Thread: Fund raising Merl...

Merlyn took his mystery tombola along to the CPL xmas fayre today to help raise a few pennies to help those waiting to be as spoilt as him.Its the third time he has done it & getting to be quite a celebrity,people come along who have seen him before & to have a cuddle & others come along because they have heard about him,today one of the visitors decided 50p should be paid to have a cuddle with him {hubby did try to get in on the act as he is silver haired also but people preffered Merl..ahhh} so perhaps next time we could have a sideline going,although that person did pay up today & kept coming back to get his moneys worth ....
He done pretty well so hopefully it will add a bit more comfort for those more unfortunate little furries.

Lovely pics! He looks so ravishing.
And how well-behaved he is with all those strangers 'pawing' him.
What a great idea to charge 50p a cuddle. I hope your husband's self esteem didn't suffer too much.

What a fantastic idea, hope you raised lots for the CPL!

How good is Merl though ... if our Gracie & the Monster were in on the action there'd be just pictures of an empty bed, shredded wrapping paper, half chewed ribbons and disgruntled customers demanding their 50p back for the cuddles that didn't materialise!!!

They would want a refund for Louie messing up hair do's

That's so cute - what a well behaved lad Merl is! You wouldn't see Freyja for dust, she'd dive under the table and hide until it was peaceful. Wicca would lull people into a false sense of security by laying in the bed, bleating in this endearing little way for a cuddle, and then quick as a flash, you'll missing an earring/ large chunk of hair/ earlobe/ eyeball (only if not wearing glasses, obviously)/ and wondering when the lovely little creature in the bed was replaced by the Anti-Cat.
Wish I lived near Norfolk, I'd have happily donated 50p to give Merl a cuddle

What a star Merl is and how laid back is he!!

I guess his stand was the most visited given he was there looking handsome I would not have been able to resist him, I am amazed no one tried to catnap him I'm sure I would have tried to hid him under my coat

One little thing they dropped the "L" some time ago I found this out when being involved in a deal they were doing with one of my suppliers and made the mistake of putting that in an email..whoops

But well done Merl.
