Great Big CWA Swag Bag Giveaway!

November 18, 2013 By: Sparkle Cat96 Comments

Finally I get to keep something decent!

Look at all this swag from the Cat Writers Association conference a couple of weeks ago! Every year my human comes home from this conference with all this awesome cat stuff — and then we only get to keep one or two things. So I put my paw down this time and said for once I want to stop being gypped would like to share just a little bit more in this amazing bounty. So we went through everything so we could pick what we thought we should keep, and what should be in the giveaway.

Yes, there are already some in the cupboard

I am a big fan of Greenies! Everykitty knows this… but we already have some here. So I said we could include this bag in the giveaway.

These are loads of fun!

I love Pawbreakers too, but yeah, there are probably about four of them rolling around the house (including one my human put in the Play Circuit). So I reluctantly gave this one up too.

Take my puzzle feeders... please!

I think Binga was a little traumatized by her experience with the DIY treat toy, because she practically begged my human to put these puzzle feeders in the giveaway.

What a bummer, to have to pose with these and NOT get them!

Giving up the toys was the hardest part! I decided I could do without these two since I have similar toys in my toy chest. Now if only my human would pull those toys out a little more often…

I guess these will do for the cat who has everything

This is what I decided to give away keep! It’s actually a respectable assortment of treats and toys. I got to keep the Stella and Chewy’s coupon because I let the sample bag go into the giveaway. I don’t know why my human kept the Febreze Pet Odor Eliminator… it must be because of the dog since we kitties always smell awesome!

Pretty wonderful haul, isn't it?

So here is what is left — lots of great treats, toys and some surprises! There is even a CD of music for kitties! If the winners have a kitten in their family, I will include the kitten collar we got along with the adult cat collar.

To enter this giveaway, comment below and say you did on the Rafflecopter widget. Because of the weight of this package and shipping cost, I will have to limit my entries to US readers only — or you international readers can enter and give me the name of a US friend or rescue if you win! If you are having a problem with the Rafflecopter widget, say so and I will enter you manually. The giveaway ends at midnight November 25 — good luck!

I know you were probably wondering

And yes, Boodie got to keep her favorite toy.

    Dear Sparkle,
    Rafflecopter annoys my owner. She doesn’t want to get caught up in twitter. Says there are too many twits already.
