A Cat's View of Labor Day




Cats know how to obtain food without labor, shelter without confinement, and love without penalties.---- W. L. George



Happy Labor Day to those celebrating!

 Labor Day in the United States is a public holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September. It honors the American labor movement and the contributions that workers have made to the strength, prosperity, laws and well-being of the country. Wikipedia
For everyone else, Happy Monday!

 Love Cody's tie? So do we!! It's from Mirage Pet Products . Dakota  will be featuring some adorable products of theirs this October and November! (Cody might be also!)

    Wait a minute, according to Sparkle's notes, Labor Day is the day put aside for humans to spend 100% of their time to labor for us cats! You mean it isn't?

    MOL, so true.

    We heard our humans talk in hushed voices the other night. They were talking about getting a puppy. Thankfully, mom was the voice of reason. She said, it might stress Emma if we add another four legs in the house. But I think they really are keen on getting a woofie.

    Hi you guys! Unfortunately, the kitties around here do have to work hard sometimes to get their Mumsy to put down her paintbrush and do something for them! It is just awful! :-) Hugs and love to you all!
