Cat's Meow Mailbox #8








Cat's Meow Mailbox is inspired by the great weekly recap book memes (Mailbox Monday, Waiting On Wednesday, It’s Monday! What are you reading? and Sunday Post)








Hope you all had a fun Halloween! I was down most of the week with a stupid head cold that really knocked me for a loop but did get out to a local horse farm that does a cute Halloween with the Horses event. On the blogging side, I locked in my first paid blog sponsor and got materials together to join the Cat Writers' Association. Fingers crossed that my application is approved!!!

We're now upon my very favorite time of year. By the week of Veterans' Day I usually start decorating my house for the holidays :) This year I'm also participating in the Ho-Ho-Ho Read-a-thon November 7th-11th; you still have time to sign up if you haven't already! Truffles and I will be hosting our own Challenge during the event with a great prize package, and at the same time we'll be debuting our blog's fantastic "Christmas Icing" makeover.
