And the Winner is.......

Opus and Roscoe for CCSI!

We had no idea what was in store for us when we attended the Oscars on Sunday night. We thought we were going to watch the awards show, when we found ourselves to be winners! The wonderful and talented Skeezix presented us EACH with Acatemy awards for our work on the CCSI series.

Words can not express how Skeetzix's award touched our hearts.

Opus's speech:
I am extremely humbled by this great honor. Working for CCSI has been a lot of hard work, but it is work that do with love, passion and incredible enthusiasm.

First I must thank Skeezix for this wonderful award. This thoughtful cat was kind enough to hand out awards to his feline and canine buddies when we were all snubbed by the humans this year. You are a sweet kitty and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will place this award on my blog with great pride.

To my fellow producers, Ruis and Karl, you are a beautiful couple, not only professionally but personally. I am proud to call you both my colleagues and my friends. I have learned so much from you both and look forward to working with you again.

To our executive producer Sassy, it was you who came up with the idea of an animal created series. With you, there would be no CCSI. Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and friendship. Working with you each day makes work feel more like fun.

As a producer, writer and actor on the show, I know first hand the rigors that come with each of these demanding jobs. They are all important. To every animal who is associated with CCSI in any way, I applaud your commitment and contributions. We wouldn't have a show with you.

To my humans, I thank you dearly for loving me and treating me like your child rather than your pet. I have enjoyed the many years we have spent together, curled up on your warm, loving lap. You have given me all that an old cat can wish for.

And finally, to the yin of my yang, to the peas of my carrots, to the black of my white, Roscoe. You are no only my brother, but my also my best friend. Who would have known that two little farm cats from Indiana could go far together in life. You know that where ever you go, what ever you do, I will be right there at your side. From Indiana, to Italy to Hollywood, there is no "we" without thee. I love you dear brother. Thank you all!


Roscoe's speech:
They like us! They really, really like us! GRAZIE! THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH SKEEZIX! I LOVE YOU TOO OPUS!

After the ceremony, we spent the night celebrating!
And we partied like animals!
