Hairball Awareness Day - Loving Our Brushing

Actions speak louder than words, and as you can see we cats make the most of this "holiday."  Hairball Awareness Day" which comes on the last Friday of every month is of particular importance to us (cuz our human HAS to brush us then) but truthfully we celebrate it all year long.


We kitties especially shed our hairs in

Spring and this day is dedicated to all humans knowing that and brushing us! If we try to accomplish the important task of licking our rapidly growing furs  all by ourselves we'll get the dreaded hairballs.
As you can see I'm in love with this pink brush - Peaches

Hairballs can be seriously injurious to our health.  There are many ways to prevent them: frequent brushings, special foods and many other means.  The nape of our necks and near our  tail are particular areas of need of brushings!

There are also special gels one can purchase at pet stores and special food for preventing hairballs.  


Our human uses the Fur-minator brush on me cuz I my furs grow really fast.  I love all brushes though. I'm particularly in love with my human's pink brush which I stole from her for our own use. Paprika feels the same.  So my human uses both Furminator AND our special "pink" brush.

Paprika's furs are much shorter than mine but she doesn't know that.  When she sees me being brushed, she comes and sits by our human's feet, pathetic and forlorn until SHE gets a brushing. 


My great accomplishment-using the pink brush by myself@ - Paprika
The pink brush is one of our great addictions. In fact if we see it lying around, we will brush ourselves with it.  We know how! 

Here is Paprika in this picture, savoring that brush!Please everyone.  Give your kitties lots of brushings this spring whether they like it or not!

Cats Go Shopping


I asked Peaches & Paprika to go shopping for me.  I should have known better! -- Mom Carol

Friendly Fill-ins

1.  If I couldn't live in my country I'd live in: Martinique! I'd love being near both ocean and mountains.

2.  I wish had kept my old diaries from childhood. Since age 9 I kept a diary  in which I wrote every single day. When I moved in with my husband I put the box with my old diaries & other stuff in storage.  The storage company lost the box! I tried for years to find them but never did.  I'd love to know what I had to say back then.

3. I would choose Ocean over Mountains. But I love roaring rivers too like the Big Thompson River in Colorado.  I would also choose humorous friends over non-humorous people. What's life without laughs?

4. Little tiffs  amongst friends don't matter in the long run.

Cats Just Wanna Wear Masks....


Peaches here!  Unbelievably, when our human had the bright quirky idea of cats joining humans in spirit and wearing masks, there was a mad rush of all our Facebook Friends to be in the parade. Who would've thought!!!???


If you would like to see our MASKED CAT PARADE
please click on the Masked Cat collage!

Of course it IS also Selfie Sunday following Cat-ur-day Art. 


So we decided to join both. But I am telling Paprika AGAIN...it's about PROTECTION, NOT fashion!

Love, Peaches

Our 3rd Annual Easter Parade

KITTY EASTER PARADE - CLICK ON PICTURE!

Here is our 3rd annual kitty Easter Parade of our Facebook readers.  Our human said she wasn't going to do one this year but our furrriends talked her into it!  Just think of all those captive humans at home having to entertain all their kitties!  This will help...

It's a well-spent 5 minutes! Our own Easter Greeting  is below!




We are joining Cat on My Head's Sunday Hop.  This isn't the Easter we expected.  But we give thanks for all who stay safe during this scary time and wish for you to find  your own special happiness in one or more expected ways.
