200th Post Contest!

Our 200th Post is coming up -- no wonder my paws are so calloused and tired! So, I'm putting together some surprises for the kitty who comes closest to guessing the date and time (Eastern Daylight Savings Time). And the winning kitty's bean will get a $10 Artsy Catsy Gift Certificate! Just leave your guess in the comments of this post by Monday, March 31 -- one guess per blog, please.

And, speaking of March 31, that's the last day of our March Madness Fundraisers for Moki, Project H.A.M. and Lilly Lu. We still have some cell phone charms, necklaces & bookmarks left, along with cat greeting cards, flower greeting cards and Earthrights notecards & fine art prints.

We've raised only about $50 each for Moki and Lilly and $35 for Project H.A.M. :-( Thanks to our anonymous benefactor those amounts will be doubled, but we were so hoping to raise more. Moki's and Lilly's beans have already spent thousands of green papers, and they're still sick, so more bills are coming. And the anonymous benefactor is willing to match MUCH more - multiples of $100!

I know all our beans are short of green papers these days, and it's hard to buy a $15 or $40 item ... so I had an idea: What if all us kitties tell our beans that we're willing to give up just one bag of Temptations or a mousie toy they planned to buy, if they would make a small donation for Moki, Project H.A.M. and Lilly? Even if it's just a dollar or two, that adds up, especially since the anonymous benefactor will match your donation!

I'll start it off ... I'm donating the price of 5 bags of All Natural Temptations right now! (My mom says I need to lose some weight anyway.) If it's at all possible for your beans to make a small donation, they can use the PayPal button below.

Everyone, thank you so much for all everything you do to help all the kitties who need it so badly. Your purrs and purrayers are so precious, and would be all that was needed ... if only our vets didn't insist on being paid in green papers.

I wish we could donate more but with Jemima, Zeke and Sushi all going to the v-e-t this week and the dental visits that still need to happen Mom says we just do not have enough green papers right now. Thank you for all you do!

I am going to make a little donation!

Artsy Catsy said...

Oh, Tiger Lily, Penelope, and everyone ... there's no need to apologize, and please, please don't feel badly that you're not able to donate right now! We know how hard it is these days to come up with extra green papers, and your own v-e-t bills must always come first.

Everyone knows how much you give with your hearts and your purrs & purrayers, and that's what really counts!

Hugs,
Rocky
