Christmas Comes Late (…or very early) and It’s Great!

We participated in Secret Paws for the first time this year and unfortunately (through no fault of our wonderful Secret Paws gift-giver Pawesome Cats— the gifts were coming all the way from Australia! It says on the package they were mailed end of Nov on one part of the package and the other says…get this…Sept 9, 2015…I think the Australian postal service might need some help…either that or they have the ability to go back in time!!) they arrived just a teensy, weensy, itsy bit late. But the wait was worth it! See for yourself…Yeah Christmas in March!




FRODO: A package for us!? This is so exciting. First we win the St. Patty’s Catnip Mat from 15andMeowing and now this!? What a week!
ZULU: It sure smells good!




AMARULA: Now just wait a minute! Why is this addressed to ALL of us. Surely you two nincompoops can’t be deserving of Christmas presents!



AMARULA: Well I will admit the gifts were beautifully wrapped and came with a lovely card (again, shamefully addressed to Zulu and Frodo as well as myself. I mean really…I don’t even think those two can even read!) It says “Wishing you a happy Christ-mouse from the Pawesome Cats Charlie, Max, Ava, Amber and Mom Tracy!”



AMARULA: It was wonderful!!! Look at all this stuff!



AMARULA: It came with these great snacks!

AMARULA: …and the most colorful, cutest toys we’ve ever seen!



AMARULA: Look how pretty those toys are!! We loved them.

AMARULA: Seriously…I don’t really have to share do I?

AMARULA: Frodo quickly made off with one of the toys and promptly fell asleep with it in his paws!


AMARULA: Of course, fatty Frodo also tried to steal all the Kangaroo treats but I put a stop to that! I have never seen these giant mice called “Kangaroos” but I can indeed attest to their deliciousness! (Seriously we loved them so much that I saw the human checking to see if they –or any form of kangaroo treat– is available in Canada and sadly they are not!!). As soon as we get our feline passports we are all flying down to Australia to thank you personally Pawesome Cats–make sure to have lots of those giant hopping mice treats in supply!

Many Many thanks from all of us! This was the best Late/Very Early Christmas Gift Ever! Thanks Pawesome Cats! You live up to your name! And a HUGE thank you to Paula at Sweet Purrfections for organizing Secret Paws!

  1. Whoa! Merry March Christmas! Amarula, at least your name is first on the card. You sure got some nice loot. I don't think I've ever had Kangaroo.

  2. We're so happy to hear you received your Secret Paws package. We couldn't believe it took so long to get to you, but it appeared there were problems with international shipping this year. We'd love to try some kangaroo treats! Thank you for participating in Secret Paws this year!
