THE MANGO MINSTER 2011 CONTEST

Hey Kitties [and woofies], Mango and Dexter are having a great contest ~ right now! 

Just click here to read the rules and enter.  And if you want to visit with

Mango and Dexter at their blog, just click here. 

I decided to enter cause even tho they are dogs 

there's a special entry called "KITTEHS" and that's what I am! 

First off, I went to visit Mango ~ you know he is big, really BIG! 

But as big as he is, I wasn't a scaredy-cat, cause he is real gentle and laid back. 

At 230 pounds and eating up to 15 pounds of food each week ~ I'd be like

an hors d'oeuvre to him.  By way of introduction

(I was always told it was polite to bring a gift when visiting) I took him some mangoes...

I'm a Florida girl, and around here the mangoes just fall from the trees. 

 As part of the contest, Mango asked some questions about us "kittehs" ...

I've answered a few here with words and pictures.

QUESTION: When your human calls your name do you feign interest

or outright ignore them?

Below are three of my ways to respond, or not, as the case may be.

 QUESTION: A moth is in the house.  Do you kill it and consume it,

or toy with the hapless thing, etc. ?

Consume it, not!  Toy with it, never!  Below, what I think about "other" creatures...

 QUESTION: Do you ignore expensive gifts, etc. ?

Never, ever, ever!  Wrap me, hat me, shoe me.  The purrtier the better.  More bling

and sparkle is good.  And jewelry: I must have my toof rings...

QUESTION: Do you bury your poop or build a mountain top, etc. ?

Friends, as you will note below, I am fastidious, meticulous, and whatever

other similar words you would find in a thesaurus if you looked... in short,

I am a polite cat and really prefer not to discuss poop (I've no idea who put

the word dingleberries in that photo below... horrors.)

 

In closing I would like to show two of my fave photos ~ and these same two

represent my mantra and my blogs mantra, so to speak:

Here I am, in the palace of Versailles, in my best Bonaparte costume:

he is famed for having said and I agree:

"Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever." 

Me, always looking for a smile or a laugh, so my blogs mantra is often

"Send in the clowns."
