When Pamela over at Something Wagging suggested a Pet Blogger Gift Exchange wherein you are paired with a blogger you get to know and then share “encouragement, compliments, and a little bit of link love” in a blog hop, I said Hell Yeah.
Sign. Me. Up.
Then I got an e-mail from Pamela telling me I was paired with Cokie the Cat’s blog.
WTF?
A. Cat. Blog.
I almost wrote back, um, excuse me Pamela? I write about….Dogs. Yes Pamela, Dogs.
Then I paused. In the spirit for which the blog hop was intended, I held my tongue and thought, my blog is titled Heart Like A dog, what would a dog do?
Stalk the cat?
No, no. Heart like a dog would give the cat blog a chance!!
Before I even had a chance to check out the blog, I received an e-mail from Kristin, Cokie’s mom. She introduced herself and Cokie of course and told me a little bit about herself.
1) She works in the film industry. (Can you say Jealous? I’m more of a daytime star kind of girl, but I do know who Jerry Lewis is and yes, she’s working on his latest film!)
2) Her second full-time job is a Special Projects manager for Blog Paws!! (Super excited about this, helloooo BlogPaws 2013 here I come!)
3) She’s a Twitter genius. In fact, she has a whole section on her blog with Twitter tips.
4) Kristin has a great sense of humor. She added me as her friend on Blog Paws and when I told her I’d already been snooping about her blog, she responded with “You’re nosing around my blog?? Well I’m gonna go rub my cheeks all over your! =^..^= Cokes”
5) She shares the love. The day after we met, she asked her followers on Twitter to follow Heart Like A Dog.
I discovered we also have some things in common.
- Just like yours truly, she recently moved her blog. Although she moved from Blogger to WordPress, where I only moved to self-hosted.
- She recently ran a photo contest on her blog.
- She wears many hats, besides cat mom, blogger, twitter genius….she also is the co-founder/writer for The Anipal Times.
Have you checked out Cokie the Cat yet? Well what are you waiting for. Go on over, say hello and tell them the dog sent you.
And did I mention, this is the Pet Blogger Gift Exchange hosted by Something Wagging. Go check out the other cool blogs and see how Blogville shares the love.
