Thankful Thursday: I’m On WordPress!

Remember!
You can post &  join the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop all week.
We close each week’s hop on Wednesday night!

I did it! I’m on WordPress. A made the move from Blogger and as nervous as I was, ’cause I hate moving, it was really painless, thanks to my mover! Take a bow, Blogelina!*

I was complaining about it a few days ago, but only whining really cause Mom’s back hurt, my back hurt, Dad’s back hurt, my blog was moving – and I hadn’t actually even LOGGED IN to my new WordPress blog yet. I JUST NOW did that for the first time!

Now comes all the fun stuff of tweaking this and that, customizing stuff to make my lovely, clean, new theme reflect my unique purrsonality. Yay!

While I’m at it, I’m open to suggestions on what you’d like to see more or less of on my new blog. What stuff do you like seeing when you come here? What could you do without? I took off my stereo cause some folks said it made the page load too slow. Should I see if I can try getting it back with this new platform and see if it loads faster? Did you like my music?

Should I talk more about me and my purrsonal stuff, what’s outside my window in Hollywood, what Mom and Dad are up to? Would you like to see more about my medical issues and how we deal with them? Tips for special needs and senior kitties? Intervies with other senior or special needs pets? Would you like to see a weekly Eldad/Hopeforpaws.com update and/or video?

Do you want to see more pics of L.A? More giveaways? More Twitter Tips, Social Media help? Other Ragdoll cats?

What about this – I’m em’bark’ing on a campaign to give cats a break. Some new statistics recently came out showing WAY more people don’t like/wouldn’t adopt cats than dogs. I had no idea! Cats have been getting a bad rap and I want to try to cut them some slack. Any interest in weekly posts/actions about that?

I’m writing for you. I’d love to think I’m writing stuff you want to read! I’d appreciate any feedback, and if you want to write me privately, just email me at cokiethecat at gmail.com.

I love you guys. And I’m SO thankful for this fresh new start.

Let’s Hop!

    I look at this entire Cat & Internet thing like a report I was writing for a caring Nielsen, not that big corporations care. You write about perceptions of Cats. Much that is promoted or written misses the mark. The mark being a point where average people pay attention.

    I’m reading DEWEY. The Author makes a point on page 25. “One of the worst things about bad times is the effect on you mind…Bad times drain you of energy…Here was an alley cat, left for dead in a freezing drop box, terrified, alone, and clining to life. ..He never lost his trust…He was confident” Writing about why Individuals in the small community rallied around this cat.
    A campaign to make this required Reading in Schools, laugh, lots of ways this could be used to market cats to people. Because now I see people who actually are so pushed to the edge that to them other people’s lives are worthless, but then again I took on big business and the media, hence govt so people try to tell me that every day.
