Unfortunately, Mom thinks that because SHE loves hats that I do too. WRONG! I don't! But....when I heard that my furiends over at Basil's Blog were having a blogging tour to raise funds for kitties in need. I had to purrticipate.
The money raised will help kitties at the Burton Joyce Cat Rescue (where most of the kitties at Basil's came from), I told Mom I would be more than happy to purrticipate. You can read the details on Basil's blog right here.
I received my hat from my furiends over at Timmy Tomcat and Mom was chomping at the bit to put it on me.....oh was she excited!! Me? Not so much, but if it helps kitties, then I am all for it!

ALL MEW NEED TO DO, IS FEATURE THE BOBBLE HAT* ON YOUR BLOG AND THEN SEND IT ON TO ANOTHER WILLING PURRTICIPCANT. THE MORE BLOGGERS WHO FEATURE THE HAT THE MORE MONEY WE RAISE FUR THE KITTY RESCUE.
We will be sending the Bobble Hat on to the next kitties on the tour by the end of next week! Hang tight!!!
Now, because I had to wear a hat, Mom decided that she would join me. The next hat is the infamous
PUSSYHAT PROJECT
GLOBAL OUTREACH
The Pussyhat Project was about making a powerful visual
statement at the January 21, 2017,
Women’s March on Washington, D.C. But
there’s a whole lot more to this. At its core, this project is about:
1. Creating a concrete, accessible, thoughtful way for those
who cannot attend activism events in person to be heard and represented
2. Developing meaningful, respectful connections among people
who care about women’s rights, and
3. Creating a framework for community and personal agency
from the local to the national level.
And we have just begun to achieve these goals. Because of the
hundreds of thousands of people involved in the Pussyhat Project so far, the
Pussyhat has grown into a symbol of support and solidarity for women’s rights
around the globe.

Mom wanted to get involved and desperately wanted a Pussyhat to show her support but: 1) Mom can't knit to save her life 2) Mom had no clue where to go to get a hat. Thankfully that dilemma was short-lived! Mom and I were reading our friend Ducky's blog and saw that Ducky's Mama was making Pink Pussyhats!!! Mom immediately contacted her and asked what she had to do to get one. All Mom had to do (that she would do ANYWAY), is make a donation to Planned Parenthood, and then Ducky's Mom would make her a hat and send it to her!! Mom was thrilled!! Here is Mom in her Pussyhat!
Mom rarely lets anyone see her with no makeup and she was too lazy to put it on Hence the sunglasses! |
Mom would like to give a HUGE thank you to Ducky and his Mama for this most pawesome hat!!! Mom and I LOVE it!!!
You're both rockin those hats!!
ReplyDeleteLovely hats! If I could pick one animal that had the best facial expressions, it would be the cat, hands down! :)
ReplyDeleteMy human is not big on knit caps (she will donate to Planned Parenthood sans headgear)... but I don't mind wearing them!
ReplyDeleteSuper hats - and all in a good cause, Cody.
ReplyDeletePurrs ... Rainbow

Your mum looks good in that hat. Glad she likes it. Mum makes hats but she doesn't like to wear them!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! Mom had it on all day yesterday, then when Daddy came home it was still on. She was having a serious talk with him while wearing the hat and he said "It's hard to take you seriously when you are standing here talking in that hat." MOL! Plus, Mom had pink PJ bottoms on that matched the hat MOL! Thanks soooooooooo much again, Mom LOVES the hat!!!
DeleteYou mom looks fab in the hat and pink IS her color!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much but that is mostly because you can't SEE Mom in the photos!! MOL!!!!! And...that's funny cause Mom isn't always a huge fan of pink....it depends! This pink she LOVES!

DeleteBoth of those hats are fantastic and so are their causes. I am not a hat person, but I started donating to Planned Parenthood in "honor" of Mike Pence.
ReplyDeleteYou both are stylin'!
ReplyDeleteWhoot! What a great way to show off that hat, Cody!! And we think your kitty hat if great too, Caren!
ReplyDeleteWe thought were supposed to get that hat next?? Hmmm, we wonder when it will show up here...or did our name get misplaced off that list of pawticipants?
