CATNIP readership, is particularly well-read and accomplished, not to mention famous, as evidenced by the current group of winners.
I’ve done a bit of sniffing around and found that the winners of my subscriber drawing, in addition to a prize which will be arriving by mail from Catnip Zazzle store, deserve plugs for their accomplishments.

AND That’s NOT ALL.
Peggy & Judy share appreciation for two people who donated their time and expertise to helping get CATNIP’s paws off the ground. They instructed me to send them a thank-you gift from CATNIP Zazzle store too:
Sharon Bonin-Pratt
Not literally Shari
Writer & creative Artist, which is apparent by the creative picture on her blog.
Her blog is Ink Flare Blog https://sharonboninpratt.wordpress.com/
Currently owned by Grandchildren
Shari spent a lot of time reading and critiquing CATNIP content, linking and formatting which helped Peggy & Judy look like they knew what they are doing.
Ronna Skinner
Graphic designer extraordinaire
Ronna
(who I thanked before but NOW she’ll get a thank you gift too!)
Ronna helped get the cats Peggy drew, safely perched onto the letters where they can play with “CATNIP” to their hearts content and make Peggy & Judy look professional.
If you want CATNIP gifts YOU should volunteer.

This is so encouraging. My mom had a couple of strokes which affected her left side. I’ve been taking her to physical therapy and he told her that if she does her homework, her leg’s function could return due to retraining the brain. This proves that perseverance can pay off. I will read this story to my mom so that she sees that there’s is indeed hope.

Ronna,
You must have read our dedication to Maui! Do read it to your mom!! If Maui can do it, so can she. For more about some amazing recoveries in people, read “The Brain That Changes Itself” by Norman Doidge. It is on Catnip’s NEED TO READ page. Thank you again for helping with our logo!!

James,
It was interesting that the winners all are creative types. But then again we are all creative and just don’t know it or have had the opportunity/direction to explore that part of us.
You and Wicket are welcome!

Thank you for the recognition and, in advance, for the “prize.” It’s interesting to note that all the winners practice creative arts. Oh, and Wicket thanks you, too!

Thank you, Judy and Peggy. I did not do anything for a prize, but I thank you in advance. It was fun to offer help, and I’d be glad to do so again, should you need – (but not for a prize.)

Dear Shari B-P, human-being,
You’re welcome in advance. I know you didn’t help “The Humans” for a prize. Peggy & judy, “the Humans”, know you didn’t help for a prize. I am the determiner of all things prizes. I need to share “the Humans’ CATNIP creations since no one will probably purchase them. I don’t want their creative efforts to be for naught because when the Humans get discouraged it’s not a pretty sight.
You deserve gratitude and what better way than sharing “catnip” which will make you mellow and/or crazed.
Frankly,
Freddie Parker Westerfield,
