These are all so cute, it’s very hard to pick just one.
Great job to all!!!
November 9th, 2009 at 7:24 am
They are all so awesome. I had a hard time picking just one. Good job everyone!
November 9th, 2009 at 7:39 am
I love them all…everybody did a great job! The one that caused me to really smile was #7.
November 9th, 2009 at 7:50 am
I cast my vote but it was difficult to pick. They’re all great!
November 9th, 2009 at 7:58 am
ALL ARE SO CREATIVE BUT THE MOUSE JUST WON MY VOTE,…SOOO CUTE
November 9th, 2009 at 8:09 am
These are just so beautiful and fun! It was impossible to choose one (though I did). I hope they all win, and I also want to say that it looks like the cats are really using the caboodles, so guess who needs to be getting a caboodle for her felines!
November 9th, 2009 at 8:11 am
These are just brilliant!Colorful, cute and fun.
November 9th, 2009 at 8:15 am
Very creative bunch of entries!
It wads difficult to choose just one.
November 9th, 2009 at 8:16 am
Too cute! I especially love the Caboodle kitties in the photos.
November 9th, 2009 at 8:17 am
wow, these are GREAT!! lol, i love the cat butts!!
November 9th, 2009 at 9:10 am
These are all so great! Good luck everyone
November 9th, 2009 at 9:19 am
These turned out great! I really like number 4.
November 9th, 2009 at 9:31 am
I loved them all but loved the tree house for its original art work and colors. Good job to all. Great idea, Kate
November 9th, 2009 at 9:33 am
All finalists had cool, creative designs! The tree house was really well done! But my favorite was the “club house” so it got my vote! Each kitty with his/her own space, a day scene opposite a night scene, and the kitty butts on the back finalized my decision! Reminds me of club houses kids build (complete with “keep out!” warning); love it!
November 9th, 2009 at 9:39 am
Great competition!
November 9th, 2009 at 9:52 am
Wow – amazing entries! Great job to everyone and thanks to all that participated!
November 9th, 2009 at 9:56 am
Congrats to the finalists! So many awesome ideas…. I can’t wait to decorate our caboodle =)
November 9th, 2009 at 10:42 am
You all did an awesome job…Good luck everyone! (I’m embarrassed I didn’t get mine finished in time.)
November 9th, 2009 at 10:52 am
Choosing between 6 & 7 was very difficult! They both took this contest above and beyond my expectations.
November 9th, 2009 at 10:57 am
These are all so wonderfully done. I loved them all but #7 was my favourite. Good job everyone!
November 9th, 2009 at 10:58 am
So difficult to choose! xP
Really, they all look lovely. Great job everyone. And good luck!
November 9th, 2009 at 10:59 am

November 9th, 2009 at 10:59 am
It was difficult, but I had to choose #7.
So cute!
November 9th, 2009 at 11:07 am
Those are all wonderful! It was really hard to pick just one to vote for.
November 9th, 2009 at 11:29 am
Oh, these turned out so well! Congrats to all for doing such a good job and to all the kitties who are lucky enough to live with such creative folks.
In particular I love:
-the way Ginseng rules her/his roost;
-that Erinn has carried over a theme from another item of home decor, and that she has a FULL HOUSE with a kitty on each floor;
-how Brooke’s kitties seem to be sitting and admiring mom’s handiwork;
-Donna’s kitty-tushies.
Well done, everyone.
November 9th, 2009 at 11:59 am
I thought the Mouse House was so cute!!!
November 9th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
Well done everyone. You’ve all inspired me to make a special hide-out for my own kitty. BRAVO!
November 9th, 2009 at 12:48 pm
Those caboodles were all really cute. Everyone did a great job. We will have to save up our money so we can get some of those.
November 9th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
Great job, everyone! I might just have to make one myself!
November 9th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
‘Mouse House’ and ‘Kitty Tree House’ are adorable and my favorites, but everyone did a great job.
November 9th, 2009 at 1:52 pm
It was a tough choice! They are all really cool.
November 9th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
i love #4
November 9th, 2009 at 2:59 pm
Hey everyone!
I created #7 MOUSE HOUSE and if I win (I know, tough competition!), I will donate some of my prize winnings to the SPCA (I need to give a few treats to my kitties too of course, hehe).
Thanks for your support, and good luck everyone!

Wowza!! Great job everyone!! I looked at them all several times, a difficult choice!! Great job.
November 9th, 2009 at 3:14 pm
awww so cutee all of them!!
November 9th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
All of the entries are so original, cute, beautiful, creative, fantastic and the feline occupants look very content in these caboodles! Was so very very hard to pick only one, I did it!
November 9th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
This was a fun project. I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. I’m really impressed by the creativity of the finalists.
This would be a great fund raiser for rescue groups. You could decorate several of them and auction them off! A great way to get kids involved too.
November 9th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
I vote for #4 Paper Mosaic. They look beautiful!
November 9th, 2009 at 4:28 pm
I like the mosaic one # 4.
November 9th, 2009 at 4:40 pm
I like the first one!
November 9th, 2009 at 5:16 pm
Hard to pick as they all were cute!
November 9th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
Such a creative idea. When I show my customers all of the wonderful designs I’m sure someone will come up with something just as unique. I’m loving Zippy, Sadie & Speedy’s Club House.
November 9th, 2009 at 8:16 pm
everyone did a great job! it was really hard to pick just one :]
November 9th, 2009 at 10:49 pm
That mosaic one is amazing!!
November 10th, 2009 at 12:52 am
I also enjoyed the mosaic one as I am from Barcelona!
November 10th, 2009 at 3:43 am
Awesome designs. People put a lot of work into those. So hard to choose. Gratz to whoever wins.
November 10th, 2009 at 6:26 am
Decisions, decisions, this was a hard one. Good job folks…..
