The 2010 Annual "Purr-fur-mance" Review!!

Hi All! Cody here and ohhh this is sooo much fun! I have been waiting nearly all of my nine lives for this! A chance to review my Mama on her blog "purr-fur-mance" (or the lack thereof!)

Here is a copy of the criteria for this review that I received from our friends Maggy, Zoey and Ann at www.Zoolatry.blogspot.com

And now...the moment I have soooooooooo been waiting for, sit down Mom, take a load off and pay attention, here is my review of YOU!


Quantity of Output-when Mom first started this blog back in October of 2009 she  was lucky if she posted once a month. In April of 2010 Mom started to get her act together and did posts 3 days a week, then gradually they began to increase. In the Fall/Winter she has been averaging approx. 5 posts per week. National exposure? Fame? Hehehe that's funny...did you forget this is CODY here? Not Sparkle, not Daisy, not Brian, not Mr. Puddy  (the list  goes on and on but before I really make Mom mad for accidentally leaving out other kitties (and doggies) that she loves as well, I'll stop here).  I DO give her 4 Paws for great improvement though!

Pam at Pet Blogs United created this for us and we love it!

Quality of Output-Mom needs to pull out the digital camera and get with the program. Yeah some of her photos are cute but I can find better quality in my litterbox. Yep, I equated her photos to poop. Plain and simple...POOP! Videos? Practically non-existent unless she swipes 'em off of YouTube (damn, the copyright Police should be over here in a few!!) The two my Mom created were lame...she needs to practice. For photos and videos she gets a HUGE SWAT!!!

•  Words? When I write the blogs they are great, when my Mom does? Not so much. Mom is extremely honest though and super caring. I think her topics offer a lot of variety, her book reviews are pretty darned good and her guest bloggers have been SUPERB!!! For this I think I give her FOUR PAWS UP!!

Client Pawticipation: yep! She gives all of her friends and (enemies) LOTS of ways to reach her! FOUR PAWS UP!!


Pawticipation Part II:  Mom tries to get involved as much as she has time for and she always tries to involve me as well! She and I have attended some great birthday pawties and other events.  She is super good about getting around to read lots and lots of the bloggies and is great about leaving comments. She is also one of the top Moms that shares other people's posts. I give her FOUR PAWS for  CARING!


Client Satisfaction: I know my Mom hopes everyone likes to come here when they visit. She welcomes suggestions, criticism (if it is said nicely, otherwise she will arch her back and hiss at ya. "Hell hath no fury like a Kitty Mama scorned", trust me...I know...I live with her!) She is honest and expects honesty in return, and she genuinely wants people to come to Cat Chat and be happy and comfortable while learning, laughing (and even sometimes crying),  and feel that it is a warm and caring place to be.


 If there are things she is not doing, or not doing well, or doing too much of, or not enough of, she sure wants to know. I can't rate Mom on that, our friends who visit us (who we deeply appreciate!)  will have to determine how many paws she gets for that one!


Well, that's my "Purr-fur-mance" Review Mom, and ya know what? Ya didn't do too bad after all! There is HUGE room for improvement but no matter what, I believe in my heart, from my whiskers to the tip of my tail that you LOVE kitties soooo much, you LOVE what you do, you give it everything ya got and you sure get FOUR PAWS in my book for effort! Don't let it go to your head though, I don't see any more cat toys or "noms" coming my way as a result of your "EFFORT!!"

This ISN'T Cody, hence the GREAT photo!

Psssst....now go learn your darned cameras would ya? All of the other pet bloggers run rings around ya!   Slacker.....
