As I was about to write to you this morning I noticed that this was my eight hundredth post!
On January 18th, 2010, only six people read my first post and I was discouraged but as I continued to share my pet sitting adventures along with stories about my pets (Henry, Buster, and Daisy) I amazingly gained more and more readers who have made my life whole for three and a half years.
I don't have as much time to comment on your posts as often as I'd like due to time constraints but I do read them! Lately I've found that it is much easier to comment frequently on your Facebook pages because I am obsessive about checking it (who isn't?).
So to celebrate the number 800 I am going to give everyone a chance to win a copy of Homer's Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned about Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat to honor Homer's life that sadly came to a close last Wednesday at 16 due to health complications. You can read all about Homer on his Facebook page here. I've read this book myself and loved it and I'm sure you'd agree!
How do you win this book, you ask? Just leave a short congratulations-type comment here, on my pet sitting Facebook page, or via e-mail if you follow me via RSS.
I will put all of your names in a bowl(perhaps a fish bowl?) and announce the winner on Saturday, August 31, at 9:00 a.m.! So sorry but this contest is for US readers only!
Let the games begin!
Whoooa!!! That's lots of words

Thank you, Old Kitty, for reading! I read your blog often but don't have much time to comment much but I read the posts! It is terrible about Homer but he had a great life w/a wonderful lady!
DeleteHi Teacher's Pet! I think I was one of your early followers because I have read almost all of those 800 posts. Congrats on reaching such a milestone - and keep up the good work.
