Farm Cat Friday - Exciting News

We Farm cats would like to share some FANTASTIC news.
We can hardly sit still it's so big.

We are FULL of excitement.
Can't you tell?
The publicist keeps telling us to CLAM DOWN!

Sherpa is especially antsy.
He's just so tense he can't relax!
We HAVE to share the news!

What news you ask?
Why the BIG, BIG NEWS!

Farm Cat Friday - Harry and Sherpa Chillax Thanks to Katie and Waffles

Harry and Sherpa have a new place to sleep.
NO! Not at another Farm sillies!
They won a Peach Industries Kitty Lounger from Katie and Waffles at Glogirly.com!
They are very excited!

In truth, it's really Harry who rules the lounger - he just lets Sherpa "borrow" it now and again. Mostly when Harry is out eating mousie brains.

I'll let him meow you all about it.
Take it away Harry!

Whaaaaa?
You maaaain' at me?

WHAT?!
I have an audience!?!

Let me stretch a minute and I'll get to it.
Sheesh! Let a cat wake up.
OK - first off I would like to meow my thanks to Katie and Waffles. I LOVE my new lounger. It is THE BEST. The publicist has stuff all over the yurt for us kitties and I never slept on anything. It drove her crazy! All part of my devious plan of course. But the minute she set up this lounger it was MINE, ALL MINE!

It is so very comfortable. Just the right size for me.

I can even do my cat yoga on it if I want.
Do I not look blissful?

I even brought my favorite toy up on it so I could play and lounge at the same time.

~KITTIES - do not try this unless you are experienced. It is TRICKY!~

Then I napped.

I love napping.

(You are not the only one Spitty!)

It is true that I sometimes let my brother Sherpa use my lounger when I am not around.

I am a nice brother.

I can share.

The publicist said I even had to let Stinky and Pumpkin have a try too but erm, no comment. I did let Sherpa on MY lounger at the same time I was on my lounger.

For the publicist.

OK.

I think we did our bit.

Right?

Can he go now?

Please?

Srsly.

I really, really, really like my lounger. As you can tell it's very strong. It can hold the both of us. I weigh 8lbs and Sherpa weighs 12lbs and I'm sure it could hold more. The fabric cover can go in the wash to get rid of all of that obnoxious orange fur be cleaned.  The publicist likes it because it's eco-friendly and she really likes the pretty colors. It goes with the yurt. The loungers are also available in other colors. You can see them all HERE.

The lounger came in a really cool burlap bag. 

IT'S HUGE!

It is very useful for carrying things around.

Like books....or Sherpas.

Bwameowhahahahaha!

I thank Katie, Waffles, Glogirly and Peach Industries for giving me such a comfortable and stylish place to sleep. (You do know that Glogirly did the redesign on the publicist's blog. She does EXCELLENT work. Check her out at Glogirly Design)

Now if they could only do something about Sherpa.....

HELP My Friends Monday

Today I am doing something a little bit different.
I am re-introducing you to two of my friends and asking for your help.
You remember Sparkle and Katie?
They are two of my kitty friends and they are in a battle for Cat Ruler of the World with 4 other kitties.

Of course we all know that GOATS will be ruling the world but that is neither here nor there regarding this post.

The Chronicles of Zee and Zoey is sponsoring the Vote for Cat Ruler of the World and you can go there to see all of the details. The big Vote starts tomorrow on September 11th and runs through September 14th.

The big winners in this contest are shelter cats.

That's right. Shelter cats because all of the Catidates are campaigning for a different shelter.

Sparkle is campaigning for Tabby's Place - a shelter for special, special needs kitties. You can read about them by clicking on Sparkle's name above.

Katie is campaigning for the Blind Cat Rescue - a peaceful place for blind cats to live until they find their forever home. You can read about it by clicking Katie's name above.

You can read about the other kitties choice of rescue on the Zee and Zoey site.

The shelter prizes are:

5000 nutritious meals from Halo and FreeKibble.com to the winning shelter and 1000 meals to all runner up shelters, 2000 pounds of absorbent, natural whole-kernel corn litter fromWorld’s Best Cat Litter and 25 Trial Kits for each shelter to give away to new cat owners who have adopted a pet, a $250.00 financial donation and two cases of any choice of odor product, stain & odor product, or litter spray to the winning shelter and a spray bottle odor assortment to runner up shelters from Zero Odor, a $250 financial donation from PetPlan Insurance, an exclusive offer from NVR Miss Litterbox – for each limited edition “Cat Ruler of the World” litter box purchased, $10.00 of the proceeds will be donated to the winning shelter, and, a special offer fromZee and Zoey themselves – for each copy of their book purchased, The Chronicles of Zee and Zoey, $5.00 of the proceeds will be donated to the winning shelter!!

So you can see that all of the shelters will win from this great campaign! 

It is going to be hard for me to choose between my friends but I will because I want the shelter cats to get all of that good stuff. This is why I decided to do a HELP my Friends Monday post instead of a MEET my Friends Monday post - so that maybe some you could go and vote to help the shelter kitties.

All of us Happy Goats and Farm Cats would appreciate it.

Meet My Friends Monday - Katie and Glogirly

It is Monday and time to meet more of my friends!
This Monday is also full of award announcements too!

But first I would love for you to meet Katie a very lovely tuxedo kitty and her human, Glogirly!

Katie and Glogirly just got back from BlogPaws where Katie received a very stylish new wardrobe. She is an excellent modelcat.

Much better than I would be (not that I am a cat, heh). I do not wear clothes. I have my limits. Pearls is as far as I go. But Katie rocks her catfits.

Katie (as well as a LOT of my friends - I will tell you about them at the end of this post) has been nominated for a Pettie Award for Best Blog Post. I have been voting for my friends and as you can see I have a widget on my blog to make it easy for you to vote too! You can log in with your facebook account or with email. The winners get to make a donation to a shelter so it is a very good cause. As Sherpa the Farm cat will maaaa to you NO cat wants to live in a shelter!

But back to Katie and her adventures with Glogirly - they have created the very entertaining Real Housecats of the Blogosphere movies and I am sure that you will all love them. So go over and maaaaa "hi" to Katie and Glogirly on their blog. I'm sure you will be entertained.


Katie and Glogirly even gave ME an award! Isn't that nice?! They gave me the One Lovely Blog Award. I'm sure they made that choice on a day that WASN'T AbbyDay. Bwamaaahahaha. I thank them very much for recognizing me. 

As for the Petties - so many of my friends are nominated! It's very exciting!


Sparkle is nominated for Best Blog Post
Daisy the Curly Cat is nominated for Funniest Blog
Your Daily Cute is nominated for Funniest Blog


I am very excited for ALL of my friends. I am asking you all if you have a few minutes to vote so that a very deserving shelter can get some monies to help kitties like Sherpa the Farm cat find a good home.


I hope you enjoyed meeting another one of my friends and learning the exciting news about the Petties!
