Thanks to my friend Diane, I got to hold a box full of kitties the other day. Diane is a kitten foster mom; she helps get abandoned kittens healthy enough for adoption. Whenever she has a new batch, I drop by for the appropriate amounts of fawning and “They’re so cute!”
Perfect timing, too, because I’m about to be all about the cats.
Next Thursday night, I’m hosting a Twitter party for Purina® Cat Chow®. They are supporting the fight against breast cancer with their Cat Nap for a Cause. Just drop by their Facebook page and pledge to take a nap with your cat, and they’ll donate $2 — $1 for you and $1 for your cat — to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, up to $150,000 total.
Our Twitter party is all about raising awareness of the Cat Nap for the Cause. Purina will be giving away cool stuff, like blankets, cat scratching posts and even Flipcams!
