Monday Meowsie News…The Grand Total

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

OH CAT!!! Do I have some great stuff to share with you all today!! So, you remember my First Gotcha Day Pawty was last week, January 3…if you didn’t make it…you can take a look here…but sorry, everything is cleaned up so you have to wait until my First Blogiversary April 1 for more noms…

Anyway, I asked Mom and Dad to make it a Commentathon…and Mom said OK…I’ll chip in 5o cents USD for each comment; then Dad upped her play and said I’ll add another 25 cents…so now I was going to be able to donate 75 cents for EVERY comment to my former rescue group, Contra Costa Humane Society, for their vet care budget (we need lots because we pull adult dogs and cats from the kill shelter and sometimes they need medical help)…

Drum roll purrlease….

BABABOOM…BOOM…BADABOOM…TAPPITY…TAP…TAP…

TOTAL COMMENTS: 75…SEVENTY FIVE!!!

SUB-GRAND TOTAL DONATION AMOUNT: $56.25 USD

BUT WAIT!!! THERE’S MORE!!…

Another blogger raised Mom and Dad by 25 cents…

…making every comment worth ONE WHOLE DOLLAR!!!

(Now you ask “who is the other blogger??…all I know is you have to visit the Katnip Lounge Mob for details…they know more than I do about what happened…just saying…)

GRAND TOTAL: $75

WAIT!!! THERE’S MORE…

I also received a really, really special Gotcha Day card, actually, TWO cards, from my very good furriend, DINAH!! She is a member of RWB (Readers Without Blogs)…I did a post about her, you can see it HERE.

Here are the TWO cards Dinah gave me and the $5 bucks I found inside…first, check out her message to ME!…

…here are the cards and the actual $5 she put inside!…nice cards, huh?!…

Because of Dinah (well, Ok, and her housekeeper) the…

GRAND TOTAL is a whopping $80 USD!!

WAIT!!…WAIT AGAIN!!…EVEN MORE!!!!! (exciting, huh?)

My Champion Jetty, and his Mom Miss Lori and his k9 sister JJ, from Hey, It’s Jet Here…told me they made a donation to Contra Costa Humane Society…in honor of my First Gotcha Day…for $25 USD!!!!!

JETTY, JJ AND MISS LORI PUSHED THE FINAL GRAND TOTAL TO…

GRAND GRAND TOTAL RAISED: $105 USD!!!

APAWS!!! APAWS!!!

Thank you all for pawticipating, we could not have done this without your comments. Remember, you must go ask the KL Mob about that last 25 cent ante that pushed us to ONE WHOLE DOLLARE per comment…they have the scoop on that one…you really need to go find out…just a suggestion…

Now, I really want to share some other cards and e-cards that came in after I did my post…

Cathy Keisha, The Stunning Keisha, who is my BFGF, sent me a card…isn’t it like way cool!!???…

And the following wonderful furriends sent me e-cards…I have included the link if you want to go see them…but because I waited too long to post the link, the card may be gone…so sorry…but here are the furriends who sent them…

Getting My Sunday Easy On…in a tent!!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I am so getting my easy on…I have been sleeping on my Winter afghan…nice colors, huh?

But as you can see, I have to keep my paws around my nose to keep warm…

…then Mom made me this TENT!!…she always promised me I could have one like my Mentor Sammy…and finally…I have one…on our bed! And they turn on our electric blankie so my tent gets nice a warm….ymmmmm

…I tried to go back to sleep after Dad did the FLASH and CLICK thing…so he only got this blurry shot of me closing my eyes…

I am right back under here today…Dad changed our sheets, then remade the tent just like Mom did it…

Hope you are all having a great Easy Sunday…be sure to come back tomorrow for my Monday Meowsie News…I am revealing the Grand Total we raised from my First Gotcha Day Pawty Comment-athon…and you are gonna be purrleased at what happened to make the GRAND TOTAL even more!!!

Saturday Photo Hunt…ADD

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I thought I would try the Saturday photo hunt…but it wasn’t so easy…but I took a hint from Sparkle’s photo…and thought…”good idea”…

Mom is definitely afflicted (VBP)…look at this desk…

She has paper piled everywhere…hoping for inspiration (VBP) somehow…(shakes head)

I…on the other paw…have no such affliction…I am always calm, relaxed…everything in purrfect order…

…ummmmm…except maybe for my current tissue paper pile…it is getting a teensy bit like, torn up…

But, just because sometimes I leave my stuff out after a play session with Mom…doesn’t mean “I” have ADD…

MOM!!!! STOP IT!!! DON’T SHOW THAT PHOTO!!!!…(stomps off upstairs, twitching tail…)

FROM MOM: Little Miss “I just don’t know what toy I want to play with today” is totally afflicted…maybe not with ADD…but with something else called “FPD” (finicky personality disorder)…hmmmm…maybe Savannah should have the title Sammy has…”One Spoiled Cat”…

Paw pats, Savannah

peeEss: I posted information about an editorial page in our local San Francisco Chronicle paper about progress on feral cat colony control and care, click here…

I had a comment waiting approval from this person: BEWARE OF THIS PERSON IN YOUR COMMENT QUEUES

woodsman001

He had to leave two comments because he ran out of space I guess…it was a hideous rant…I clicked on his contact info and of course, it is locked…he hides…

EXCERPT FROM HIS TWO EXCEEDINGLY LONG COMMENTS:

“FACT: Trap, Neuter, & Release (TNR) is an even bigger abject failure because these man-made ecological disasters cannot be trapped faster than they exponentially breed out of control, and they also continue the cruelly annihilate all native wildlife (from the smallest of prey up to the top predators that are starved to death), and the cats continue to spread many deadly diseases that they carry today — FOR WHICH THERE ARE NO VACCINES AGAINST THEM.”….”The ONLY difference between rats and cats these days is that people who own and love pet-rats aren’t severely mentally unbalanced and trying to hoard feral-rat populations on other people’s public and private properties — while also relentlessly petitioning all their lawmakers to do so. Pet-rat owners, and all other types of pet owners, at least have THEIR sh** together.”

I found his comments offensive and extreme…just sayin’…
