Buy a pattern, help a cat

As you know., we're all about the cats here at Chez Wandering Cat.

So when our dear friend Natalie asked for birthday donations to help some special little kitties.... well, we just had to step up.

You see, Natalie just recently adopted three gorgeous ginger girls from a cat sanctuary in Greece, called God's Little People. The situation is quite dire in Greece for our feline friends. The rescue recently took in a litter of four beautiful kitties who were living in a dumpster. They've been fixed and vaccinated, but the rescue had is full to capacity and was faced with the prospect of turning them back out to the wild.
Now Natalie's got a huge heart (if you read her blog, you'll know just how huge!) and she's offered to foster them here in Canada, and find them happy homes where they will be spoiled as all cat's should. But they need some help raising the funds to get the kitties here.
And how can you say no to that face? (It reminds me so much of my Rocky, so I certainly can't resist. I'd be offering to adopt one of them if I thought Dave wouldn't notice...)

Natalie and her husband are going to match all donations made, so I thought I'd offer a little incentive as well.

From now, until February 7, all my patterns* will be on sale for 50% off - just use the code GATA (that's greek for cat!).  All monies raised from the pattern sales will be donated to help cover the travel expenses of these sweet little things.
If you've been eyeing one of my patterns - now is the time!

Just use the code GATA, save 50% and help a sweet feline find a new home! Please check out Natalie's blog for more details on this sweet quartet.

*with the exception of Chuck and Katherine, as these patterns already support other charities.

I just got two ... both hats. Twyla ... I'm going to spin for it too! Wildwood is just too gorgeous and will be a new challenge from the inside out.

Dear Valerie, thank you SO much. You rock!! Natalie is wonderful and I'm just so moved that people are stepping forward to help these little Greek cats to a new life far away from a crummy life by a Greek dumpster! And btw... these four cats suffered the same fate as the three ginger cats Natalie adopted. They were also discarded (although at only 3 weeks old) by the exact same dumpster!! xo
