Friday Smiles 101: Squiggles and his Christmas gifts

It's been awhile since I've felt well enough to participate in Friday Smiles at Annie's A Stitch in Time.  Some of you are aware that in October, I got a new kitten, who will hopefully be tutored by Bleubeard, who will train him to eventually be the face of our blog.

Here is the spoiled new fellow at five months

showing off about a week or two before Christmas.  Yes, he's grown since you last saw him.

Although both Squiggles and Bleubeard got new collars for Christmas, what else do you get a cat who has all the cat toys in the world, a loving forever home, and two new collars (since I anticipate this latest one to only last a few more months)?

You (and your friend Sally) go to the carpet store

and get two new scratching rugs for Squiggles to sink his claws into.


Then you go to Sam's Warehouse and get something for both boys to dig into.

I hope this put a smile on your face.  For more smiles and possibly a few belly laughs, hop on over to Annie's at A Stitch in Time.  It's a great way to start the weekend.

Annie said...

Hi Elizabeth....welcome back. I've missed you. Squiggles really is a handsome puss but of course I wouldn't want to offend Bleubeard and must say of course no one outshines him :-) They are both very lucky cats to have you caring so well for them.
Biggest hugs for you all,
Annie x

Squiggles has certainly grown. He looks like he could be Bleubeard 's son. :) Hugs to Bleubeard from the Girls. They're looking at squiggles from a safe distance heads cocked...hhmm a strange kitty over there. :) Glad to hear you're feeling better. Warm hugs for you from me.

Squiggles and Bluebeard are two very lucky cats! Spoiled?....maybe. But I just prefer the term "Well loved", cause that is what my dog is...LOL

Thanks for the smiles this morning.

I know Bleubeard will do a great job with his new mentoring responsibilities, and Squiggles looks like a quick study.

Are you sure they are not related by blood because it looks like a younger version of Bluebeard. He sure has grown and what well needed gifts.

Thanks for sharing him he is adorable give both the boys a tickle from me.

Monica said...

he looks a true sweetie. With all the toys my cats have their favorite is the plastic torn off the cover of a milk bottle. next is messing with the computer and bird watching. other than that they race through the house.

Hope Bluebeard is feeling up to the new comer and doing well.
To make a comment I have to do the robot thing so if I fail I do not post a second time.

We once had a cat that would scratch on a mat but loved going to the back of the sofa for a bit of variety!!! Squiggles looks very handsome but I'm sure Bleubeard is giving him some sideways stares as his eyes look full of mischief!! Hugs to you and tickles under the chin for the two 'lads' Chrisx

Two very spoiled puss-cats. Squiggles is beautiful and looks full of mischief.
Thanks for visiting my lengthy blog. I might add that I wear sandals for twelve months of the year unless I have to look really smart, and I very rarely have cold feet! But it is obviously a lot colder where you are, so wrap up warm and stay safe. Kate x

Squiggles is quite cute, but I hope Bleubeard sticks around for a long while yet!
