Merry Xmas and Purrfect New Year

As 2010 comes to a close, it's time to reflect on the past year and look forward to a new year ahead. Our wishes for 2011 are that more people will adopt the stray cats and give them a loving home, and that pet owners will also be responsible for the welfare of their cats (i.e keeping them indoors, sterilising them etc). For example, I saw a scruffy white cat in my neighbourhood 2 months ago and then recently it disappeared. A lady told me the cat was abandoned by a family when they moved and it was left alone to fend for itself. No one knew what happened to it... I thought why would you leave your kids behind when you move?

We humans are here for a purpose - to look beyond our differences and work together to protect the weak and this beautiful planet Earth. God knows how long we'd see that day but we pray that we don't have to wait too long before it's too late. We all have a part to play - one step at a time, we can create ripples in our own ways... do what's right, and not what's easy. let your conscience and consciousness guide you in this new year and bring about positive change. Have a purrfect 2011 ahead. Love one, love all  =^.^=

Purrfect 5th anniversary

Ho ho ho, with the festive mood in the air, we've bundled our 2010 postcards at $10 for 8 to raise more money to the CWS kitty fund. So far, a few orders have come in but not fast enough! :) I know we also wanted to organise a cat photography workshop but the corporate company that I approached did not get back to me, arghhh. 

And please remember to take more cat photos on your year-end trips or during the school holidays in S'pore. Before you know it, the exhibition in June 2011 will come round soon (photo submission deadline is the end of April 2011). For our 5th anniversary, we have ambitious plans; firstly we are introducing 2 new categories - Celebrities and Children (under 16) - in addition to the open category. Our photo criteria remain the same (just scroll down the webpage).

The Arts House also gave us the green light for our cat-theme Saturday Purrzaar market. We're looking for unique/ original, cat-themed crafts, artwork, accessories etc and the small rental fee ($50 for 2 Saturdays) will go to Cat Welfare Society too. We hope to better our fundraising target of $3,500 set in 2010, and again we need all the support from you cat lovers. Email your cat photos, postcards orders or vendor application to sublime.carla@gmail.com

Have a purrfect XMAS and New Year!
