MEOW! What a pawty! Congrats, Sammy, on one whole year of blogging. Your mom really went “all out” for the celebration! And Mom and I love, love, love that photo of you and your Mom!
Now….why I love One Spoiled Cat….well, besides the fact that you’re my boycatfriend…. Mom and I love seeing the obvious love between you and your mom and dad. We know they love you by all the special things they do for you, but you also show them your love by supervising all their outdoor work and keeping an eye on things when they’re away. Oh, and also keeping your Mom’s lap warm whenever she sits in her recliner.
You’re such a special cat, Sammy, and I’m glad to be your girlkittyfriend!

First, congratulations on your blogaversary, Sam! The reason I enjoy your blog so much is it always reminds me to stop and smell the roses. You would think with modern conveniences we would have a lot more “me” time but it often seems the faster I peddle, the more ground there is to cover. Your blog always helps me to stop, take a deep breath and remember Life should be FUN. Congratulations on a job well done!

Hiya Sammy. So sorry I am late to comment today but Mom took off with Dad on a new hike…and it took way longer than expected. In fact, I am having to help Mom type this, so I am doing the “enter” key when she needs it.
So first many concatulations for a whole year for your blog. Quite an accomplishment ‘cuz I know how much time it takes to do it every day. And second why I like your blog:
-you were my very first furriend when I started blogging so of course I followed you back
-you always offer me and Mom such great support through my paw steps forward and especially when I put a paw or two back.
Hope I win the cool gift stuff, but I hardly ever win things…paws crossed

Dear Sammy, It’s been a great year. Look, I need you to tell me something: How do you discipline her to blog every day? I just cannot get consistency of performance at this end. It’s very frustrating. Especially when I’m always two days late for a party. Ah,well.
I’ll be honest Sammy, I don’t get to read anyone’s blogs half as much as I should. World domination takes up a lot of time in the early stages. And I’m sometimes not sure that Deirdre realises that although she’s not getting any younger, I’m seven times less likely to get younger. At least I think that’s how it works. But you have got to be one of the friendliest, most pleasant bloggers I have every had the pleasure to read and pass the time of day and sometimes night with. I wish you every success with your future blogging and also with your store…where is it? Dying to have a look!

I hear ya…..I think the secret to getting her to do a daily blog for me is “THE LOOK”….you know what I mean…that pitiful stare we cats are ever so good at – I sit on the couch in her studio and look adorable every morning while she’s checking email and VOILA – before I know it she’s done my blog for me. Magic. Besides, remember she’s retired and has lots of time on her hands for catering to my every need!
