"Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat.*

*Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll

Last week Nancy at N.R. Williams, Fantasy Author offered a choice of three different awards to her recent new followers, of which I am one.

Given the title of this post, you're probably not surprised I chose this one:


I love cats, even though I'm allergic to the little sweeties. So I enjoy them in other ways.

Not only do I love cats, but I'm lazy. This was the only award choice that didn't come with requirements that I actually DO anything :)

Since Nancy passed the award to new followers, I'll do that as well. If you see your photo included in the mug shots in the right column, this award is for you. If you become a follower anytime this week, this award is for you.


All you have to do is smile.

I'm not allergic to cats, but we discovered the hard way that my son is.

My wife is allergic to cats too. Otherwise we would have one or two. Maybe we can get one of those hairless cats.

Ah! I love this quote.
Alice: Which road should I take?
Cat: Where do you wish to go?
Alice: I don't know.
Cat: Well then, either road will take you there

Now powerful is that?

Good post girlfren.
Carol Kilgore saidā€¦
Conda - Cool. Does Puck like kitties?

I love that smiling kitty! And it cracks me up that you picked the 'easy one' and are honest enough to say that's why *snort*

That is a CUTE award! Congrats Carol!
Carol Kilgore saidā€¦

Lydia - That little kitty makes me smile every time I look at it.
Linda Kage saidā€¦
Ahh, the best kind of award. Just accept it and be happy, no passing it on, no filling out lies or truths about yourself, no giving up your firstborn. Sounds like a winner. Love the picture.

Congrats!!!

Congrats. I love the do nothing awards!
Lola Sharp saidā€¦
I wish all awards came sans requirements. :)

I'm allergic too, yet we have a cat now...and I am so in love with her it's embarrassing. So, I drink a lot of liquid Benedryl (sp?) and wash my hands after petting her (and careful not to touch my face until I get hands washed)...yeah, I still itch and sneeze, but it's super worth it. She makes me silly happy. (I love my dogs, too...but I swear, she's different.)

Have a delightful weekend, Carol! :)
Hugs,
Lola
Talli Roland saidā€¦

Congrats on the award! I didn't care much for cats before until my two kitties found me. They adopted me ;) Now I'm a sucker for cats! My husband and I love both cats and dogs. Thank heavens we're not allergic so we can enjoy them. :)
