And on the 12th day of the contest Elvira looked at her position, and said... #*%@!
I know, I know...Not very Lady Like...hee, hee! ;-D
It has been a couple of weeks since I announced my entrance in the That Darn Cat contest in the Orange County Register newspaper, and humbly asked for your support.
{{{{ Thank You, everyone who has voted, and added the Cool Badge, by Zoolatry, to their sidebar! }}}}
I awoke, this morning and checked in on the contest, voting for a few of my faves among the other 580 contestants, as I checked my position.
Despite the fact that Whicky Wuudler The Everycat, in his wisdom, pointed out to other voters that I am a " Total Saucepot ", and Rose & The Royals praised my IMPRESSIVE " Curriculum Vitae " ...I am mired in a very distant 28th Place. ;-D
As of this morning the Top 10 Vote Getters are:
1. 14,178 (Giving new meaning to the term "Stuff the Ballot Box!" (Totally allowed, mind you.) this Kitty can't stand on its own...needing a stufffed/cooked Turkey as a prop, and no story.
2. 9,423
3. 7,400
4. 5,765
5. 2,615
6. 2,204
7. 1,770
8. 1,380
9. 1,107
10. 1,000
#20 has 500 votes, and me, Elvira Mistress of Pussydom, The Most Delightful Saucepot in Orange County?
Possessor of the absolutely most IMPRESSIVE "Curriculum Vitae" found outside the Advertising, & Back Pages of the outspoken, and informative, alternative OC Weekly Magazine (They like us, & we think that's cool!)?
I have just a measely 260 votes. ;-D
With several contestants coming up hard on my tush. ;-D
You know what my problem is?
Being a Young Republicat I knew my photo might be a problem in some of the more Conservapuss circles of this county.
Plus, some folks (Feline & Human) just don't know how to Google the term "Curriculum Vitae", and find out just what the hell it actually means! ;-D
Theoretically the Judges, who choose the other of the 2 winners, know what it means, whoever they are, and I still have a chance, so cross your paws! ;-D
There is still plenty of time for those who like my photo, and Bio, to show your support ( No need to feel guilty about Stuffing the Ballot Box! ).
Go here to Register, Vote, & Comment !
The contest runs thru May 11th.
For those asking why I, Nikita, and Daddy Kiril, are not voting for me...We wouldn't want it on our consciences if I won, and had to explain to The Ceiling Cat, or The Lord Almighty, on Judgement Day, why we three were the only ones to vote for me...hee, hee! ;-D
We demand a recount!
Thanks for participating in Weekend Cat Blogging.
Hope this will help pick up some last minute votes.
We'll pulling for you!

Well, if a total Saucepot, with an impressive "Curriculum Vitae" doesn't get the judge's votes, what chances does anyone... or any Cat have?
I wore mine little paws out typing in those stoopid phrases an finking how I was helping Elvira, mine Tortie sisfur.
Fourteen-thousand votes???
How do they do it???
How many Cats do they haf typing back theres???
There's jus no way I can catch up to that, even wif Faith Boomerang helping me.

Thank U for the support, and I, Nikita, and Daddy, agree with you.
We, too, have no idea how they do it, or how anyone has the time to spend posting that many votes.
Sort of takes the fun out of it for the rest of the contestants when you discover that there are people who can produce so many votes.
You notice how few Cats have votes even in the low triple digits?
I appreciate the support, but don't expect anyone to drop important things to vote.
It's turning into quite the Life Lesson for this 1 year old.
