Gift Wrapping Time

December 7, 2020 By: Summer Samba27 Comments

It's gift wrapping time, and Summer is here to help!

My human had some presents to wrap over the weekend, and of course I helped her!

Some of what we had to wrap was my Secret Paws gifts! Since we are sending these to a fellow cat blogger who might see my blog posts, I can’t show them to you. But trust me, they are in this box!

What I can show you is the gift my human got for the guy we had Thanksgiving dinner with. Well, I can’t show you what it is, in case he happens on this post. But I can show us wrapping it.

My human needed serious help wrapping this! She is terrible at wrapping gifts, and they always look sad and messy. But last year (when she gave him a copy of Binga’s calendar), he thought she did a fabulous wrapping job! So now she has to live up to that.

Wrapping this present was a lot of work for both of us!

And here’s the finished present! It does not look bad at all!

We are done for now! I don’t know if we’ll have more gifts to wrap later or not. But I’m going to play in the box that still has the Secret Paws gifts in it. I’d better not tear the wrapping paper!

    That looked like so much fun. My Princess wants to be involved in EVERYTHING I do. It can be trying, but she’s my family so we work together. I was filling gift bags for the families I take care of. Dog and cat treats and a fancy candy. Ferrero Rocher. I looked over and Princess had her head in a finished bag

    Some lucky kitty(ies) gets you as their Secret Paw this holiday.

    My mom has always enjoyed wrapping gifts and is good at it. When she was younger all the members of her family would recruit her to wrap for them. Mom thinks it would be fun to run a gift-wrapping service. I of course supervise Mom’s wrapping efforts these days.

    Someone’s getting an extra special Secret Paws’ gift. You *did* show a pic of yourself in the box with “But trust me, they are in this box!” written below it. We haven’t even started shopping for Secret Paws.

    We helped Dad wrap this year but did not bug him as much as past years. Well Buddy Budd is not with us and he was the wrapping snoopervisor. Great work Summer and Mom. We hope you have one of those little puters at your post office. Dad sent our Secret Paws on Sunday and no lines or anything. Purrs

    Whatever the present is, I think you ordered it because you wanted that box. Looks like a great box… maybe purrfect for you and a BFF?

    Our huMom learned years ago that book and LPs (remember those?) were the easiest to wrap.

    You’re such a great helper Summer! Our human makes a mess of things when she tries to wrap presents so she prefers bags instead. We help her by adding our furs to her bags, mol!

    It’s a good thing you are there to help. How else would
    anything ever get done without you? Oh, the box game
    is one of my favorites! Hide and seek and chase the kitty
    are also good games.

    Summer, you are such a good helper to your human wrapping gifts. My kitties would rather play than wrap the gifts. Good Summer.

    MY mom said many many times she wishes she could use a brown paper bag to give gifts in. She is beyond terrible at wrapping.
