HEY, this is turkey in gravy–that’s about as close as I’m going to get this year!
Well, mama just wanted to mention a friend who wrote recently (Cat Solarium lady, Melissa) that a few years ago when she used to take food and clothing and other necessities to poor families at Christman in her neighbourhood in Alabama, it pretty well tore her heart out to see the poverty that some lived in, and this kind lady had ten people on her list to help but found at the end that there were actually eleven in all. And so she took her Christmas dinner to the eleventh family and had no dinner for her and her boyfriend, but he had given her five bottles of Champagne for Christmas, so she simply drank one and celebrated anyway, A kind friend of theirs brought over all their leftovers and everyone was happy.
Wasn’t that a nice story? This lady also had a thrift store where women without work could have a job and she helped a lot of women get back on their feet.
So, what with it being Turkey Day and all, we have to give thanks to anthros who help others, and all of you out there who have shelters and take care of many abandoned animals, a big thanks to all of YOU.
I have to say that around here, every day is full of thanks for so many lovely things, including the wonderful blogging friends we now know.
No one here in Italy celebrates, so mama and papa are having a tiny chicken-for-two, which mama will stuff with cornbread dressing and for dessert, mama’s making tiny pecan pies (for papa). As for me, I give thanks for my sweet life (except for travel to the vet and two countries!) and to my new and old blogging friends. As for the ‘giving’ part of the word, let’s hear it for a bit of KIBBLE GIVING on this special day!
Happy Turkey Day to all.
They should have let me hunt that bird. Then maybe we would have had one for dinner!!!
HEY, that little grandanthro got some!!! Why not share? (Mama’s favourite picture of Thanksgiving, taken a few years ago.)
Happy Turkey Day to all!
Happy Turkey day!!!
We are thankful for so many cat bloggers that we can follow and be friends with !
ME, TOO!!!!
Lovely photo ! Happy Thanksgiving ! Purrs
And to you, too!!! Do you have Thanksgiving in Switzerland?
Oooooo! We’d like to sink our teeth into that turkey leg! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your peeps, Loulou. 🙂
And to you, too!!!
Loulou – that’s brilliant – Happy Kibblegiving Day!!! We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, but the story about Melissa is so truly inspiring that mama is going to take 5 euros to give to the man in the wheelchair with no legs on the streets that papa helps out regularly – on our way to Dandy’s where mama will have an Aperol spritz and papa, a glass of wine and i’ll get extra kibbles! Then, it’s pizza – and we’ll give thanks for a beautiful life, wonderful friends, health, a home – and kibbles!!!
Oh, Mya, thank you and thanks FOR you and maman and papa. Happy Pizza Day! I think we MAY have something resembling a bird but boy, is it SMALL! Not sure there’s enough for THREE. And yes, that man will be so glad. We have many on our streets here and so mama and papa just consider that their places to help, thanks for the reminder.
Thanks for the Thanksgiving wishes 🙂 I see our blog titles are quite similar “great minds” Hand over the turkey leg……..
I adored your blog and yes, we tend on Thanksgiving to think of all the things we are thankful for and yes, there are too many to list. Your blog was one I wanted to link to our blog but then I didn’t as I think we have the same readers! THANK you for BEING!!!!

Yep, that’s a boy, grab a drumstick. Jan prefers the white meat. There won’t be any turkey this year but she said we still need to be thankful.
Hey, maybe your turkey got waylaid (so to speak) and is thinking maybe it would be better to show up around Dec you know what and avoid the Thanksgiving crowd……….
