On Friday, August 21, 2009 at 2 p.m. ET, #pawpawty began its 24-hour celebration to raise funds for an organization in need of monetary donations. Many to Frugal Douglas, the creator and moderator of Twitter’s #pawpawty, who stayed up most of the day and continued to supply tweeters with entertainment and questions for prizes from supporters. The organization for August was TEARS: Romeo the cat.
Feline Pine – Gift basket including cat toy, shopping tote and grooming brush.
FURminator – a dog or cat deShedding tool
Wellness Pet Food – dog or cat treats and a $20 gift certificate for Wellness Pet Food
Clean + Green by Sea Yu Pet Products – your choice of FOUR full sized eco-friendly, pet-safe cleaning products
Big Paw Designs – MEOW charm
Their goal was $1,000, but they managed to raise $1,249.53. Although the “pawty” is over, donations are still being made through First Giving.

I’m so happy that so many people helped them and thankful that more people know the great deeds they do for animals. Spread the word please!
