And A Good Time Was Had By Al(-most) Everyone

This past weekend started with a celebration that Alfie has been part of our family for a year! That meant cake for us, and treats and toys for the kitties. Alfie and Pip had a good time together figuring things out, whilst the Koodle was there, but out of the frame, due to being in trouble because he had tried to eat all of the treats and steal all of the toys. (There's always someone, right?)

In any case, the other two found it all quite hilarious.


Alfie LOVES those wavy cardboard scratch pads, and he got a new one because he goes through them really quickly. He is declawed in the front, but nonetheless makes quick work of them. He also finds them comfortable as a home base of sorts, to lounge on and observe all around him. (He's still such a lovable weirdo!)


Pip and Alfie are more than happy to share the toys and treats, so they both had a lot of fun seeing what was what, and leaping around, since some of the toys contained catnip.

Alfie is such an unusual kitty. He is affectionate, but really also just does his own thing. He is always happy to see you in the morning, and/or when you come home from being gone somewhere, but he's just kind of goofily himself, and quite pleased about it. We are glad to have our very own Fluffernutter as part of our family, and can't wait to see how he does as he figures out more things around him and around the house and garden.

We had a lovely weekend, and I'll share some of our photos from our day in Annapolis soon. Other than Friday, which was too hot to be enjoyable at all, we had lovely weather, which has continued into this week. I know it won't last forever, but I'll happily take it as long as it wants to hang around!

Sounds and looks like your summer is off to a greaet start what with a cat party, a trip to the beach and another trip to Annapolis! Well done.

What a sweet kitty! How lucky he is to have found such a great furever home.

What a wonderful celebration for Alfie!

There's an alpaca at the farm where I board mine that I call Fluffernutter. It seems to be a multi-species-appropriate name.

If only all of us would be allowed to be goofily ourselves, huh?

Declawed ?! Why is that ?
My cats also love the wave scratchboard. Once I tried a different model, same brand, and they just took a look and walked away....

I love hearing about your kitties -- and I especially love hearing about Alfie and how he's fitting into your family. I can hardly believe it's already been a year of happy-living for Alfie, and it makes my heart sing. Love to all of you! XO
