Scooby’s new raccoon

Scooby is enjoying a new cat toy to play with. There are so many cat toys about, that I do not recall where this came from, or when; but, it has shown up and Scooby likes it a lot. He is fickle, and will tire of it easily. Then he will move on to something else.  Ellen from 15andmeowing sent us the fish pillow as a present along with some other things.  We like it very much and appreciate it.

Reflections 9

Well, another Thanksgiving is gone. Some people had great Thanksgiving, others average, and some terrible. Looking back, most of the average ones were actually great, but I just did not recognize it at the time. I have had them all at one time or another. Now we are steaming full speed ahead towards Christmas. It seems like Christmas will never come, and then all of a sudden it comes racing towards us, and no matter what we do, we cannot slow it down. Today I feel more like an extra on “The Walking Dead”, so I shall just post another “Reflections” post which I put together months ago, and was waiting for a good time to post it. My eyesight took a temporary turn for the worse, and I can just barely see what I am doing. Reflections is my series of unposted older cat photographs. They may have been posted and never viewed or from my deleted Blogger blog. They are pre-Scooby.

1917 Thanksgiving postcard

Happy Thanksgiving!

Once more I will dive into my father’s postcard collection. He kept many of them when he was a child, which I found after he died carefully stored away in a box. Most of them are Valentines–some of which I previously posted. Today for Thanksgiving I have only one “new” one to post. It was copyrighted in 1917 but sent in 1922.

Zeke warns: Don’t eat too much Turkey on Thanksgiving!

Like every Thanksgiving, the cats will be prowling about underfoot when they smell the turkey roasting. Fear not that they will each have some!
