Purring to be Nominated for The Petties 2011 Pet Blog Awards!


As I recently mentioned, I'm packing up the cats (not literally, I'm pretty sure they don't really appreciate traveling) and heading to Tysons Corner, VA at the end of August for BlogPaws 2011, a blogging and social media conference dedicated to you guessed it - pets!

As part of the festivities, Dogtime is hosting the 2011 Petties Awards, an annual celebration recognizing excellence among animal-loving bloggers of all stripes. The Petties are the only awards nominated by, voted for, and presented to individuals in the pet blogging community.

The best part is, that winners will receive a $500 donation to the shelter of their choice, as their way of saying thanks for making a difference!

Priscilla's adorable little tongue is hypnotizing you into voting for us! (The story behind this photo could be a whole blog post in itself)

I work hard every day to make Catsparella one of the most unique cat blogs around by posting all the latest cat stories and updates, many of which you won't find anywhere else. Over the past 10 months (my 1 year anniversary is coming up on August 3rd!), I've written over 650 posts dedicated to bringing you the best in cat news, trends, interviews, videos, products, fashion, cupcakes, giveaways, reviews, and more!
