In three days, I will officially have had my blog for three months. I’m still quite a newbie in the blogging world, but I feel so welcomed and supported by those that I’ve met (virtually) and hope to meet in person at the BlogPaws 2016 Conference in June! While the majority of my new-found blogging comrades are within the pet blogging world, I have also enjoyed getting to know non-pet bloggers as well. Pet or not, bloggers are certainly a supportive group of people and a great community to be a part of.
One of the pleasures I’ve had while blogging is collaborating with other bloggers on a few posts, which I definitely hope to do more of. I’ve also learned so much about cat welfare in general and the rescue system. Blogging has been quite an education process for me.
Not only are my fellow bloggers wonderful, but so are the readers! I have received great support from a number of dedicated readers, and that’s one of the main reasons why I started Three Chatty Cats – for the reader! I have also witnessed so much giving and support from the readers to the rescue groups I’ve featured and individuals I’ve profiled. More often than not, I’ve seen a post connect a reader with a group or rescuer to either donate items or money – or just offer general words of encouragement. And that is really what this is all about!
To top it all off, I have received kind words of support and encouragement aimed at little ol’ me. I received a Liebster Award Nomination from Beyond the Blue Coat in February. I was completely surprised and honored to be thought of. At the time, I didn’t know that such blogging nominations existed or went around, but of course I have since learned that they are here to help get to know fellow bloggers. I humbly accepted the nomination from Paula and you can read that post here, if you’d like.
Since that nomination, I’ve been even more flabbergasted at receiving a few more nominations. I thanked each blogger at the time, but I never posted anything on Three Chatty Cats because I didn’t want to bombard my readers with here-I-am, read-about-me type posts. I’m not one to toot my own horn and I even feel a bit awkward posting this. My blog is dedicated to the kitties, not me! Know what I mean?
But with all that said, I don’t feel that’s fair to the bloggers who took the time to read and nominate my blog. I want to share them with you as well and show my appreciation for all their blogging efforts and hard work they have put into their own blogs.
So, here are all of the bloggers who have been so kind to recognize Three Chatty Cats. I’d like to give them my deepest appreciation. Thank you to everyone for supporting and reading Three Chatty Cats! I’m looking forward to meeting even more bloggers and readers as I continue my blogging journey.

See you in June. Mom L will send you her cell number via email. Make sure to catch up in Phoenix, purrs
Looking forward to it! I’ll be the introvert at the newbie table that Elizabeth K at BP has been kind enough to mention.
Congrats on all of the well-deserved accolades!!! I am sure there are many more to come! catchatwithcarenandcody
Thank you, Caren. One thing I forgot to mention is that one of the best things too has been reading all the other great blogs, like yours, and seeing how it’s done right!
It’s kind of crazy that your blog is so well organized and it’s only been three months! I’ve had my blog for almost a year and I still don’t completely know what it’s purpose is! :)
Sometimes I feel like I’m organized to a fault. I think blogs that offer more than one subject (like yours) are great to read. I likely will only attract readers who are cat (or animal) lovers. Your audience will be wide-ranging!
I wish I could go to That event !
I didn’t know you were part of BP! Perhaps one day you will be able to go.
Hopefully. It’s just such a long trip haha xD
It certainly was a pleasure getting to know you through Catastic, then Instagram and then of course, through your awesome new blog. I concur with Prosperity and Calamities, (have to check out their blog too) your blog is thoroughly organized and always a pleasure to read! I have also started my blog this year and it’s a hard slog to keep up and keep focused! So bravo to you and hoping you have a fantastic time in June at the Blogpaws conference! Perhaps next year they’ll have it on the East coast closer to me.
They switch from coast to coast every year. Last year it was in Nashville, this year Phoenix, next year it should be closer to the east coast.
I love how social media brought us together! Your posts are always so informative and thorough. I hope we can collaborate again in the future!
Would love that, for sure!
I wish I was going to BlogPaws so I could meet you. Maybe next year.
Bummer! It would’ve been great to meet you. Yes, maybe next year.
Making it to 3 months is fabulous! Now for the one year mark! The mom will be at BlogPaws so she looks forward to meeting you. Make sure you look for the lady with the yellow hair. ;)
I will be on the lookout for the lady with yellow hair!
Hi … we won’t be at Blog Paws to meet (purrhaps another place/time/year?) but congrats on a lovely blog … thanks for visiting us … sorry we are slow to meet newbies … now back to cat-ing-about-n-around!
Mmm, just an add-on, not sure why my comment (above, just left for you) did not show up as ZOOLATRY, but that’s who I am, who we are!
I’m glad you made it to my blog! I love Zoey and have enjoyed meeting Dougie Dog too!
The pet blogosphere is a wonderful place to be and you deserve the accolades you’re receiving! Wish I was able to go to BlogPaws so we could meet in purr-son.
Aww, me too – hopefully next year! :-)
You have come a long way in only three months! The head peep is sad that she isn’t going to be attending BlogPaws this year, so she will miss the opportunity to meet you. But we know you’ll have a blast there!
Thank you! Yes, I’m sure it will be an awesome experience for me to attend!
Hello, new furiends! We are so glad you stopped by our blog – we love making new furiends. We look forward to following you, and meeting you at BlogPaws!!! ConCATS on all your awesome awards!
Yay, looking forward to it as well!
Happy blogoversary ;) I’m sure you will have a wonderful time at the conference.
Thank you!
congrats and keep it up! I’ve also just recently entered the blogosphere and it’s cool to “meet” so many cat enthusiasts from all over :)
It is definitely a great place to be!
I really like your blog. :-)
Earlier I posted as a joke, but your posts have been a reason to continue. I met some really special people who really give all of yourself and really believe in what they do.
Thanks to you and to all of you :-)
I love the pictures and words you share on your blog. I would miss it if it was gone!
Thank you so much! I really like your comment :-)
Thanks to your talent and hard work, you have helped give so many amazing cats a chance for a better life. It’s something to be proud of and celebrate!
Aww, you’re too kind!
Congrats on the awards and for doing so well! Aren’t writers/bloggers such wonderful people?!? :) Have fun at the Blogpaws conference! I’ve always wanted to go but have never been able to. :( Make sure to take plenty of pictures!
I will definitely take lots of pictures. I hope you can make it one day!
AW, TW isn’t going to Blogpaws this year, much to Mom L’s dismay so you’ll have to keep her company. MOL! We look forward to reading your blog and are glad we virtually know you. IF we’re lucky enough to be a finalist for Nose to Nose, Plush CK will be there though.
Well I hope you are so I can at least meet the plush version!
Congrats on your blogging milestone! Time will fly by but as long as you are having fun that’s all that matters! Excited to see you and everyone who is attending the BlogPaws conference this summer! This will be my first time going and I’m so excited!!! :)
I am having fun, thank you! Looking forward to meeting you at BP!
Congratulations! Keep it up
Thank you so much!
Reblogged this on Lukecats. About cats and life..
Congratulations on your new blog. I’m looking forward to reading more. Have a great week.
Thank you! :-)
Congratulations on 3 months- it is a big milestone and it’s always the initial part that is hardest. I’ve loved visiting your blog- so does my mum. I love the pic of Dexter! He’s my favourite!
Thank you! I also love visiting your blog! And yes, Dexter is a fan favorite. :-)
I keep going back to your page just to look at Dexter pics :)
Aww, that’s sweet. He is definitely a looker!
Congratulations! Blogging may be hard work, but it’s so rewarding! Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
