How about a different type of giveaway to celebrate Spring AND Easter?

There are a lot of giveaways out there!  Great ones!!!  And I've entered several in hopes of winning something for "her".  But ,well, it just hasn't happened yet.  I'll keep trying though - always important to keep "her" happy...you know if "she" isn't happy, well let's just say the tuna doesn't make it to my bowl ;)  So while I'm working on making her happy, I realized that a lot of you out there are trying to make your "her's" happy as well.  It's a tough job sometimes I know!  And right now with all of "them" craving spring so badly....well what's a cat to do?!

We've got our work cut out for us!  And it might be an unsurmountable dilemma for some, but I came up with a plan!  I got online and ordered up a few things.  (Not to worry "she" won't see the bill in the mailbox for several weeks ;)  I also told "her" I needed a few things made for my furriends and *poof* they were made.  No questions asked. I have "her" trained. Yep, sure do!  Although, I need to mention though that it took FOREVER.

So anyway, I thought that since "they" all want springtime, like last week would have been fine, I thought something to grow would be good, right? Even if it is for us, it's something to grow. And then some good smelly stuff for them.  And us.  And a few ready made snacks.  You didn't think I wouldn't have our best interest at heart here did you?

So here's what I've pulled together:


Organic wheat grass kit, handmade catnip bunny, Temptations (aka kitty crack), and a handmade lavender sachet for your special girl.  Stuffed with love into a handmade burlap sack trimmed with vintage lace!  It's a humble offering compared to lots of other giveaways, but cats don't need a whole lot do we?

Oh yeah, almost forgot - I've put together five of these!  So there will be FIVE lucky felines!  That's assuming there are at least five entries.  If not, well.... someone's going to have to sign up with Catnip Anon within a day of package receipt.

Entries are pretty standardized to blogging, but here's a refresher:

For one entry, comment on this post and be sure to leave your name (that's us cats)

For another entry, become a follower of my blog and please comment to let me know you have.

For yet another entry, post about my giveaway on your blog and comment again to let me know you did.
  You are also welcome to use the graphic below to announce the giveaway. Be sure and include a link back to the giveaway post.
Here comes Zoe Cottonfuzz, hopping down the bunny trail, hippity, hoppity Easker's on it's way....and so is Spring! 
So while it may seem a bit early to be thinking of Easker, "she" will be busy and gone to the Spring Open House at Antiques in Old Town,, so I decided this week to be the perfect time to post the giveaway - no need to bring her attention to my spending habits....


"She" will be back on Sunday, so entries will be accepted through Sunday, March 21st.  Winners will be announced Monday, March 22nd, sometime after I've had my afternoon nap.  


Happy Spring efurryone!!

Romeo, you are parting with some of your catnip? Gosh, under all that ferocious outer is such a soft and mushy inner! Son No. 2 and family have cats, and they would be totally delighted to receive your catnip bunny. And me, well I love the look of that burlap sack. So please keep all four legs crossed for me!

I am a new follower. New because I just discovered your blog today. Sheesh, I wish I'd have discovered your blog sooner so I could be an "old" follower. "She" (Puddles) is in the corner pouting with that bottom lip stuck out all mad at me for now knowing you were out there and following sooner. I try!!

Puddles can't resist telling all of her friends about this so she gave a shout out on my sidebar. She says if she's going to be bouncing of a wall if she wins her friends may as well. I think I overheard her telling one how maybe they could learn to Krump and Break Dance on this stuff?!
