This Has Very Little to Do With Me

January 16, 2011 By: Sparkle Cat36 Comments

Hm. This looks pretty fancy!

Remember how my human went to the Cat Writers Conference a couple of months ago and brought home some awards for me? And I sort of mentioned off-handedly that she also won a couple of awards herself? Well, one of the awards had a trophy to go with it that wasn’t ready for her at the conference. In fact, she thought maybe there wasn’t a trophy at all. She didn’t care — she was honored enough to just win the award in the first place! But a few weeks later, something did show up on our doorstep:

My human was impressed!

The article that won the award was about adopting shelter kittens, and while I think that is a very worthy thing to write about, I wonder why she has to use my blog to show off her trophy! But I guess I will let her. She doesn’t win awards very often. I am the main award-winner in the family.

Now go find another contest for ME to enter!

P.S. Boodie needs lots more votes in the Bissell contest! U.S. residents can vote once a day!

    Congrats to your mom, Sparkle! It was very thoughtful of you to let her post about her award! You look especially gorgeous in the last pic (I mean you ALWAYS look gorgeous, but the award really brings out the green in your eyes) 🙂

    Well, Sparkle, I suppose we do need to be big-hearted when it comes to occasionally allowing our people to have their moment too!

    Purrs,

    Sparkle and your Human!
    Yous guys deserve that award! By the way, the new kitten at our house, the brat Kozmo came from the Humane Society. He and his littermates were left on the doorstep of a petstore when they was just 4 weeks old!
    Keep up the good work!
