Cat Baubles, Birthdays, Bowties, Cat Butts and Cuddly Cat Pillows!!

As many of you know, last week I had a HUGE birthday!!!! Not only was it HUGE in years, it was HUGE in love!! I am truly blessed! I had surprises that began on the weekend that continued right through my birthday, my husband was responsible for many of them, but I also received some other special things around the time of my birthday!

BAUBLES

Among some of the fantastic gifts I received were these beautiful "baubles" from my sister-in-law Nancy, who lives in Florida. She had visited France last summer and picked these up for me:

They now have a place of honor on a shelf in my office, I just love them!!!

BIRTHDAY

I also received some fabulous cards which you can see below:

Thanks to all who sent me cards, I hope I didn't miss anyone! I loved each and every one of them and am deeply touched!!!

BOWTIES

One of our readers commented on our Blogoversary post asking if Cody was wearing a collar. Nope, it wasn't a color but it WAS an adorable Bowtie!!

A few months ago I participated in an auction, and was the highest bidder of these darling Bowties made by Emily from Kitty Cat Chronicles!!!!

Our crochet bow ties and flowers are hand-made right here at home. They can be made in any color(s) or size. They have elastic bands on the back that slide over a collar. A great gift for any furry furiend, whether they be a kitty or a woofie!

The bow ties and flowers come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you aren't happy with the way your bow tie or flower turned out or if something comes apart, send it back for a fix or replacement at any time!

You can place your order for a bow tie or flower by emailing us at kittycatchronicles@gmail.com.


10% of all proceeds are donated to Circle of Friends Animal Society. - See more at: http://www.kittycatchronicles.com/bow-ties--flowers.html#sthash.EHQUzBvE.dpuf

Cody's ties were custom designed by Emily because he doesn't wear a collar, so she made a variation for him that ties. Emily asked me first if I wanted this type of a tie and I agreed since Cody does not wear Bow Ties regularly. CAUTION:DO NOT LET YOUR CAT WEAR THIS TYPE OF BOW TIE UNATTENDED. I only put ties on Cody when I am taking photos of him and I was right there with him the entire time. With this type of Bow Tie if you leave the cat unattended he/she could chew on the yarn. You do not want that to happen. As with toys, etc., when not in use, put them away in a safe place (if you have this type of a Bow Tie). 

Cody isn't a fan of bow ties or other items that he has to wear, so I don't normally keep them on him that long.  He wears them for special photos and holidays and that's about it! I thank Emily for doing such an incredible job with them, I am so happy to have been the highest bidder!!  I LOVE THEM!!!!! Cody now has them in FOUR different colors, so he is all set! Thank you Emily!!

 CAT BUTTS!

The next cat item I received was from my other sister-in-law, Judy. These you have seen quite a bit on the web, but here they are again!

CAT BUTT MAGNETS

CARTOON WORDS NOT INCLUDED!!

Then, I had a most wonderful surprise from my friend Joanne over at Triple T Studios! Back in September she had a give-away for a Cuddly Cat Pillow that I went crazy for because the gray tabby cat pillow looks so much like Cody!! Well, I entered the give-away, didn't win, but guess what Joanne surprised me with on my milestone birthday? Here it is!!!! The:

CUDDLY CAT PILLOW

FROM TRIPLE T STUDIOS!!

$19.99

The Cuddly Cat Pillow is the purr-fect way to add cat cuteness where you need a cushion.  This soft plush covered pillow measures approximately 15 inches ( 38 cm) wide, 11 inches (28 cm) high and 3 inches (8 cm) in depth.  Large enough to make a statement but small enough to double as a travel or car pillow.  Your new cat nap companion!

Cody doesn't think it looks like him, I think it does!

The Cuddly Cat Pillow is covered with a soft plush material.  The poly-fill pillow insert is included.

The Cuddly Cat Pillow is available in two colors: Gray Tabby and Brown Tabby.

Cody doesn't have to worry, the Cuddly Cat Pillow now resides with my other "artsy" pillows on our couch. I am certain I will find Cody sleeping on it or by it, one day soon!!!!

A huge thank you to Triple T Studios for this MOST APPRECIATED and deeply loved, surprise milestone birthday gift!!!! 

Thanks to everyone for all of the wonderful things that were featured on the blog today! Which ones are your favorites?
