Wildly Loved

Thanks again for all of the birthday wishes.

Received ecards, texts, and messages!

And a few postal cards.

A selection of goodies arrived:

Cats in sweaters scarf in the background

Cat toys (not for me, for the cats!), one being a slice of watermelon

Book marks: Pusheen and a handmade wooden one that reads: This is where you fell asleep

Kitty sticky notes

Not pictured: cat note pads and games

As I can no longer count all of the years on my fingers and toes, it's lovely to have friends and family wishing me felicitations on my natal day, no matter what that number is.

Purchased a gift for myself too: a desktop printer.

Aren't I wild and eccentric?

Toys for Cats and Cat People

Good things delivered to Eastside Cats!

The Tooth Fairy sent toys to Chili Bruce, after he lost two teeth last month.

❤️ Thank you, Ellen @ 15AndMeowing ❤️

And a belated birthday gift from my co-workers:

An Eastside Cats outdoor post, with solar lamp on top!

Each side painted specifically for us:

Henry's Side

Our Celestial Cats' Side

Manny's Side

CB's Side

Isn't this MARVELOUS!?!?!

Where it will go in the yard has yet to be determined, but I adore it beyond belief.

❤️ Thanks to my team; you know who you are. ❤️

Contact info for the artist will be in comments.

Am so very thankful for surprise b'day gifts.

A paper cat, with accessories like this birthday hat or sunglasses.

Lovely cat earrings.

A cat scarf and cat toys.
Y'all know where these came from...15andMeowing.com

My boss crocheted these three kitties for me:
Manny, Henry, and CB

See their cute tailios?

Manny has his underwear spot on his belly!

Thankful Thursday: Gifts

Received a terrific gift in the mail, from my friend Erica!  A cat card, cat earrings, and a photo of her two ginger boys, Eric and Sparky.

So cute!

Hmm...like Manny and Chili Bruce,
sometimes it's hard to tell which is Eric or Sparky!

As if cats would ever use a roadmap...

Erick and Sparky are now a part of the Cat Gallery at the office!

Thank you, my friend, for your thoughtful gifts!

And now...let's HOP!

I am very fortunate to have friends and family who showered me with birthday gifts last month!  And this doesn't include the excellent meals, trips to movies and shopping, and many other adventures that happened before, during and after my vacation.  Thank you all!  ☺👌😺💖

Picture 5 is a piece of cloth covered in photos of lions, tigers, birds and foxes, from Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, Florida, that go along with the tiger-striped socks.  Don't know what it's for?  It's for wiping one's eyeglasses!  Yeah, I had to be told too.  Thank you, BG!
