She really loves her nose: The winner of the first cat photo contest

Though the deadline for the first newsletter-subscribers-only cat photo contest was Sept. 15th, it took my husband a little while to choose a winner. (I make him choose because I can't stand choosing between kitty pics--neither can he, of course, because he adores cats as much as I do, so really I'm just a big selfish meanie I guess. Ah well.)

This month was for the funniest cat photo, but I must admit that most of the ones we received were more "awwwwww" than "ahahaha" -- so after spending a lot of "awww" time with all the adorable kitties the hubby finally picked "Tasha Tortie Tongue" (as named by the adorable kitty's mom) as this month's winner. So congrats Katie--you've now won a $20 gift certificate to PurrPrints on etsy. (She's got even more adorable kitty pics on her flickr page for anyone who, like me, can't get enough of adorable kitties pictures).

Don't forget to leave lots of comment love for Katie's adorable kitty! And if you'd like to participate in next month's contest, which will be Halloween themed, just sign up for my newsletter using the form in the upper left corner of this page.

I'd also like to include a pic of the adorable Porkchop, who disappeared from his parents home a few months ago; as his mom Amanda said, he's "the coolest, bestest, 3-legged cat ever... and is sadly missed."

8 bits of commenty goodness:

If Angel couldn't win, I'm glad that Katie's Tasha won! Whenever I see a picture of Tasha I do a double take because she looks so much like my Isabella. Tasha is so cute and Katie is wonderful so congratulations to her!
