Latest N2 News on Video Game/ Fund Raiser/ Website

Well it's been a few weeks since the last time I checked in so I just wanted to update everyone on how we're coming along with our save the show efforts.  So far we've raised $1907.00 in three weeks raising 35% of our goal.


The deadline is March 28, 2013 and it appears we just may reach our goal if we can keep up this pace :)

So on my FaceBook Fan Page I've been having you fans post pictures of your cats.  I've then posted them each hour from 12pm to 10pm.  As well we have some awesome fan art that you've been posting on my wall as well.  I had no idea that you'd like it so much and that some of you would have such a positive response from other fans, with many of your pics getting over 600 likes.  So I've decided to add this as a regular section to my official website in the coming month.  Every day you will have the chance to vote every 10 mins for your fav pic.  You will be able to send in your pet pics once it's up and live.  Until that time however we've received all the pics we can handle.  Within the first week we've received 100's of pics, I've tried my best to keep up but soon realized within the first hour that I needed to pull in some extra help with this.  So my official website will soon be able to process all of your requests.  I'm creating a fan membership sign in section as well.  You'll be able to sign in and create your own profile or use your Facebook or twitter account to log in like you can with other sites that provide this option.

Every time you vote for a pet while your signed in you'll be able to accumulate "Preppy Points".  These points will add up so that you can claim all sorts of prizes like Face Time chats, phone calls, free albums, paw print autographed pics, being in a video and meeting me and Kona.  These are some of the rewards and we're looking at adding more once it gets going.  You'll be able to get lots of "Preppy Points" another way as well….. with….

MY VIDEO GAME!

My new video game will be out in a few months and you can earn all sorts of "Preppy Points" and build up your "Preppy Meter".  The video game will have Kona flying high in the air in her hover litter box.  She will need to dodge Oglogs that try to capture her and throw things like "Light Beer" at her.  Or you can also be me… oh… I mean… you can be "Super Hero Cat" and use special attributes like a Super Sonic Purr and other Preppy Powers

We're also working on another game where you'll be able to walk all around the house as me or Kona and explore all sorts of places as well as feed me, pet me, change litter, kind of like a web kin but WAYYYYY CooooLER!

I've also been hard at work writing new episodes for you, hopefully if we reach our fundraiser goal earlier than expected we can get to work on them soon.

Hope this helps give you a way cool update on everything N2

Stay Preppy,

Your feline friend,

N2

Save the Show Info


Hello Everyone,

The fundraiser is finally here.


I'm very excited about this because it's an opportunity for the fans to come together and show how much this series has meant to them.

Here's a link to the Save the Show Fund Raiser 

When I uploaded the first episode I never thought I would have touched the lives and hearts of so many people.  Many of your kind words have helped me to push on through the years continuing to make more episodes, despite my spine injury last year. You've told me how I have a way of brightening your worst day, making you smile and laugh just when you needed it.  You've mentioned that even though you can't have a cat of your own I have become your cat and you've come to love and cherish me.  Perhaps most notably, you want to know... How does Kona get rescued from the future:)

I've reached a point now however where I need to make a very serious decision.  I've sacrificed my personal savings and time to do all I can to bring you the show but reality has now set in.
Do I stick with my current full time (yes, it's true, cats have now entered the work force) job and say goodbye to the show? Or do I take the plunge and dive in releasing an N2 episode every 1-2 weeks for you?  I can no longer do both and must choose one.
If I make the commitment to leave my job and work on the show for you I will need your support.  You have always been there for me and reassured me that you would help if it ever came to this and now I'm humbly asking you for your assistance

What We Need & What You Get
In order for us to complete Season 3 and keep the show going we will need to raise $5500.00  This will allow me to work on the show for YOU releasing an episode every 1-2 weeks.  The amount of $5500.00 will provide me with $1000.00 a month for 5 months to complete Season 3. Any amount we raise above our $5500 goal will propel us into Season 4.  For every $1000 we raise over $5500 will give us an extra month to keep the show going into Season 4!
You need to be rewarded though, so here are some "Totally Awesome, YEP", perks for you!

If you prefer that the episode about you be private and not part of the series then it will not air on YouTube but will be sent to you via DVD as a personal copy (Please contact VersaBC to determine if your content will be approved)

The Impact
Black cats and shelter cats carry a stigma.  Many feel that they bring bad luck or that they do not make good companions in comparison to those you could purchase from a breeder.  With your support my show will continue to raise awareness that adopted pets (especially the shunned black ones) are some of the most loving, affectionate pets you could ever own.  I'm living proof that a black shelter pet can make a difference in our society.  I believe I've  helped to shed some of this stigma and will continue to do so with your support.
I cannot begin to explain how much YOU have touched my life with your comments and support.  I feel that this show brings so much to the lives of our young ones and also those who seek entertainment that isn't tainted with vulgar language, violence, and graphic images etc.  
With your generous support the show will continue.  It will continue to bring joy to the hearts of all those who value creative/innovative (kitty cat) entertainment.  Together we will be able to spread the message that black cats are OK and not to be feared.  They are affectionate, kind, gentle and loving pets.
Please join me in making a difference and providing entertainment that you personally have an opportunity to be a part of and proud of.  Your contributions will make it possible for the show to continue
Other Ways You Can Help
Some of you just can’t contribute, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t help:
Share my video's with your friends and family, let them know about our "Save the Show" campaign and that this little kitty needs there help.  One person alone will struggle to make a difference, but together we can accomplish our goal and save the show.
