I Just Had To Share This Picture....

By
Real Estate Agent with Cedaredge Land Company

I Just Had to Share This Picture...The Christmas packages have arrived in record number today from our out of town family. All of our family is out of town. Unless we travel we have Christmas with just the three of us and friends. Traveling is difficult for us because we have a small farm we own and take care of. My husband, myself and our teenage daughter enjoy Christmas to ourselves and with some close friends.

Cats and Christmas packagesToday was a record day for UPS and the packages that were delivered to our house. I think our cats are getting a lot of enjoyment and use from the packaging material. Loki is the big white. He was a rescue from a bank owned listing I had 1.5 years ago. We bottle fed him. Little Buddy was rescued in our county, but found about six months ago at an adoption center in another county. He was rescued from Delta County where we found big white. Could they be related?

Hi Debbie, the great thing about cats and kittens is that it takes very little to activate their curiosity. Mine just finished tearing to shreads a big pile of tissue paper in the middle of Christmas Day evening dinner. No time to photograph, only to enjoy. We have adopted a device-free policy at meals. Merry Christmas from Santa (Fe), Emily

Love the picture and they look so happy and content amongst the wrappings.  I can understand that running a small farm could make traveling all together to visit out of area family a challenge.  I hope your Christmas was all you hoped for and best wishes for a great New Year.

Love the fact that they are rescues, Debbie, since I'm on the board of our SPCA. They are so sweet-all cuddled up in the wrapping paper.

Thanks, Toni. That's how we get our pets. They find us, or we find them at the local shelter. This area is extremely rural, and animals get dumped here all the time. We even took in a goose.

Endre....we love rescues also. Over 25 years ago I adopted a Doberman. I was concerned she might be mean because of her abuse. She was just over a year old when I got her. But she was the most loving and trusting dog. She had her protective side, but all dogs do. She lived to be almost 14 years old. I will never forget her. She was my first dog. I got her when I was in my young 20's. She taught me patience, compassion, understanding and so many other things. We traveled this country from coast to coast. She was my protector and she made friends everywhere. She was one of the most famous dogs at Telluride while that ski resort was growing and she even got to meet one of Jimmy Carter's bodyguards who couldn't believe a Doberman could be so nice. When I came out of the restaurant, she was sitting in the bodyguard's lap. That dog just always appreciated being loved after the abuse she suffered.

Suzanne just emailed me and told me to check this out.  Kitties are not my favorite animals, but these two are very cute.  I think this photo is suitable for framing.

One of our cats LOVES tissue paper from any packages we get.  We just toss it into a corner and she lays on it and plays with it for weeks.  Pretty funny really.

Hi, Jeanne and Ralph...it's funny what cats come up with to play with. Mine are very creative. We just got home today, and it was good to see them again.

Thanks, Ron...both are rescues. They are now living the good life. I just let Little Buddy out this morning. He's not crazy about the snow, and soon he'll want back in the house.

Pets and children would rather play with the packaging and paper than what is inside.
