Thanks Mark & Victor. Looks like your help is making a difference. Sir Thomas has moved to first place!

I hope so.
I have my little kitty victories every day when I visit Love Meow and the Kitty donation places in my bookmarks.
They claim that each visit feeds a shelter cat.
I do so hope that is true, for then I have saved hundreds of kitties I could not touch otherwise.

I do physically go out to the local shelter and hold and cuddle the few that I am able to once in a while, and they have been the recipients of my gifts, large and small though they may be.
My two remaining kibblers are going on to their 15th year of life with me, and believe me, they are given more love and affection than most cats on this planet. And the wonderful thing is, they return it tenfold.

I am casually starting to wander the adoption pages, looking for a pair of bonded twins or something like that.
Not all would adopt two at a time, and I am almost ready to.
My wish is to save two who should not be torn apart. Although cats adapt readily, there are some situations where two are as one, That is what I wish to preserve.

My two sisters are closer than ever now that their sisterTigger has passed. They are almost inseperable sleeping together. Sometimes they look like one bundle of kitty. Oh, Lord, I do love my cats.

I also saved one the other day coming back home from work, I think.
Kitteh was shivering in the cold frozen street. Freezing rain for chrissakes.
I stopped the car and walked up to her.
She did not run. I picked her up and cuddled her for a few minutes. A rather large cat. Twenty or more pounds.
She then got restless and wanted to be put down, so I did so.
She wandered up to an apartment building, no lights on.
She pawed the door, so I knew it was her home.
I rang the doorbell. Minutes passed, and finally a light came on.
I had a few angry words with the man, but he let kitty indoors.
I was so close to a fistfight, I cannot tell you.
I basically told the man, either this cat is coming in, or YOU are going out. And I shall stand here all night to see you shiver on the ice in your driveway. It was a close one.
He let kitteh in and she confirmed my assertion of him as the owner by worming her way around his legs.
Some people should not be allowed to own a cat. This one would be an example.
If I have to knock on the freaking door at 1AM and ask him to let the cat in from the frozen street??????????????//
No way that man should have the luxury of owning a cat.
I came this close to calling and complaining to the town hall, but that is not my kind of thing, so I did not.
Yes, I am the kittyman.

They do call me the kittyman for a reason.



Meow. Meow. and Meow.

Sir Thomas Trueheart(Tommy) has the lead, but a cat named Tobey Moore is GONE, I did a search, He's not there anymore.

The closest cat now is Norrington Paddington Arnold w/14254 votes, vs Tommy w/74447 votes.

According to Michele, the mom of Sir Thomas, "Tobey has been pulled from the contest by his human - which we are sad about as we have been saying since day one every kitty in this contest deserves to win. According to Tobey's mom she and her family have been threatened which is horrid and disgusting. We have asked repeatedly for screenshots and names of people who have done this so that we can ban them from our FB page (if they are truly Milo's supporters) and report them to the authorities to be sent to us privately via PM. We have had one response and that turned out to be a contestant with another cat and not associated in anyway with Milo's Sanctuary.

We have posted here on Milo's FB page that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated and bullying, threats and nasty comments will be dealt with immediately from either side.

This is a contest folks, it's supposed to be about the cats and only the cats and yet nasty accusations and horrible things have been said on both sides and it's so heart-breaking.

Milo's Sanctuary is about love, hope and miracles and we have run our campaign that way from the beginning. If anyone has gone to other pages and made threats and accusations we want to know about it. On the other hand if anyone comes here and makes the same nasty threats and accusations we will delete and ban those comments.

We are sorry that Tobey was pulled and wish nothing but the best for his family.."

Seems that some of the people with cats lower in the ranking are accusing both Tobey and Sir Thomas of cheating. Michele has also received rude and threatening messages, but she had just deleted the messages and blocked the offenders. It's sad that people are being so rude simply because they don't have the same level of support or network as the leaders do.

Again thank you all for your help.

This sucks, I agree with Carlos, Tobey or any other cat does not deserve this.

I'm sorry to read/hear about these awful threats and bullying. I hope the authorities are brought in and that they are able to track down and arrest the culprits. (Assuming that once found that charges are brought and pressed by the victims.) This is INTOLERABLE!

God bless these cats and their owners/sponsors.

In light of these threats, I have done something that I haven't done before, (while allowed more votes I choose, usually to vote just once), I have voted again for Thomas to show my continued support.

Lost Tabby Found Swimming in Piles of Catnip Toys at Store
According to YouTuber SensualCat, the cat sauntered into the store "by accident" and "had the time of his life rolling around in catnip toys."

The mischievous feline zeroed in on where he wanted to go and headed straight there. Once he reached his treasure trove, he proceeded to flop down and frolic in the joy of nip.

Luckily, his human was informed about the kitty's little antic and came to the store to pick him up.
"So all's well that ends well," Sensual Cat says.
