Paw it Forward

What can this be?
Oh my goodness, such excitement in the house today!  A knock at the door and a box delivered for the cats.


With little regard for his personal safety, Archie jumps head first into the box to investigate


 Ben steps up to see what it's all about..."look you fools there's a card".

"It's from Amy and the House Of Cats...yippee it's our Paw it Forward package"!  I helped the boys open their package (it must be such a drag not having opposable thumbs) and the loot just kept on coming, it was like the Fantasia of cat toys.
There were two bags of cat treats, and a silky pouch of nip, one foamy ball, four poms, three balls with bells, one large crazy unbalanced ball that moved on it’s own, catnip bubbles (which I will get on video when we open them), two yarn tubes with rattling stuff inside.
There were two three turquoise mice, one mauve mouse and a shiny pink pillow which were all nip-filled and made the cats crazy.  There was also a cat dancer which was a gigantic hit and a refillable catnip cupcake.  All of this was packed in a funky canvas kitty shopping bag. 

Holy cow Amy, did I forget anything?  Every cat played with every toy and nothing was left untouched :-)

It was really the most fantastic selection of goodies.  My boys would like to thank Amy, Kirzon, Lola, Virgil, Barney, Gus & Stella for their overwhelming generosity!
Now, who else would like to play?  Just leave a comment on today’s post and I'll choose the first three kitties who say they want to Paw it Forward.  It doesn’t matter where you live, let’s just keep the fun going!

Wow we can't believe it got there so quickly - mom finally sent it on Saturday and we thought it would be a week to get up to you! We are so glad you liked the toys - we made mom get an assortment of stuff, since some kitties like one thing and then some like others. Oh, and the bag, well, technically it is for your mom, but we wanted to let you know it is GREAT for taking naps on - we kept driving mom crazy by climbing on them and trying to nap before she got everything packed up! We hope that you all find something you like!!!

Wow, what a haul! That's fabulous, and such a great thing to do.

We'd love to participate, but can't do it at this time, not until our mom gets Derry's vet bills (and then the fence and then her credit card) paid off. :-(

We're sure you'll have lots of kitties who are able to do it, though!

Enjoy the goodies!!!!
