- Name Blofeld’s Cat Contest
Miscellaneous Notes:
Name the Cat Contest
Spectre’s Ernst Blofeld was often shown caressing his long haired white cat. Poor Kitty was never called by name, though….
Name Blofeld’s cat and receive a stuffed longhaired cat and a discount on your CC28 membership! Entries must be received by Nov 1 of the current year. Three cats will be awarded. One cat will be awarded in 2007, one in 2008 and one in 2009. Judging will take place in November, and cats will be awarded in Dec, in time for Christmas. Judges decisions are final.
