Seven years of blogging down the drain. Yeah, it's my Blogoversary but there's nothing much to celebrate. Seven years out of both TW and my life. Seven years when TW's been too busy on the computer to play with me during the kitten years of my life. Seven years without a clean house. Seven years of posing. Seven years flushed down the toilet.
Don't get me wrong, we're thankful for the furrends we've made along with way—both TW and myself. I just figured by now I'd have friends AND have established myself as a name millions would recognize or at least made a few green papers along the way. I'm sorry we don't have a commenathon or giveaways on the agenda but hope you'll continue reading. Now back to our regularly-scheduled program, which is our Foto Frenzy.
For those eyes who are reading this hoping there will be a party, I hope you'll join in the fun and pick a number between 11 and 6471. We promise we'll publish your choice completely unedited and tell you a little bit about it. Plus you'll get a shout out and link back to your blog if you have one.

Today's foto frenzy fotos are both solo shots meaning TW didn't stand there clicking away like there was no tomorrow. This is an easy like Sunday with Pop. He isn't in the foto but that's the only time I lay on this chair when it's pulled out. It's known as my "sulk chair" when it's under the table. The peeps think I only go there when I'm sulking cos no one is playing with me.

This is a great foto to make into an art piece. Far away, it looks pawsome but up close you can tell it's got a bit of motion blur. Between the fact that TW wasn't using a flash and she was taking a closeup without a mackerel lens, any tiny move by her or myself would cause such a blur. I've got a perfect paw curl around the top of my Tree of Pain. Then I Thanks to everyone who's been reading and commenting over the past seven years. We love and appreciate you. Sometimes we get discouraged that no one is out there but we value those who come back to read every post and hope that we can make you laugh once in a while.
Now join me for some Greenies SmartBites and I'll call out for some fried mice.
Happy blogoversary, CK, even if you are sort of disappointed you aren't hugely famous. But you know, fame comes and goes. Does anyone ever talk about Sockington anymore? When was the last time you heard anything new about Grumpy Cat? So I guess fame isn't all it's cracked up to be.
ReplyDeleteHappy blogoversary! And I luv photo 490!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! I love your paw curl in photo # 490 :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! I wish you didn't sound so sad about it though, 7 years is something to be proud of and you have helped many cats by bringing awareness to their plights. I think if you helped even one cat that is a success and you have done lots more than that. We choose #6447 because that is our phone number.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary CK! Wow, seven years is a great milestone to reach. I love reading about you all everyday and you always make me smile even when I don't feel good. You have something special with your readers, you know them as friends and that is something to treasure. I pick 5461 as my photo. Love you lots CK xx
ReplyDeleteBFGF you are a party and I don't need more than that. Seven years is a long time to keep things real when fantasy is so much easier. Paw hugs and I pick 1229
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogaversary, CK! Seven years is awesome! You should be very proud of yourself and TW.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary, CK! We love you and TW. And we understand what you're saying. But thankfully you have many faithful readers and friends. You're sending out for friend mice? we're so there!

ReplyDeleteC.K., we've only been doing this four years, but sometimes we feel like you do...four years down the drain. We never planned to make any money so that's a good thing, but we didn't know how much time it would take for us to write for ourselves. With that said, HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY TO YOU...HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY TO YOU...HAPPY SEVENTH BLOGOVERSARY STUNNING KEISHA...HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY TO YOU. We wish you many more. Your art today is truly spectacular! XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! Congratulations on 7 years of blogging! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary ! Concatulations on your 7 years of blogging ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteOh CK we're so sorry you and TW are discouraged. We haven't been bloggin' nearly as long as you obviously, but we feel da same way a lot of da time. Mommy has had to do a lot of thinkin' this year. We started blogging less so she could spend more time with me and sis Lexi and now sis Raena. "course she'll also need da time to train Raena, but blogging less means less visits by us and to our blog. But we decided dat had to be okay. We's didn't have any money when we started this and we aren't gettin' any anytime soon. Mommy's so grateful dat we can at least get somethin' every month from Chewy to help supplement us. She's used to goin' without so she doesn't think about it much. But we come by to see your gawjusness and read your bloggy as offen as we can. We're a bit behind here lately, Raena seems to be takin' up a lot more time than mommy 'members any kitty takin'. But we's tryin'. Anyways, we don't care 'bout da shout out or stuffs, but we'll pick, nummers 4572 and maybe 7? Don't know ifin those have already been picked or not, so ifin so, then your choice. Big hugs to you all from all of us.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Raena

I know the feeling. It's been 18 months and yet I have not broken the internet or become a household name. The problem isn't me obviously, it's the quality of the help. When I was on the streets looking for a home ... I should've required writing samples before adopting my person. Alas, I am stuck. Happy Blogoversary :) ~Bear Cat
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary CK and Tw and Pop! I have to say, that top art photo is amazing. The colors, the slant of your eyes, the textures- all stunning.
ReplyDeleteI really don't know how you all blog so frequently and well- I have over 100 cats to choose from at PAWS and I only seem to be blogging once a week! Maybe if I wasn't so busy cleaning litter boxes and brushing cats, I'd have more time to photograph...
xxoo

Poor CK, you are as deprived as I am. It's not fair I tell you.Love that picture of you - it's high tech kind of art work.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! You're blogging royalty to us.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogaversary you two. Seven years is a long time. I was a year old when you started blogging. You must've been awfully young yourself CK. Remember fame is fleeting but friends are not. So enjoy us.

ReplyDeleteHappy Blogaversary CK.......it's a long time to be plugging away at your blog and you indeed have a LOT of fans following you along the way. We are always happy to see you looking so stunning in ALL your photos - and when you run out of other Foto Frenzy picks and need one, how about #17??? That's how old I'll be my next birthday - feels like a lucky number.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
