I found this adorable
kitty, made of resin, at my favorite thrift store, Life’s Treasures, on S. Dale
Mabry in Tampa. With that sweet face, how could I resist? My husband’s voice demanding,
“No more junk in this house!” rattled around in the back of my mind as I
carried the critter in my basket throughout the store in search of other
treasures. So, I took it back to where I’d first found it and put the kitty
back on the shelf. What do you think happened next? It jumped right back into
my basket! Okay…so it had a little help. But I honestly put it back three
times, and each time returned it to my basket. I actually let go of it the
second time. That sweet little face almost begged me to take it home. I’ve
justified the purchase (50% weekend so it was half price!), by telling myself
I’ll keep it at work.
Now I need your help. The kitty doesn’t have a name, so I’ve
created a contest to
NAME THAT KITTY!
The winner will
receive a free copy of “Chicken Soup for the Soul – I Can’t Believe My Cat Did
That!” Among the many amusing and heart-felt stories are my two, “Mewsic
Critic” and “Taming My Ogre.”
The Ottawa Herald recently profiled “Mewsic Critic” in one
of their articles. Another of my cat stories, “Trick or Feat,” will be included in CSFS’s next cat anthology, “The Cat Did What?” due to be released in September 2014.
So, put on your creative thinking cap and
NAME THAT KITTY!
Contest ends July 31, 2014.
