Well, I just thought up this day for a special reason and I think we should all celebrate the hugs and snuggles we get and give to anthros as little creatures in their households. Therefore, I declare today, March 11, as National Hug and Snuggle Day forever.
Personally, I could get scratched and snuggled and cuddled all day long if it didn’t interfere with my beauty sleep, and lord knows, I am…er…interrupted several times a day by papa, who simply cannot pass me by without giving me a little scratch on the neck or chuck under the chin
The reason is that papa’s sister, Polly, is no longer with us and died in her sleep peacefully two days ago. It is a good thing. She had no pain. She went to sleep and all was well, as she has been quite ill and created for herself three extra years of life when she had been told that she had only six months. A lovely, strong woman. I did not know her because she was far away, but mama and papa were so glad to have made the trips to see her and to have become closer because of them. So I thought, well, Loulou, maybe to see sweet cuddles between kitties and their dear families would be a nice thing for today, Polly’s birthday. A little gift for her memory. Don’t be sad. Her life on this earth was beautiful and full and she touched everyone with her Polly-ness.
Mama is going to plant a rose for her soon. Then I can think about her in the garden. That will be really nice.
I am one loved kitty.

Cuddle days are my absolute favourite! I’m sorry to hear about the loss, sending you lots of positive energy and kitty kisses.
We are all fine now and thank you so much for your energy.
You sure are a furry loved kitty…
So sorry to hear that your Aunt Polly passed away. Blessing that she lived longer than doctors expected.
Purrz and Loves
Katie Kitty Too.
And she lived so well.
Such sweet photos ! Happy snuggling ! Purrs
Thank you so much, Swiss Kitties.
Sending purrs to Papa so he feels a bit better. Kitty purrs and cuddles are very good medicine
He does feel better after your nice comment.
We think you have the right idea, Loulou. Hugs and snuggles are great!
We’re sorry about your Papa’s sister…sending your family lots of purrs.
She was ready to move on and it was a painless move. That’s the blessing.
The love between you and Papa probably helped him feel less sad about Aunt Polly. She is well and free now, and will be remembered. Purrs & cuddle here too !
Thank you, Mary, and yes, I snuggled with him alot over the last two days.
Every day is snuggle and hug day! Love your photos!
Thank you so much. I love posing…
Oh, Loulou, I think Polly’s spirit touched us TOO yesterday. We didn’t know her, but felt like we did – and I was especially cuddly and kept climbing on Mama’s lap. She says I will get extra cuddles today for Polly and to remember to appreciate every day those we love since it all goes by too fast – but the love stays. You will all be in our thoughts.
Oh, Mya, I’m sure you knew something. Animals know so much more than anthros…
I am so sorry for the loss of your Aunt Polly. Kitty snuggles are always good. XO
Yes, we had lots of those yesterday.
Oh LouLou, dat be so sweet. We luv hugs and cuddles. Mommy gives them to us all da time. On da rare occasion we think we’re not gettin’ enuff, we find mommy and jump in her lap fur more. Usually along with a little nap too. Nuffin’ better than a mommy’s or daddy’s lap. We’re sendin’ hugs to you papa and your mommy. Loss no matter what is never fun. Big hugs and purrayers fur all.
Luv ya’

Thank you, Dezi. Wish I could snuggle you two, too.
Jesse is a dog after Jan’s heart. Marcus is jealous but he says he doesn’t do housework.
We’re sorry your dad lost his sister, but sure glad your mama and papa had a good relationship with her and got to make visits. A warm hug of comfort for all.
Loulou, you’re just irresistible.
WOW, that’s a big mouthful and thank you. Sometimes I find it hard to resist MYSELF! Especially when hungry…MYOW.
We’re so sorry to hear about your Aunt Polly, Loulou. You have our condolences. We’re a big fan of snuggles here, and we bet you just about fix anything, Loulou 🙂
I was available all day for any kind of snuggle anyone wanted.
