To help people cope with the ‘Winter Blues’ we thought that
it would be fun to have photo contest!
For the month of February, 2018, we asked our clients and friends to
send in their ‘Cat In A Box’ photos. The
response was overwhelming!!!! We had
people sending in photos from British Columbia, Timmins, Barrie, and all
throughout London!!! Thanks to everyone
who entered!!!!
Quickly, we realized that we had to do something to
recognize all the out-of-London photos, so we decided to award two additional
small prizes that can easily be mailed – on top of the three Grand Prizes that
we put together for our London winners!
On top of that, we also made one special prize for the
person who was the first to respond to our contest!
This is Wesley’s ‘Cat In A Box’ photo! Thanks for being the first to enter!!!!
We awarded Wesley’s two cats with a bag of GO! Duck Recipe
cat food for getting involved so quickly!!
London & Area Photos
Here are all the photos that were sent in throughout London,
Ontario…
This is Emerald!
Pamela told me that her cat can’t sit still in a box… but it will pose
nicely for a photo if she’s in a sink…
...or a hand crafted basket!!!
This is Tog and I thought it was hilarious to learn that his
name is an acronym for The Orange Guy!!
Joanne was happy to see Tog’s photo, as she used to work at the Sear’s
Animal Hospital where Tog was a client!
Thanks for sending in Tog’s photo Maryla!
This is Patience! She’s
making sure her basket is comfy….
…for her nap!!!
When Patience isn’t relaxing in her in her basket, she can
be found cuddling under towels and blankets!
Looks relaxing!! Thanks for sending in these photos, Sarah!
A
shley sent in two photos for our contest! This is Samson!
This is Soot! Both
cats look like they are enjoying their Boxing day experience!!
T
his is
Luna having fun in her box! Thanks for
the photo, Mary Ann!
This is
Bear! Very ferocious!!!
I cracked
up when Emily told me that since she brought this box home, her cats Pingu
& Yogurt, have been ignoring their cat beds and have sleeping here!!
Tina sent
in this funny photo of her cat, Midnight!
I think the family will be playing Monopoly for a while… or until Midnight
finds another box to nap in!!
Oh
my! Clyde is ready for a vacation! He’s got himself all packed up!
And
speaking of vacations… this is Mr. White.
When his owners were preparing a package to be mailed to family in
Ottawa – filled with Christmas presents – it took Mr. White about 3 seconds to
find himself a nice comfy spot in the box!
And this
other photo of Mr. White just proves that box size doesn’t matter… a determined
cat can fit into anything!
Look out,
Lyndsie…. Eddie is watching you!!!
Even one
of the publishers of London’s Villager magazines got involved in this ‘out of
the box – in a box’ photo! Thanks,
Cathy!
This is
Sam’s little kitty, Viola, having a super comfy nap in a box filled with
blankets. I’m getting sleepy, all of a
sudden!
Hello
Ditzy! Thanks for entering our contest!!
Your mom,
Amanda, was right… you do love your boxes…and baskets!
WOW! This looks like a fun toy! I think Sammy agrees!!
It’s no
fair that mom and dad get to eat all the chicken pot pies and all Bogie gets is
an empty box!!! But I think he’s making
the best of this situation!!
This is
Minion! Super hide and seek player! Rarely found!!
Tabitha
thinks that Styrofoam peanuts make great catouflage!!!
After a
long day of napping and sunning, Milo likes to spend some time reclining in his
hammock-in-a-box!!!!
After
being rescued on a Friday in August, the new parents thought that it would be
appropriate to name their Royale Kitty, Sir Friday Augustine!!!

My friend from elementary and high school, Teresa, dressed her daughter

Pie! Hilarious!!

Out Of
Town Winners
To thank
everyone who entered our contest from across Canada, we decided to select two
of our favourite photos and award a catnip prize for each cat. These will be able to travel through the mail
system with no difficulty!!
Since
Sweatie Pie shows so much imagination and creativity we had to select her as a
winner!
And this
photo of Kazoo is just great!
Congratulations to both kittys!!!
Thanks,
again, to everyone who entered and to all Happy Tails’ followers who have been
enjoying all of these photos!!!
We will
have to do something like this soon again…..
