Furst and foremost, we wanna thank our blurpy sisser fer being da official name drawer. Doesn't she look cool in her SF Giant's outfit?

Next, we would like to announce da result of the fundraiser. There were a total of 87 participants (29 Jumpers and 58 Shouters). So, that would mean 87 x .50 cents = $43.50. EXCEPT . . . an anonymous bean contacted Mommakitty and say they would match what we raised, so da grand total monies raised fer da Cat Friends Helpin Friends Organization is . . . $87.00!

Now, fer da drawing results . . .

Furst, Mommakitty wrote down all da names form each category on little pieces of papers.

Then, she folded da pieces of papers and put them in bowls labeled "Jump" and "Shout."

Finally, it wuz time fer Kiera to draw da names. Drum roll please . . .
