Festive Felines


 Merry Christmas to you from Winston and Emily!  We hope everyone had a lovely, relaxing time.  Our Mom had a whirlwind last couple of days.  She worked on Christmas Eve morning.
 She said the walk to work was beautiful!  There was no snow on the ground and the sidewalks were clear.  This makes her happy!  She only had to work a half day and then she went to visit her family.  They live about an hour away from her.   When she got home she discovered not one but two Christmas cards in her mailbox.  This made her ridiculously happy!
She was almost packed and ready to go.  She gave Winston his medicine first, though.   (bleh!)
 Mom went to her sister's house to celebrate with a yummy turkey dinner and presents.   Then headed off to her Mom's house to spend some time with her.  Do you recognize this kitty?  Her name is Pearl.  She is our Grandmum's feline.  Pearl is spoiled rotten.  Mom says she is adorable!
 Pearl posing beside Mom's Christmas gift on Christmas morning.  Mom said Pearl even let her cuddle her.   We just think Pearl was sucking up to our Mom.   Mom did say she got her treats for Christmas.
 Mom was trying to get a photo of Pearl sitting on her kitty condo by the window.  However, the sun was just starting to come up so all you can make out is Pearl's silhouette!  That kitty condo is one of her favourite places to survey her feline kingdom.
 Mom came home on Christmas Day and then went to visit her friend, K.  K has the most amazing tree.  It is decorated with characters from children's storybooks and cute woodland critters.  Mom thought this pink squirrel with a scarf was particularly fetching.
 They had a yummy lasagna for lunch and then decided to take a brisk walk.  The woods were beautiful.  Mom said it was very quiet and mysterious.  You can see the got a dusting of snow for Christmas.  It was just enough snow to give a festive atmosphere but not enough to make driving a challenge!
They came back from their walk for tea and goodies and then a drive to view Christmas lights around the city!  This is the angel at the park!

When Mom finally got back home she decided to watch a Christmas movie on her DVD player but ended up falling asleep.   Haha.   We are a good influence on Mom.

Mom is going to spend the rest of today cuddling with us (if we allow it!) and watching that Christmas movie from last night.
Emily and I hope everyone had a lovely day!
Happy, festive purrs

  1. Happy Holidays to you all! We're glad your mom had such a nice time with her family. Our human would love to be only an hour from her mom, or her dad for that matter. Tell your mom not to take that granted!

    We did have a white Christmas after all, as we'd had an inch or two of snow. Enough to make it icy, after the deluge of rain we'd had last Friday.

    Enjoy the rest of the holidays!

    Purrs and peace,
    Nicki and Derry

  5. Sounds as if your Mom had a purrfect Chrissymouse. And what were you two getting up to while she was out and about? Did Santa Claws come for a visit? Or did you just take long naps (the BEST way to spend Chrissymouse Day - or ANY day for that matter...MOL, MOL, MOL).
    Happy Holidays to all of you -:including the lovely Pearl.

  7. Just stopping by to say "add-on items" via Amazon.ca for great deals on tons of stuff, including cat toys. :-) You do have to spend $25 first before you can add-on, but with Amazon, there's always something needed one can order. (Example: Command Hooks! I'm the queen of those things. LOL.)
