Nominations Open for Petties Awards

We weren't planning to participate this year until we read that for every blog nomination you can also nominate a deserving animal shelter to receive a $10,000 Petties Grant.

There are so many shelters out there who could use those funds. Our choices at the moment, based on need, are Great Plains SPCA and Kansas City Siamese Rescue (Maxwell's Alma Mater). 

KC Siamese in particular is in desperate need of funds right now, and so the heroes at that great group are our personal choice for the nomination! 

Please click the logo here on the left to nominate. You'll need the URL of the blog you're nominating (ours would be www.atonkstail.com for example) and the name of the shelter you wish to nominate.

Saturday Photohunt: Monochrome

Maxwell, doin' it right. (well, okay, except for the eyes)

Being a blue point, Max easily fits the monochrome definition, "being or made in the shades of a single color."

Saturday PhotoHunt: HAND

Maxwell, giving Marty a "hand" with the lattice.

(Actually more like enjoying a fleet 60 seconds outdoors when he dashed out before I could corral him.)
Deaf kitties are not allowed outside, Maxie!

The Great ESCAPE (Photohunt)

Today's Photohunt word is...escape. Faraday tried it.

So this is the Great Outdoors?

I don't know about this, kinda scary.

Although I do feel like a hunter in the Wild...

PFFFT! How do I escape this LEASH??!?

I'm so over this, Allie. You can have the outdoors!
