Getting Back to Normal

Things have been kind of crazy around here for the last few days while I tried to get some support for Rich’s CAF fundraiser.  I enjoyed trying to help out, but that was tough work!  Now that I’ve picked a winner of my mug, I’m hoping that I can just get back to being a kitty.  A big “thank you” to all of those who donated.

I think the old guy may be losing it.  He hid my mouse, Fuzzy, and owl, Soren, when he tried to have me select a winner of the mug.  Then, he couldn’t remember where he hid them.  Weird old man!  He finally remembered where they were and gave me back my favorite toys.

It’s nice to get back to just being a kitten again, but I sure hope Rich reaches his goal of raising $5,000 for CAF.  That would be really awesome.

Rod tells me there’s a big celebration coming up on July 4^th to recognize the founding of our nation.  He keeps telling me not to be scared when the fireworks start going off.  I’m sure glad I’m an inside cat and won’t be outside when all the celebrating starts.        

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Okay, it was a drag, but I finally helped the old guy pick a winner of the mug with my mug on it.

And the winner is…

SIGMUND (SONNY) KARDAS

Congratulations to Sonny and a big THANK YOU to all of you who contributed to help me raise money toward Rich’s fundraiser for the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF).  My contest for the mug is over, but Rich will continue with his fundraiser through his 50^th birthday on July 17.  He has a goal of $5,000 and still has a long way to go, so please retweet his posts and share his Facebook posts.  I’m going to go back to just being a playful kitten.  I hope you continue to enjoy my posts.

Thinks Aren't Going As Planned.

I don’t know what kind of game the old guy thinks he’s playing, but I’m not in the mood for it.  He said something about me choosing a winner of my mug but I really don’t understand what I’m supposed to do.  Rod, you need to make it simpler if you want my cooperation.  I’m a kitten, not a game show host.

I Need Room To Relax

I enjoy all the fun things I have to play with, but sometimes I want to relax a little.  The old guy keeps leaving a bunch of stuff on the coffee table where I like to lay and stretch out a little.  He really needs to clean things up.  One item is a cute kitten calendar that would look great hanging in the kitchen.  Come on Rod, get off your chair and do a little housework.

I’m also hoping I can get a couple more donations for Rich’s CAF fundraiser before the end of the day.  I need at least one or two of my fans to contribute so I can have a drawing after 5PM to see who gets my beautiful mug on a mug.  Just two more $10 donations would do the trick.  Purrrty please!

I'm a Little Depressed

I'm waiting for some contributions to CAF

When I decided to help the old guy's son, Rich, raise funds for CAF, I thought my fans would be rushing for a chance to win a mug with my mug on it.   I waited by the computer all day to see donations come rolling in and...NOTHING!  I was so bummed.  Finally, one fan made a donation last night, but I still need at least four more before 5PM tomorrow, so I can have a drawing and send a mug to the lucky winner.  Come on fans...a $10 donation or more gets you a chance to win my mug.  That's a couple of lattes at Starbucks, or a few Rubio's fish tacos.

My mood really changed after I got the first donation and I was able to feel like my old self for a while.  I think you'd rather see me playing with my "stuff" instead of moping by the computer.

Win my Mug on a Mug!

How would you like one of my fabulous Tibbles mugs?  I’m running a special 3-day contest especially for all my adoring fans to help the old guy’s son, Rich, raise funds for the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF).  Rich hopes to raise $5,000 by July 17 to celebrate his 50th birthday.  With a $10 donation or more, you have a chance to win this beautiful mug with an original Rich Cruse “mug shot” of me on it.
Come on fans!  Show how much you love me and make a donation to a great cause.  If I get at least $50 in donations by 5:00pm on Wednesday, June 29, I’ll have a drawing and announce the winner.  With all of my adoring followers, this should be easy.

The Old Guy Goofed!

The old guy tried shooting his first video using the iPhone4, but he forgot Rich's advice to hold it horizontally.  Duh!  I want to post it anyway because it shows me playing with a stuffed owl toy I got from Sonny, one of my fans.  Sonny also sent me a bunch of other stuff.  How cool is that?  Thank you Sonny!
