The day has finally come. When three fierce competitors will face off to determine who truly is the cutest cat on the Buffalo Blog. I appreciate everyone's patience while I made this post. I recently had some visitors in town for the week and some people (Parker) took their sweet time getting me some photos of their alleged cat. But, the photos are in. So without further ado, let's move right on to the games:
In the Tabby corner, wearing his fattest trunks, we have the adorable Monkey. His charms include sleeping soundly, pleasing his plumpness, causing trouble, and working part time as a stunt-double for Jabba the Hut. Please give a warm Buffalo Blog welcome to Moooooonnnnkeeeeeey!

And in the lady's corner, wearing mittens and a purple collar we have Shelby. She likes cavorting collarless in her birthday suit, taking long crawls through cardboard tubes, and being treated like the princess she is. Please give a big hello to the spunky, never chunky, white-paw quick-draw, Sheeeeellllllby!
The Princess will see you now
Look into those adorable eyes
"Doesn't this tube look fabulous with me inside?"
In the hometown corner, wearing an all-black velveteen suit is Mr. Sandwich. He likes hunting for bugs, practicing his Kung Fu, snuggling like a sugar bear, and being a Mama's boy. When he's not keeping the humans up, he's napping under the bed and getting locked in the closet. Let's all put our hands (or paws) together for the gentleman brawler, the sultan of suave, the bad boy of Seattle, Miiisteeer Saaaaaandwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiich!!!

Now you've met our contestants. The choice is in your hands. Who will be Buffalo Blog's Feline Idol? Will it be the mondo-mouser, Monkey? The sultry she-devil, Shelby? Or the mighty-man from meerkat land, Mr. Sandwich? Cast your votes now. This is for all the bragging rights and a year's supply of humble pie to the losers. You may vote once per day, so sharpen those claws and ready your paws, the polls are now open. Votes will be tallied and the winner announced on September 20, 2006. Let's get it on:
Update: The polls have officially closed at 7:35 p.m. PDT.
