Thankful Thursday - Gifts from a Famous Friend! :)

Hey, everybuddy! If the cat in these first two pictures looks stunningly familiar, it's because that's none other than our famous blogging pal Cathy Keisha. Yes, it's true, Tracey and I had the distinct honor of meeting The Stunning One in person last weekend! We were already friends with TW, whom we met a few years back at BlogPaws. But we never imagined that we'd one day get to meet CK (and Pop) in person, too!

True to her reputation, CK is stunning. She also showed us her sassy, street smart side when she hissed and swatted at yours truly. (Fortunately, after 18 years as a cat volunteer, I have pretty fast reflexes. No harm, no foul -- we love ya, CK!). TW said maybe, just maybe, CK thought we were there to take her to the shelter. Which we can understand, since we WERE there to take a whole bunch of awesome stuff she and TW generously donated for the PAWS cats, and feral kitties in our area.

We're not joking when we say "a whole bunch" of stuff. We loaded up the car and drive home, and the next day, delivered everything to PAWS. As you can see, the gifts were a huge hit with our adoptable pals who currently live in the meeting room.
Nellie: "Thank you for the noms, treats and fab scratchers, CK and TW!"
Morticia: "This cat tree is Da Bomb, CK. Fanks!"

Thank you, Cathy Keisha, TW and Pop, for hanging out with us, and for your generosity and care for our PAWS pals, and all cats everywhere. We are truly grateful for you, and for your friendship!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Thank you! Thank you! It was nice—heh heh—to meet you and Tracey and an honor to donate to PAWS. As you know, our local TNR wouldn't travel 4 blocks to pick the stuff up. Their loss is PAWS gain.
