Each entry garnered at least one vote. They were all good and each story is worthy of being called a winner. (Is it an honor to win an award for having a naughty pet? I’m just asking.) Fortunately, there is one clear winner. That means I don’t have to break a tie. For that, I thank everyone who took the time to vote in this fun contest.

The winner is: Clara & Skittles ~ Kitty Loves Catnip. I saw my friend and neighbor, Meghan, at church Sunday evening. She called Skittles, “Clara’s stoner cat.” I’ve never seen a cat drunk on catnip. (I did have a neighbor years ago that would get his cat drunk on peppermint schnapps. That was one crazy cat, and so was his feline companion.)

Clara wins her second Tommy Toe Award. She was also the first blogger to win this award, which is in honor of our mother. Yes, Clara is my sister. You can read more about the award here.

Ida & Buddy Bird ~ Poop on Pop came in second place. Since Clara has won before, I’ve decided to award the Tommy Toe to Ida as well. Ida’s bird sure did a number on her dad. But Dad was ready with a witty response to ease the tension.

Congratulations to Clara and Ida and special thanks to their supporters. To the rest, I’ll give you another opportunity to win a Tommy Toe soon. I promise.
