Here’s a Caturday Flashback that focuses on scenes from my very first holiday season. As you can see, it was a California holiday, meaning no snow and not terribly cold. Which was a good thing because I was a busy kitty!
I was still competing in shows back then. In fact, I had just graduated from kitten to adult class the month before!
I also did something that year that hasn’t been done since. I had a drive for blogging kitties to donate cat toys to their local rescues. It was called the Santa Kitty Toy Hop, and it was very fun! The rescue we chose was Kitten Rescue.
My human brought the bag of toys to the cats at the main house and they all had a great time.
I also did some modeling. This photo wound up on a card in my Zazzle shop.
Of course Binga horned in on my photo shoots.
And look what I found! A lot of people have been commenting on this dress since I took it to last weekend’s cat show… and here I am wearing it eight years ago! I had no idea I’ve had it for this long.
I hope you enjoyed my holiday trip down memory lane!

Great flashback. I love the one of you and Binga. If you decide to have a drive again, I will donate. XO
It sure is fun to look back sometimes. I bet you miss Binga.
Nice. You do look quite young here. I seem to notice you
don’t yet have the dark fur accents in these pictures that
you now have. Even so, you looked quite confident in what
you were doing.
That is a lovely flashback. Nice to see Binga again even if she did have a whappy paw.
My goodness, I know you were always a gorgeous girl, but I love your “baby” pictures! Doesn’t seem like you’ve grown very big but you have grown great with style, beauty and fans! Me included! 🙂
