Cinco de Katie



Hi everyone, Senorita Katie here.

To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, mi amiga, Cathy Keisha and I are starting up our own Mariachi band.  We're off to a rocky start though.  Neither of us can carry a tune and I keep chewing on the guitar strings. CK, well she can't stop knocking around the maracas.  It's quite a sight.

What? They're filled with the illicit 'Vine' she speaks of? 

Niparita's for everyone!


Important Announcement
There's just a couple days left to nominate your favorite blogs for the BlogPaws Nose-to-Nose Awards.

It's the ONLY awards program where pet bloggers (and pet people who "microblog" on Facebook and Twitter) are judged by a panel of distinguished professionals on their expertise, creativity and performance in one or more of TWELVE categories. That's a whole dozen different awards!

ANYONE can nominate and ANYONE can win!  You can nominate as many different bloggers as you'd like in as many categories as you like.  You can even nominate yourself!  About the only thing you can't do is nominate a dog for the Best Cat Blog.  ha!

Nominations Close Sunday May 6, 11:59 PM MT

Click HERE to nominate your favorite blogs!

One of the coolest things about these awards is that you don't have to choose between one, two, or even three blogs. You can nominate ALL of your faves and let the judges decide. You can nominate as many blogs as you want AND you can nominate blogs in more than one category. It's not a popularity contest either. It doesn't matter if a blog has 1 nomination or 100 nominations. They will all be judged equally.

We've already nominated a bunch or our furriends.  If you have any questions about the process, just send us an email - glogirl@visi.com.

Happy Nominating!

  2. I love that we can nominate whoever we want, but the judging have nothing to do with how popular a blog is! That means that smaller blogs have as good a chance as the bigger ones.

  6. What a lovely way to wake up and celebrate Cince de Mayo!!Such a stunning girl cat band! We must find you an agent and get a contract, pronto!!

    We love that the "Nose to Nose" contest is not based on numbers like some of the other awards. It really is hard for some of the newer bloggers to have a fair shot otherwise! Good luck to all!!
