A New Years Eve Date With ... WAFFLES???

WAFFLES:  Hey Boss! Are you ready for our New Years Eve date?

KATIE:  No one ever said anything about a DATE, Waffles. I don't DATE orange terrorists.


WAFFLES:  Awww, c'mon Boss! I got a new coat with tails and everything.  

KATIE:  Waffles, the LAST thing you need is another tail.


WAFFLES:  But Boss, you're all dressed up. Like for a date and stuff.


KATIE:  Fine. Just don't expect any action when the clock strikes midnight. No touching, no kissing, no –


KATIE:  I KNEW this was a bad idea.


Happy New Years Eve! 
We hope hope you have a wonderful time ringing in the new year. Remember to use catnip responsibly and never nip and drive. Thank you for an awesome 2013!

...I can't believe the last photo of 2013 has you-know-who sniffing my you-know-what.
See you next year!

"Gee Your Coat Is SO SILKY!" SeaBuck's Omega 7 Oil Giveaway!


WAFFLES:  Hey Boss! What's in the bottle?

KATIE:  It's called SeaBuck 7. It's the Omega 7 oil that Glogirly's been adding to our breakfast each morning.



WAFFLES:  You mean she's been burying a bottle in our breakfast? Wow, you could crack a tooth on that thing!

KATIE:  Waffles, don't be ridiculous. She's been adding a few drops of the oil that's INSIDE the bottle to our food. Not the BOTTLE.



WAFFLES:  Phew! I don't want THAT kind of crunchy in my food!  Um, so why are we eating the mega oil stuff?



KATIE:  The nice people at SeaBuck offered their line of Cat supplements for us to try out. When Glogirly learned that one of the benefits of their products was a silkier, shinier coat, I'm pretty sure she said something like, "WOW...Waffles could sure use that! He's not a very good groomer."


WAFFLES:  Whaddaya mean I'm not a good groomer???

KATIE:  Oh, calm down Waffles. It's no big deal. You're just more interested in chasing the red dot that you are in ....well, just about ANYTHING else.



About  the SeaBuck 7 line for Cats

  • The large jug is their daily supplement. About 1/2 ounce daily added to your food provides high levels of omegas 3, 6, 9 and the new leading omega 7 in naturally heathy ratios. 
  • The small bottle contains a tasteless omega 7 oil that promotes a healthy heart and lustrous coat with just a few drops mixed with your food just 2-3 times per week.
  • The skin and coat balm contains just six natural ingredients* and helps to sooth irritated and problem skin. It also helps heal and promote tissue regeneration. It's a great first aid remedy.  (*Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Sea Buckthron Oil, Sunflower Seed Oil, Cocoa Seed Butter, Shea Butter.) 

KATIE:  SeaBuck 7 started out as a supplement for horses after university studies confirmed how it helped with their general health. Everything from ulcers to GI issues, coat, flexibility and endurance were dramatically improved.


WAFFLES:  HORSES???  Cool! I want to be a cowboy when I grow up!

KATIE:  Waffles, I'm not sure the SeaBuck people can guarantee that you'll grow up to be a cowboy. But if you DO, you'll have the silkiest coat of ALL the cat cowboys.




The Verdict
Like many finicky cats, Waffles and I preferred the omega 7 oil drops to the liquid supplement. Glogirly has been regularly adding the oil to our food for about three weeks now. Within mere DAYS, she noticed a difference in both of our coats.

My classic tuxedo coat is naturally soft and silky, and after a few days became even SOFTER and even SILKIER. My vet was so impressed and told me I was one of the silkiest cats she'd ever touched. I told her not to get too used to it... I don't let just anyone touch me.

The truly dramatic difference was with Waffles. He's such a boy and has a more naturally course coat. You could say he's a little rough around the edges. Now let's be clear...I did NOT touch him. But Glogirly did. And she was amazed at how much softer he felt in less than a weeks time.

Not Just a Silky Coat
The power of SeaBuck 7 is not just about shiny lustrous furs. It supports a healthy digestive function and helps maintain a proper gut pH. It also contains a powerful network of antioxidants, promoting long-term health. Learn more about digestive health HERE.

Squeee-full Sunday with Feline Rescue Inc's Kittens

© Jon Bidinger for Feline Rescue Inc.
Hi everyone, Katie here.

We want to introduce you to some very special kitties today. They are living with their momma kitty in one of  Feline Rescue Inc's many foster homes.

It's pretty easy to see that these kittens are special. But it's not just because they're a furry squee-full of cuteness.


Recently we had a Thanksgiving Giveaway here on our blog sponsored by the nice people at Peach Industries. They're the ones that make these wonderful kitty loungers we've all grown to love. The winner of the giveaway received a fun t-shirt for themselves and a kitty lounger to donate to their favorite rescue shelter.


The winner just happened to live in our own backyard here in Minneapolis and they chose Feline Rescue Inc, the shelter that is so very near and dear to our hearts here at GLOGIRLY.  Well the volunteers at Feline Rescue had a wonderful idea.

© Kristin Kaiser for Feline Rescue Inc.
You see, a sweet momma cat named Freya (above) had just given birth to NINE babies. You'd be sticking your tongue out too after nine babies now, wouldn't you?

© Kristin Kaiser for Feline Rescue Inc.
If anyone needed a little R&R time in their own personal kitty lounger, it was Freya! The people at Peach Industries were thrilled to make a special lounger just for her.

But as you can see by the first photo, Freya's furry family has their OWN plan for the lounger!

We want to thank Peach Industries for sponsoring such a special giveaway, Jon Bidinger the amazing foster dad, photographer extraordinaire, Kristin Kaiser and the many amazing volunteers at Feline Rescue. You are all making a difference in the lives of homeless cats. You're our heros

© Kristin Kaiser for Feline Rescue Inc.
Ok, we couldn't resist this last photo of one of Freya's kittens. Go ahead...squee out loud, squee out strong.

Do you have room in your heart and home for one or two or three (!) of these sweet babies? Just contact Feline Rescue for more information on Freya's family.

What Did Santa Katie Get Waffles For Christmas?

KATIE:  Hi everyone, Katie here.  I bet you've been losing sleep over wondering what I gave Waffles for Christmas.


KATIE:  What could I possibly get the *beloved* orange cat who has stolen everything?


WAFFLES:  Hey Boss! Is this for ME??? Really??? I bet it's super coal!  –um, I mean cool! 

KATIE:  Yeah, it's super cool alright.


WAFFLES:  Um, Boss? What am I supposed to do with THESE? 

KATIE:  They're magic reindeer antlers, Waffles. They'll make you fly.


WAFFLES:  I can FLY?????

Christmas Is SO Yesterday

 WAFFLES:  Hey Boss! Look at all these cool Christmas cards we got!


WAFFLES:  What are the chances that all our friends would send us the SAME card? WITH our picture on them too?!

KATIE:  Waffles, those cards aren't FROM our friends. They're FOR our friends.



WAFFLES:  Wow, Boss! Christmas is SO yesterday. You better hurry up and do something about all these cards. 


 KATIE:  Just as soon as I do something about this stupid collar.

Merry Christmas from Katie, Waffles & the Beef Tenderloin

WAFFLES:  Hey Boss! Did you hear? I got BEEF TENDERLOIN yesterday! 


KATIE:  What do you mean you got beef tenderloin? All I got was this lousy jingle collar. Tastes like glitter and bells.

WAFFLES:  Seriouslies? It was just sitting there on the kitchen counter, wrapped up in pretty white paper. It was obviously a present for me.


KATIE:  Waffles, that wasn't wrapping paper, it's butcher paper. You ate it raw??? Did you get caught?


WAFFLES:  Um, NO. Why? Do I look like I told Gloman that you did it?




Dear Friends,

We wish you the merriest of Christmases and the happiest of holidays. From the bottom of our little kitty hearts, we thank you for brightening our days with your visits. We love you so very much!

... Now that the beef tenderloin is history, we've got our sights set on some turkey. Bon appetit!

xoxo,
Waffles & Katie

Merry Christmas Eve Giveaway: Alice Hannah Fashion Accessories for Cat Lovers


Merry Christmas Eve, everybuddy! Waffles here.

While the Boss is busy with preparations for Christmas, (lots and lots of gifts for me I'm sure) I have the honor of sharing a VERY special surprise we have for you kitties today. 

You know ...the Boss and I, we're very lucky cats. And if you're reading this blog, chances are you have a loving forever home of your own too. You know, the kind with a warm bed, with food and treats and toys and a human who loves to play with you. 

How would you like a chance to do something really extra-nice for your human? (I mean besides headbonks and stuff.)




The nice people from Alice Hannah are sponsoring one of the coolest giveaways we've ever had. Alice Hannah is a London-based fashion design company specializing in beautiful accessories (for humans!) 



One of their coolest collections features CATS!

One lucky GLOGIRLY reader, anywhere in the ENTIRE WORLD, will receive the 3-piece Cat Lover's Collection, including a beautiful jacquard kitty scarf with matching gloves and a beret. 


The Boss is modeling the matching hand warmers. They're like gloves but without the fingertips. Very smart-phone friendly. 



All of the pieces are made of a cozy-soft lambs wool blend in heather grey, cream and black with lipstick-red bow accents. 

Alice Hannah surprised us with a couple more of their cattiest fashion accessories for Glogirly to try out.


Oh my COD! Is it a Cat? Is it a human? It's Glogirly in her new Cat Woman Beanie! I wonder if those big blue eyes give her super powers ...and I wonder what the Boss is going to think of those ears! She's already worn it to the grocery store and made the checkout people smile.



This is MY purrsonal favorite. It's the uber-long Cat Scarf. On one end is his head and ears and arms and stuff. And on the other end there's the back legs and tail. I especially like his button eyes. ...though Glogirly says I should leave them alone so I don't blind him or something.

Everything you see and more is available on the Alice Hannah website. Though they're based in the UK, they ship worldwide all the time. Glogirly took a peek at their prices too and thought they were very reasonable – savvy catty fashion at smart prices. Plus, there will be some great discounts starting on Boxing Day...which is the day after Christmas this side of the pond!

Good luck everybuddy! And Merry Christmas Eve to you and your families. ♥
