Santa Claws paid an early visit to our house this year, thanks to the Kitty & Canine Blogger Gift Exchange, which paired our one-year-old fur children Molly and Twix with Cashew and Macadamia, whose mom Erin writes the fun and fabulous Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Silliness blog.
From feather wands to Party Mix treats, a laser pointer, crawl cube, fish-themed throw toys, letter from Santa and more, the girls were in Christ-mouse heaven from the moment the package arrived, since even before any toys were actually pulled out, they had already laid eyes on a few of their all-time favorite things – newspaper clippings, bags, and of course, the box itself!
Here, a few fun photos taken during the play frenzy, which was the perfect addition to a weekend already filled with other holiday activities, including sending cards, shopping and enjoying a few sips of spiced holiday ale.
A huge thanks to Erin, Cashew and Macadamia for making our kitties purr with happiness, and also to exchange organizers Hannah and Kelly! Once we know that Cash and Mac have received their treats, I'll also be sure to share the Christmas-themed goodies we sent their way.
How are you getting into the holiday spirit so far, and how do you usually celebrate with your pets?
Oh my word that last picture is way too cute! xo
ReplyDeleteHow cute! You've reminded me that I still need to get a present for our family dog (who lives with just my mom now) :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, the kitty pictures are melting my heart!
ReplyDeleteAnd this year, I'm working on sewing some little stockings for my kitties.
How cute, looks like your kitties really loved all their presents. I am sending mine out today, hope it would reach California before Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThey are ADORABLE! I could never imagine a cat getting so excited about presents (cats always seem so non-nonchalant to me) but this is just adorbs! Thank you so much for participating!
ReplyDeleteOhhh so CUTES!!! I lurve the first photo: "S'for me? In der? All of its?"

ReplyDeleteAw! I'm awaiting my gift. I mean, Charlie is! Enter to win 5 shirts from StyleMint!
ReplyDeleteOH. MY.GOSH! how fun is that?!?!
ReplyDeleteBevo, our Boston Terrier, has a present still in it's box. He usually gets an over-sized rawhide bone that usually lasts for the entire year. Last year's bone is not even half-way done so I think we'll have to skip that tradition this year. Of course he'll get toys and probably some special to eat.
ReplyDeleteHAHA! Looks like they enjoyed everything! :D

ReplyDeleteThis is way too friggin' adorable. I love animals! I so miss having a pet. :( Mr. A and I want to save all of the homeless animals in the world, so you can count on us having tons of fur babies in the future.
