Winky's New Vacuum!!

I had a surprise waiting for me on my porch yesterday afternoon!!!

Winky Won!!!!!

Hi All!!! Winky won her segment (segment 9) of the 12 segment Bissell Pet Photo Contest!! She was in the lead by over 100 votes -she had 938 votes!! the second place dog had 800 votes!!! Thank you all for your support. Winky also had a lot of friend on Face Book that helped network for her. I also spent a lot of time emailing, networking, etc on behalf of Winky and Operation Catnip. So...what's next. Winky moves on to the final round. She will be one of 60 animals (out of many thousands!) to be presented to representatives of Bissell. They will then choose 5 winners. Grand prize gets $10,000 for their charity, a $500 shopping spree, and their picture on one of Bissell's pet vacuum boxes. The prizes decrease in value with 5th place getting $1000 for their charity. The final winners should be announced on or around April 10th. In the mean time, if WInky is declared the official Segment 9 winner, we win a $25 visa gift card and a new Bissell Vacuum (we would have 4 different ones to chose from).

There is a cat named Montecore entered into the current contest (3/12 - 3/18). He is entered on behalf of the Feral Cat Foundation. A group based out of California that is similar to Operation Catnip.
Vote For Montecore

hi everybody

sorry for my lack in posting... not too much going on - other than snow. we have had quite a bit of snow lately. Enough that they closed work twice!!!

the adventures of Cindy and Larry are going well. They recently took a trip down to Clearwater, FL. They had a great time walking the beaches. Larry even found a Star Fish!!!!

oh...they also went to "The Holy Land Experience" and said it was wonderful. Mom cried the whole time. She said she got lucky when they were at the Last Supper, cause she was seated next to another cryer!

well...that is about it. I hope all is well on your end...wherever that may be! have a happy Valentine's Day!
love,
Shannon
