Happy Birthday Sawyer!
and Happy Anniversary to the VHS release of CDD, 8/18/97

Cats Don't Dance premiered in theaters March 26th, 1997. A few months later on 8/18/97, the VHS release hit the stores and those who might have missed the all too brief theater run had a second chance. For those of us who had fallen in love with the film on the big screen, it was a second chance to relive the fun.  Since 8/18/97 marks such a happy occasion in CDD fandom, it seemed only right that it should be Sawyer's unofficial birthday. Since Danny's Birthday event went over well, we felt Sawyer should enjoy the same. A request for submissions for this project was posted in early August on the CDD_II yahoogroup, - the main source of CDD fan activity. The instructions were to draw, find a photo, or do a photo manipulation of something they thought would make a nice gift for Sawyer, along with a little written sentiment. Since drawing was optional, non artists could take a shot at this too, the emphasis was on idea more than anything else. This little webpage will show the results. :)
Many thanks to the fans and the folks at CDD_II yahoogroup for making this possible. I hope you had as much fun with this as I did in putting it all together.
Btw, Sawyer is a LEO.
