Christmas in July....

First a PSA (pawblic support announcement): the White Dog Army is walking to support 2milliondogs.org as they walk to raise money to fight cancer. Can you help just a little?? There is a widget on their page. We know they are woofies, but come on CB - they are GREAT woofies!!! And who among us hasn't lost a woofie or known someone who has to this dread disease....

Now, on to Christmas in July. We got paired with The Island Cats and we were pretty excited when the man in the blue shorts left the box outside (OK - we didn't see it arrive, but we saw mom bring it upstairs). She HID THE BOX for a day to keep us out of it until she could get the flashy box out. sigh.....


hurry up already!!!

But the presents were awesome and we are so thankful to have great friends. We got a big Kong kicker and a HUGE new tunnel (with leopard spots) and treats and toys. They even sent us toys for the kittens (Ebony has taken over this red donut and guards it fiercely). 



Mom got a magnet for our fridge that makes us an official member of the Island Cat Club. And they even sent us a new kitty - mom is calling him George:

Everyone had a blast - Junior and Mo sure love the tunnel:


We had a blast checking everything out. Tim loves the new kicker most of all. THANKS to Wally, Ernie, Zoe and their people for our great presents.

Holy Christmas, CatMan!! That's a haul of LOOT! We foresee many many many tunnel games at 3 AM. And what about that BOX? Is that a good size or what...we hope you get to play with it too, 'specially since you had to wait an ENTIRE day to open it!

We're so glad you are enjoying your presents!! We have a tunnel like that one and we love it! (That's why mom gave Zoey the smaller one you sent us for her room...yes, she has her own room that she spends a lot of time in.) We hope all of you have lots of fun!! We sure enjoyed being paired up with you guys!!

Thanks for so generously mentioning our 2MillionDogs cancer cause...the best part of this organization is that it promotes comparative oncology to benefit fighting cancers in BOTH wolfies AND humans. Cancer is cancer, after all. We appreciate you support.

You have some very thoughtful July Santas! And thinking of christmas during this hot weather makes us all feel cooler and less grumpy. Thanks for sharing your fun.
