Meezer Rule Wednesday: Donate to project HAM!
Yes that’s right, the Meezer’s ham bank is getting dangerously low. We need to help them get another little piggy during this holiday season. In that interest, like other celebs before me, I am auctioning off some of my famous jewels.
It was actually Mom Robyn’s idea long ago. You see, I have no interest in wearing a collar, even so fine a one as she made me for my wedding. She said that some time perhaps I could auction it off for a good cause. We’ve been looking for one all year. We almost told Opus and Roscoe to use it in their raffle, but then we didn’t get around to it. We did however donate. When we read about Miles and Sammy needing help, we said THIS is what we’ve been waiting for.
Bidding will go on until midnight on Friday. The high bidder will purchase the collar for the winning amount and will also be our Sunday Guest Star.
Don’t need a fine, exceptionally well made, good enough for a meezer collar? You can still donate!
Details: place your bid in the comments. You can also email me at Cheysuli at mysiamese dot com if you wish to hide your bid or have further questions. I do see all comments as they come in and can also respond to questions asked in the comments.
This is such a wonderful collar, I think the bidding should start at $5.00. But I believe the price can skyrocket from there.
Latte has opened the bidding at $5.00 (thank you my handsome husband).
The prize money will go right to the same paypal that KC and ML are using for the donations. No paypal fees are deducted from your donations or the amount paid for the collar. We will send payment instructions to the high bidder.
Once we get confirmation that the payment has been made, we will ship off your prize. We will pay all shipping and handling. We will email you when we have sent it off (as this time of year mail can sometimes get slow).
The collar has the lovely charm that is on the chain now, which I wore for the wedding. For something simpler, that would look stunning on the perfect tuxie, there is a single pearl (shown next to the pendant.)
Further details from Mom Robyn:
The materials for the famous necklace and accompanying charm are
14 Karat Gold Filled (20% 14 Karat gold over base metal, so all surface metal is 14K gold) and freshwater pearls.To help out, so a human can also wear it as a necklace, I’ll send them a single strand 14 karat gold chain (same weight type chain as shown but a single strand) to go with it. Or the human could wear the charm on it and the (obviously prettier) cat could wear the necklace. Or vice versa. Or the cat could make the human wear it all.
My details–I believe that my neck was about 8 inches when measured, and I have a bit of play in the sizing. Having sized this for what it works for, it is too small for an ankle bracelet, being shorter than the ankle bracelets the Woman has. It does not close around her ankle. It does fit around Gemini’s neck and there is some room in there to it is not too tight. Not that you can see it through her fur! However, she is much heaftier boned cat than I am so it should fit most cats. If we need a longer chain for a larger cat, the Woman be happy to help reimburse Mom Robyn for a longer chain or perhaps we can use an extender. After all, isn’t half the joy of wearing this knowing that it touched my fur?
Current High Bid: Lilly Lu at $40.00 (there may be a delay in this update so check the comments before bidding) And my apologies for not being home sooner to get that up!

Well, it turned into a famous necklace and handy after all, Chey. How cool.
I can help out with a couple of things here.
The materials for the famous necklace and accompanying charm are
14 Karat Gold Filled (20% 14 Karat gold over base metal, so all surface metal is 14K gold) and freshwater pearls.
To help out, so a human can also wear it as a necklace, I’ll send them a single strand 14 karat gold chain (same weight type chain as shown but a single strand) to go with it. Or the human could wear the charm on it and the (obviously prettier) cat could wear the necklace. Or vice versa. Or the cat could make the human wear it all.
“Purrs” (cheezy human imitation purr, of course)

How very generous and like you Chey, to donate your wedding collar for such a worthy cause. We know the raffle winner will think of you each time they wear it. (Of course I hardly need to mention the positive press this will bring your Presidential campaign!)
We all love Sammy & Miles and we’ll make Mom go over right away and send a PayPal donation to help their family.
MomBean! Where is your plastic thingy??
What a wonderful and generous thing for you to do! You are such a kind-hearted Meezer. We lufs you SO MUCH!
Luf, Us
Chey, you have a very big heart.
This is so nice of you! We love the big hearts that all blogging kitties have!
What a lovely idea! It’s really beautiful, and so are you.
WOWY – that is beeyooteeful! Whut a great idea to have an auction!
P.S. – Mommakitty decided against Boot Camp ’cause you gots to partition yer hard drive. She tried (trial version) of Cross Over and it was good. She bought Parallels, and installed it, but hasn’t used it yet (it wuz fairly cheep) cuz she still has to git Windows XP and she is concerned about installing it…still doing more research (she doesn’t want Vista). Anyhoo, the only program she can’t run on her Mac yet is Publisher, which she doesn’t use at home…but her werk uses it a lot for marketing materials. She is holding off ’till she can “borrow” a copy of XP instead of spendin’ da big bucks (more Temptations fer us!).
That is a wonderful thing to do, I hope you get lots of money for your beautiful. This is the time of year especially to help others. That is the spirit. I am helping Opus and Roscoe with their going ons. Isn’t it nice that we can help others?
What a super idea!!! See,you held on to it for a good reason!! 🙂
Purrs
That is very kind of you to help others in need with your beautiful necklace. My pet human has been helping out the pooses in our area and really needs to watch THE SECRET again so she can manifest more money to give away!
