It's My Birthday! Introducing Sock it to me Sunday!

Hey everyone, it's my birthday! I am 3 years old! I was trying really hard to think about what I want for presents. I really have everything I want. The love of my mom and dad and momma, a big fun family, a dog I can boss around, lots of toys and nip, lots of extra sharp cheddar cheese and lots of friends from the CB. I'm a lucky girl.Happy Birthday to MeWhat I love more than almost anything in the world is socks. Slightly used is better than clean out of the laundry basket. I like them by themselves or still on the foot. If you need a refresher on my love of socks, check this out. It's the reason I accepted the position of Secretary of Socks for the Cat Blogosphere.Show me the socks!

So to honor my birthday, this is what I'm asking. Please join me in cooperation with our furriends from Zoolatry, in a celebration of all things socks, "Sock It To Me Sunday". If you love socks too, now is the time to show it. If you've never given them the bitey...now is the time to try. Here are the rules:

1. Find a picture of yourself with a sock- you can be sleeping with it, playing with it, putting the bitey on it...no limits on your creativity.

2. Email the picture to our furriends at Zoolatry , let them know it's for Sock It To Me Sunday.


3. Please email the picture no later than Tuesday April 14th so the magic has time to happen.


4. Tune in on Sunday April 19th when participating kitties and their socks appear in the debut of Sock It To Me Sunday.

To get you started, my momma Ellie will bunny kick it off with an example...you can see the apple didn't fall too far from the tree! Thank you to Ann and her partners in creativity Maggy and Zoey for all my cool graphics!This is how it's done

Happy Birthday, Cory! Have a wonderful day ! We don't get to play with socks on feet. We might hurt Dads and he could get a nasty infection that would not heal.

Happy 3rd Birthday Cory! This is such a fun "gift!" I'll get right on it. I like playing in laundry, but have never specifically tried socks...I'll have to give it a shot!

Happy Birthday Cory! We hope you are having the bestest of all days!
As for socks - none of us has EVER taken even the slightest interest in one.... We don't know why that is - we also do not care for shoes at all either...
But we love sweaters and jackets.....

We sent Zoolatry a photo a while ago but we don't know what we're supposed to do. Are we supposed to post that photo on our own blog Sunday? Or do you post it? Or does Zoolatry? We haven't heard anything and it just occurred to us that Sunday is only a littler over 24 hours away.
