Hug Your Cat Day


Who the $%&@ thought this up?  Hug Your Cat Day?  As if it wuzn't bad enuf dat I had to put up wif my momma's' luvins, she wuz demandin a photo to go wif it.  And I wuz not havin it.  I are a ruff and tuff mancat, not some sissy lil limp-wristed feline.  I are Travis Ford, not Prince Snoogums McLuvin.  Ya named me after da commander of da Alamo, the man who famously drew the line in the sand and wrote of "Victory or Death."  Not public displays of affeckshun and huggin your momma.  Disgustin.

Da above wuz da one photo where I wuz not lookin like I wuz ready to slash momma (I never does, but I looked like it) or where it didn't look like she had me in a chokehold.


See, this are much better.  A handsome mancat, not bein manhandled by da momma.


Ya see, she didn't try it wif Angelique.  Angie's claws are too well known.


And Crockett, I'm not sure why he escaped it udder dan dat she wuz disgusted wif me and my struggles to get free.  He probably woulda liked it.

I are really demandin some bacon dis weekend for allowin her to post that indignitee of da furstest photo.

  2. Aw Travis, hugs do not mean you are not a Mancat.
    Hugs are nice.We get them all the time and we like them :)
    Maybe because Mom is soft and warm. MOL
    We do hope you get extra bacon though ;)

  10. Travis, that was a good kitty to put up with that hugging stuff. WE sure don't allow any of that. But it is a good picture of your Mom and you. Crockett, you are always cute. You all have a great week end.

  12. Even though you are being tortured, it's a pretty picture. I usually don't mind hugs, I just don't like to be squished. Lexy hates hugs, just like you.

  18. Awww...that is a sweet photo of you with your Mama- and yes, you deserve bacon.

  19. You guys should get lots of bacon for all that hugging you had to put up with.

    ReplyDelete
  20. You and your Mom do make a nice "hug" photo for sure Travis but I can tell by your face that you are LESS than happy about it.......I do think bacon should be served to those who put up with the big squeeze on Hug Your Cat Day!

    Hugs, Sammy
