My Gotcha Day Recap

Meows from Mudpie!

I had the best Gotcha Day on Sunday. Mommy really knocked it out of the park with the prezzies. 

First, she got me a rotisserie chicken! (I let her have some too.) Sometimes I wonder which I love more - squeezies or rotisserie chicken. I think I'll have to eat lots more of each before I make my final decision.  

And we've been seeing those scratcher beds on other cat blogs but Mommy never got me one because she didn't think I'd use it. Then she saw one with ghost cats and had to have it. 

And...I love it! I immediately started using it. Then just 48 hours later "some kitty" hopped in with a bit of poopy butt. Mommy immediately dabbed it up with a wet paper towel and told me I have it be careful because it can't go in the washing machine like my blankies. That's not my problem, Mommy! 

To top it all off on Sunday evening Mommy found out she won two more Certificates of Excellence from the Cat Writers Association (more on that later!) 

All in all it was a purrfect day. Unlike today when I'm going back to the vet for another ear check. Send purrs.

  2. Mudpie we are so very glad you got such good stuff. Always great to have presents for a celebration. Precious tried a cardboard scratcher for about 10 seconds. Glad you like yours and yes you do have to keep it clean otherwise it'll melt in the washing machine. We want to hear all about Mommy awards for being a great writer. And where can I look for her books.
