Blog Anniversary and Giveaway
It’s our First Blog Anniversary!
The Conscious Cat is one year old today! And what an amazing year it has been – a year ago, I couldn’t have imagined how quickly this blog would become popular and how fast our readership would be growing since our first post. Thank you to all of you who read, comment, and share what you read here with others – this site wouldn’t be what it has become without your support.
I started The Conscious Cat to share my passion and knowledge about conscious living, health and happiness for pets and their people. Over time, I began to include book reviews, author interviews, feline lifestyle articles, and more. Amber, the inspiration behind this site, has her own category, Amber’s Mewsings, where she shares her feline wisdom with us mere humans.
We’ll be celebrating here all week long! To kick off the celebration, we’re offering a fabulous giveaway – a gift basket from Whimsy Cats that includes an autographed copy of Buckley’s Story and lots of fun surprises for your feline family members.

Our birthday week celebrations continue tomorrow with an announcement of some exciting new things coming to you from The Conscious Cat. On Wednesday, we’ll have a very special guest blogger. And of course, our birthday week celebration wouldn’t be complete without Amber’s Mewsings on Friday. We hope you enjoy our birthday week!
Congratulations on your Blogiversary, Ingrid and Amber!

Congratulations to not only one year of blogging, but of choosing the right path and medium for your success! It’s been amazing to watch your success, and you either make incredibly good decisions or you are divinely guided–perhaps both. Here’s to another successful year.

Thank you for your votes and support-I think the kitties may get a gift certificate-which depending on the form I will give part of it to some animal foundation/sponsor another cat-did you ever read my post about the traffic ticket I got out of so instead I took the traffic fine that would have been and donated it to sponsor some kitties.
PS happy blog party-obviously no need to to enter me.
Congratulations! Your site is fantastic. I hope to check in on it for many more years to come.

Thanks you for the wonderful comment, Azer, Baby Twinkle and CeeCee – I love that you already have it all figured what you’ll do if you win the basket.

Ingrid…you are an inspiration and a wonderful cat advocate! Concatulations on a year of dreams realized and endless future possibilities! Ps: the cats love the idea of winning that basket too…they especially like crinkly cellophane (supervised play, of course!)
Ingrid, congrats on your first year of blogging! Sending purrs of thanks and cyber-catnip to Amber from all the furry fans at Cat Saturday.
Ok, I just put a post on my blog about the giveaway. I should have asked you before I did it, but I used the two pictures on your blog on my post. I hope that is all right. If it isn’t, I sure can take them off.
