Last week, we opened a Christmas package from Summer and her family at Sparklecat featuring Summer. After Pierre finally stopped eating the bows, we were able to get down to the real business… enjoying the gifts inside those beautiful packages.
Newton: It’s an oversized bug. I must kill it!
Pierre: You look kind of busy, Newton. While you’re doing that, I’m going to take this gift. Or maybe just the bow.
Newton: You can have the bow. Look what’s inside! It’s catnip. Give me give me give me catnip!
Newton: If I lick this enough, I may be able to eat the catnip and turn into Super Catnip Cat.
Pierre: Whatcha doing, Newt?
Newton: I’m playing with my awesome catnip fish. What are YOU doing?
Pierre: Oh, nothing. Just streeeeeetching.
Newton: I’ve seen how this ends before. I don’t like the look of this.
Newton: Hey, where are you going with that?
Pierre: Oh, look, the catnip fish just jumped right into my paws.
Newton: Can you believe he just did that!?
Newton: It’s all right, he can have it, because Summer also sent a catnip donut. I like that this has a bell because I will hear when Pierre steals it.
Newton: Give me give me give me catnip!
Ashton: I thought you said there was a donut. I love species-inappropriate food, but I can’t eat this!
Ashton: Lucky for me, Summer also sent us some freeze-dried chicken. Can I have another piece? Pleeeease?
Pierre: While Ashton is distracted by chicken, look what I found! It’s the best toys in the whole package.
Pierre: I’m going to play with bows, and I’m not going to share with anycat!
Pierre: I’m out of here!
There were also some pawesome cat socks in the package for the head peep, and she wore them immediately. She was so busy chasing Pierre and his bows that she didn’t get photos of them, but they’re purrrfect for her.
Big thank you to Summer and her family for the wonderful gifts. We’ll be enjoying these for a long time!
Safety Note
Ribbon can be dangerous for your cat if ingested, and bows are really just ribbon in disguise. So avoid potential big vet bills don’t let your cat chew on bows unattended. When we finished taking these photos, these bows were placed in a plastic food container to keep them safe… and to keep Pierre safe from them, too.
Oh my goodness, those catnip toys look wonderful. The fish is huge. I bet you’re both going to get a lot of enjoyment out of them. Summer was a great secret Santa.
Wow, Pierre! You are really into bows, aren’t you? I’m glad my human put some on the presents! And I hope your human saved them for more supervised fun later on!
Wonderful pictures! That Pierre is just a naughty cat burglar.
Freeze dried chicken – that seems to be Ashtons favourite choice of food.
What pawsome gifts! We haven’t been able to open our Secret Paws package yet. The mom is a Scrooge!
Hmmm … I’m starting to think Newton isn’t the menace among his siblings … Pierre seems like he gets his way an AWFUL lot …
And about those bows … you and Bear Cat must’ve gone to the same cat school, because Bear rips the bows off presents too. When I wrap, he rolls around in the bows I dump out … and if that is denied him, he’ll rip bows off finished presents and make off with them (okay, FIRST, he’ll prance around with the bow in his mouth showing off his conquest …).
Oh wrapping gifts took a long time when we snoopervised the mom over the weekend. Those bows need sniffing and resniffing.
Bows are for sure oversized bugs to be slayed!!
WE loved seeing your series of photos.
Hugs madi your bfff
Pawsome gifts ! The catnip fish seems to be very popular ! Purrs

Dang, we sure had fun watching the fun!
You made me laugh in the last photo, Pierre. Those are great gifts from Summer.
That Summer sure knows how to please kitties!!! Pierre’s photo is cracking me up! OMC how I LOVE HIM!!!!! You gave great advice but I always cut bells off of things too, if a cat is a chewer they are super dangerous!! xoxo
What a fun Secret Paws package!!! That catnip donut is just adorbs 🙂
MOL, Pierre! You definitely made us giggle. You guys got some fab presents.
Pawsome toys, kids! Our old bro William loved loved loved bows, too. In fact, he had a special favorite that our mom saved for him from year to year–it never lost its flavor!
You kitties really scored, those are great gifts. My KaTwo loves bows too and I do the same thing, only allow them supervised.
Now I REALLY want to send Pierre a package full of bows..
Whoa! Looks like you need Bows Anonymous. My furrend Winston had to go there. those are pawsome gifts.
Looks like it was a great Secret Paws package!
