We are in disbelief that the month of May is coming to a close this week!
We had a very relaxing weekend, and are getting along splendidly. I am very patient with all of little Pasqua's antics. Mamma is quite amused with all of his silly behavior, but sometimes his kitty love bites can be a little much for both of us. Mamma does a very good job of distracting him with toys to bite instead of her hands, but on occasion, he will bite her ankle as she walks by, or try to bite my neck when I am near him. Hmmm... It was as if the Catster writers heard our concerns, because this week, they featured an article on this very topic. If you have kitties that bite, you may want to read this article to consider the different causes of this behavior: Why Do Cats Bite?
While you are on their site, don't forget to vote for Pasqua - only three days left to vote (you can vote every 24 hours!) in the Purrrific Photo Contest. Thank you.
All the running around and playing together can be quite exhausting. I think I have lost some weight, don't we both look slim, trim, and magnificent? 😻
We were happy Mamma had a day off from work yesterday, but when she explained why, it made us sad. The last Monday in May is a day of observance for those who died in active military service. On this day we are to reflect, remember, honor, and pray for these souls and their families. For their bravery and sacrifice should never be forgotten.
Please take a moment of silence in gratitude for our fallen heroes, as it is so important for us as Americans to take time to remember the sacrifices that bought us our freedom.
Hug your family and friends tightly!
Purr & Paw,

“Today is the day we put aside to remember fallen heroes and to pray that no heroes will ever have to die for us again. It's a day of thanks for the valor of others, a day to remember the splendor of America and those of her children who rest in this [Arlington] cemetery and others." - President Ronald Reagan.
