BlogPaws – Ready or Not, Here I Come!!!

It’s that time of year again when all of us pet people gather to worship our animals in a 3 day ceremony of seminars, flat pets, networking, bonding, learning, eating, and just plain having fun while we hang out with good friends! That’s right – it’s time for the BlogPaws Conference again and this year I will be heading to Salt Lake City!

When I went last year, I was a newbie and it took weeks for the high of meeting all of my fellow bloggers in person to wear off. This year will be no different, with the exception that I already know some of  the bloggers in person, and some I will be meeting for the first time! Either way, I am just so excited and can’t wait for the conference to begin.

You’ll have to pardon the lack of posts while I am gone, but hopefully it will be worth the wait when I come back home with all kinds of great stories to report on. There will also be lots of pictures that I will be sharing and maybe even a tidbit or two of gossip!! I know there will be TONS of kitty swag to bring back, so I need to make sure to bring an extra big suitcase. Speaking of that, hmmm… what to wear, what to wear? Oh yeah, that’s right, it’s me were talking about. I think anyone that knows me, already knows the answer to that question! In case you need a hint, this was me packing last year… That will also be me packing this year. That reminds me, did I even unpack yet from last year?

Getting a little help packing last year - L to R - Jazz, Mia, Peanut, and Zee.

See you all soon and keeping my fingers and paws crossed that we won’t have a repeat of last year at BlogPaws… I had to leave early because of Hurricane Irene!! Oh, and don’t fret… I am still here to remind you from afar to remember to continue voting for the Pettie nominations and the chance to win $10K for a shelter or rescue of your choice. Click here to vote and thank you from all us bloggers that you have been supporting!

  2. Bernadette says:

    I’ll miss seeing all of you!

    Are you sure you didn’t pack a cat? All that leopard print clothing it might be hard to tell…

    • Deb says:

      Oh Bernadette!! I can only hope you are right!! I would love to have one of my kitties with me, although I am certain they would not be quite as thrilled to find themselves in SLC with me! I’ll miss you as well!

  3. posh says:

    I’m loving all of the print.

    Have a great WW!

  4. Cheysuli says:

    Have a safe trip. The Woman doesn’t get in until tomorrow at 4:20 so she’ll probably be getting registered as the opening starts! She’ll be the one with the cool earrings and the Skeezix keds!

  5. Wendy S. says:

    Have a great time at the convention. We’ll all be waiting for you and excited to hear and see the latest.

  6. Have fun (like I need to say that cuz’ I KNOW you will). I can’t wait to hear all about it. I will meet you next year!

  7. meowmeowmans says:

  8. Hi Y’all,

  10. Have a great time!

  11. hey, be sure to send some photos…can’t even imagine what this event must be like…maybe another year…we are too new to even know what to say or do and Mom is way too shy….

    • Deb says:

      Savannah – there will be so many photos and posts after BlogPaws that your head will spin!! Tell your Mom I am actually quite shy myself – many of us bloggers are. But, once you get there, everyone is just so super that the ice is broken very quickly!! Maybe she will decide to come next year, I know we would love to meet her!! xoxo

  12. Deb, enjoy. Bring an extra bag for swag! I wish I could be a fly on the wall but this year kitty palliative care comes first and is subject of our guest post today.
