so, this coming friday is what i have dubbed [kitty] founders day–it is exactly one year from when my brother-in-law found my cats (well, they weren’t my cats at the time) at about 3 weeks old, in a creek bed, in a pile of trash under a mattress. they have come a long…loooong way from their days of barely being able to stand up and having to eat from a bottle. since they completely comprehend this anniversary that is approaching, i knew they’d be disappointed if i did not do something special for them (read: i am a complete goober and thought it’d be fun to celebrate, even though it’s just another spoiled day for the cats).
in preparation for this friday, i decided to make some cat toys for them. i started last night, but bought a key ingredient on the way home from work today so i could finish up what i had started.

next on my list is to felt a chickadee with a bell inside, the pattern found inside this book. i’ll let you know the results of all the toys, and hopefully how the kitties enjoy them at their founders day celebration!
You’ll have a couple of completely contented kitties by the end of the day. They’ll just love these, can’t wait to see the photos
um…tootie and the blowfish? So what, your niece is a cat toy now? Happy Ditta founders day…love them ditta babies. Here's to Fuzzy & Speedy, Wallace & Truman, Millie & I don't remember the other name we came up with.
GENIUS!!!!!!!!! i love it!
