How I spent Black Friday

As per usual, the cats & I spent Black Friday putting up the Yule tree and decorating the house. Naturally, they all had to immediately begin playing underneath it before I was able to finish placing the ornaments on ...

 "Hmm, it doesn't smell real..."

"Putting up the Yule tree is such hard work..."

After spending much needed playtime having fun playing together while mom attempted to finish up decorating the tree, the cats helped adorn the rest of the house ...

Precious Memories

 "Until one has loved an animal, a part of their soul remains unawakened..."

After the devastating loss of our most recent feline family member Mr. Earl Gray, I decided to put together a couple of family photo albums of ALL of our precious and beloved kitty cats we have had the blessing to have shared our lives with throughout these many years, both past and present. So, after finding so many great pics that I had forgotten I had in the attic, I ran right out to the local CVS store up the street and went straight to work  ...

It did my heart so very good to find them after all this time and know that I could pull these albums out of the living room closet and enjoy them over and over again whenever I wished as they will now be forever preserved. And, surprisingly, this time-consuming project has actually helped heal my soul a bit since we lost our beloved Mr. Gray. He LOVED his picture taken and was the absolute best model kitty that I think I have ever seen in my life. With these pics, he has given me such a wonderful keepsake to remember him by and I am forever grateful for having the chance to share a piece of my heart with him.

Mr. Earl Gray, "A Touch of Grace" indeed ...

And so, from the cats and myself, here's wishing you ALL a very happy and healthy Thanksgiving holiday!!!

Busy, busy, busy ...

Hey everyone, it's Midnight. Just thought I would grab my mommy's computer for a quick post. She has been so very busy the past couple of weeks cleaning up the "really messy attic," she says, that she hardly even has time to fuss over me (*sigh*) lately.

Oh well, I know that she loves and adores me and that I am her "Little Prince Charming." After all, I am such a loyal little kitty that I am always there to greet her at the door when she comes home from work every night and I like to follow her around the house because I am so worried that she will leave me. 

Anyway, I also wanted to wish everyone a Happy Halloween and a Blessed Samhain from me and my siblings ~ Haley, Kiki, and Tabitha!
