Here's my recent efforts of the boys, I know there's more than one pic of each of them but I checked  :rules: and it doesn't say anything about having more than one pic, in fact it doesn't say anything at all  :evillaugh:  I just couldn't choose!  :shy: Fear not though, have made a donation for each pic  ;D

Riley looking quite handsome if I do say so myself  :Luv2:



Yikes, look away - it's horrific!  :scared:



Lu giving Riley a run for his money in the looks stakes



Lu doing his 'mad da mouse session' face!



Cuddles  :Luv2:

It would just seem a little odd having a dog/rabbit/reptile (that's for JS  ;) ) win a "Cat" Show  :innocent: but who am I to make rules?   :)

and so to Groucho ....

Even if we raise £50, it'll be someat eh? :)

Leave it with me and I'll give it some thought but, as I'm in charge  :innocent: , I'm imposing a deadline of midnight next Friday for posting pics, voting up to midnight on Saturday with announcement of the one and only winner on Sunday.  Short, sweet and as few rules as possible.  Anyone can post a pic altho it might help if it's a pic of a cat  ;) and everyone entirely on their honour to make a donation of whatever they can afford to Busters Fund  :)

Voting by sending me a PM prob a good idea but I think I'm gonna restrict voting to one vote per human member and no voting for your own furbabes?  That should keep it simple and utterly impossible  ;)

Haven't cleared this with anyone  :scared: :scared: :scared:  I'm gonna get into such trubbell  :scared: but, as it's Busters Fund and Tan has the only say in how the dosh is spent, I'm hoping I won't be sent to Coventry .................. as we can't have any more cats  :evillaugh:

Rosella, looks like we're off and running  :wow: CuteCats has amended the title, so it's a fait accomplis  ;D Here we go.. here we go.. here we go!

Want to proffer some publicity across the site? We thought we'd better leave something for the Mod to do  :-[  :naughty:

I suppose we need a finish date, and an informal way of voting for a winner. Voting by PM is a suggestion - it might work, you might know different?

So, very few rules, just a whole load of fun, Cors and Phwoooaarsss to get some cash in them thar coffers, give what you can and get them photos in. Let's have some fun this summer  ;D

Fab pics Liz  :Luv: :)

For anyone wanting to donate to Busters Fund, I've just used the "Donate" button at bottom of page and sent donation through PayPal.  I added a note to mention my Purrs member name and that it is intended for Busters Fund.

So now I share Bobby aged 3 months with you all (pic stolen from Covcats  :shify: )

Oh Rosella, we are grateful for everything the mods do on here, we can have our own "show" without the formalities, can't we? Please don't feel like you've let anyone down as you haven't.  :hug:

Maybe we can do an informal Fun vote at the end, with a virtual Rosette awarded for the winner? And voluntary contributions to Buster's Fund for the entrants? Hmm?

http://www.purrsinourhearts.co.uk/index.php/topic,15244.0.html

Can I kick off please with "Polly on Water" which some of you may have seen before, but always reminds me of Nelson on his column, which is particularly appropriate today  ;D

That's £2 to Busters fund from Polly. One down, seven to go  :Luv: If this ends up being just a showcase for my furbs then that's fine too as I just love showing them off  :innocent:

I for one was going to enter pics of all my eight puddins this year, so I'll send £16 to Busters fund instead of an entry fee, and post my pictures on here for all to see without the anguish of having them judged.  :shify:

I know my babies are beautiful anyway and they're all winners in my eyes, but my photography skills just aren't equal to their natural beauty  :Luv:

Thats a shame, but it is hard to fit in everyday life besides any extra.  What about a one photo per member, one fixed donation? Open category?

Awww that's a shame, but must be a lot of work.  Will try and think of an idea for fundraising if I can.

Thanks again for last year's show.  My first, and really enjoyed it.  :)

Sadly not  :shy: The show has always been great fun and has raised a lot of dosh but it also involves a huuuuuge amount of behind the scenes work which none of the mods felt they were able to commit to this year for various reasons.

Tan was going to try and come up with another, less labour intensive, fundraiser for the summer so any input or ideas gratefully received  ;D

If anyone one has been saving pics for the show then put us out of our misery and post them for us to swoon over or alternatively save them for next year when, fingers crossed, the cat show will be resurrected  :wow:
