No, that’s not a typo, though I do often fat-paw the keys when posting. First, you’ve probably been wondering where I’ve been. Well, need I remind you that it’s the holiday season? I’ve noticed that humans become very stressed out at this time of year! It might surprise you to know that I’ve been busy with holiday chores, too. First, I decided to decorate my cat tree this year:
I know it’s not a very elaborate display, but rigging up lights is hard work, especially when you don’t possess opposable thumbs.
I’ve also been spending a lot of time guarding the gifts that Mama C has assembled for her family. You see, Mama C sometimes frets about things, so I wanted to reassure her that her Christmas purchases will be safe under my watch.
Oops, you caught me while on a little break.
Anyway, back to that headline. A couple of days ago Mama C went to stroke my head and she noticed that there was a sticky substance on my right ear. She bent closer to investigate with her nose and got a good whiff of pine! Ha, and to think Those Two were under the impression that I never bother the Christmas tree! Then last night they caught me drinking out of the tree stand. Hey, I was just trying to join them during Happy Hour. Because nothing makes me happier than being with my family.

Dear Mr. Oxbow, Glad to see you have some Xmas Spirit in you! Luv the Lights on the Cat tree. So noble of you to guard all the presents. It is such an important job. There is a lot of time, thought and expense that ‘s packed in those gifts. As for imbibing in the new “water dish” under the tree…the terpenes in the sap are a mild hallucinogenic. Don’t drink too much….you’ll fall off your decorated cat tree! I wish you and both of your kind, loving Mamas a most wonderful Christmas in your new home.

Thanks, Joyce and Babs! And a merry Christmas to both of you and your families, too! And thanks for the tip on the hallucinogenic properties that might lurk in the tree water, Babs. I think I’ll go put on some ’60s music and quench my thirst!
