Here’s a real Caturday flashback for you — all the way back to November 2008! That’s even before my mother was born! But I thought you’d enjoy seeing Binga, Boodie, and Sparkle, especially since these are sort of quirky photos. Above is Binga, who had a longtime romance with my human’s MacBook Pros. Every winter, she decided they made a good cat bed. At some point after I came here, she stopped doing this. I don’t know why.
This was the first year my human went to the Cat Writers Conference, and when she brought home a suitcase full of cat swag, there was excitement all around! Boodie has always been the quiet cat who mostly hangs in the background, but even she was entranced by everything.
Among the treats and toys was something called a Pawbreaker, which was basically a solid ball of catnip! My human didn’t even open the package before Boodie had taken it over.
Sparkle, meanwhile, had commandeered a guitar case. When my human’s ex was living here, there was always an open guitar case lying around — and a cat to lie around inside it.
This is actually one of my human’s favorite photos of Sparkle. The meerkat mojo was strong with her!
I hope you enjoyed this flashback!


I absolutely did! Very much. Miss those girls. All three of them! Vrey very nice seeing them today!
Great memories 🙂
Thanks for sharing this flashback!!

I really enjoyed this flashback and the very cute pics, thank you so much for posting it.
Thiw was so cute. Thank you for sharing it. Since I only recently started following your blog, it introduces me to the kitties arouund you and even before you, Summer.
Boodie must be a nipaholic.
We love seeing flashbacks, especially since we didn’t know Sparkle. Boodie looks so cute! (I think we caught up on commenting!)
Very sweet Summer
We loved that flashback of the gang! Wonderful!
Oh this was awesome! I really do hope MK and I will see more of Boodie soon.
And Binga looks like she has a very fluffy tail in that pic.
Purrz!!

I luv all those photos! Like Binga, I too enjoy lounging on a “Mac Book.” Dad doesn’t like it when I do that, ’cause he’s afraid I’ll mess up the computer. He doesn’t realize that I am optimizing it for best purrformance. Tee hee hee. Winks.
Great flashback photos ! Purrs
Thanks for this great flashback! Great to see everyone 🙂
Wow!! I didn’t realize how much of a Pretty Cat Binga was!!
Binga and Boodie are Pretty Cats!!
We love this flashback, Summer. It was so nice to see Sparkle and Binga, and Boodie having such fun with that Pawbreaker!
Gorgeous pic of Binga! Great to see Boodie and lovely Sparkle again too. I have some shmouse-shaped Pawbreakers and I don’t look at them. I wonder if Aunt Pauline was at that CWA too. She has a couple of Muse medallions. She wants to sponsor TW who sez she doesn’t pay to play. Besides it would be more disappointment that she wouldn’t win anything.
It was SO nice to see those old pictures…
Great flashbacks ! Thanks for sharing !
Great photos and so nice to see all your family in them
Awww, so good to see Sparkle and Binga again, and always Boodie!
Such lovely and cute photos. Any open case is fair game to felines. And Boodie sure made us laugh. She’s a sassy playful girl at heart while Queen Binga commandeers the social media following. Sparkle definitely ruled the house. Love em all! Purrs
Those are wonderful memories – thanks for sharing them with us.
Good bunch of pictures – enjoyed those.
What wonderful memories …Sparkle sitting on her tushie watching TV was funny

That was a great flashback. I love the photo of Binga on the laptop. 🙂
This is a lovely flashback. It was fun seeing Boodie rolling around with the nip ball.
Those were really fun, we enjoyed them all.
Great flash back photos!!
I am lucky that none of the Eastside Cats try to use my laptop as a beddy!
What a great post of those three. It was especially fun to see Sparkle again.
These pics are very special….
This sure was a wonderful flashback with Binga, Boodie and Sparkle, but I gotta say- as always I’m pretty partial to Binga!
Oh these are lovely! Boodie is a real giggle with the catnip!!!
Thank you for a treat!!
