This Tuxie Is Pawing It Forward…Will You?

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

This is going to be soooo good

This is going to be soooo good

I am excited to be doing a Tuxie Tuesday post…and especially because it is another one of my Paw It Forward Projects!  As my pal Nissy says…Yoo Hoo!!…YOO!! HOO!!

You all know I am a GREAT BIG SUPPORTER of all things “animal rescue”…and especially when it is for those smaller, hard working 501 3c’s like my former shelter rescue, Contra Costa Humane  Society, who do so very, very much with so very , very little when it comes to funding AND to real paid staff…so many do it all as volunteers.

Pawsome I say, simply PAWSOME!

I am going to ask for votes…yeah, yeah…I know, I know…voting is not the best way to select the most deserving for many things…but it’s the way the peeps do stuff mostly.  I am asking for you to consider committing the next ten days of your peeps’ fingers to “hitting the ENTER” key to vote for a deserving and new group in Nova Scotia who are trying to diminish the over population of cats in their community…4 paws at a time…and they are doing it in a very helpful way…just watch the video and you will understand.

OK..now you ask “WHO is Emily’s Place?”…good question…and I, as always, have the answer…umm…well, at least Nissy does…here is what he had to say on his post on Sunday…”They help other peeps get their kitties spayed and neutered.  Sometimes peeps need help payin’ for the operation.  Well, Emily’s Place helps them do that.  Sometimes peeps need help gettin’ their kitties to the doctor to have the operation.   Well, Emily’s Place helps ‘em do that, too.  They do whatever it takes to help the peeps in their community help the kitties.”

They deserve to have all of us help them ‘cuz they probably don’t have a kabillion or so Face Book followers who will consistently vote, day in and day out…let’s get to helping the little guys who do great work.

…be sure to take a look at their video…

OK THIS is how you help THEM get the funding to carry on this awesome Canadian good work :-

  • Click Through here.
  • Register (super simple either FB or email – we don’t do this very often, but after checking them out and seeing their reputation was superb…and…knowing Emily’s Place could win a ton of green papers…we signed up!).
  • Go back EACH DAY and Vote Again for ONLY 10 WHOLE DAYS!  You DO NOT have to do this for like a month or whatnot…easy peasy
  • Spread the Word to EVERYONE. The power of the PAW is with us for Emily’s!

Monday Meowsie News…

HIYA!!  SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Things have been quiet around here…sort of…but more about that later….nothing to worry about…just not sure what’s happening…ummm….sorry I worried you about me being stressed and stuff. It really is OK here at home…just some strange things going on…still investigating but will be reporting on my findings soon I hope.

Moving on…I have been starting to hang out more with Mom in our office…I snoopervise her from the chair she has in there just special for me…it’s odd but sometimes I think I hear something when we are working…not sure what that is tho’…hmmm…

….and I have been giving my legs a good workout using my special step…keeps my quads and calves and upper body strong…

Keeping Fit!

Keeping Fit!

…I also have to keep an eye out for introoders…so my step helps me do that…no way anyone can get past my front door without me seeing them…and they would never ever see me…right?

I did catch my Dad being disloyal this week…he and Mom had to do some stuff at my former shelter…and I caught a look at a photo of him cheating on me….harrummmmpppffff!

Shocking! He cheated on me!

Shocking! He cheated on me!

Most of you know I don’t do much exploring around my home…but every once in a while…if a drawer is left open…heh…heh

Thursday Purrsday…

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Thursday Purrsday is my day to share some of the things that keep me purring.  And, sometimes I share things I hope you will help me do, so someone else can have a good Thursday Purrsday too.

…I have a little of both today…I had Mom Linda almost gushing leaky eyes yesterday afternoon.  You see, she bought me two really nice hammik beds like the ones we see lots of other kittehs enjoying…I got them last Catmas Day.  Now, Cuzin Leo has one I gave him for his New Furrever Castle Warming…and well…I just don’t use mine much at all.

Mom Linda always hoped I would use mine, which I keep in our office, so I can nap in it while she types my blog.  She got her wish Wednesday…(click to bigify and hover your mousie over each photo for captions)

I am so purrleased that I have this hammik near Mom Linda…you see…we have been having some stress at home…I can’t talk about yet…I need more information…but I have been a tad jumpy lately…just sayin’…

And now for a request to you all….to help make another adult rescue woofie (BTW…they deserve forever homes too for all you kittehs out there wondering *snicker*) have a Thursday Purrsday of his own soon.

…Remember Phinny?…(click on the link to read all about him)

He so wants to kiss Foster Mom

He so wants to kiss Foster Mom

Well, Phinny had so many peeps wanting to help him get well…Contra Costa Humane Society, my former rescue who pulled him, a pitty mix, from being PTS…received $12, 000 USD in donations to help pay for Phinny’s surgery and recovery.  And peeps lined up wanting to be put on the list to adopt Phinny when he was through his surgery.

Guess WHAT! His surgery was successful…and now…no one wants to adopt him!

…check him out after his surgery…just hanging out with his foster siblings…

Here is my request for all of you reading my Thursday Purrsday post…please help me, help Phinny…he is all well now and looking for his furrever home…and no one, nope, not anyone…after he had his life saving surgery…has stepped forward to adopt Phinny…please, please…share, Tweet, post about Phinny…let’s get him to his furrever home before Catmas Day…

…check him out after his full recovery surgery…learning all about PEANUT BUTTER..

I am not asking for any green papers,  I am just asking you to promote this pawsome woofie…Mom Linda and Dad Peter have purrsonally volunteered to transport him to anywhere in Northern California, and as far as Reno, Nevada and up to the Oregon border.

Let’s all do what we do best in Blogville…help Phinny have his very own Thursday Purrsday…

Now I join Pepi Smart Dog in his Thankful Thursday blog hop…click HERE to read more thankfulness…
