It's My Purrthday Giveaway Pawty!

Sorry, this giveaway is now over.

Good morning! Smitty here to welcome you to my Purrthday Pawty Giveaway. Thank you so much for coming!

Today I am three years old.

Maybe you remember when I came to live with Gracie and her human furriends. My mom was just driving by a store one day when she said to herself, "I think I'll just stop in here and see if they have any kitties for adoption. Of course, I won't take any home with me." Well, those are my mom's famous last words.

I tried to tell her it was a bad idea. She let me out of my kitty cage, and I kicked and scratched and said, "Noooooooo! Escape while you still can!"

Would she listen? Of course not. My mom is kind of a meowsochist that way. And so she put me in a box and we rode home together. I'm telling you, things at the Three Cats Ranch have never been the same.

Things got bad for Gracie right away. She didn't like me at furst.

I was purrobably a little rambunctious for a grandma cat like her. I started calling her Grrrrrracie, and I don't think she liked it.

Eventually, she started to like me better. Now she'll even let me sit beside her sometimes when I'm being extra extra nice.

We even have outdoors adventures together.

And look at how much I've grown in the past three years!

So I'm here today to write my autobipawgraphy. Since I've been living at the Three Cats Ranch, a lot has been going on.

For one thing, I created the S.W.A.M.P. team. (I got that idea from watching old reruns of the Man from UNCLE.) It stands for Strategic Whiskers And Mouse Patrol. We have our work cut out for us around here, let me tell you. You just never know where those little mousies are going to escape to.

Just click on that link there, and I'll tell you all about our adventures.

We have a lot of catnip around the Three Cats Ranch.

Now that it's legal in Oregon, I like to get high as much as pawsible. You can see a lot from up here.

Also, I've become something of a cult classic. They actually created a new cat Monopawly token.

And not to toot my own horn, but I'm purretty sure it was modeled after me. I figure they saw my picture on the internets somewhere.

It's a purretty good likeness of me, don't you think?

Gracie is my best furriend, but I've made some other furriends since I've been here.

Yeah. That's Uno. He started coming around more than I like though, so now when I see him, I chase him off. Sheesh. Not enough mousies for the both of us.

There are lots of other little furry critters around here too. Sometimes I have them for lunch.

This is a purretty great place to live, and I've done some remodeling and redecorating.

Click right here to see some of my best hidey holes.

Also, I've done quite a bit of traveling. I've been all over the USA and Canada.

And I've had some purretty amazing adventures.

Day-to-day, I help my mom write her blog posts,

inspect her quilts,

and I help her with her sewing

By far, though, my most impurrtant job is making sure every quilt has ample depawsits of my furry self. As everyone knows, a quilt isn't finished until it has been embellished with fuzz.

So I've been working real hard making this little door purrize for some lucky somebody who comes to my Purrthday Pawty. I just know you're gonna want this mug rug of me, Smitty, to have fur your furry own. I'm calling this "Aged to Purrfection".

All you have to do is leave a comment right here on my Mom's blog to be in the drawing. On Tuesday, Some lucky one of you will have your name drawn, and she'll put this puppy, er kitty, into the mail fur you. And since we like to give special purreference to all of our special fans and followers, you can leave an extra comment and tell us how you follow along. She says she'll even ship internationally, so everybody can join in!

So thanks fur coming! It's been good to see you!
