Ready for your glam shots?
Oh, oh, oh!! Happy Dancin’ here!!
Today a box came; this strange man left it at the door and drove away in a truck. That usually means Mom does a happy dance. But noooo! It was for me! Okay…for me and The Others, but I get first pick.
A nice lady that Mom knows donated some beds to us, she wanted to make sure we’ll be warm enough now that the weather is getting colder. Brrr, she’s so thoughtful! And you know what? She sent a bunch! She knows all about the foster girls who are living here, and thought it would be a good thing to make their stay (it’s turning into a long one) as comfortable as possible. She can’t adopt them, but she found another way to help them.
Her name is Kim (not Mom, another Kim), and it turns out she’s a real artist with sewing. She makes quilts that people are amazed with, they love them so much. And she has some of her prize quilts in showcases. Wow!! Mom can barely get a thread through a needle. Sorry, Mom, but it’s true. Needless to say, we’re quite impressed.
So…back to the blankies. Miss Kim says they’re “nothing”, she just “threw them together”. Well, that might be true for a professional sewer and quilter, but let me tell you – they’re awesome! We all tried them out, and right off the bat they got the Candy Seal of Approval. Candy is the comfort queen around here, she always knows THE best spots for comfy snoozing, so you know they’re great kitty beds. I tried out a bigger one, and it’s so soft and comfy to lounge on.
Now. Here’s the thing. I want to share these with you. Mom told me sharing is very important and it makes you a good dog. So, I was thinking…who should get one? Well, I swear I can’t pick, so I have a fun idea – thanks to a follower here, Mary, who suggested we include photos from readers. How’s about this: a photo contest!
Anyone who wants to, send Mom a photo of your pet – dogs and cats, we love both here. Then Mom will post all the photos on Friday, and everyone can vote for the winners in the comment section. We can have a winning kitty and a winning poochie! What do you think?
I can’t wait to see some photos of my doggies friends – and kitties friends – and show off how great we all are. Yeah, there will be one who gets a blankie, but hey – we’re all winners, right?

Just send your fabulous photos to me, the email address is above (under my own glam shot!) by Friday. Tell us a little something about your pets, if you like.
And Mom says, no…I don’t get to be in this contest. Sigh…
CindyLu ^’..’^
p.s. – Yep, it’s that simple. Email photos of all your pets, one of each, and they’ll be Famous on Friday! Then everyone can comment to vote on who they think should be the winning dog and the winning cat. Winners will be announced on Saturday!
Some examples of Kim’s quilt work:
The kitty and small dog beds are made by Kim Stauss, of Racine, Wi. If you are interested in her work, please message her at Kim Stauss on Facebook, or email tennismomkimba at AOL for more photos or information.
Absolutely gorgeous work. I’ve always wanted to learn how to quilt. Maybe this will help inspire me!
What a fabulous post and these are gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t know if I can email from your link, it doesn’t usually work on my computer that way. Could you please print your email address?
I sent them, I had to copy your email address because I can’t send directly from the link…please let me know if you received them!
Thanks!!
Your friend does AMAZING work!
Wow, she is talented! Wish I could sew! Ugh.. in another life perhaps! : ) I also don’t have any pets so I won’t be entering the contest but its a great idea!
