Happy Mother's Day

It's Mother's Day here in the US, the day where we give thanks to the Mothers we love. I of course gave the most thoughtful gift, myself. I allowed Mom to loll about in the bed till almost seven am (naturally she'd already gotten up to feed me at five am - it's a special day, but I gotta have a full tank).

I then graced her with a leisurely lap snuggle, with paw holding. When I got up, and she wasn't looking, I took a few licks out of her water cup, gotta keep her healthy and she gets squeamish about the healing powers of cat spit. Odd, I know.

I played killer kitty with my swing toy. Mom loves that. Then we went out on the porch to check the crop (mini squashes and tomatoes are growing already!).

And then we saw it.

Someone seems to have left a dead, yet un-mauled birdy on My Porch... It wasn't my doing. Seems like somecat was trying to outshine my gifts. Luckily Mom is a pacifist.

Happy Mother's Day!
