Waffles Wednesday with RASTA KITTY COCKTAIL . . . yah man!

Hey everybody, Waffles here,

We're going for it again! With all the excitement surrounding the launch of Mad Kitty Cocktail, we almost forgot about the latest Design the Next Can Contest sponsored by mikes HARDER. They're launching a new Jamaican Lemonade flavor next year. So you know what THAT means, don't you?

RASTA KITTY COCKTAIL ... yah man!

Voting is already open on the Zooppa contest site and I don't think any of those nay-sayers from the last contest have found us yet! Part of the success of Mad Kitty Cocktail was all of the social buzz you helped us generate through comments and votes on the contest site. We'd be so very grateful if you'd pop by our Rasta Kitty Cocktail page to cast your votes and leave a little comment love. 

HERE'S HOW TO VOTE:

1.   Just click the voting link below and login either with Facebook or your email. The site you're going to is called ZOOPPA.

2.  Once you're logged in, click the back button twice to return to our Rasta Kitty Cocktail page. (if you've been to the site before, it will probably remember you and you won't have to go back.)

3.  There's a voting "slider" on the right hand side of the Rasta Kitty Cocktail page. Slide it ALL the way over to cast 5 votes. That's the maximum number of votes. You can only do this once.

4.  Then just click the VOTE button. That's it!


VOTE HERE FOR RASTA KITTY COCKTAIL

Still trying to get your paws on a can of Mad Kitty Cocktail?

Here's the latest from mike's:
The Mad Kitty can is the second of four limited edition can designs. All four designs are the new Apple Firebomb flavor from mike's HARDER. The first can design to hit stores carrying this flavor is the apple design. As soon as that sells down, the next can to make it's way onto the shelves will be Waffles.

In many cases, you may not see Mad Kitty Cocktail until mid December or later.

• To find which stores near you will be carrying this, just go to the mike's HARDER website HERE. Click on the button to indicate you are over 21.
• You'll immediately see Waffles' Mad Kitty Cocktail can. Click on the large FIND IT button.
• Enter your zip code.
• Click the drop down menu to select the Apple Firebomb flavor.
• Click SEARCH.

If it's available in your area a map of locations will appear. Good luck!  ...and if you manage to find it, please feel free to share a photo on our Facebook Page!

Mad Kitty Happy Hour is Here!

WAFFLES:  Boss! LOOK!!! It's the very first can of Mad Kitty Cocktail!

KATIE:  Waffles, you KNOW you're way too young to drink that. And... you're a cat. There's that.

WAFFLES:  But my picture's on it and everything!

KATIE:  Don't remind me. Something tells me I'm going to be looking at your face every time Glogirly opens up the fridge for the next 20 years.

WAFFLES:  Well maybe by then I'll be old enough to drink my own drink.



Don't Dilly Dally!
Waffles' Mad Kitty Cocktail is part of a limited edition, collector's series from mike's HARDER. Once it's gone, it's GONE! If you're not sure where to find it, just check out mike's HARDER online. It's pretty hard to miss Waffles and his can...he's splashed all over their website! Once you're there, click *FIND HARDER* and enter your zip code.

Share the LOVE
If you can't find it, visit their Facebook page and tell them!
If you CAN find it, tell them how much you love it!
Visit mike's Facebook post about the the new cans HERE.


So How Does Mad Kitty Cocktail Taste???
Glogirly's always been a fan of mike's. She loves anything that's sweet & fizzy. Apple Firebomb is a sweet & spicy apple-cinnamon flavored adult beverage with a splash of heat. It's a purrfect fall flavor for those cool, crisp nights. Or days ..it's 5:00 pm somewhere, right?


What's Next?
Stay tuned... remember that super top-secret photo/video shoot Waffles & Glogirly went to in Chicago? Well, all will be revealed next week!

Please drink Mad Kitty responsibly.

Are YOU Ready for Dragon Kitty Cocktail???

WAFFLES:  Boss! You've got some nasty morning breath there.

KATIE:  You should talk, Waffles.

WAFFLES:  Uh, ok. What do you want to talk about? Sports? News? Weather? Girlz?

KATIE:  You're the one with his face on the can. How about you start by asking our friends to help us win this thing?

WAFFLES:  Will you ask for me, Boss?  I'm kind of busy.

KATIE:  BUSY???

WAFFLES:  You know, busy breathing fire and all.



The Heat is ON!
... and Dragon Kitty Cocktail Needs YOU!
You already helped us win BIG with our Mad Kitty Cocktail can design for the upcoming special edition fall flavor of mike's® HARDER, and we're forever grateful! It won't be long until Waffles hits the liquor store shelves. I know, what could possibly be better than that??? How about seeing him AGAIN next spring showing off their new dragonfruit flavor?!?

But Wait! There's More! 
How about seeing Waffles on TWO new dragonfruit designs?!?  That's right, we've doubled our chances and entered two fiercely-fabulous-feline designs.



So Here's Where YOU Come In
We Need VOTES!
We Need BUZZ!
We think a big part of the reason mike's® chose our winning Mad Kitty Cocktail design was because of all the votes and social buzz YOU helped generate! We would like to ask for your support and help once again in making it happen for Dragon Kitty Cocktail and Dragon Kitty Cocktail 2.

We're well on our way with more comments on our can page than any of the other 250+ entries. And if you can believe it, a few of those comments aren't very nice. In fact, it's almost like 4th of July fireworks...minus the sparkly glitter in the sky. If you have time while your there casting your votes, we'd love it if you'd leave a comment of support. Tell mike's® how amazingly awesome if would be to have a fierce, fire-breathing CAT on the next can. We know they're listening!

Waffles Wednesday: Things Are Getting Deep Around Here

Look DEEP into my eye.

The one on the right. No, the left. No, definitely the right.

Are you looking? Looking deep? Are you?

Ok DEEPER!

I know you can do it on account of the Boss is always telling me stuff is getting deep around here.

Voting for the next mike's® HARDER can design contest starts in just a few weeks. So far my fire-breathing Dragon Kitty Cocktail can is a BIG hit! Lots of people have seen it and there's bunches of cool comments from all of you!

Well EYE had an idea! Ok, maybe it was Glogirly. But EYE helped...

It's a 2-FER!
Since mike's® is giving a paws-up to multiple designs or even making a series, I decided that TWO Dragonfruit Waffles would be way cooler than just one! Right?

Our newest entry has it's own page on the contest site and we'd love it if you have time take a peek and let mike's® know what you think! Glogirly says I look fierce peeking through the giant dragonfruit. Don't be scared though... I may LOOK like a real live dragon, but I'm just pretending.

Hi everybuddy, Waffles here.

GUESS WHAT GUESS WHAT GUES WHAT?!?!?!?  We just got the news! The email went something like this:

"Dear Waffles,  (ok, they actually said, Dear Glogirly)  

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Your BRILLIANT can design for Mike's Harder has won!"

They called me BRILLIANT!!! Did you see that? Brilliant!!! I'm pretty sure that means I'm handsome AND smart.

Speech! Speech!
I want to thank the Academy– um, I mean all my friends and fans, who voted for Mad Kitty Cocktail! Thanks to YOU, your votes and especially your comments, Mike got the message. And now, not only will a CAT be on their next collectors edition can, but the cat on the can will be ME!!!

And as if having my face on the can wasn't awesome enough, we win a cash prize too! This means we'll be able to share and make a nice donation to our shelter kitty friends at Minnesota's Feline Rescue, Inc.


Facebook LOVE
Here's one of the official announcements from the Mike's Harder Facebook page. If you're as excited as we are, pop over to their page,  spread some kitty love and tell them how smart they are for picking Mad Kitty Cocktail!  Leave a Comment on Mike's Facebook Page HERE.

The new cans will be available this fall. We'll be keeping our eyes peeled and will let you know just as soon as I'm sitting on the liquor store shelves.

And if you think THIS is cool... well, there's just ONE DAY LEFT until MAYDAY!!!

See you tomorrow!

Orange Paws Crossed

WAFFLES:  Glogirly says good things happen when you cross your paws. It's kind of hard to cross them and eat at the same time though. Or use my litter box. Or touch the Boss. Um, WHY are my paws crossed again?

KATIE:  Well I suppose you want something, right?

WAFFLES:  OH yeah! The contest I'm in is almost over and I'm still in third place. It's that Mike's Hard Lemonade can contest thing. The voting ends in just a day. Lots of my friends have been voting and leaving nice comments for me on my Can Page.




WAFFLES:  But somebody left a comment and said my can was LAME. Can you believe it?

KATIE:  Well, don't look at me. You might be annoying. A little wet behind the ears. But you're not lame. And even if you were, I sure wouldn't take the time to write a comment TELLING you you are.

WAFFLES:  Thanks, Boss. So what should I do? I mean besides crossing my paws and all?

KATIE:  Alright, Waffles. I suppose I can give everyone my patented 'won't-you-please-please-vote-for-Waffles-sad-and longing-eyes-look' and ask them to vote for your can. How's this?

Mad Kitty Cocktail Hits the Caturday Pop-Art Circuit

02/13/14 UPDATE!  

Voting is now open! Let's get Waffles on the next can of Mike's Hard Lemonade!

CAST YOUR VOTE HERE

(just move the "slider" over to cast 5 votes at once)  ~Thank you!

Hi everybuddy, Waffles here.

I'm taking over today's Caturday Art Hop post on account of a new contest me and Glogirly have entered. The Mike's Hard Lemonade people are going to sell a brand new flavor of their fizzy adult beverage this fall and they'll be launching it with four limited edition cans designed by ... well, anyone who wants to enter the contest!

The flavor is a super-spicy, hot cinnamon and apple. When Glogirly saw the contest she just KNEW there needed to be a CAT on the can. She even got to name it! Truth be told, Gloman came up with the name.

So what do you think? Wouldn't it be cool to see ME on lots and lots of Mad Kitty Cocktail cans???

Glogirly says I'm too young to drink. Well, I'm a cat too. There's that. But I'm going to tell the Mike's Hard Lemonade people that I'm available for purr-sonal appearances.


HOW TO HELP ME BECOME THE MAD KITTY COCKTAIL KITTY

VOTING WILL BEGIN SOON
We're waiting to hear when public voting will open. As soon as it does, we'll definitely let you know! The top ten can designs with the most votes will become finalists. And from those, Mike's will choose FOUR cans to use for their brand new beverage.

WHAT CAN YOU DO NOW?
Visit the contest site and just leave a fun comment underneath my Mad Kitty Cocktail can design. Let's show those hard lemonade drinkers a thing or two about how totally PAWESOME it would be to have a CAT on the can!  Thanks, every buddy!
