p.s. We’ll share the gifts that came in that paper tomorrow on Thankful Thursday.
PAPER: THE MOST PAWSOME GIFT EVER
Social Media
ONE OF A KIND
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.

My Secret Paw actually included a package of designer colored tissue paper!!
Tissue paper is a gift in itself.
I totally agree with that!
Oh that wonderful paper! Looks like you are enjoying it 🙂 Mom put ours in one of our boxes in the sunroom!
Luvs to you all!
Marty and the Gang
We agree…paper is right up there with boxes!
Have a wonderful and happy New Year…
Noodle and crew
According to CInco and Manna, the paper and boxes are the best part of getting gifts! You two look like you are having a great time. I hope that the gift inside was every bit as much fun!
Gorgeous rustly and soft paper there. What a fun Christmas.
*whispering* Don’t tell anybuddy, but sometimes we wish they would forget the presents and just give us paper. It really is a fun toy. 🙂
Wait. You got paper AND presents?! PAWSOME!
Paper is the first present ! Purrs
and not just for cats – I am sure our children, when they were little, got as much fun out of the wrapping as the presents… Happy New Purr to you all
There’s just something pawesome about crinkly tissue paper! And boxes. Tissue paper and boxes are prized possessions at our house. Purrs!
BobbieSue has been playing with the same Christmas wrapping paper since Christmas night! It was 1 big piece of paper, now its 3 smaller pieces, but she still loves it!!!
I LOVE not only paper, but ribbons, too!!!
and Cole will eat that paper when you’re done playing with it
Chloe & George would agree. They love paper. Chloe Jo likes to “taste” it. George loves to run amok in it! XO. We are wishing you a wonderful, healing, blessed New Year. We love you dearly.
That looks like super posh paper!! We are still purring for Fiona ❤️❤️❤️
Paper is the best ever present. xox
Sometimes the paper is just as much as the gifts! Happy 2016!
Oooo, paper is the bestest!
You both look very happy with the tissue paper.
Those are wonderfully happy photos!
Paper is a WONDERFULLY fun thing! Doesn’t matter what kind either – it’s ALL good! Bags, tissue, wrapping, it all makes noise, it’s all fun to whap and bunny-kick……it’s also CHEAP and Mom says she likes that part best!
Hugs, Sammy
Oh that looks like such great fun, all that wonderful tissue paper. You all have a great day.
The paper is almost as good as the box. 🙂
We agree there’s nothing like the sound of crunkled paper.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
The suspense! I can’t wait!
We luv playin wif paper too!
Paper has that universal temptation doesn’t it?? We love it too, so rustly and intriguing, we sometimes think there is a critter like a mousie in it,MOL! Even our dog-guy likes paper, he shreds it, OMC!
