Semi-Wordless Wednesday: BlogPaws Nose-to-Nose Announcement and What Color is My Cat?

This was the dress image I saw courtesy of Tumblr. No matter which way I look, the dress is white and gold (or possibly a lavender and gold). What color do you see?
Like a gazillion other people, I too have been caught in the recent controversy of “what color is that dress – black and blue or white and gold?” From the image I saw, to me the dress is 100%, hands-down, clearly white and gold. However, I happened to catch The Ellen DeGeneres Show yesterday and she had the owner of the dress on the show, wearing the actual dress, and it was 100%, hands-down, clearly black and blue. I’ve always been pretty good with colors, so all of this got me to thinking… just what color is my cat Jazmine? Is she golden-orange and white or something else? What do you all see??

I always thought Jazmine was a pretty ginger and white cat… Maybe all this time I was wrong and she really is black and blue! What do you all think?
As most of us in the cat blogosphere know, Wednesday’s are reserved for light fare – typically a couple of pictures and very few words. When I had written my post for today it was created in that tone – just something fun and humorous, complimented by a stunning picture of my cat Jazmine. I had no idea BlogPaws would be announcing their nominations for the Nose-to-Nose Social Media Awards, so you can imagine my surprise when I found out Zee and Zoey’s blog was nominated in the category of “Best Cat Blog.” But that’s what cat blogging is all about at Zee and Zoey’s – from the silly to serious and everything in-between, we try our best to be a blog that embraces our passion, love, and dedication to all things cat related.
From the bottom of my heart, I thank everyone for their support over the years – your friendship and readership means the world to me. And special congratulations to my peers, friends, and colleagues who have also been honored with a nomination – please click here for the list of nominees and I can’t wait to see you all at BlogPaws this May where the winners will be revealed!

Da Tabbies – as usual, I think you have the best answer! Of course Jazmine is spotted!! Thank you for the MEGA CONGA RATZ!!!
Congrats on being nominated. Your kitty looks like she has some layers of colors like my one ginger cat. Like orange, like a lighter orange or tan color(not really sure what color I should call it), and the white. I have a ginger that depending how you look at him in the light has orange, tans, flakes of white or black you can’t see unless you look close and a foot that has some black fur on it. I think they are unique that their colors look different in the light.
Sue – I would agree with you that the lighting plays a big part in the coloring! Thank you for the congrats!
Concats on the nomination!! We are fairly certain Jasmine is ginger and white. MOL
The dress looks like a purply-blue and black to me. And Jasmine is definitely orange and white. 😉
Congrats on being named a finalist. I am truly honored to be among such great company.
Island Cat Mom
Island Cats – I just don’t see how you get those colors from the picture I have posted! I can see why this issue is driving everyone crazy!! Thanks for the concats and many back to you!!! I am so happy for you!
Congratulations on your nomination! I think the dress looks blue and brown, I guess I am color blind.
Thank you Ellen and at this point, who knows what color that darn dress is!
Concatulations on your nomination ! Purrs

Concats on your nomination! The dress looks a sort of lavender blue and dark brown to me.
I see lavender too, Flynn! Thank you for the concats!
Definitely white and gold!!! Many ConCats on your nomination, Deb. Very well deserved 🙂
Glad you see white and gold too, Carolyn and thank you for the con cats!
HUGE CONCATULATIONS DEAR FURIEND!!! Your post made me laugh big time!!! Wishing you the BEST of luck!!!
We say White and Marmalade which is much more attractive than Gold or Orange. MOL
Congrats on being in the running! Yay! And for the new little one in the family!

I thought the dress looked white and gold, too! Congratulations on being named a finalist in the Nose-to-Nose awards. We are so happy for you! 🙂
Super concats on the nomination. The other nominees are friends of mine but I’m so rooting for you. While I often don’t have time to read a long blog, I love your writing and try to catch up.
When I saw the dress on Twitter, it was definitely black and blue. When I saw it on your home page, it was definitely gold and white. When I saw it on the turn page here, it is black and lavender. Pop is right. It’s irredescent and changes colors.
Thank you CK – there is no doubt if the category was “Blog With the Longest Posts,” I would win paws down! All of the nominees are so different in style, so it will be interesting to see what happens – thank you for your support and I appreciate knowing you enjoy my writing. I love yours as well – very satirical which I really enjoy.
