I was hoping that in the last group of comments that showed up yesterday, I would find someone who guessed the exact weight of me, Binga and Boodie combined. But while some of you were close, none of you were closer than two readers who guessed the same number, which was within one ounce of the correct weight! So I will have to resort to my tie breaker.
First off, here is the answer: 29 pounds, 13 ounces.
My friends at Katnip Lounge guessed 29 pounds, 12 ounces! But a longtime reader of my blog, Charlotte, also known as BrucesMom, guessed 29.75 pounds, which works out to… 29 pounds, 12 ounces! Good job, you guys! But now you will have to do one more thing, and hopefully this will decide the winner.
Here is Boodie, waiting to be weighed:
I have already sent emails to both the Katnip Lounge crew and BrucesMom asking them to guess what Boodie weighs. The one that comes closest to Boodie’s actual weight will win my new book

Wow, two good guesses? We’re impressed!!

Excellent guessing. I guessed too high. I am going to say I think Boodie weights 11 pounds, though you didn’t ask me!
Congrats to the two of you for such good guessing. Hope you two don’t guess the same weight on Boodie. Good luck. Hope everyone has a fantastic day.
Wow, we didn’t even come close. Boodie is bootiful!
We guessed too high and we we hope you aren’t insulted! Congratulations to the guessers and many congratulations to all of you on being so slim and trim!
Kool~!!! A tie! ConCats to the 2 guessers and we can’t wait to see who the final winners will be! Good luck to them both!
Wow! A tie! Good luck to the gang at the Catnip Lounge & to Charlotte!
Wow, that is amazing that two got that close! Very impressive! And we are with Mishkat – we also guessed too high, and also hope you were not insulted. We just are terrible at guessing that kind of stuff – we think you are all very nicely sized!
Hi! We don’t see an email…yet…we sent in our guess to your contact address. We’ll check back tomorrow…the Kitties are ALL excited!

We guessed too high – sorry ladies! It’s that beautiful floof that fooled us!
Just to let you know, I have heard from both Brucesmom and the Katnip Lounge crew, and I have a winner! I will make an announcement – and tell you all our weights – tomorrow!
That is some smart guessing, now we’ll see who gets it right!
Ooohhhh a tie! How exciting! Good luck, guys.
Wow, they are pretty smart; good luck to them with beautiful Boodie’s weight=that floof is deceiving!!…Happy day, friends…Calle, Halle, Sukki
Sparkle–you are so talented–with a new book and all! Do you think I can be a star like you? Should I purr and nap about it? Should I make Tommy my ghost writer–even tho she says writes but I never see her really write anything?
Sparkle–you are my hero!!

Thank you, Noir! (blushing) I think any kitty can be a star, but I must warn you – your human can be a help or a hindrance (mine is alternately both!). If you really want stardom, it is up to you to keep your assistant (i.e., your human) up to scratch, so to speak.
Wow! How exciting! We can’t wait to see who wins! Good luck to both!
Hello Sparkle, Binga, & Boodie! Although our guess was off by a pound, we thought you might enjoy a comparison of our 3 kitty weights. Mr. Tigger 23.7 pounds, Lola 9.9 pounds, & Mr. Buddy Bojangles 10.75 pounds, so our grand total is 44.35 pounds! & yes Tigger is on a diet.
Wow, Mr. Tigger is a BIG kitty! He weighs almost as much as Boodie and Binga combined! And they weigh about twice as much as me!
Good luck to both of them!
Ooooh, I can’t wait to see how much that fluffball weighs!! The suspense is killing me!
Can’t wait to see either.
