Feline Friday: National Hug a Bear Day

Meows from Mudpie!

Today is National Hug a Bear Day, and while we don't have a picture of me hugging a teddy bear, I do have this soft bear rug that came in a CatLadyBox many years ago. This picture was taken way back in 2017, and I still lounge on it today! 

Feline Friday is simple to join. All you have to do is:

Post a picture, drawing, cartoon or video of a cat (They may be silly or cute). 

Shrimping

Meows from Mudpie!

Mommy and I can't believe Mo has been gone for over a month now. We still miss him so much. Our yard is empty without him.

Mommy was looking through her phone for pictures of him we never posted and she came across this one. Is this the purrfect example of a cat "shrimping" or what? 

Mommy took this picture from our dining room window. He used to love napping under a large bush there. It was a good place for us to keep an eye on him, and Mommy still catches herself looking out the window to see if he's there :(

Happy Halloween 2025

Meows from Mudpie! We hope you're having a pawsome Halloween!

Today is also the last Friday of the month, which means it's time for the Pet Photo Fails blog hop! 

This picture is super dark and you might not even be able to see what I was doing, but it was just too cute not to share. I was resting my head on my favorite mug of water, and fell asleep like that! Mommy told me not to drop my head in any further or I might drown!

That's my blooper...let's see yours!

Mommy's answers:

1. I like pumpkin spice mini sheet cake from Trader Joe's. I even have a couple extra stashed in the freezer! 

2. My favorite movie to watch around Halloween is The Nightmare Before Christmas.

3. If I could meet any Halloween creature, I'd choose Frankenstein or Dracula. Love those classic Universal Monsters!

Mudpie's answers:

4. I'd like a Halloween treat basket filled with squeezies!

Ghost Kitties Everywhere!

Meows from Mudpie!

To say Mommy is obsessed with ghost kitties would be an understatement. It's downright spooky at our house!

This bunch resides on a bookshelf between my bedroom and bathroom and they watch me every time I go by.

We made up a little story for these ghost kitty stuffies. Of course we have the orange kitty we named Mo. He has a mouse in his mouth because that was his favorite treat! Mommy said that I'm the black kitty with the trick or treat bag (which should have some squeezies sticking out of it), and she's the big ghost with the pumpkin spice latte. We're all out trick or treating together!

The above signs hang in our hallway, and these are in the kitchen...

 Everywhere I turn there's a ghost haunting me!

Embarrassing Baby Talk #SundaySelfie

Meows from Mudpie!

I can't believe I'm telling you this because it's SO embarrassing. 

I think I've mentioned before that one of Mommy's favorite nicknames for me is Muddy Poo-Poo. I kid you not. 

It gets worse. 

I always hang out with her in the kitchen late at night when she's picking up one last time before bed. Usually if I'm lucky I can score an extra treat or two. Lately she's started asking me, "Is Mudsy-wudsy-poo ready for nighty-nighty-poo on the blankie-wankie-poo?"

You can't make this stuff up!

And now our weekly answers for the Friendly Fill-Ins challenge, hosted by 15andmeowing and Four-Legged Furballs!

1. My hometown is where I still live today. I love that I'm in a (fairly) quiet suburb (except for the high school at the top of the street) with just about everything I need only a couple miles away.

2. October is a good time to do some early Christmas shopping and beat the rush.

3. If I saw the ghost of Conway, I would pass out.

4. You couldn't pay me to wear a sexy costume.
