It's the 4th of July and we thought it would be super fun to relive one of our July 4 blog posts from years ago...2016 to be exact. Katie and her sassy sarcasm was still with us and Waffles was his usual goofy, food-obsessed self. Happy 4th of July, dear friends. Be safe, be joyful, and know we love you.
WAFFLES: Hey Boss! Happy 4th of July!KATIE: Waffles, do you even know what the 4th of July is?
WAFFLES: Uh... the 4th of July???
KATIE: Wow, Waffles. Nothing gets past you.
WAFFLES: Thanks, Boss!
KATIE: Today's the day we celebrate our country's birthday.
WAFFLES: Cool! I'm going to decorate for the party. There's cake, right?
KATIE: No cake, Waffles. It's not that kind of birthday.
WAFFLES: No CAKE??? What a rip-off. I bet the country's going to be pretty mad there's no cake.
KATIE: Waffles, not EVERYTHING is about food you know.
WAFFLES: Are you sure??
KATIE: On July 4, 1776, our country's founders signed the Declaration of Independence and the United States of America became, well... the United States of America. Each year we celebrate our nation's birthday with family reunions, potato salad and fireworks.
KATIE: Now hurry up and get under the bed.
Happy 4th of July to all our US friends!
And special thanks to our Military Heroes– The Servicemen, Women & Animals that keep our country safe.
Please keep your pets safe too.
- Provide a safe and quiet room for them to comfortably hide during loud fireworks.
- Keep windows and doors shut.
- Turn on some soft music.
- Use calming aids like Feliway sprays or diffusers.
- Just act normal. If you're stressed or show concern for your cat, they'll sense something is wrong.
WAFFLES: I still say there should be cake.
