Teh Qte Lives On

Although Cute Overload is now likely off the Web for good, Cutetropolis will carry on. Here’s my promise to you, the reader:

  • To keep Cutetropolis online and updated with fresh comedy and cuteness for as long as I practically can;
  • To keep you informed about any changes that may affect your enjoyment of the site, including service outages outside my control via this site’s Facebook and Twitter pages.

I know that many readers, especially those who comment, have made Cutetropolis a part of their daily routine. I’m honored by it, and I will work as hard as I can to earn your respect and trust. I enjoy what I do here and want to keep doing it. If you want to help out, you can:

    Well, there goes half my “happiness” bookmarks folder, but Yay for the cute!

    A door closes, a window opens…..

    And a cat immediately sits in the window being cute and adorable for photos. 🙂

    Thank you for keeping us in QTE, NTMTOM!

      Then a dog sneaks up and scares the cat half out of its wits…!

        Hehe…I just watched that video again a few minutes ago.

        (The one where the cats are watching a bird through the door and the dog pounces and they all jump sky high.)

          I laughed myself silly over that one!

    Thank you for the customer service mission statement. After feeling devoted to the Old Ranch over a number of years, I still have a wee bit of a bitter aftertaste for the manner in which it was shut down. I am glad to see your commitment to keeping us informed. That is all I could ever want in exchange for my loyalty to this web-place.

    Thanks Mike. Your pledge is sweet and reassuring.

  5. Dana September 29, 2016 / 1:41 pm

    Thank you NTMTOM for your wonderful site! I look forward to checking it each and every day.

    The way the Old Ranch left us in the dark and ignored our queries as to what was going on before it closed left me feeling like we didn’t matter. So thank you being there for us when we ask questions and for making us feel like we are an integral part of Cutetropolis.

      Hear hear!

  7. debg September 29, 2016 / 2:03 pm

    Mike, your site is one of the few things keeping me going during this difficult time. Bless you, and all the wonderful commenters who hang out here.

  8. jlamusings September 29, 2016 / 2:07 pm

    Thank you for not only for your hard work in updating the site regularly but for your kind communications to us about changes & such! Much appreciated!!!!
    The pics, captions and the witty comments really make some dark days a little brighter (not only for me, I’m sure). 🙂

  9. Lori September 29, 2016 / 2:34 pm

    What they said! In other words, ditto to all of the above. Thanks a million for bringing a smile or fourteen every day. lord knows this world needs all the smiles it can get! <3

  10. Faye September 29, 2016 / 3:09 pm

    Mike you are a real gentleman. Thank you for forging ahead with the cute. Cutetropolis is a wonderful refuge. ?

  11. N. Fritz September 29, 2016 / 3:38 pm

    Cuteoverload gone? Shocking! Isn’t there a mirror site or somewhere where those posts are archived?

  12. Murray C. September 29, 2016 / 3:48 pm

    Mike, I couldn’t agree more with all of the other commenters about your kindness, decency, and good humor. I have a great time here and thank you so much.

  13. jerzowa September 29, 2016 / 4:06 pm

    Thank you so much Mike. Cutetropolis is my hometown 🙂

  14. Luv Bunny September 29, 2016 / 4:14 pm

    I can’t say it any better than all the above commenters, but add me as another happy fan. I was upset when CO suddenly shut down and was glad I somehow found your website. It’s nice to forget about the world problems for a short time and get my daily website animal fix that includes many awwwws, squeeees, big smiles, a good laugh and an occasional sad story, from you, NTMTOM. Thanks ?????????????????

  15. Ilonka September 29, 2016 / 4:28 pm

    I also would like to add to the long line of thank yous. Cutetropolis is a safe, kind place in a world of uncertainty. I am usually a lurker on the web but have felt comfortable contributing here because of the care you have taken Mike, to ensure we feel welcomed and included. I am confident in saying that there are many quiet participants to whom you have provided these same feelings and experiences as are echoed in all these comments. THANK YOU ??

  16. Laura September 29, 2016 / 4:31 pm

    I was so *incredibly* grateful that you started your wonderful site upon the demise of the Old Ranch, and your openness with us, your devoted minions and eternal fans, has been just wonderful. Thank you so much for all that you do, and long may you do it!!!

  17. LunaChickFringe September 29, 2016 / 4:36 pm

    I don’t think I can say much more than everyone else. I was always more of a lurker than a poster both at the old place and here. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t an integral part of my daily routine. It’s not just the “cute” but the smart, incisive captions and commentary that are melded with it that makes me feel I have found another tribe to be a part of. Your transparency and honesty is valued and appreciated.

  18. Clairdelune September 29, 2016 / 5:13 pm

    All the commenters here have already expressed what I also feel – so I will not try to say in other words what has already been said eloquently – only thank you, NTMTOM, and here is hoping for the longevity and success of Cutetropolis!!

  19. Phred's Mom September 29, 2016 / 5:14 pm

    We’re with you, Mike.

  20. 6rabbits September 29, 2016 / 5:31 pm

    Just gonna say “ditto” to what everyone else has so eloquently said!??☺️

  21. BB/VA September 29, 2016 / 6:08 pm

    NTMTOM, I always said you were the best admin at CO, and you have proved it by stepping up and continuing the commitment to Teh QTE. Much appreciation, and I’m still waiting for that coffee table book…

  22. Flowerfanatic September 29, 2016 / 6:26 pm

    I certainly echo all the praises and thanks others have so eloquently already stated. I appreciate all of Tom’s effort and hard work to keep The QTE continuing. Each email I see that’s from The QTE is always first on my ‘gotta see’ NOW viewing. I’m not much of a contributor but certainly do enjoy all the comments from this great group of people and all the links they provide for the rest of us to enjoy each day. Bless all of you.

  23. maia September 29, 2016 / 8:28 pm

    Add me to the list of grateful fans of NTMTOM. Thanks for all that you do.

  24. benvolio September 29, 2016 / 11:42 pm

    Mike, thanks for doing what you do. You make the world a tiny bit better.

  25. Crazy Quail September 30, 2016 / 2:41 am

    I’d almost given up hope on filling the CO void. I found Cutetropolis a few days ago. Thank you for providing daily doses of cuteness, Mike! You are a wonderful person.

    Thanks also for explaining how to help support your website.

  26. Sandra September 30, 2016 / 4:51 am

    Thanks Mike for your work of ze qte here 🙂 It is needed and cherished every day.

  27. Tina September 30, 2016 / 9:19 am

    Thank you NTMTOM! Love your wit.

  28. hilz September 30, 2016 / 9:20 am

    Samesies to everyone else! I’d be so lost without this site!

  29. Deborah September 30, 2016 / 7:09 pm

    Thanks, NTMTOM, for your good work here. This is my weekly escape from the madness of the world.
