The Winner is - - -

Update: Mom survived her surgery and is resting at home with her parents today. Now, for the long recuperation of this surgery (almost a year for the healing and follow-up procedures!)

The raffle for Mom Robyn's Amethyst Pendant ended this week and it was time for me to pick the winner. Mom took the time to put all of the names in a spreadsheet (isn't that what we kitties are supposed to sleep on?) and then cut out the names into strips. She tried to get me to help out, but I prefer playing with the paper instead of working.




I've got a wicked left hook, don't I?


After all of the papers were folded, Mom put them down and tried to convince me to pick the winner. I ignored the papers and chose to watch TV instead.



Then I chose to sit in the box instead of picking a name.

I don't want to pick a name!

Finally, Mom got smart and sprinkled catnip all over the names. I finally picked one!





And the winner is . . .



Thank you to all of my CB friends who helped out with my vet bills from my recent illness. You are a special group of people and Mom and I love all of you!


Pee ess - Mom is having gum surgery this morning (Friday), so I don't know when I will be able to visit again. Please don't forget about me because I shall return!

Oh wow, this is exciting! We're very honoured to be the winners of such a lovely pendant, drawn in such a purrfessional manner by the one and only Praline. Looks like our Grandma could find herself with a very nice birthday present this year...

We're gonna purr and purray for Praline's Mom to be okay after her gum surgery. BTW it's pretty freaky that our Mum went to the bean tooth v-e-t today herself, but it was nowhere as serious as for Praline's Mom.
