Cat Connection's Cat of 2006!
Congratulations Lilly!

Another year has flown by and we are continuing our tradition of selecting a Grand Winner in our popular Cat of the Month contest here at the Cat Connection. At the end of the year we compiled all 24 winners (including poll winners and CC winners) over the past 12 months. We then held an internal poll from employees and store customers over a two week period. We are proud to announce our third annual Cat Connection Cat of 2006 as Lilly MacDonald. Lilly and her family will receive a $75 gift certificate that can be used online or in store.

Originally, Lilly was the winner of the May 2006 Photo Contest (voted by the wonderful people here at the Cat Connection). Lilly stole the hearts of the Cat Connection employees and customers alike.

Owner: Daniel and Katia Macdonald
Cat's Name: Lilly
Breed: Domestic Short Hair - Calico

About the Winner:
Here is what Daniel and Katia had to say about their gorgeous girl, Lilly.

"Lilly joined our family about 4 weeks ago. She has added a great new spirit to our daily life around home. This photo was taken while I was lying down on the kitchen floor, Lilly walks through a beam of sun that lightens up the floor and puts her into a spotlight.

She is in her terrible twos age at times, climbing all over every area of the house high and low. Not too much damage to things yet, hehe... but she has managed to knock over a few things.

She really enjoys playing with her Cat Nip Toy that is tied to a string that we can drag around and make her jump for. One other toy is a small pink beanie baby type bear. She carries it around in her mouth like a baby hiding it in different places.

Lilly seems to sleep wherever she thinks its best at the time however she does have a large custom cat home in the living room area which has a fabulous pillowed area on top for those daytime naps. Since she is an inside cat at this time so far she can be regularly found looking out the window or the sliding door. Sometimes when we open the door and she'll sneak up really fast and jumps outside."

Congratulations Lilly!
