Lazy Caturday and Zee & Zoey’s Chronicle Connection Nominated for Dog Time’s 2013 Pettie Awards for “Best Designed Blog”
First of all – thank you so much for all the awesome birthday wishes for Kizmet that you left for him on the 4th of July! He was completely overwhelmed by your kindness and wishes he had thumbs so he could personally send you all a thank you note. Since that is not the case, not to mention that he has a limited attention span and would forget to write them to begin with, please accept his humble thanks via me, his human slave.
Now that the festivities are over, we finally have the rest of the summer to just kick around and be lazy.… well, that, and to wear you all out by asking you to vote for us in the category of “Best Designed Blog” to win a Pettie Award! That’s right – thanks to all of you for your kindness and support, we have been nominated for a Pettie and have a chance to win some desperately needed money for our newly founded non-profit, Pawsitively Humane, Inc. that we will be launching with Christine Michaels of Riverfront Cats this summer (and a special congratulations shout out to Christine who has been nominated for two Pettie Awards – Best Blog Post and Best Rescue Blog!!)
To show our appreciation for all of your support, I reached out to the Zee/Zoey gang so that they could thank you and as you can well imagine, it did not go too well. Please don’t take it personally, but apparently they already have a full day of napping booked and for them the lazy days of summer are a literal term. For me, not so much… Sigh… as always, they leave everything up to me…
Anyhow, it really is as easy as clicking this link once a day until July 31st to vote for your favorite bloggers. So many of our friends have been nominated and we wish everyone the best of luck. Just please try to vote quietly as our kitties have asked to not be disturbed…
Harley has been napping since 2007…
Mr. Jazz is looking as handsome as ever before he settles for his nap.
“Excuse me,” says Mia. “Didn’t we ask to not be disturbed?”
Zoey is always willing to pose for a photo before she naps.
Peanut? Are you in there?!!
“Hey,” says Rolz. “I believe Mia told you to step away… this is serious nap time you are interrupting.”
“Fine… you may gaze at my handsomeness, says Zee, but please do it quietly.”
Kizmet is still completely tuckered out from his birthday bash!
Have a wonderful Caturday all and thank you again for the support – it means the world to me to know that Zee and Zoey’s blog can bring a bit a brightness to your day!
Congratulations and good luck! Checked out the others in your category and it is a no-brainer…….you should win! Good luck!
Thank you Caren… I know better than to assume anything, but thank you so much and I appreciate the vote of confidence! 🙂
Hi Deb,
Congrats too! You deserve this nomination. I believe that you’re going to win. Your blog is one of the best! 😀
Congratulations once again on your nomination!
Thank you Ingrid and congratulations to you as well!
Congrats on the great nomination and we already voted for you in this 24 hour period!!!
Whoo Hoo, Brian!! Check that off your list of things to do today! Thank you!
Look at all those pretty babies. Adorable. Congrats. I voted for you and my other favorites.
Thank you so much Sue!!
I guess I’m just one of those weirdo’s….I love to vote….especially for people that aren’t politicians but actually caring, decent people that don’t have an agenda…..people that prefer the company of animals over people (sorry…that last one would be ME – lol).
Just my way of saying….you have my vote Deb!
It’s not so much the voting, Toni, as the process of having to ask everyone all month long!!! Thank you for your support and I can assure you I have no agenda other than caring, which you are right, is very refreshing!!!
Deb, congrats on being a finalist. We voted and will every day! Loved all the pics today but Mr. Jazz stole my heart.
I love the picture of Mr. Jazz too, Layla. He has the look of such a wise, old soul. Congratulations on your nomination as well and good luck!!
We’ve voted today and will do our best to do so each day. Loved the caption about Harley napping since 2007. Can’t believe we missed Kizmet’s B’day. happy Bleated Birthday greetings to him. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
MOL Kitties Blue… Harley is a very seasoned napper!!! Thank you for the vote!
