Thankful Thursday ~ The Kitty Cupboard

Meows from Mudpie!

Even though Mommy is perpetually trying to declutter our house, she has also become rather addicted to our local Buy Nothing group on Facebook. I can't really complain though because that's how I scored my pawsome cat tree

Sunday morning Mommy sat down with her coffee and logged onto Facebook. She noticed a post showing a bunch of stuff piled on someone's lawn and her eyes were immediately drawn to the white cube organizer. She decided to hop in the car to see if it was still there. It was, and she also fell in love with the wooden storage chest in the picture so she ended up loading two pieces of furniture into the car with no idea what she was going to do with them! (We always need more storage so she wasn't worried about not having a use for them, and both items were in absolutely perfect condition.)

After some thought Mommy decided the wooden cabinet would best be used in our small kitchen. That required quite a bit of moving things around but it ended up fitting perfectly. 

Then came the big question - what to put in it? This is where things get really exciting because Mommy has decided to use it as a kitty cupboard to hold all my food, treats and supplies! We've never had enough storage space in the kitchen for cat food so its always just been left in stacks on the floor, so this has made things look much less cluttered. We just love how it turned out.

The cube organizer Mommy originally wanted doesn't have a home yet but she's thinking. It's actually still hanging out in the car! MOL 


Mommy is thankful for free furniture, and I'm thankful its being used for Mudpie stuff!

Mother's Day Gift Ideas for Cat Moms from Etsy

Meows from Mudpie!

Can you believe Mother's Day is less than 2 weeks away??? Now that my Grandma is gone it's no longer a holiday Mommy looks forward to, so she tries to put it out of her mind. I still want to treat her to something special though.

While browing Etsy for the purrfect gift for Mommy, I found several things that any cat mom would love to receive on her special day...









Which is your favorite? I think everything here would be a hit with Mommy, but she would probably love the small whisker vase the most. I'll need to figure out how many squeezies I would have to go without in order to pay for it.

I hope you enjoy my picks, and don't forget, if you find something here you like and make a purchase using our affiliate links, I get a little money for my piggy bank! I might even spend it on Mommy's gift!

Caturday Art


Visit more artsy kitties at Athena's Caturday Art blog hop!



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

1. Have you ever noticed how rude and inconsiderate people are? I've been spending more time at home lately than ever and when I'm out running errands people's behavior is bothering me even more than it used to. 

2. Would you choose life before or after the internet? I'm an old soul and prefer the way things "used to be" but I can't imagine going back to life before the internet. Homebodies like me are so thankful to be able to do nearly everything online!

3. Do you think it's possible to be friends with someone who doesn't love animals? I find it very difficult.

4. What recipes would you recommend for an air fryer? My new toaster oven has an air fryer setting and I haven't used it yet.

Claiming What's Mine #PetPhotoFails

Meows from Mudpie!

Thank you for joining us for this month's edition of the Pet Photo Fails blog hop!

The weather in my neck of the woods is just purrfect right now. It's warm and sunny during the daytime so I can do lots of sunbathing, and the evenings are still nice and chilly so Mommy and I can sneak in some cuddle time. Wish it could be like this year round! 


My blooper this month came when I was trying to snap a selfie. Looks like I hit the button before I was ready!


Mommy also wanted to me share this picture of her hand and arm to further explain my holding on post from Wednesday.  What can I say? I don't want her getting away. Little does she know this is my handwriting and it says, "Property of Mudpie!"


Those are my bloopers...let's see yours!
