ReplyDeleteEven though I am not a cat I am very proud to know that us four legged creatures can make a difference. ~Fenris Wolf (the dog)
This is a wonderful thing that you are doing! I was able to donate something from through the generosity of those in the CB that helped me during my recent illness. We will support your efforts on my blog this week and mom is helping me find a picture to send! Love you!

ReplyDeleteYour FL furiends,
We put the announcement in our sidebar - but we won't be able to participate - except for Mrs. OZ we NEVER do hairballs in public. And while Mrs. OZ' hairballs themselves would be winning any price that could be out there the staff strangely never took pictures of them... OR recorded the noises (award material!) Mrs. OZ makes while producing the hairballs....
