Mrow! Cat-Solstice is upon us!
Cat-Solstice is a major feline holiday because it celebrates nighttime. Depending on where any furry cat guy or gal lives, their longest night may fall just before or after official Northern Hemisphere Cat-Solstice. Therefore, cats celebrate over multiple days by engaging in extra nighttime prowling, scampering, mischief and quiet nighttime contemplation - yes, that's us staring at you much of the night, we're still wondering when you'll grow fur.
Cat-Solstice here in the Northern Cat-Hemisphere is Monday the 21. Isn't that handy! That means you can start giving your cat extra love, extra kibble, and plenty of cat treats on Monday and right through your cool tree holiday (though we figure you made up your holiday so you could party with us).
Even when we scamper into the decorated tree branches, lick the top of the fresh baked pie crust, or hurl a hairball on a wrapped present, your peace on earth goodwill toward critters vibe will probably put you in the mood to handle it.
Alex took this picture last night...I usually don't ask her, but the folks were out listening to people sing, and we wanted to show you our Cat-Solstice tree!
For those of you who didn't know that Cat-Solstice was such a big deal, you still have time to run out and buy cool cat treats for us. Indeed, we'll roll right into the whole human New Year, accepting presents as you bring them to us.
Me I'm working on getting some major gifties for my cat pal Alex. What she really wants is for me to stop smelling her butt-hole but...she's not getting that.
Feeling like you can't give your feline friend enough love? Don't have a special kitty in your life right now, well, Cat-Solstice is for you too! Donate now to your local shelter or send a gift to my two favorite shelters: Sauk County Humane Society or North Country SPCA. They're both good places, with dedicated people serving the highest purpose: keep all cats healthy and safe. (Yes, they are nice to dogs budgerigars and other animals too.) Tell them Diesel sent you!
