For St. Catrick’s Day, we always participate in the traditional licking of the icing.
What, you don’t have this tradition at your house? We’ll be happy to tell you about it. First, you get a cupcake.
Newton: It’s really St. Catrick’s Day again?
Newton: Yesss!
Pierre: I’m getting my share of St. Catrick’s Day icing, too.
Ashton: Do you MIND, Newton? It’s traditional to lick the icing without having a cat staring at you.
As you can see, the key to licking the icing is not to eat it all, but to just have a taste.
Newton: I want more!
Pierre: No, the rest is for the head peep. Let her have her licks, too.
Ashton: If the head peep wanted some icing, I’m pretty sure she would have gone first.
Are you going to lick the traditional icing at your house for St. Catrick’s Day, too?

These photos are beautiful!! The first one with the cat’s nose right up to the icing is great! I loved hearing about this tradition at your house. It should be incorporated into all holidays.
Wow kitties, it’s so cool you get to lick the icing and that it is a tradition, how fun! Love the pics! We don’t have that at our house…but we have the mini-mugs of green ale…Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
Oh my goodness, you like icing. Reminds me of Buster and his love for whipped cream.
MOL, that’s an awesome tradition! Happy St. Patrick’s Day to you all!
Happy St. Patties Day! Looks like a yummy tradition. Any chance there was catnip in the icing? What a pawsome camera your Mom has! Purrz, Katie Kat.

I don’t know about us, but our mom would be all over that! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
That is a great tradition and I want my mum to do it from now on. She said she wants first lick though.
Uhm, yeahhhh. Mommy says SHE goes FIRST.
We don’t have one of those and I’m wondering why not. Ashton has the right idea. I bet the head peep has her own pupcake. Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
