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!

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?

Oh my Cod, we're just SO excited. I don't know...I  think I may have hugged Waffles.

Oh don't worry...we're just playing around. No fur flew.

We are humbled and touched by this incredible honor. And it's all because of YOU, our supercalifragilisticexpialidocious friends & readers. You and your nominations made all the difference.

Now onto the begging. We need your votes! From now through July 31 you can vote once a day. It's just like taking your vitamins. Except no horse pills.

You'll recognize lots of our friends in some of the other categories so please give them some love and some votes too!

Voting is OPEN NOW through 2:00pm EST Thursday on Facebook for AmazeCats Next Top Cat. I'm up against some powerhouses that have leaped out front. So I need your help to make it to the next round.

I would appreciate it ever-so much if you'd click the little button next to my name. And if your dog has a Facebook account... can you please get him to vote too?

Waffles Wednesday

Um, hi everybuddy, Waffles Too here.

Um, so Katie...I mean the Boss, says I can take over Wensdays on a trail basis.

She tole me it's sposed to be Wordless Wensday and that I should keep it that way.

She was kinda bossy about it. Prolly cuz her name is Boss.

So until I can figure out what Wordless means, I'll just tell you a little bit about me.

1.  My favorite food is Katie's food.
2.  My favorite toys are Katie's toys.
3.  My favorite blanket is Katie's blanket.
4.  My favorite litter box is Katie's litter box.
5.  My favorite water is Katie's water. (but I also like playing in the toil..I mean bathtub)

I like the toilet too, but Glogirly always calls me NO when I try to jump in.  NO must be like a nickname or something.

Ok that's it.

Oh WAIT! I'm in my very first contest ever! It's a cute cats contest over at Eric & Flynn's Adventures. The Boss let me enter instead of her. There's lots of cute cats too choose from, but you can only vote for one US cat and one UK cat.

I'm a US cat. So if you think I'm a cute US cat, can you please vote for me? But you don't have to cuz the other cats are reely cute too. Just be sure to vote. Thanks mew.

Exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Closing Statement

Hi everyone, Katie here.

It's the home stretch for "Katie Is...ACCUSED" in the frenzied race for Purina's 'The Friskies' Best New Internet Cat Video of 2012. Voting closes today, Friday November 9 at 12:00 noon, EST.  If there's anyone on the planet you know hasn't voted yet...human, feline, even CANINE... as long as they have an email, it's time to strong-paw them!

Today, most appropriately, we are going behind-the-scenes with my only lead attorney, the Stunning Counselor Cathy Keisha.

KATIE:  Ms. Keisha, what was your favorite part of the video?

CK:  The parts with me in it, of course.

KATIE:   Of course.

CK:  TW loves Gloman's voice but who cares what TW loves.

KATIE:  Yeah well, TW has never heard Gloman rip into the TV ads and losing football team here. I'm pretty sure I'm suffering from permanent nerve damage.

CK: The plot. The plot holds the viewer's interest, IMSO.



KATIE:  What are the other animals in your house saying about the video?

CK:  All the stuffies around here are my political enemies so they're jealous and said they won't vote for it. There are gonna be a lot of stuffies going down the chute today unless they change their minds.

KATIE:  Never trust a stuffie.  Ok, Ms. Keisha, the $15,000 question...Guilty or Innocent?

CK:  Who you looking to blame for this? I'm innocent due to my not being guilty. Oh, you're talking about Katie.

KATIE:  *sigh*

CK:   I'm KATIE'S LAWYER! Of course she's innocent.

KATIE:   *phew* Ok Ms. Keisha, any final thoughts?

CK:  I'd like to make a closing statement to the jury. This case has dragged on long enough. I'd like to ax you to ignore all the lies you're heard from the Prostitutor--Whatta you mean, objection? Sit down you liar?--and his witnesses.

Did any of you see any spit on that shoelace? I didn't think so and IF THERE IS NO SPIT, YOU MUST ACQUIT.

Now look at my client. The innocent look, the pleading little kitten eyes, and ax yourself if she could've done what she's been excused of. On the other hand, look at Gloman. A grown man, who doesn't know enough not to leave his sneakers all over the floor. He's got a cat, a sweet, innocent little cat and yet he entraps her cos he knows that a cat is going to be curious. No jury of cats can find her guilty of BEING A CAT!!

I find Gloman guilty of negligence and breaking Cat Rule #97 as put forth by Sparkle Cat: "Anything left on the floor any length of time whatsoever is considered property of the cat, and the cat can use it for any purpose deemed appropriate."

Katie broke no rules and must be released NOW. Thank you.

________________________________________________________________________________

Thank you everybuddy for all of your votes, shares, shameless pulgs and support.
We love you SO much and the joy you bring to us is better than any award, EVER.

Voting is closed and now we wait with paws joined and crossed.

Get Out And VOTE

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Today comes but once every four years here in the US. Glogirly takes a walk to the local elementary school, looks at the construction paper cutouts of kids' hands on the wall, and the tiny little classroom chairs. She waits in line with friends, neighbors, and strangers to check the little boxes. She's thankful for living in this great country and prays those little boxes make a difference.

"Nobody will ever deprive the American people of the right to vote except the American people themselves and the only way they could do this is by not voting."

-Franklin D. Roosevelt

_________________________________________________________________________________

Those of you who are kind enough to come and visit me day after day know there's another VOTE going on.  For the past two weeks, Glogirly's been asking total strangers to vote for our video, "Katie Is...ACCUSED."  Out of LOTS and LOTS of total strangers, only one grumpy elevator man looked at her like she was nuts. Everyone else- the grocery store guy, the post office lady, the car repair guy, the cashier at Target, even the Delta Airlines check in agent (and they're almost ALWAYS grumpy) were happy to help. They all promised to watch and vote. They all smiled big and wished us luck.

So as your human is standing in line to cast their vote in the presidential election, how about they ask just one person to watch and vote for Katie. All they need to remember is TheFriskies.com and Katie Is...Accused.  Click HERE for a small reminder card you can print! This is just the kind of thing that can turn strangers into friends.

Almost Wordless Wednesday

Hi everyone, Katie here.

I've been hard at work recruiting *volunteers* for my 2012 Petties Award Campaign. If you're a Facebook fan, you may have already met some of our newer recruits.

The jury's still out though on whether you get more votes with a basket of kittens or a hamster held for ransom.

I know...you're sick of me asking for your Pettie vote for Best Blog Post.  

But I'm tenacious, competitive and not afraid of annoying you. I'm a CAT.

Click here to vote for GLOGIRLY and your other favorite blogs.

You can vote once a day and every time counts. Thanks SO much for your support and your vote. XO
