My Secret Paws gifts arrived over the weekend, and I was quite excited! In case you don’t know what this is, the cat blogging community does a “Secret Santa” sort of gift exchange every year, only it’s called Secret Paws. We have different partners each year, both for giving and receiving.
This year, I got a package from the critters from Broken Teepee — kitties Sherpa and Harry, bunny Cappuccino, a variety of ducks and chickens, plus the human in charge of the blog! They all live on a farm in Montana.
Look at all the presents here! It’s pretty awesome, especially considering that my human and I agreed not to give each other gifts this year.
Right on top was this awesome catnip fish. I gave it a bunch of licks before my human handed it over to Boodie. Mainly because I know she’ll drool all over it. I mean Boodie, not my human.
There were more toys too — appropriately, a bunny, a chick and a duck! The bunny bears quite a resemblance to Cappuccino. Plus a tube of primo catnip.
And look who showed up… just in time to check out the treats! We got two huge bags of freeze dried chicken! Like, really huge! And yes, we got some right away.
My human got a bar of goat’s milk soap. They used to have goats on the farm, and they still have some of their awesome soap.
She also got this book, Mr. Waffles Loves Design, featuring one of the cats I follow on Instagram.
Thank you to everyone at Broken Teepee for these fun gifts! My human was also excited about the box because she needed one exactly this size so we could send our Secret Paws gifts to our recipient! This saves her a trip to the post office.

Those are all lovely gifts, and those treats sound very tasty too.
Whoa! You guys scored getting your gifts from the farm! TW loves her soaps and was just wondering if her shop was still open. We finally mailed our package yesterday. I think TW went cheap this year but hope the kitty/kitties like them.
What a lovely box! The Broken Teepee tribe are such nice folks & creatures!
Cool gifts and the drool joke made us giggle!!!!
Wow, lots of great gifts! So glad you got to lick the catnip fishy before it went to Boodie. Hope you, Boodie and your human have a wonderful holiday.
That is a really nice set of gifts you received. Boodie
certainly knows when to show up. Obviously, she is tuned
in to what’s happening. How exciting.
I loved seeing your gifts and seeing Boodie!
Awesome package! Glad to have that rare “Boodie Sighting”!
Enjoy!

That looks like a great Santa Paws gift pack. We used to do it years ago and then we had a really bad experience and stopped. Maybe we should start again next year.
