Wishing you all a very merry Christmas

A quick message to wish each of our Feline Friends a very Merry Christmas. I expect to be woken at the crack of dawn tomorrow by my boys rummaging through their stockings. Everyone will have stomach-aches from too much chocolate by mid-morning and the rest of the day will be spent playing games, arguing over whose turn it is, and smelling the wonderful aroma of roasting turkey. I can't think of a better way to spend a day!

For those of you who don't celebrate Christmas, then please know that I don't mean to exclude you. Whatever your reason for celebration (the arrival of a weekend is plenty cause for celebration in my household!), I wish you the very best.

Wishing each of you a day filled with good memories and chocolate!

Smiles, Shelley

Blog appearance

Blogger decided to play some games with us last night and substituted a template design of its own choice. We got lots of positive comments on the new "clean & simple" look so even though the change was unintended we've decided to move forward and try redesigning Feline Playful with a cleaner, simpler, more streamlined (and easier on the eyes) design. While we work on the "new & improved" look we've done our best to get the old template back (and boy has that been a struggle so please forgive all the minor and not-so minor changes). So keep an eye out for Feline Playful and its new look!

Smiles, Shelley

Feline Thankful blog party - Grand Prize Winners

I think we've kept you in suspense for long enough - it's time to announce the GRAND PRIZE winners from the Feline Thankful blog party and hop.

We had 140 people finish the blog hop and discover the secret message I AM FELINE VERY LUCKY. I will admit that some of the entrants played a bit loose with the word order (my favourite was VERY LUCKY FELINE AM I) but we weren't too picky.

Drum roll, please ......

Feline Thankful Blog Party

Hello everyone and welcome to our FELINE THANKFUL BLOG PARTY and HOP!! We are SO THRILLED you have chosen to party with us. We have organized this blog party to thank all of those who have joined us as followers - over 1800 of you and counting!! We want to say "THANK YOU" to all of you who have been so supportive of this wonderful blog that tracks over 500 challenges!

A very SPECIAL THANK YOU to KAREN HOWARD, who started this blog just over a year ago and actually ran it solo for quite awhile. Now a team of 14 ladies make up the DT for Feline Playful, led by SHELLEY and we continue to add NEW CHALLENGES almost daily including winners for those challenges, DT calls, blog candy and more.

We are hosting this BLOG PARTY to say "THANKS!!" to all our followers for their continuing support. We have joined forces with a very long list of FANTASTIC SPONSORS who have donated images, store credit/$ vouchers and Guest DT Spots to PARTY WINNERS.

There are 3 WAYS TO WIN:

1. JOIN THE BLOG HOP - Our blog hop starts September 21 at 9:00 am (GMT) - which just happens to be the International Day of Gratitude - and ends September 27 at 9:00 pm (GMT). Each DT member (we have both past and present DT members playing along) will be awarding prizes at the end of the week to random commentors on their blog. And commentors will also be entered into a GRAND PRIZE draw at the end of the week. The hop order will be as follows:

• Feline Playful (you are here!!)
• Abi
• Audrey
• Berenice R.
• CG
• Christi
• Dawn
• Erum aka E.T.
• Gemma
• Jennie
• Karen Howard
• Leesa aka The Navy Wife
• Lin
• Nancy
• Natali
• Shelley
• Shelly
• Zoe

Please remember to follow the order of the hop so that you don't miss any of the DT members posts. If you get lost along the way, please return here, to FELINE PLAYFUL to find the hop order. Most of all, have fun and remember to keep coming back to FELINE PLAYFUL for all challenge listings, etc. each day.

2. FIND THE SECRET MESSAGE - Each DT member on the blog hop will share a letter on their blog. To get your started, your first letter is "I". Once you have all the letters, unscramble them to discover a secret message. E-mail your answer to felineplayful@gmail.com All correct answers will be entered into a draw for a GRAND PRIZE.

3. VISIT FELINE PLAYFUL - Enter your name using Mr Linky and you will be entered to win one of our DAILY PRIZES. You only need to enter once to be eligible to win all week long (but you do need to be a follower of FELINE PLAYFUL please). At the end of the week we will also be selecting at least 1 GRAND PRIZE winner.

So what are you waiting for? Let's get this party started!!!
Dont forget to take the letter *I*!!

Add your name to Mr Linky (or if it isn't working properly, leave a comment and we'll make sure to include your name) and check back daily to see if you're one of our lucky winners. You only need to enter your name one time to be eligible for the entire week!

Feline Thankful blog party - grand prize teasers

Are you having a good time? I know that I'm thoroughly enjoying the party! It's been wonderful reading all the comments that are being left at the team blogs and I was blown away by the amazing projects that the team posted. Can you believe the talent of these ladies?

Alas, the party is nearly over - there are just a few hours left to finish off the blog hop (remember there are prizes at each stop along the way, plus a chance at a grand prize at the end) and to try out your luck here for the daily prizes. In the meantime, I thought I'd share a look at the grand prizes which will be drawn tomorrow. If you haven't qualified for the grand prize draws yet (by signing up on the Linky or finding the blog hop secret message) you are going to want to RIGHT NOW. Heck, I'm wondering if it isn't too late to quit the Feline Playful team so that I can enter (LOL).
