What We’re Doing and How You Can Help Comfort Violette "Sprout’s" family
Again, since some cats are just hearing and some are still have leaky eyes, we have opened the Chatzy Room for any who need to be with friends for comfort. We know you’ll all be nice.
Use your name and the password: mistletoe. (If the new style Chatzy gives you trouble, try this link instead: Old style Chatzy.) Also, if you would like to light a candle for the family, you can do that here.
UPDATE on Millie’s Mom’s trip: This group of cat bloggers is totally awesome! With your help, we were able to buy Millie’s Mom’s airline ticket today so she can be with her godchild Sprout’s family and attend the funeral services! Yep, bought, booked and all. Poor Aunty Deb’s back problem has flared up bad, and since it’s around 100 miles from her house to Monty Q’s, she’s not able to help Millie’s Mom with driving. And 100 miles back and forth every day, even if Deb was able, is just too much to do. That would do her in especially with her back hurting her so bad and making her sick, and we just can’t have that! (Go give some purrs to Aunty Deb please! She has to go to the Dr. today and we hope he can help her!!!) A HUGE thanks to her for offering, but sick happens and we just hope she feels better soon. Cat bloggers won’t be stopped. Another cat blogger (forgive me for not remembering your name) will get Millie’s Mom to and from the airport to near Sprout’s family, where she will stay in a hotel. Sprout’s extended family is staying at that same hotel, so they can help Millie’s Mom get around while she’s there. And you know what, DKM helped find a really good airfare, so we can cover the hotel room too so Millie’s Mom doesn’t have to sleep on the street or be a burden on the family by squeezing in the closet or something! We don’t have exact figures yet, but we do expect to be able to give financial assistance to the family too, with what’s leftover after the trip, and volunteers and donors are being so kind. That would be great! Fank you all so much. You guys ROCK!

has anyone else gotten a comment that is incredibly long with anti-christian sentiments? they didn’t sign it just left a fake email address (i assume its fake since they didn’t have the guts to sign their name). i am only upset about this b/c they left it on my post to little miss sprout. i don’t have an issue with people expressing their religious (or otherwise) opinions but not on my blog and especially not on such a special post. i have now added the word verification to my blog (in case this was just spam). whatever happened to playing nice?!?!?

We had one of those comments too, but they picked an older post at random to put it on. We can’t understand what they get out of doing it. We have deleted the comment from our blog. Last year we got a load of them, about 50 or so on 20+ posts so we put word verification on. We have only had the one spam comment up to now so don’t really want to put WV back on unless we have to.

We got this comment too :/
Fortunately it ran into Akismet and was not shown on our blog.

We got one of those long stupid comments, too - fortunately I have comment moderation up on Purrchance To Dream now. Trust me, I don’t want to - but because of rude people like that, I’ve had to.
I just went and checked the candle page for Sprout. 103 candles from 10 countries - amazing.
Blessings and hugs,

I just got one of those comments too - on a post from a few days ago. Every now and then, it seems that they show up all over the place. Never has anything to do with the subject of the post, so don’t worry - it’s just a random annoyance to delete.

Just deleting mean or stupid comments and ignoring the silliness is the best way to go.

thanks for the heads up on the gigantic spam message on comments. We got one on a post from last week.
