To be honest, I don’t think anyone in the house was in a Christmas-y mood this year. Not even us cats. When my human brought out the presents, we checked them out, but not with all that much enthusiasm.
At least my Secret Paws package arrived on Christmas Eve from The Meezers!
Boodie was excited because there was meezer smell all over the humungous pile of cat toys they sent us!
She immediately took charge of the Nip Nanna they included!
I was excited because they included Looney Loops, which are some of my favorite toys! And I don’t know where my old ones disappeared to.
They also enclosed a card.
They are sending me some treats too! That is very nice of them, because I know they are very preoccupied right now — their human just had a biopsy a few days ago.
Our Secret Paws gifts were pretty much the high point of the day for me. Binga liked the Kong Toy that was meant to be a stocking stuffer… except we didn’t get stockings this year. In fact, she didn’t even wait for my human to remove it from the packaging.
I was thrilled that we got a Turbo Track!
Except that Boodie wouldn’t stop playing with it! I was sort of annoyed by that.
And then my human pulled out her “special gift” — the one she’s been talking about for weeks.
She even bragged that she made sure she had batteries in advance.
Well, the thing did work… for about two seconds. Instead of talking about it, why don’t I just show you? In fact, this video has contains the lowlights (as opposed to the highlights) of our Christmas day. I hope yours was better!
See all of Summer’s merch at her Designercat Shop, available on Zazzle.
Meh. We didn’t have a lot of Christmas spirit this year either. 🙁
That flying saucer thing looked like fun. We got a butterfly ball from our Uncle but no batteries so maybe tomorrow we can try it. We’re sorry that your Christmas was a Dud, ours kinda was too. We kept asking for tuna casselrole but the biped made some sort of roast beast.

It sucked at our house cuz my gramma made evrybuddy mizzerbul like she duz evry yeer, and then the Food Lady wispers to Mr TF, “Why is she such a bich?” and well, yoo git the pikcher.
Sammy and Miles were praktikly my vary ferst frends on the innernets win I wuz just a kittin. Yoo can cownt on them to pik owt good krissmiss prezints!
Oh Sparkle, that is too bad your Christmas was a dud. Glad you got your Secret Santa stuff. At least you got some treats. Lots of people don’t get into Christmas. I think it is a very hard time of year. Take care and have a good Sunday.
Hahahahaha! Sparkle, I loved your Christmas movie! Sorry your holiday was a bit of a dud. Oh, I wanted to tell you that my Mommeh was reading the most recent issue of Cat Fancy magazine and your book was featured!
We saw that a couple of days ago too! It’s very exciting!
All I can say is I hope the New Year is better for you than Christmas.
pawhugs, Max
Sparkle, we liked the movie, the look you and Binga give each other towards the end says it all.
Our Christmas was blah too. Both of our humans are sick with sore throats and colds. The whole house smells like Vicks Vaporub. It poured rain all day. Looking forward to the New Year.
Haha! Sparkel, your face at the end of the video sort of sums it all up!! But all toys you got from the Meezers were pretty good!
We are enjoying the Meezers’ gifts lots!
Oops…we shoulda asked for a new typist for Christmas, SparKLE!!
It sure seems as if your Secret Paws package was the best part. Your face at the end is priceless. But the Turbo Toy does look like it has some potential.
Sparkle you shoulda been here! We had a blast…uh well, at least Grete woofie was totally in the Christmas spirit because she LOVED her toys. She got a squeaky snake and she won’t stop squeaking it…and then she laughs…and then she tosses it…and then squeaka squeaka. Party central.
Do you have some kitty aspirin you can send me?
No kitty aspirin, but I have some Pit’r Pat treats. They make everything seem better.
Ah, my first giggle of the day..Thanks I needed that!
You’re welcome!
A turbo track!!! Pawsome!
Merry Christmas from our house to yours!
XOXO
The Creek Cats and Maggie May
you soooo had me laughing out loud with this one!! OMC!!
BTW your babies are GORGEOUS!! I would love to hug them!
That turbo is perfect for a multiple cat household…Cody just has one because he is an “only” cat….
Loved all the toys the Meezers got you!
That looked like a Modern Cat scratcher in the background…I have to check that out.
Thanks for the fabulous post, you really made my day…also….I hope your friend that had the biopsy will be ok (((((hugs))))))))
Oh Miss Sparkle, we’re sorry your Christmas was a dud. Our mom is never in the Christmas spirit, really. She travels to see her mom and brother each year when weather permits, but around here, you would never know it was Christmas – no decorations, no presents, nothing! She says the no presents is our fault, because Zoe steals any gifts that would be presents before they can be put away or wrapped. And she also says something about us getting presents year round, blah blah. Whatev. At least the Meezers did ya’ll up right~!!
We think you had a great Christmas but I guess you had to be there…
Trust me, you should be glad you weren’t here!
Oh Sparkle! That looks like a great Christmas. I got a special dish of Fancy Feast, fuzzy mice, and a new scratching post. I love my new book!
Love,
Blizzard
I’m so glad you are enjoying the book! I hope you saw my advice column for this month! I actually learned a few things when I wrote it!
Sparkle, it was the same here. If we hadn’t gotten our package from Spitty, we would have hit a new nadir in excitement. The most fun we had was watching Maui whizz on the counter.
We noticed that you finally got to use the turbo track in the video!! We’re MOL at how the two of you are ignoring the music box!!

We are sorry that your Christmas was a dud Sparkle. The package you got from the Meezers looked great though.
The Meezers’ toys ARE great! I was just playing with one of the toys from the stocking a few minutes ago.
We enjoyed your Christmas movie Sparkle! It’s fun seeing the three of you in action, well, maybe just sitting there since your Christmas was such a dud. It must be a Tortie trait to eat things because that happens here too. At least the Meezers saved your Christmas!
Sparkle, you definitely were not amused! Hopefully, your day was better today!
Pee ess – I don’t think I would have liked that flying saucer toy because I don’t like things that make noise!
Face of you two at the end of video is priceless : )
and I like the idea, some toy should be eaten if it doesn’t work !

The Meezers give the best Secret Paw gifts! Our Georgia loved hers until the day she died! We are always purring for the Meezer Mom because she is the bestest.
You don’t thank this was your bestest Christmas ever – with all that loot! You made a killing.
I’m sorry you had such a duddy Christmas Sparkle, maybe you need to write yourself for some advice!
Sparkle! You have a nice home, lots of toys and a human that loves you.
I think you are acting a little bit spoiled.
Someone needs to have their nip taken away….
You look rather bored with all the mess humans make about Christmas ! I don’t know if it is a worldwide feeling, but I wasn’t in Christmas mood either this year even with the new (and first) grandson ! and my cats celebrated amongst themselves with a neighbor kitty sitter !
LOL. It’s hard to be mad at Boodie. She’s so cute.
Oh WOW! A turbo track! I think one of those should come with our new brofur. . . . . .
We were more excited about snuggling on Christmas, than in toys, so I guess we were kinda like you.
But that turbo track………….
So that turbo track is awesome–ours is just a circle and we love it. Here’s a tip that we love. The original plastic ball got lost…so it’s been replaced with a golf ball and woohoo does that puppy turbo!! Just a thought! Happy new year!! We just got our new Sparkle calendar–the best Christmas present because it just goes to show–cats rule!
