Christmas in July!



We got a package in the mail for us over the weekend from Angel, Kirby and Mac. We joined in with the Christmas in July fun this year and they were partnered with us. What a cute Christmas card from them and all the goodies were wrapped in red and green paper!



Ivy inspected the box while Mom opened it up for us. Look -- we got cute kitty magnets and Hello Kitty band-aids for the beans.



There was lots of treats - all our favorite - Temptations ...in all our best flavors. Sweetpea called first dibs on those.



Joey got so excited he just got in the box and wanted all of the rest for himself! Mom made him get out so we could open more gifts.



Sweetpea is checking out the furry mouse. Doesn't that look fun? Minnie liked the paper better than all the stuff and was rolling around in it. She found the catnip toy - no wonder the paper smelled so good to her!





Since we have two groups of kitties, Mom closed up the rest of the box and took it out to the white cats to have fun with. Two Spot and Only jumped right in the box and began to check it all out. More treats and even some catnip which Mom let us have after we got done.





Wow we got a Kong kicking toy - that will be fun to practise our bunny kicks on. More catnip toys and a bunch of mousies! Smidge joined in on the unwrapping. The rest of the gang was too sleepy to come down and have fun!



Lily joined in and grabbed the catnip toys. We got a kitty cube too. They even sent some bath stuff for Mom -wasn't that nice of them?





We had a great time opening it all and will enjoy playing with all the great toys. The treats will keep us going for a long time! Mom likes the bath stuff - don't know why beans like to get wet!
We hope Angel, Kirby and Mac enjoy their stuff - we are new at this Christmas in July thing. We thank them and their Mom for all the hard work and thoughtfulness put into our box!

Hope you all have a great time watching this. Thinking about Christmas now...maybe this will bring us some cooler temps - it is still HOT HERE!!!!!
For more kitties today visit Gattina for Cats on Tuesday!

Hi Wildcat cuties...we are glad to hear Mom is feeling better. I expect it has been as hot in Asheville as in Raleigh. Miserable.

What wonderful gifts and to just imagine that it is Christmas makes me and Mom cooler.

Happy Monday,
Madi and Mom

Wow what a great Christmas in July package! We didn't play this year but we think maybe we will need to join in next time! It looks like you got so many fun presents and treats, and it was super sweet that they even included some stuff for the beans!

That is a lot of toys. What a great thing the Christmas in July event is. Looks like there is a little something for everyone. I bet there is going to be a good time around there. I am going to keep on putting some kitties on my blog from Watauga, since they have such good descriptions and pictures. Let me know if there is anyone special that I can do. I just want to bring them all home. Have a great day.
