A Humble Thanks Plus 30 Nominations!

I apologize to any readers who are might be out there checking in everyday anxiously awaiting CatPurrology’s next post. Recently I’ve been working my way through one technical issue after another i.e. computer crashing, internet issues, accidently disabling the security firewall, even problems posting videos. It’s been frustrating and I’m not at all technically savvy but I am getting through it.

Thank goodness for this ROCKIN’ cat blog and all you WONDERFUL cat protectors/followers/readers/blogging friends. By starting this blog I’ve discovered many other blogs that ROCK!  I am connecting with so many wonderful and unique people who also love cats from ALL AROUND THE WORLD!

This has been enough to keep my spirits up. I am truly honored and thrilled yet amazed by the positive feedback, kindness, and support that’s been coming our way. When someone goes out of their way to say that our post “made their day” or “simply makes them happy” Slash and I are overjoyed so much so we might even dance a jig!

I’m excited to announce that throughout this time of struggle and lack of regular postings CatPurrology has been nominated for two more awards!

A special thanks to Life’s Journey & More for nominating us for The One Lovely Blog Award! Please visit this great blog and check out this recipe for stuffed chicken baked in butter and cream sauce. Looks and sounds incredible!

  • As a teenager I painted my room black.
  • All four cats I’ve had have all been black and male without selecting them.
  • I walk Slash (aka Slasher) on a leash sometimes.

    • Thank you! I really appreciate that. It means a lot coming from you since your blog totally rocks! :)

      I recently took a new job where I have to go in to an office full time so that’s why I’ve been absent in the blogoshere lately. You have motivated me to be sure to find the time, thank you! :)

  2. Thank you very, very much for nominating me for the Versatile Blogger award! It is a great acknowledgement to me that people notice my blog, and I feel honored. I will post about it today.

  3. Congratulations on your awards, you deserve them! :-D
    I totally understand where you are coming from about difficulties keeping you from your blog… I have been having the same problem lately and have really missed tuning into all my favorite blogs. There really is such a sweet and wonderful community of animal lovers here on wordpress, and you are a big part of that! I hope all your technical problems are solved soon so that you are back up and running once again.
    We also wanted to say thank you so much for nominating all of us here at the farm for the One Lovely Blog award, you have made us feel very special, what a great feeling indeed!

    • I agree about having found a great community of animal lovers. You are so sweet and I admire what you are doing with your awesome blog. Keep up the great work! You make us feel special too, thank you!!!

  4. Congrats for those fine awards! I really love hanging around this cool blog.
    Thank you very much for my nomination. Appreciate it. Bowie says “Meow!”

  5. Thank you so much for the nomination:) I will get to working on it the next few days….I am behind a bit with as I have another nomination too…I feel very humbled that others enjoy my blog. Like you I was not sure if my blog would be interesting to others and a blessing, it is nice to know that others are uplifted and enjoy it:) Slash rocks too:) I had a black kitty named Kalamazoo who was a Manx….Zoo had quite the personality….we got him as a kitten when our three kids were just into grade school…Zoo always remembered if they ever made fun of him or laughed at him…he would wait until whoever it was got up to walk into another room and he would stalk them and when they had no idea he would pounce wrapping his front paws around their leg and try to bite them. He was very well known all 16 years of his life. Now we have Minnie who is 17 this year. I love my kit-kats:) Again thank you much:)

  6. Congratulations on winning your gongs! And thanks for my nomination. I’ve got a long overdue award post coming up, in which I redesign the awards and change all the rules, so keep a look out…
