Nani's a Winner!

A Big Thank You to all my CB, Catster and Facebook friends for voting Nani "Best Cat Photo" of the week on PhotoWow.com. We won a super 4 panel Pop Art print valued at $300 and we are purring with joy! What a wonderful way to honor such a sweet kitty and as soon as it arrives, I'll take a photo of it and post it for all her "fans" to see!

This is the photo they used to do the Pop Art print:



And this is a Pop Art print by an artist I found on MySpace:

Help Nani win a photo contest, pleeze!

We would like to ask all our blogging friends to help Nani win a photo contest!

Sweet Nani recently became a Angel cat, when at the age of 14 her severe heart problem which was diagnosed when she was only a year old took her from us suddenly, but we have sweet memories of her and lots of photos!

The photo we entered in the contest at Photowow.com is same one of her wearing the pink wig (that is also my avatar photo). We think Nani looks a little like Barbra Streisand in the photo and we are hoping she wins this weeks contest, which runs from Wednesday February 17th at 1:00pm PST and ends Tuesday February 23rd at 1:00pm PST.

You can only vote once from the same computer so if you have multiple computers, Smart Phones etc...just like when all our furrends helped Coco become Cat President in a last minute landslide vote, you could honor Nani's memory and help her win The Best Pet Photo Contest this week and we would win a beautiful digital art painting of her!

Here's the link to vote

You have to vote for each pet photo to be able to move to the next one, and give Nani a "10" and we'd be furry grateful!

Thanks!

Snow Days Staycation...

Well, today is my last day of "Staycation" and while I groused about shoveling snow, I enjoyed sleeping in, painting my bathroom vanity, relining the shelves, tossing out some makeup and stuff I've not used in a while, playing with the kittens and watching movies (my favorites for the week were The Notebook, and The Grocers Son). And while I'll have to take some vacation time to make up for my lost hours at work...it's been a nice stay-at-home time for me.

Friends (my petsitters) came by today with Valentine and birthday cards and presents--a Valentine brownie from Julia Childs Cookbood, Coconut and Lemongrass bath gel and lotion and Firefly Raspberry and Peach infused vodka minis, so I know what my beverage will be tonight, as well as dessert! I may just have to have a second shower today, just to enjoy the scents!

I took lots of photos this week and before I head back to work tomorrow, thought I'd better post some of them...you can click on them to biggify.

Bird House

Til I get around to downloading my snow pix...here's a cute commercial about...a bird house!
