Greetings Furriends! Today is Earth Day, and today is also my Birth Day! Actually, we don’t really know what day, or even what year I was born. So Mom picked April 22, 2003 as my approximate date of birth.
So that means I am 9 years old today!
To celebrate, Mom ordered us some primo Valerian Root. Thanks to the Katnip Lounge kittehs for the recommendation! Panda Bear and Cookie were the first Bambinos on the scene when Mom opened the box.
Mom thought we would like the Valerian Root because she heard that Valerian Root smells like “stinky feet”. And, ahem, a few of us Bambinos are connoisseurs of The Stinky Foot Smell.
Caramel (aka Ms. Floooooofs) also really enjoys a good whiff of Mommy’s Old Stinky Slippers. Floofs’ toehawks are visible in this photo.
Meerkat took one whiff of the Valerian Root, and look what happened:
The same thing happened when Sunny took one whiff:
And Sky got Sky High after rolling in the Valerian Root that Mom sprinkled on the carpet.
When I sniffed the Valerian Root, I was not impressed. Mom, you woke me up for this?
Then Sunny and Panda Bear really became feisty after a few more whiffs of the Root.
They settled their differences in true ManCat style.
Mom and Dad made up for the lousy birthday present by giving me some REAL Food for Breakfast today. They opened a can of Albacore Tuna and gave me lots of tuna and tuna juice!
All right, I shared the tuna with the rest of the Bambinos. Sky also really loved the Albacore Tuna!
You are most welcome to teleport over here to try out the Valerian Root for yourself! If you don’t like the Root either, we also have some Primo Nip! Oh, and Mom’s Stinky Slippers, too.
Purrs,
Padre, aka Earth Day Birthday Boy
Pee. Ess. We haven’t been blogging much these past few months for a variety of lame excuses. Late last year, Mom’s compooter started slowing down to the point of the ridiculous. So she uninstalled some software which kept it limping along for a few more months. Finally, it was so bad that she broke down and bought a new compooter. And you know what that means kittehs – it takes humans FOREVER to set up their new compooter and install all the software and files needed for blogging. We hope that Mom is now back in proper blogging form. We have really missed you and can’t wait to start getting caught up reading all your bloggies!
Happy Birffday, Padre!!! Sorry you didn’t get into the Root…but at least the rest of the gang did, and you got TOONAS! score.
mom had the same problem with her old computer – so she upgraded to the laptop – now no excuses for not being on at home since she can sit in the comfy chair in front of the TV
Happy Birthday Padre!!! Looks like the root was ALMOST a hit…. MOL
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! May your day be filled with love & cuddles and treats and nip. Lots & lots of the nip! Oh, and this new root stuff, too. Exactly what is it? Is it that valerian plant thingy? Very curious to know. And it’s pretty neat ’bout your birthday ’cause my ninth birthday was last Sunday. We’re practically twins! Hehehehe….
Happy birthday, Padre! It seems you’re having a good time anyway, even if the Valerian root didn’t impress you. (Maybe silvervine?)
Have fun!
Happy Earthday/Birthday, Padre! Tuna is a good way to celebrate.
Happy Birthday Padre! We love Valerian, but mum agrees that it stinks.
Happy birthday/earthday to you, Padre! All of us wish you many more.
Happy bEARTHday to you, Padre!
Happy Birthday, Padre! Glad to see you post again.
