Notes from the Mom: Cooper Murphy and Astrid were supervised during play, as handles remained on bag. By the following afternoon, they had completely destroyed the bag.

I don’t know how to say good-bye.
I thought you were invincible; though,
You used up many of your nine lives.
You ruled us all with an iron paw;
Never took “no” for an answer
And always got your way.
If not, you’d bark to signal your
Displeasure and sometimes raise a paw.
I always joked that you were bi-polar.
When I told people you were a calico
They immediately understood what I meant.
Today was unnaturally quiet in the house.
Can a home seem empty with eight cats?
I will miss waking up at night to find you
Sitting next to me and staring at me.
I will miss you yelling at us as you did
When you wanted breakfast and dinner.
I will miss watching you lounging and snoozing
On the porch settee on a warm afternoon.
But most of all I will miss your kisses!
When kitten Sawyer befriended you,
We suspect you were imparting your
Wisdom and secrets for controlling us.
Time will tell if he was a good listener.
But whatever he may have learned,
Neither Sawyer nor any other cat
Can or will replace you in our hearts.
Lily Olivia, you were one-of-a-kind.

Paper bags are almost as fun as boxes!
Paper bags are fun.
It’s true! Bags are pretty much just as fun as spaceships!
Cute playmates !
Bags are almost as much fun as spaceships. 🙂
Cooper & Astrid, do those handles light up in flashing neon colors when the spaceship takes off a lands?! Do they help steer the ship, too, away from the likes of those purple- haired alien gealieblips? Hugs!
glad you mentioned the handles 😉
Astrid, your face speaks volumes! 🙂 Glad Cooper Murphy enjoyed the bag!
Paperbags are so much fun ! Purrs
So cute!!!
Those photos of bag fun are adorable!
What lovely new toys! Bags are the best! 😀
Yep, handles are removed around here too, if we can get to them before the cats do! One incident of a cat tearing around the house with a bag caught on a tail was enough for us. Cooper Murphy and Astrid are adorable kitties!
Looks like a lot of fun, guys! Our cats enjoy bags too. 🙂
There’s nothing like a paper bag to make you have fun girls.
Angel Sammy loved bags when he was little…….Mom is disappointed that I seem to have no interest in them but maybe she’s just not giving me the RIGHT bags???? I’ll have to work on that! You two look like you are READY to have some fun though!
Hugs, Teddy
We luv playin in bags too!
My human usually cuts the handles of bags we play with so she doesn’t have to keep an eye on us. Lazy of her? Possibly!
Bags provide a ton of endless rustling fun! Minko was always the first one to jump right in!!
Pipo is a wee bit more reserved.MOL!
