Week 10 of Kathleen Gage’s Community Challenge
You can’t talk about the BlogPaws community, without mentioning the Cat Lounge. If you’ve never been to a BlogPaws, I’m not sure I can explain…the Cat Lounge. But I’m going to give it a try.
The cat lounge is not a place where you’ll find cats lounging around, although they totally could.
What you will find however, is an awesome display of cat themed art. Items like this beautiful photo.

You’ll also find some of your favorite bloggers, making some cat themed crafts.

The cat lounge is also where the Honor flags are. I can’t say I actually KNOW what an Honor flag is, but based on the name, I think we can all take a pretty safe guess, that it is a flag honoring a pet that has gone to the bridge.
Perhaps the neatest thing of all about the Cat Lounge, is that every item in there, has been donated to the lounge, and every item in the lounge, is given away the last day of the conference, so no-one has to ship or carry it home.
Ms. Young was one of the folks who contributed her work to the cat lounge. I’ll let you in on a little secret, I may have picked up one of her photos for a Christmas gift for one of my daughters. 🙂
The cat lounge seemed like a real cozy place, I think I’ll plan on spending some time in there at the next BlogPaws.
Oh, and before I let you go, I need to announce the winner of the caption the photo contest.
My caption was…”Excuse me mom, but this dish seems to be empty.”
You guys did not make it easy at all. They were all so good, but the one that really made me laugh was from Meagan Maher who said, “Fine. I’ll do the dishes again.”
Thank you all for playing along, and many thanks and congratulations to Meagan! I’ll IM you to get that Amazon card to you.
That cat lounge is a different place. I actually won a prize there in Vegas! Mom says they have amazing things for cats that she had never imagined.
Pawsome caption!
The Cat Lounge does sound like a cozy place to hang out!
Congrats Meagan! Love that caption!!
The Cat Lounge is a clever idea. Would dog people feel comfortable there?
