Hello all and welcome to Weekend Cat Blogging 68! Clare is still MIA, so Bonnie and I have been trying to hold it all together, but we need your help! The lovely Sanjee and Robyn from The House of (Mostly) Black cats are hosting next week, so we need volunteers for the WCB's during the month of October.
Who out there is feline enough to step up to the plate and round up, up, up, and out of the park?!?!?
Let's get some volunteers!
Meanwhile, in OTHER news, Today is my 27th birthday! Or, as I prefer to put it, It's the third anniversary of my 24th birthday! Hubby is taking me out to a LA hotspot called KOI for some food and hopefully celebrity watching. Tiggy helped me celebrate by waking me up with a kitty-back massage. Really, she kneaded me all over my sore back, which was totally appreciated. Hubby came home early from work with a beautiful floral arrangement, which of course I had to share with Tiggy:
She nearly singed her whiskers there!
And I made a cake for myself:
It's vanilla sponge cake with almond buttercream filling and raspberry jam. YUM!
I also got a new camera and a kick-butt beligum waffle maker (more on that later).
BUT the best present of all was a phone call from my best friend from Grade 8, Nikkel Carrera. We haven't talked in about 14 years, so it was great to catch up and an amazing birthday surprise. Hi Nikkel!
Enough about ME- let's get the round-up happening.

Hi Sarah,
Thank you for hosting again.
In honor of Stephen King's birthday this past Thursday, the cats are celebrating and are hoping they get adopted. http://misselliespage.blogspot.com/2006/09/mona-lisa-and-dante-celebrate-stephen.html
Take care.

The cats have a way of 'helping' that isn't always what they think

Thanks for hosting and let me know when to host. I discussed it with Boots and Tess and they are excited about it ;-)
P.S.: Happy Birthday. I turned 27 earlier this year and I totally get your comment about it being "the third anniversary of the 24th birthday"!!! Enjoy your evening at KOI.
Thanks for hosting WCB this week! Here's our entry from FarmgirlFare.com:
Patchy Cat was jealous of New Cat's recent portrait and demanded one of him, and since you don't want to make the Farm Boss mad. . .

Hello again!
A pal of mine in England would like to join WCB for the first time but is up to her eyeballs in a mashed potato testing, LOL, so I offered to leave you her entry. Actually, I said she HAD to join this week because her photo is absolutely wonderful (and very unique)! : )
Hope you like it:

Happy Birthday, Sarah.
Enjoy your youth.
Thank you for hosting WCB #68.
Glad to learn you are from Cananda and so is Jelly from "I Got 2 Shoes", and also you both celebrate birthdays only one week apart.
Tiggy really is wishing you a great birthday, and that picture is terrific.
That cake you made looks scrumptous!
Hope your night at the fine restaurant was excellent.
It sounds like we have some volunteers lined up to host future WCB.
Happy Birthday to you.
Happy Birthday to you.
Happy Birthday, Dear Sarah.
Happy Birthday to you.
And many, many more to come.
Love,
Bonnie in Virginia
Sarah,
Could you please add this link http://scamperdude.blogspot.com/2006/02/rocky-road-18468-special-needs-siamese.html for Feline Foster Mom Ellen from ScamperDude because Ellen and her husband have adopted Rocky Road after many, many months of fostering and rehabilitating her thru a tough illness. Rocky Road is a special-needs, beautiful cat, but Ellen did not think she would get adopted and they really love Rocky Road.
Thank you.
Ellen and Rocky Road say Happy Birthday too.
Bonnie in Virginia
Waouh!! What a yummy cake! Happy birthday to you, it is dificult after 25, I agree!
I can host in november only, if you need it, maybe the first week end of the month?

Your birthday cake looks absolutely beautiful.
Mr. Mao would love to help Tiggy blow out your candles (if he can get his sleepy head out of his basket!)
