Ah……Saturday…….the weekend……..not that it makes all that much difference for my family because my parents are retired and home all the time instead of leaving me alone while they work. It’s just that Saturday feels different anyway – don’t you think?
I’m kind of thinking that since tomorrow is Mother’s Day (don’t forget your MOMS!) I should make something to give to Mom. After all, not only is she my Mom but she’s also my best friend. But what to make?
I could pick a bunch of HER flowers from the garden and make a corsage or bouquet……after all, I do have extra toes on my front claws so I can use my “hands” pretty well – picking flowers is a cinch. But she gets flowers all the time….so it’s not that special.
I could do a sand sculpture for her since I have a HUGE and ready supply of cat litter down in the basement but that wouldn’t be so special since she’s downstairs several times a day cleaning my litter box and might notice I’d “borrowed” some litter from the box.
I could make breakfast for her tomorrow morning but I don’t really think a can of tuna & shrimp or ocean whitefish or even salmon and crab would really be “her thing” so even THAT wouldn’t be special.
I know! Tomorrow morning I’ll hop up on the bed (because I don’t sleep with my parents at night since I’m all grown up) and go up close to her face and purr REEEEEEEAAAAALLLLL loud and when she wakes up I’ll give her a big kiss and a head bump. Now I KNOW she’ll love that and I also know that it would be SPECIAL.
Gosh, I’m glad I solved THAT problem! What will you be doing for your Mom tomorrow to celebrate Mother’s Day?????
Here’s that old picture of me and my Mom AND me in a basket which I can barely get the FRONT part of my body into these days…. 😀

Aw, Sammy, you were such a cute kitten, and then you grew up to be SO handsome! And I love that picture of your Mom holding you. It’s easy to see how much she loved you, and her love has just grown stronger everyday!
I’m sure whatever you do for your Mom for Mother’s Day will mean the world to her. A big kiss and a head bump: priceless!
Love, Sundae

Aw gee Sundae….thanks for all the compliments. I guess Mom has always been my “safe place” – I love my Dad but it’s Mom I run to if I’m scared or nervous and since I’m feral I’m scared and nervous a lot! 😀 I hope you and YOUR Mommy have a special Sunday too. I know she AND your Motor Daddy love you to pieces!

Hi Nellie! I hope you and Kozmo give your Mommy lots of attention today. I’m sure she’s pooped with all the work she’s been doing so a day of rest and relaxation (and kitty attention) would probably be most appreciated. Tell your Mommy we wish her a Happy Mother’s Day will you?????

I like your idea, Sammy. But I’ve decided to kick it up a notch. What would be better than a 4am cat tongue exfoliating facial for Mother’s Day??

Oh Pedro that is a FABULOUS idea! I’ll be anxious to hear how your Mom feels about her facial to celebrate this special day……as for me, the head bump seemed to do the trick.
