The Famous Ebay Cornflake

From the begining Frazzled Cat has always supported charities, apart from producing designs for the charity sector, Frazzle also offers to produce an image free of charge to a selected charity each year, this has always been a private matter which we do not use for publicity purposes. At Christmas 2004 Frazzle decided to do something a little different after reading several newspaper stories about pieces of toast that resembled Mother Teresa or buns resembling Elvis etc, so we thought what about a totally unique cornflake, it's unique because it resembles nothing except a cornflake! We decided to auction on Ebay and give the funds to the Dogs Trust in Leeds where we obtained our much loved friend Dino who sadly died a couple of years ago. Soon after we started getting emails from people as far afield as South Africa, Canada and Australia, it had attracted worldwide attention, bids had reached £60 with expectations that it may reach almost £1000 when without warning Ebay cancelled the auction, people were furious with Ebay and we received three different explanations as to why it was cancelled, a newspaper reporter received a different explantion to ours, so why it was cancelled was a mystery which is unlikely ever to be solved, what is for sure is that the Dogs Trust in Leeds were deprived of much needed funds at a time of year when they need money the most
