World's Best Cat Litter Giveaway!

I'd like to announce a very awesome giveaway I am hosting for World's Best Cat Litter's New Scented Multiple Cat Clumping Litter! Made with 100% all-natural scented lavender oil, this multiple cat formula is ideal for cat owners who prefer their cat litter to be scented.

Since World's Best Cat Litter only ships within the US, we are going to be holding TWO contests. One for our US friends and one for our International friends. Last week Gretchen and Rambler were vetted and both checked out great. Can you guess their weights?? If so you could win a bag of World's Best Cat Litter or a Ferris Meow print from my etsy shop!

RULES:

Just leave a comment with your best weight guess for either Gretchen (US) or Rambler(outside of US). Please be sure to specify whether you are guessing Gretchen's weight (US friends) or Rambler's weight (International friends). Be sure we have a way to contact you by email either by your blogger account or leave us your email address in the comments section or email us your email address (thecreekcatsATgmailDOTcom).

*You have until Thursday, May 26, 2011 at 6:00pm est to enter. We will chose a winner using random.org. We will post the winner of the giveaway on Friday, May 27, 2011.

*One entry per household, please.

US FRIENDS: The closest guess at GRETCHEN'S weight without going over will win one bag of WBCL's New Scented Multiple Cat Clumping Litter! HINT: She is still very petite and all fluff!

We've had Gretchen now for 1 year (plus a few weeks) and she is doing wonderfully. Sweetest. Kitty. Ever! Last year when Gretchen was vetted, she weighed in at 6.5lbs. Remember she was the only surviving member of her feral colony in a remote location with little to no food source.

If you live outside the US, please scroll down. You will be guessing RAMBLER'S weight.

INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS: The closest guess to RAMBLER'S weight without going over will win an 8x10 Ferris Meow print from my etsy shop! HINT: He's more than 10lbs and less than 14lbs. Rambler was 12.8lbs at last year's vet appointment.

GOOD LUCK FRIENDS!!!!



Maggie May's Giveaway!

Head on over to Maggie May's and check out the totally awesome giveaway she is hosting for Hill's Science Diet Hairball Control Cat Food! It's so easy to enter, all you have to do is leave a comment! Unfortunatley for our international friends, this giveaway is only open to US residents.

And please won't you go to this link and write to Japanese officials and beg them to let the animals of the earthquake and tsunami disaster be cared for! I have printed off three copies of the English and Japanese versions of the letter to send to the 3 top officials (addresses are printed at the top of the English version of the letter). Won't you do the same? It costs about 98 cents to send a letter first class USPS internationally.

Spay/Neuter Clinic Update

Just a quick update about the TNR clinic last weekend.....

57 free-roaming cats were spayed or neutered, vaccinated and ear-tipped!

This is Speckles. She was one of the 31 females who were spayed. There were 26 males neutered.
This is the NC State mobile unit where the surgeries were performed.
This is the beautiful view we enjoyed as we washed traps and carriers, monitored cats, etc. We were blessed with gorgeous weather both days. Thank goodness!

YAY FOR TNR!

Happy Birthday, Maya and Chevelle!

Today is Maya and Chevelle's birthday! Hard to believe these two bottle-fed babies are 11 years old today!

Happy Weekend!

In honor of NC's Week for the Animals, the TNR group is having a HUGE spay/neuter clinic at a place called CMAST. I do believe Madi's Mom is familiar with this location. The NC State vet school mobile unit is coming to town to spay/neuter ~50 cats in two days. Trapping starts tonight and the clinic begins at 7am in the morning. We will be trapping again tomorrow night and will be back at it at 7am Sunday morning. Gonna be a busy weekend! Wish us luck!

Last weekend I furminated the kitties on the front porch. A couple of them were lucky enough to get to walk around the yard (some with a harness). Here are the pics from our fun day :)

P.S. Have you seen the article on Dixie Dog over at the Responsible Pet Ownership blog?
