Kitty Mojito’s Story!

Hello hoo-mans…

I was just going to have an evening nap but Mama asked me to write something!

She is so busy these days with her new job… she is always studying and doing number stuff at home…. I miss her not being home during the day 😦

Today, I wanted to tell you my story and how I found my Mama and Daddy.

The memories are blurred. I remember being in another city…. I remember being in a place where people were not very nice to me….  They were mean… One day, my tail was broken…. another day, my little whiskers were burnt…. I was so afraid …. so afraid…

Some nice ladies from Whisker Rescue found me….. I was very sad… I don’t remember much of my life back then…I was only 1. But I do remember living in a cage at a store for a long time….. It was ok I guess. At least no one hurt me. I was warm and I had food. But I was still sad….

One day, this man came into the store and was looking at all the kitties … He played with me through the cage… I was so excited that someone talked to me and played with me…. His voice was soft and kind… After a few minutes, he left …. I was sad again… I guess I was going to be alone forever …. What I didn’t know was, that in the next few days, my life was going to change!

The next day, the nice man came back, but this time, he had a lady with him. She was sweet and kind too and she talked to me through the cage… She talked to me for a long time…. Then she walked around the store and started picking up things… The nice man was helping her…. Suddenly, the lady at the store opened my cage!! What??? I was getting out? What’s happening here???

The next thing I knew, I was getting put into a crate and carried into a car…… The nice people were taking me home!!! That day was the happiest day of my life….. I was taken to a nice apartment ….. I spent the day exploring and that night, I slept with the nice people (whom I call Mama and Daddy)in a comfy, warm bed! It was heaven…..

This happened about 3 years ago…. Since then, my life has been amazing!!

So much fun, so much love, so much adventure!!! It can’t get any better than this!

Mama and Daddy are the best thing that has ever happened to me….. !! And that is my story…… Ok Bye……!

Why So Silent?

Hello friends!

It is I! The Crazy Cat Lady!

I apologize for not writing any new blog posts over the past few weeks!

Life has gotten a tad bit hectic since I started a new job! And my weekends are dedicated to catching up on errands, chores and all that other non-fun stuff that needs to get done !

Yeah, being an adult sucks sometimes….

A.N.Y.W.A.Y ……. I just wanted to check back in here and let you all know that I am still around…:) Kitty has been keeping me company and has been helping me around the house so that’s a plus:) She has been wanting to take over the blog for a bit while I deal with my busyness:) I just may let her !;)

We also heard back from the photography place about the video we did….It turns out that we have to go back next month for a retake…. I will update you on that when I know ….

For now I will leave you with these adorable photos of my princess:)

Enjoy!!

We May Be In A Video!

Kitty and I had the pleasure of being part of a behind the scenes video for a great pet photography company here in town!

Kitty actually won a contest which gave her this opportunity and it was one heck on an experience!!

It was a video about what goes into the making of a pet photography session.

I am not sure if I can give out any more details yet but once I hear back from them, I will share the video:) It will be featured on their website and you will be able to find it on YouTube as well.

It was fun and Kitty (although she was a bit stressed) did great!  I was told that they got some great shots and I am so excited to see the photos!

Speaking of photos, I caught Kitty taking some selfies with my phone!! What do you think? Isn’t she just adorable?

Thank You From Aria And Stravyn!

When Kitty had the reins to the blog awhile back, she decided to do some advertising of her own and sent out a bunch of bookmarks to some of her new buddies.

I received these photos from Aria’s daddy, Rob and Stravyn’s papa, Scott.

 

This is Aria …..  As you can see she is reading the letter that Kitty sent her. 🙂 From what I hear from her daddy, Aria loves mail! I think she must have been thrilled to get this!!

This is Stravyn. She actually has her own blog! (www.stravyn.com) She is also a very vocal about her thoughts and ideas! She sent me a little message to let me know that she is enjoying the bookmarks with this new book she is reading “The cat who smelled a rat”

And big thanks to Aria (and Rob) and Stravyn (and Scott) for allowing me to share these photos 🙂

The postcards are finally here and I must say that they look great! I was told by a follower that they would also make great invitation cards! And I agree!! Thanks for that idea!

It’s unique and adorable!

I have a limited quantity made with this design so if you would like to grab some, send me a message! You can pay via Paypal (worldwide) or e-transfer if you in Canada! Please share any photos or reviews about any of the products that you buy from me. I love to hear you!

Something Creative, Something Cool!

As you may have seen in my earliest posts, I am slowing including new items to the Crazy Cat Lady Shop!

The bookmarks were a huge hit and I am down to my last 10!  They were just fe-lying out of here!

So to celebrate that success,I have added on some cool postcards to my repertoire. They can be used as postcards / thank you cards /greeting cards (for those of us who still love sending old fashioned mail!) or pop them in a frame and you have a really cool art piece!

You can pre-order by emailing me or leaving a comment on here and I will start shipping them out mid June.
