My cats are like kids on Christmas morning!

As you may know, DH and I are childless, and, with no family around to celebrate, so our 9 cats are even more like family than usual. I always buy them treats, expensive cat food, and of course, toys.

Well, I even have stockings for them, too. And, like kids, I have to hide their gifts, but for slightly different reasons! On Christmas morning, we gather in the living room, and open gifts. I called the cats in, and a few actually came! They sat around, waiting for their gifts, and sniffing them. The tiny catnip mice from the groceery store were a big hit! I threw down all 4 mice, and Jasmine actually growled at another cat (under my chair, so I don't know who), over posession of the mouse! (The mice were so good, Loki even passed up on attacking the bows and ribbons. )

I know it doesn't sound very exciting, but watching our "kids" play with their new toys really made the day for us, and gave us a few much-needed laughs.

Merry Christmas to all of you and your pets!

Aaaw!! Where's the pictures!! I know it's exciting! I enjoy watching my fur babies opening their toys and playing in the gift wrap as much as I do my skin babies!!

Aww!! That sounds so sweet! You really should show us some pics!!

Aww that so cute!!! Limerick was excited this morning too. He was jumping on me at 630 this morning!! When I finally got up, he ran straight for his new scratching post. It was too funny!!

That's so cute! Unfortunately we haven't been able to get to the store yet to get the kitties their Christmas presents so they will have to get them a little bit late this year. They will each get a special canned food dinner tonight along with a little bite of the ham we're having.
