So Very Grateful

Most of you know that our friends over at Twinkletoe Tails celebrated sweet Oui Oui's sixth birthday over the weekend with a commentathon party to benefit PAWS.  Those of you who attended know the gathering was of the "party-of-the-century" variety!  What fun, and how exciting to see so many of you there.  And NOW, we've been informed by Oui Oui and her family that the commentathon raised a whopping $101 for PAWS!*  (*We're going to designate the money for the Cosmo Fund, which helps pay for medical expenses for very sick or injured pets in the shelter's care.)

We are so very grateful.  Grateful to Oui Oui, Mica Minnie Moo, Carlos, Julie, Angel Leia, Mom Paula, and "the Girl" for their kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity.  And grateful for all of you who took the time to comment and help Oui Oui celebrate her special day.  Big hugs and thanks to you all.

And while we're on the topic of things for which we're GRATEFUL ... please be sure to come back Friday for some very exciting adoption news!  Here are just a couple of hints to hold you over...

Have a great week, everybody! :)

    What a great party and such generous friends! Oui Oui and the Meezers certainly are VERY special kitties and families. We cannot imagine a beter use of the donation than the Cosmo Fund.

    This is a lovely tribute to the work you do.

    I am so excited too. And I'm happy the money is going to go to the Cosmo fund. The Mom at Meezer Tails has offered to make a donation for every comment we had too! Aren't they great?! I have spent hours thanking kitties & woofies for coming to my party and I have so many more to go! I hope this will really make a difference and helps out a lot. Maybe more folks will celebrate this way too. That would be pawsome!

    It was a fantastic donation, and also just wonderful that the Meezers have decided to add to that. Kitties and beans around the CB are amazing!

    Their contribution to the kitty world is awesome. I hope them the best of luck.

    Glad to hear funds are coming to help the cats in need. It's always great news to read about people helping one another for the betterment of another animal's welfare.

    Oh my goodness! I am so, so sooooo sorry we missed the commentathon!! I feel terrible that I didn't know this was going on. I always want to help kitties in need when I can.

    We're sorry we haven't visited in so long. We miss reading your blog as well as all of our other great friends' blogs. Mama has been so stressed out lately, but she is going to try to get us back to writing and reading.

    We hope all the wonderful kitties in the shelter are well and find furever homes really soon!

    Purrs and prayers and hugs,
    Carmine and Milita
