mani ,Before I vote may I ask a question ?
What does " multiple votes are allowed " mean?

 

[AbbysMom]

Multiple votes means you can vote for more then one. In this case you can vote for 7.

Dang! I fell off the alerts again! so I didn't know about this one. I've voted, though

(Too late to enter, but beloved angel Sammi would have proudly entered THIS one)

 

[nurseangel]

I am with tarasgirl06 . Why so few votes? What did we ever do to you, mani ?

And Norachan you are so sweet, and I hate to lecture you, but please stop feeding the raccoons.  DH got a talking to from the vet about it. Remember at first glance when you thought a raccoon was one of those cute things that brings good luck? Then you were horrified? Perhaps it would be best if you went back to that stream of thought.

There are few votes because there are only 21 entries, nurseangel . Not mani 's "fault" at all. But I do wish we wouldn't fall off the alerts for the contests. I would have loved to have entered Sammi angel.
As for the raccoons, agree 100%. Wildlife are most often harmed, if indirectly, by being fed by humans. Much better to let them find their own food, unless they are in danger of starvation, which is an entirely different matter.

I believe nurseangel was only kidding mani and just having some fun..

I had such a hard time picking which to vote for. Why did everyone have to make it so hard for me?!

They're all difficult, KittyCat_chitchat . I always say ALL of them are PURRaiseworthy!

I think we need to lighten up on the racoon front.. they're not 'being fed'.. they're stealing the cat food. It probably happens rarely (do you realise how many cats Norachan has to feed?) and it's a light-hearted joke.

And as for nurseangel 's 'not enough votes' issue.. I'd be concerned if she didn't complain about it.

Happy voting everyone!

Ah, well, that's different. Understand completely!
And yeah. You know we all want to vote for all the cats. But that wouldn't be much of a contest, would it?

 

[nurseangel]

Yes, it's all in fun. Picking on mani is what I do best! I cannot resist. As for Norachan , I should be ashamed of myself. I am kidding her because of the first time she saw a raccoon. She thought it was this very cute creature they have where she lives. And I am somewhat going off the rails a bit today. I am sorry.

This is who she thought it was! Somebody adorable! Then it turned out to be a raccoon. Look at his little ears. His little ears!

I have to defend myself, I'm not deliberately feeding the raccoons. They're fiendishly intelligent little beasts who worked out how to climb over the enclosure fence, come in through the cat door and eat the cat's food all by themselves. They'd been doing this for weeks before I caught one in the kitchen.

I'm not really sure how to discourage them, so all I can do is lock the cat door at night and put a bowl of leftover cat food outside of the enclosure so they don't feel the need to climb in.

I thought he was a Tanuki! Tanuki are very polite though, they would never come in without being invited. Look at the cute little beast out in the woods foraging like they are supposed to.

And look at the cheeky raccoon, waiting outside of the door for us to turn our backs so he can raid the fridge.

There's a park close to my Condo Community and they had it closed recently to rebuild and redo-Thst was at the time I was feeding Timmy outside and oddly he wasn't there a few times so I left his food - seemed odd becausd he doesnt eat unless Im petting him & the food was disappearing

Well one night lo & behold there was a good 30 pounder sitting there and he was very aggressive-he met the broom 3nights and learned his lesson- Timmy resumed his normal routine.... I realized that's why Timmy was not waiting ,Rocky Racoon was chasing him off- normally raccoons and cats co-exist peacefully unless there's food competition.... this guy apparently came from tye Park and some morons have probably fed him before -dangerous

I do love raccoons but not when they steal the cats food- anyway,you can't even spray Criiter Rid becsusd it will deter the cats as well..... brooms are quite effective,lol

tarasgirl06 we don't have alerts for the start of specific threads.. but POM is usually set up around the middle of the month and is featured on the homepage.

He's no problem at all. He's come almost every night for the past 5 years and he's never bothered the cats. I've caught him on video dozens of times just munching away on cat food and totally ignoring them.

Just more cat food $$$,right ? Lol

When you're feeding as many as I am one more doesn't make much difference.
