Thankful Thursday

September 1, 2011 By: Sparkle Cat39 Comments

You guys are PAWsome!My readers — meaning you — get my paw of approval today, because if you scroll down just a little and look in my right hand sidebar, you’ll see that you raised $150 for A Call 4 Paws. You have helped this group in their mission to rescue ferals and strays off the streets of New Jersey and give them a new life. This is over and above the Pettes prize money that went to Animal Advocates and Forever Home Feline Ranch (these two groups got $500 each). If I am nominated next year in any Petties categories, I promise to do something similar to help a rescue in addition to whatever goes on at the Petties. And, as always, you will have a voice in choosing who gets the donation money. I figure that if you are voting for me, you should also choose who benefits.

Now I am going to be a little bit selfish and ask for you to vote for me again — in the CBS Los Angeles Most Valuable Blogger Awards! I am one of the finalists in the Lifestyle Category. The prize isn’t that big of a deal — I think it is a $50 Amazon gift certificate or something like that — but I think it would be really cool if I beat out a bunch of human blogs! I am, after all, a “local cat made good.” You can vote every day until September 9, and I’ve put the logo on my right hand sidebar (in fact, it is right under the ChipIn widget), or you can click on it below:

Vote for me here!

I would be really thankful if you did!

    How super great that some of the green papers raised are helping New Jersey ferals! Just last week, our Property Manager called animal control (gasp!) on a couple of ferals living in the tiny strip of hedges behind our block of flats. We can only purray they were treated kindly and “s-n-r”, if not found furrever homes…*sigh*
    BUT OF COURSE We are going to vote for you, Sparkle! Your bloggie is one of the bestest in the Blogosphere, and have most hoomin blogs beat by a mile!

    have a very good Last of the Summer Holiday weekend!
    Blessings,
    Rose and the Royals

    I voted! I, too, want to thank everyone who donated to A Call 4 Paws, which is not a large organization. It’s run by a schoolteacher and her son and they rescue cats and dogs in the Hudson County area. TW and I donate to them and wish we could do more. In fact, she brought lots of stuff from Blogpaws to donate to them.

    And thank you Sparkle. I received my kitty planter today and my husband laughed and dubbed it “cute”. I was going to make a donation on the “A Call 4 Paws” widget as a thank you to you but I see it is closed and won’t let me do that. So I promise next time you are raising money for a worthy cause I shall make a donation.

    I have voted for you on the Most Valuable Blogger site yesterday and today and will continue to do so every day!

    Thanks again!
