Mail Call Monday

Wow - another mail-rific weekend! We got a package in the mail on Friday from Samantha and Mr. Tigger, for winning their 400th post scavenger hunt. And then on Saturday a package arrived from Beau. Unfortunately we Mommy and Daddy were busy all weekend, so we didn't get to open anything till just this morning!

First we opened the package from Samantha and Mr. Tigger - Pearl decided to check out the packaging first.

Nope - nothing left in here!
Then Bert looked over all the goodies:

Wowie look at all this cool stuff
There's a super cool "Self Warming" mat (that Pearl has already claimed as her own) and three different toys, a fev-ver butt, a cat nip and a stringy frog toy - they are all super! Thanks so much you guys, this is so cool!

Now, Mommy didn't let us help open the second package, cause it was fragile. But look what was inside, our very own squillion kitten! We've named him Sammy, short for Samich (which is the same name as our virtual squillion, but we think it will be easy enough to keep them straight).

Here's Sammy hanging out on the boogie mat
Pearl decided that she really liked him, she wanted to play - she even tried to bunny kick him!


I thought I'd better check him out, since I'm the ManCat of the house. I snuggled right up to him and gave him a nice hello.

It's ok little buddy, I'll take care of you
That was enough excitement for Sammy, so he decided to decided to check out our kitty grass, but he didn't really like it. But he did really like the window sill, so we've decided that it can be his regular home.

You Kitties Are Smart!

Holy Cow - we got such a great response from our quiz! We're flattered that so many kitties knew so much about us!

And we have the winners of the trivia contest - but there are a few more winners than we originally expected. It turns out that Mommy accidentally put in a few trick questions...

The answer for question #5 was supposed to be Pearl, she escaped for a whole day out in the snow, but she had forgotten about the night that Jake was out in the snow too! So we decided that both answers are right!

The original answer for #7 was B-Daddy, but so many kitties answered C-Stinky Goodness, that we decided to do a test. So Mommy had Daddy sit on the floor across from some stinky Goodness, sadly Daddy lost. But we decided that both answers are right (even though Daddy is a bit sad about that).

The answer to question #11 was Pearl, one of her nicknames is Principessa, but Mr. Hendrix guessed Bert, because he's called Mustachio - and that's kind of right too!

And as for the bonus questions, we've never actually said on the blog what breed of dog George is, she is indeed an Airedale Terrier. Wow, all you kitties sure do know your woofie breeds.

Jeeze, we would have thought that Mommy would know more about us - but you guys showed her!!!

So here's how the winning turned out:
Dragonheart and Merlin had the first correct answers, they got everything but the Stinky Goodness question (which is now a right answer) - so they are the winners!

Queen Snickers and Empress are the runner's up - they missed the Stinky Goodness and the question about which one of us got locked out - but they did get both bonus questions correct!

We're giving special prizes to Chance and Mr. Hendrix, they both knew that Daddy is Jake's favorite, and they each got a bonus question right.

And of course Miss Peach and The Furry Kids each get prizes for knowing that George is an Airedale!

So I think we have addresses for most everyone, we definitely need addresses for Miss Peach and Chance. So if you could email us at pbandjkitties@gmail.com we'll get your prizes out!

Update: The auction for the greeting cards to benefit Lilly Lu has ended! And Samantha and Mr. Tigger are the winners, bidding 20 green papers! Way to go all you kitties!
