We can't trust that woman to do anything right. We have been reading about Blogoversarys and 100 posts and gotcha days and birthdays and realized: MOM MISSES EVERYTHING!!!
So, we are going to mess with her. In celebration of the New Year, we are going to host a commentathon. We know we don't get too many visitors here, so we are hoping our loyal followers will pass the word on and maybe we can meet some new kitties, doggies and peoples.
For our commentathon, we are gonna make mom donate $.25 per comment to Citizens for Humane Action which is where mom is currently volunteering. So hop to it people!!!
If you are curious, this is Ivy & Spud in March 2009 - when they were only about 7 months old.

Edit as of 12/30/10: Mom said that it is for this post only and that she will count all posts through 11:59pm 12/31/10. (and as of right now we have 46 posts and mom almost fell out of her chair). MOL!!
Oh is it for comments on this post? We think this is a great idea - did you let the cat blogosphere know - that will get a lot of people over! And we will let our friends know too!
ReplyDeleteA commentathon is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visits to our blog. We are also following you now :). Purrs,
Pip, Smidgen, Minnie, and Hollie
Hooray for a commentathon! I always have to remind my mom about stuff, too.
ReplyDeleteI was a foster kitty until I was adopted by my furrever home. My mom and dad donate monthly to the local pet shelter, where Calypso came from, and to Project Purr in Santa Cruz. -- Zazou
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful idea and so generous to help the animals.
ReplyDeleteWE came to visit from Amy. I hope you get some more comments. How much longer are you going to have the commentathon and I will be glad to put the info on my post for tomorrow. That looks like a great organization to donate it too.
ReplyDeleteWe came from Amy's blog....Good luck with the commentathon. It's a great idea!

ReplyDeleteAmy from House of Cats has gotten the word out so you should get loys of comments. Thanks to her I now have you bookmarked and can enjoy your site. When my two very senior kitties cross the bridge I plan on doing fostering too.
ReplyDeleteI came from Amy too - I am glad you want to help out this organization! I looked at their site and they certainly have a lot of kitties up for adoption!

Just heard from The House of Cats you were looking for some comments to raise some funds. Good luck with you commentathon.
ReplyDeleteI was told that you were holding a comment-athon to fundraise for kitties. So I thought since I can't adopt anymore cats, I could at least take 5 minutes to help. Thank you for caring for those babies!
ReplyDeleteSiku Marie sent me to wish you well on your commentathon! I am sure you will get lots of visitors. Be sure and let Ann at Zoolatry know, she knows zillions of catz!
ReplyDeleteGood luck,
Stella the Borador
(By the way I am letting my khat Ali Zophia use my commenter, so be sure and count her!
This is Ali Zophia, I am a muted Tortie, very pretty but I am NOT Stella's cat. I am our Mom's cat. Good wishes on your commentathon, I hope you make lots of monies.
ReplyDeleteMeow, meow,

What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWe hope you have a wonderful and blessed new year. Thank you for being our friends!
We are so happy to see that you are raising so much money for pets who need homes! One of us (Trixie) was adopted from a shelter, so finding homes for pets is very important to us.
ReplyDeleteWe just started our own blog. Come visit us!
I couldn't resist grabbing another .25 out of your mom's pocket.
ReplyDeleteShe is an Angel straight from Heaven to be doing the work she does.
Come over and see my new babies, adopted from our local shelter. They are 3 months old now and so precious.
We needed to hurry and fill the enormous gap left by the loss of our dearest boy Wendell, who crossed the bridge in October at 14 years. We fully expected 20 years out of him but some cancer grew in him and we had to let him go. Hubby and I are still not over it but we've moved on and our little 'monkey's' keep us laughing and moving lots of things to higher, inaccessible places ;)
Happy New Year to all of you there. You are very lucky cats.
