WAFFLES: Uh, hello Boss? Come in, Boss?
KATIE: I read you, Waffles. What's your 20? Over.
WAFFLES: 20? What do your mean? Like chickens? I haven't seen 20 chickens, have you?
KATIE: No, Waffles. Not CHICKENS. Your 20 is your location. Where are you? Over.
WAFFLES: How come you keep saying 'over'? We're just getting started, aren't we?
KATIE: Waffles, hurry up and get down here. We've got a winner to announce. Over.
WAFFLES: Did somebody win a chicken dinner?
KATIE: Waffles! Last I looked, KFC was not a sponsor of our blog. So enough already with the CHICKEN. Over.
WAFFLES: You can never have enough chicken, Boss.
KATIE: *sigh* Over.
Winner, Winner, Splendid Beast Awesome Oil Painting Winner!
Congratulations to Nancy Blue Moon and her kitty, Rascal. They are the lucky winners of our Splendid Beast giveaway!
Rascal, Nancy's beloved tabby-buddy, has been missing for a few months now. Though Nancy is heartbroken and misses him terribly, she prays he was taken in by someone who just might see one of the many ads and flyers she's posted. Nancy describes her Rascal as a sweet kitty that can win you over with just one look and a tiny meow. Oh, and it looks like he's a napping champion too.
We're keeping them both in our thoughts and pray for Rascal's safe return.
Splendid Beast is Helping Shelter Cats
Our friends at Splendid Beast are making a difference in the lives of harder-to-adopt pets in the most unique and beautiful way through their
Splendid Friends program. Currently they're working with
Minnesota's Feline Rescue, a shelter near and dear to our hearts. Every two weeks, they choose an older or special needs cat who's been waiting to be adopted.
The hope is that the portrait will help the shelter to promote adoptions, especially of those cats, who for one reason or another, are harder to find homes for. Then when the cat is adopted, their portrait goes home with them!
Who Decides What Kind of Portrait They'll Paint?
YOU DO! They post the cat's photo on their Splendid Friends website and Facebook page, along with a selection of costumes and backgrounds. Then you get to choose which painting template you'd like to see them in.
You'll also be able to read about the cat, learn their story and what makes them so special. Right now they're featuring Nadya, a Mother-of-the-Year cat we introduced you to on our blog just a few months ago (
here.) Be sure to stop by Splendid Friends and choose the painting you think is just right for Nadya!
