I am really excited about what came in the mail for me! It’s a symbol of my high professional standing!
It’s a Cat Writers’ Association mug! I am a cat and a writer, so it was clearly meant for me.
Because of my prominence as both a cat and a writer, I am pleased to call this mug my own.
This is the logo for the Cat Writers’ Association. You might be able to tell that it was designed by my friend Katie’s human, Glogirly.
Glogirly put the mug design together on a whim, so you might say I got the prototype. I just want to add that it is an honor to be a member of such an awesome organization. We cats who write should have our own group so we can support and learn from each other!
Wait a minute! You mean the Cat Writers’ Association isn’t run by cats? It’s made up of humans who write about cats? And the mug belongs to my human, not me? But that is so wrong! All these humans in the Cat Writers’ Association would be nothing if not for us kitties! Nothing, I tell you!
And all this time I thought my human was going to their conferences as my representative.
By the way, my swag giveaway from the most recent CWA conference will start Monday!

Great mug, Sparkle. You just let your human THINK that it’s really hers and she can borrow it 😉
Well done you!!
I hope your human at least lets you drink her water out of that mug. It’s the least she can do, right? I mean, you ARE her material for the writing after all.
I think it would have been much better with that logo on a catbowl


XOXO
well, shoot! who knew that the Cat Writer’s Association wasn’t made up of cats?!?!? we’re crushed! 😉 we wonder if Boodie didn’t have the inside scoop and was waiting for you to be cheated, Sparkle…she does look a little smug in that picture…
That is a really cool mug tho. Great design! Pip says she wants one for her coffee 😀

Sparkle, YOUR Mug of Merit needs to be kept full of treats 24/7!
Truth be known Sparkle, other humans only care about the cats those human cat writers write ABOUT…they remember the cats, not the humans who used thumbs to write about cats…just an observation…heh…heh…that npmug is totally yours
Love your expressions, Sparkle! Boodie is probably wondering where the treats are and if the mug is some kind of weird cat toy. And yes, the mug is yours–Cat Rule #506–All things belong to the cat!
Allie: oh Sparkle, how SHOCKING! Utterly horrific! No wonder you look so stunned!!
Is that going ta be yer new water-mug? It looks really cool!
If your Human had any real respect and consideration, she’d put half and half, or some other favored beverage, in that mug and offer it to you as the servant she is.
instead, she’ll prolly put coffee or something (gin?) in it and use it her own self. Poser.
That is so wrong!
OMC! I was gonna ax why I—a writing cat—wasn’t in there until you dropped the bombshell. Boodie couldn’t care less. She’s probably bummed cos there’s no food in the box.
Sparkle, I am shocked! Of course the mug must be yours.
Humans want to believe they control things.
Without cats there would be no CWA 😉
If your human insists that it is a human organization,
poop in the mug 😈

Your expressions are worth millions! That’s all I can say – I’m laughing my socks off.
Great mug and beautiful photos, gorgeous Sparkle, but we especially love the second to last photo=that made us all smile!MOL…Happy weekend, sweet friends…kisses…Calle, Halle, Sukki, Mommy Cat, Daddy Cat
Glogirly is so talented. We think your mom is totally wrong. That mug is definitely yours. We guess it would probably be okay if you let her borrow it just so she can feel good about herself. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
Very nice mug Sparkle. Finders keepers. So it’s yours.


What? The Cat Writers Association is NOT run by cats? Where’s the logic in that???
Humans can be so disappointing… and so unfair!
Purrs,
The Chans
Sparkle…we all decree. That IS your mug and you take it right now!
That mug is pretty pawsome. But we agree, it’s a bit of a rip off that it’s not truly a CAT organization! Hmpf. The nerve of hoomins, we must say.
Now I am really putting my paw down and telling her she can’t join. When you said it was all about us, I thought, well maybe she should but then… sigh. Who needs another human organization?
ok so where is MY mug? 😉
Wait a second… if Cat Food, Cat Treats, Cat Toys and Cat Trees are all things The Cat owns and uses, isn’t the Cat Writers Association then also YOUR writers association? It’s definitely your mug.
It looks really cool, Sparkle!!! Thanks for the nice shout-out!
(p.s. it’s a collector’s item now, though. We had to remove it from our Zazzle shop)
xo
Katie
🙁
What??!! We don’t get one!!??
Cool mug but clearly someone is mistaken about who is the cat writers. Silly humans always think it’s about them.
Pawsome! I say take ownership and put your paw in that mug any time the human tries to use it! eventually she will get the message 🙂
That does stink Sparkle, that the mug doesn’t belong to you. What is wrong with those people. It is definitely the cats that do all the writing. What would those humans have to write about if it wasn’t for us cats. Hope the next present is for you. Take care.
That is some mug shot Sparkle!
Love the mug, Sparkle!
Purrz!
Selina
Love the last 2 photos!
Sparkle, we think your human should let you drink milk out of YOUR mug! 😉
I love that expression on your face… The second to the last photo. 😛
That mug is so, so awesome! Truffles and I are going to order one the minute we hear if the CWA accepted our application 🙂
That mug is yours, Sparkle, and it should be filled with those Liv-a-Little treats!
Of course the CWA is run by cats as we don’t consider the humans are clever enough to do it.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Sparkle remember this, if not for us humans would just be sitting in front of ‘puters playing solitaire. So enjoy your cup, Sparkle.
Purrs,
Jasmine, Joey, Eddie & Rosie
You are so right, Sparkle. Without us they would have nothing to write about.
No, Sparkle, the mug is yours& the CWA is run by cats! Hoomans don’t have the intelligence necessary! Happy Furday!
