Walter and Jozef started theirs when the postman arrived with the parcel containing new catnip mice we have especially made with the best quality catnip. I put it on the table but Jozef sniffed it out lol and bit and tore the envelope open which prompted Walter to join in too.
The next mice which arrived for them from a cat loving friend were already wrapped in bonny paper but didn’t last long under their little tree.
The scratching posts had already been claimed and now they only have one parcel each left, knitted catnip mice from another friend, but meanwhile they’ve discovered a new game, with red tissue paper of all things! A sheet floated down and opened up a whole lot of fun to be had.
They’ve been Supercats in red cloaks, hidden under it and sprang out at each other and us, played with mice and balls under it, drove it along the carpet, used it as a tablecloth, but it got so tatty we had to go and buy a new pack of 5 sheets as it has really fascinated them both.
Visitors give us a strange look seeing bits of red tissue paper around the floor but as we are both known as Catwoman here they realise there must be a connection lol
Of course it’s folded up and put away if we leave them alone, Christmas especially is the time to ‘think cat’ and leave nothing around they could hurt themselves on or swallow.
Should we buy another pack and wrap up for them for Santa Claws to bring or will they have tired of it by then?
Who knows lol
I think you should get anothe pack of tissue as I don’t think they will tire of it ours never do!!
Lovely to see them enjoying themselves so much and so lovely they have their own tree!!
Our cats are part of our family as well so naturally they are part of our Christmas; a huge part in fact!
Hope you and your boys have a fantastic tissue paper filled Christmas!!
Those lovely boys!
Well that’s sorted then,I’ll get my cats some tissue paper for Christmas lol does it have to be red?
Seriously though my cats and dogs don’t have a tree but they do have presents I keep away until Santa has been lol as like my kids they’d be in to them if on sight.
Happy Christmas everyone
Happy Christmas to you Rose and your family. It has to be red tissue paper 😉
Yes Rose it has to be red lol We tried a gold piece each this morning, they weren’t very enthusiastic.
Happy Christmas to you and your family and rescue pets
Thanks Hairless Cat Girl, no they are not siblings although they do look alike. Walter is a month older than Jozef, we rescued him at 8 weeks from a horrible home, he had fleas and worms and bad ears and a heart murmur. But with good food and lots of tlc he soon recovered and wanted our older cat Ebony to play, but she hated him on sight. Then we heard of a young mother cat with kittens desperate for homes as she had no milk and wasn’t coping with her babies, Jo was only 6 weeks old when he came, so he and Walt amused each other, played together and grew up together and left Ebby in peace. They are 11 years old now and still very playful, though not so much together as with us.
