird ones! I didn't so I hope you agree that these are good. 

I used Lunapic on Glitters Wordless Wednesday picture. 


Here's Christmas Needlework
 
 
 
Watercolor
