…Ellen P. of 15andmeowing ! Ellen got 14 of 16 Andy’s right!
Enjoy Andy and Dougy’s mugs on your mugs, Ellen!
I don’t know how to characterize Ellen’s blog other than to say it is cat-terrific! She reviews kitty products; shares her list of follows on a special page so you can easily find other cat-centric blogs (as if we ever can find too many, eh?); and is very involved in promoting charities that benefit our fur buddies.
Congratulations, Ellen! As soon as you tell me where to mail them, I’ll send you the Andy and Dougy mugs, first (and only) prize in my first ever (and probably only) blog contest!
=(^+^)=
The correct answers now can be found on the contest page. It goes without saying (so I do!), the contest is officially over.
Cngratulations to Ellen.
Yes, she did a super job identifying the Andy photos1
Congratulations to Ellen, Doug!
She did a super job sorting the kitty boys out!
Congratulations Ellen !
Her prize is on its way!
Thank you!!! I am so happy to have won and thanks for the compliments on my blog. Happy Birthday too!
Congrats to Ellen & happy birthday to you !
Congratulations to Ellen! Well deserved! And a very Happy Birthday to you! 🙂
I went to the contest page to look at the correct answers, and I STILL can’t tell them apart! I guess you do like mothers can tell their identical twins apart. 🙂
Don’t feel bad, Amy! They definitely look a lot alike, yet they usually are easy to tell apart in person. (Just this morning, I snatched Dougy up thinking he was Andy. I had to get him in better light to check out the eyes, but they way he tried to get away from me was second clue that spared him a mouthful of medicine!
Oh, maybe a colored collar for Andy while he is taking medicine!
They’ve never worn collars in their 5+ years of life. It is a good idea, however, if they’d tolerate collars.
A ribbon?
A tattoo?? I usually keep them straight. It’s when I encounter them in the dark that I have a problem.
Concats to Ellen. A fantastic lady and valued member of Blogville. She deserves the mugs. I think I got 6 right out of sixteen…if that but it was fun trying to get them right.
You’re 69! You don’t look it. It must be the beard. Now If I could only grow a beard…hehe Happy birthday my friend. Have a great day.
Jean
Thanks, Jean! I feel like I’m early 30s from the knees up, and well over 69 from the knees down! Fortunately, the part that helps me sort things out and to maintain a positive attitude is in the “above the knees” part!
I agree with you about Ellen. She did an amazing job of identifying them because I threw in some traps, big meany that I am – photos where the eyes weren’t true colors or one where Andy was in the box and Dougy was outside it, the opposite of the usual situation.
I made Apple sauce and blueberry pancakes
You inspired me
As Sheldon Always
I hope you enjoyed them, Sheldon! It’s a happy way to get your fruit and deal with the gacky-sweetness of pancakes, something I personally don’t enjoy.
conga ratz two phoebe N crew !!! well deserved; we noe mom ellen & dad R goona lovez de mugs !!!! HOORAY for them 🙂 ♥♥
Great! One for each on! Ellen sent me her address, so I will mail her prize to her today.
Just got back from the answers … Oh my, I would have failed miserably! Serious congrats to Ellen!
It was a major coup for Ellen! The next best guesser was someone who actually helped care for the kitty boys last year during my hospitalization and rehabilitation. She thought she shouldn’t enter, but I thought she’d be surprised how poorly she did. Turned out she got 13 of 16 Andy’s. God thing there was only the one prize!
Congrats to Ellen! Now I’m going to check out her blog … And the who is who on the answer section.
Have fun! It’s much more obvious with the identifications. Not being funny there. When you see them identified, some of their characteristics become more obvious.
Congrats to the winner! Bravo Ellen !
And I raise my mug to wish you a happy birthday, Doug! Bon anniversaire !
In friendship
Michel
Thank you, Michel! Hard to believe I am 69 years old now. On the oher hand, I’ve had enough serious medical issues since age 55 that 69 is a blessing and a miracle!
I understand what you mean , Doug.
My knees aren’t fatal, fortunately, just a pain in the, well, knees!
I understand what you mean, Doug . I believe we are on the same boat but I am much older !
We’re not old, we’re just ripe! LOL! Andy just stopped by to tell me to tell you “Mrow!”
Hope all is well in your garden and home!
Congratulations to Ellen.
It was pretty difficult to get that many correct, I think, unless you actually met the kitty boys.
Good thing I didn’t enter – I would have been tied with Ellen. I thought I could tell by the eyes, but I was wrong on two of the pics!! Oh well, maybe next time…..
I set the rules up so the first one to get them all right (or the most right) got the mugs, so you still could have won if you sent the first e-mail with 14 of 16 Andy’s.
I’m still a winner – I get to see both boys every day!!
I try to keep that schedule, and, lately, have one pretty well. It’s the least I can d for the kitty boys’ s!
