The big day is finally upon us, and the kitties have worked hard to choose three lucky winners.
Buster contemplated the daunting task before him, eying the over 300 slips of paper liberally doused in catnip crumbs. (That's right - you who submitted herbs in an attempt to bribe the judges may not have considered that all the papers would become contaminated as they awaited the big moment, making it impossible 
for cats to tell which had originally carried the enticing offering. Oh well, they appreciated it nonetheless.)

Between the two of them, they sniffed and snuffled, drooled a little and scattered, eventually choosing three lucky and very random winners.
#1 Breathing Beside Us, who gets first choice of the two originally offered pendants.
#2 Greenish Lady, who will receive the one BBU declines.
#3 Meandering Pearl, who will get the mystery prize.
This was much fun (despite a little work, which is to be expected when one chooses to hand write and cut the entries, and eschew modern conveniences like random number generators. Although, I must say my number generators were about as random as they come) and I wish I had more prizes to offer.
Thanks to all of you for visiting, looking at my site, leaving clever and/or sweet comments. I hope we will continue to get to know each other.
I do wish this was a less stalky, more trustful age, in which postal addresses were not kept so secret, as I had the urge to send out some further spontaneous surprises. Requesting an address though, sort of takes both the spontaneous and the surprise out of the idea.
