Here Comes Fall!

I can’t believe how quickly time is going by… It is almost October!

As much as I love summer, Fall is one of my favourite times of the year.. There is something about the cool, crisp air, the ever changing colours of the leaves that are so beautiful and of course, the boots and sweaters kind of weather! I love sitting outside, wrapped in a blanket, sipping on some hot tea…… !

This fall will be even more exciting for me as I have officially launched my new book ‘Home is where my cat is’. I have had great response to the book and I look forward to selling lots of copies in order to raise funds for Berkeley’s Place and Safe Team Rescue!

If you were wondering how to get your hands on a copy, you can order online at http://www.blurb.com/b/7353558-home-is-where-my-cat-is or send me an email at crazycatladycorner@yahoo.com.

Project Update #1

Hello everybody! I just wanted to give you all a quick update as to how things are coming along with my new book project!!! I have had some great responses and have about 11 stories put together so far!

I still have room for another 10 or so stories so please make sure to get in touch if you would like your kitties featured on the book.

A little request…. when you send me emails with the stories, please make sure to include the following :

  • 3 clear photos of each kitty (high resolution if possible)
  • A little history on the kitty and how you found them.
  • A bit on kitty’s personality, their favourite things like food, toys etc and a day in the life of the kitty…. what is an average day like for them….

I am hoping to do a pre-print of the book this weekend to see how the picture quality turns out so if you want to get those stories to me sooner, that would be great!

New Project In The Works!

Hello Friends!

I have been thinking of doing something fun for the upcoming holiday season and I came up with an idea of doing a little book of Kitty & friends…..!

It would be a book full of photos and stories of kitties who have been adopted from rescues and shelters. Tt would be an opportunity to give thanks and a shout out to the rescues as well!

Once the book is ready, I am hoping to sell it and have all the proceeds from it go to various local rescues. I haven’t picked which rescues to donate towards yet. I know a few organizations that build shelters for feral colonies so that those kitties are warm and safe during winter. This would be a great project to contribute to….

If you have any suggestions and ideas about this project, please let me know:) I would love to get some feedback!!

Visit To The Vet!

Well it’s that time of the year….. ! The dreaded visit to the vet!

In the past, although she isn’t too thrilled about being stuffed into a carrier and taken to the vet, Kitty hasn’t really put up too much of a fight…..

This year, it was actually a really enjoyable experience! PS. Kitty wants me to tell you that it was fun except for when the Doc used the bumstick!!!

Here is how our day went……

First, Kitty got all cosy in her stroller…… I love this stroller so much! Not only is it comfortable for Kitty, it saves me from getting a bad shoulder pain from carting the carrier around!

It was a beautiful day! We stopped to look at some butterflies and say hello to some doggies that passed by….

The walk up to the vet clinic was about 15 mins… Kitty was chilling out as she enjoyed the sights and sounds.

When we got there, she was so great! She patiently waited for Doc, didn’t fuss when she got the needle and held on to my hand when the dreaded bumstick  had to be used!

She was weighed, checked out and given some yummy treats by the Doc. She has a clean bill of health! Yay! We took a selfie to celebrate! LOL

And then we made our way to the pet store next door!

“What would you like, Kitty?” I asked her……

“Oh, that tuna snack looks good, Mama”she said….. We walked up the aisles and Kitty finally picked some treats….. She wanted to try something new…… So we picked up new flavours of Greenies and a new brand of wet food. Oh, and the bag of treats you see here is her gift from Doc!

And we started our walk back home!

Kitty had a little nap when we got back and then spent the rest of the day chilling out on the deck, snacking on her cat grass and enjoying the sunshine!

Do you have any interesting stories of when your kitties visited the vet?

You can comment here or email it to crazycatladycorner@yahoo.com.

Kitty and I would love to hear them!

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”

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.
