Waffles Wednesday: Giving Thanks

Hi everybuddy, Waffles here.

The Boss says we're going to eat some yummy turkey this week. She says it's on account of the holiday where everyone eats a lot of food and then takes a nap. She also told me I should think of something really nice to do for the other cats who don't have the kinds of special things we do. You know, like yummy treats, nice toys and forever homes.

So I got to thinking. What can a little orange cat like me do to make a difference? And then something really special happened.


The man in brown shorts came to our front door with 4 gigantic boxes. They're so heavy, even Glogirly can hardly move them. What's in them? Well, remember last week when we heard the news that we had won 10,000 meals from Freekibble and Halo Pets for our kitty friends at Feline Rescue, Inc? Well, what we DIDN'T know is that we also won $1,000 in treats, food, and other cool stuff from Halo for ourselves. It's more that we could EVER use, so I asked the Boss and Glogirly if we could give it to the shelter kitties and they thought that was a great idea.

Glogirly said that we can each pick out one treat and then we'll donate everything else. There's even some shampoo! ...the Boss was very quick to point out that we should donate ALL the shampoo.

So the day after Thanksgiving, instead of standing in lines at the shopping mall, Glogirly's going to make a special visit to Feline Rescue. When kitties are waiting to find their forever homes, some nice treats and food ought to at least make their tummies happy.

Happy Giving Thanks Week everybuddy!

love,
Waffles

    Very selfless of you, and Katie & GloGirly! However... you know those mental flashes I get whenever I read your posts? This one's a doozy..

    Waffles, wearing a smock, in a salon, giving Katie a shampoo then styling her fur to look like a turkey.
