Buy this new 4 GB iPod Nano… help raise funds for Bunny! (copied from Leigh-Ann’s Blog Pound blog)
Leigh-Ann is selling the 4GB iPod Nano that she won at BlogWorld, as a fundraiser for li’l Bunny and her heart meds. Also, we don’t need it because I won the iPod Touch (which despite being an Apple product, I actually like it - although I’d like it a whole lot more if it would let me use Rhapsody-to-Go on it…I don’t like having to buy each album I want to listen to) and Leigh-Ann won another iPod, so we each have our little prize, which we needed, psychologically, as a little reward for rescuing the cats from the shelter. Because, those cats? They gave every single one of our cats a cold. They’ve all been sneezy, but several of them have been much worse than that, with an awful runny eye problem, which gives them crusty eyes when they wake up. Yuk. Also, they seem to sneeze on us often and with great feeling. I swear that they aim at us. I think that deserves a little MP3 player keeping. However, the one we’re selling is pimped to sell and is groovy looking, if I do say so myself.
This is copied from Leigh-Ann’s blog:
Christmas is just around the corner, and I’d like to sell the second brand-new, 4GB iPod Nano that I won at Blog World. We could use the cash more than we could use the iPod, especially given that Carlo must have an ECG, Cricket has been sick all week with pancreatitis, and a few of the cats with URIs now also have eye infections. It seems like we’ve been at the vet almost every day in the past week!
As I said, this iPod Nano is 3rd generation, and 4GB. It’s never been removed from its storage box. There was recently a sale at a cool store called iFrogz.com, so we purchased a nice case and decorative control pad decal for this iPod, and it will be included in the sale. Here’s what your new lovely iPod will look like once you put it in the new case and add the decal:
Isn’t that nice?! The iPod, without the case, sells for $144.99 at Amazon.com. The case and decal are worth about $18, so the total retail value here is $162.94 (plus whatever taxes and shipping you’d have to add if you bought it in a retail store or online). If you buy this Nano from me, I’ll give you the entire package for just $130, and I’ll ship it to you for free. If you’d like to buy this and send it to someone as a gift, I’ll happily wrap it and send it wherever you’d like, too. If you’re interested, you can jot me an email using the “Contact Me” link at the top of the page, or just send $130 to me using the Wee Paws donation button in the sidebar. If I can’t sell this in a couple of days I’ll put it on eBay, but then I’d have to pay a lot of fees to list it. I figured I’d try this first.
So, if you’re interested in buying the groovy iPod NanoNano from Ork, please go to Leigh-Ann’s blog and contact her. It’s a good deal, and it’ll go to a good cause…us. :D Thank you for your rapt attention.
P.S. Just look at that face, don’t you want to help buy some heart medicine for her? 
I used her serious face, versus a video I could’ve taken of her racing around the house today, playing with a plastic ring from the milk bottle. She’s also been jumping from my desk to my back, gnawing on my hair. She’s been super cuddly too, only she’s a bit too full of energy and doesn’t quite know what to do with herself…so she lightly bit the end of my nose. The meds seem to have finally kicked in the past few days and she’s back to acting like a kitten. She has so much energy that no one else can keep up with her, so she’s been running everywhere she goes, and playing with the plastic from the bottles by herself. It’s like solo soccer practice.
