holiday weekend


Yoo-hoo!  YOO-HOO!  It's a holiday weekend, my friends.  A HOLIDAY WEEKEND!  There will be no workin' for this cat this weekend, for sure.  'CAUSE IT'S A HOLIDAY, MY FRIENDS.  A HOLIDAY!


MOUSES!


What?  What's that, Peepers?  What's that you're babblin' on about now?


Oh.


Yeah.


That.


Hmmm...


Well it's still a holiday weekend, whether or not it's a special day off for me.


What's that?


Oh.


That.


Hmmm...


Well just 'cause I don't have an actual job...


Just 'cause I don't work...


It doesn't mean that...


Okay, so it sorta DOES mean that I don't have to...


Okay, so fine.  I'm a cat.  And as a cat, I don't have a job.  And I don't do what one might call...  Well...  Work.  So yeah, if you're gonna put it like that, I guess this isn't a special long weekend for me on account of EVERY weekend bein' a long weekend, you see.


I suppose.


MOUSES!


But...


Well...


Well I still think that as this is Victoria Day Weekend and it IS a holiday weekend for most, I should also get to celebrate in some way.  Even if I don't have an extra day off...


I should still...


I should still...


I should STILL find a way to celebrate the day.


AND THE BEST WAY I KNOW to celebrate is to imbibe in the nip.


So...


SO BRING ON THE NIP, is what I say.  BRING ON THE NIP! 


But not for you, ol' peep of mine.  Nip is for cats and you're just a peep.  So just bring on the nip for Saffy and me.


Okay?


Okay.


MOUSES!


Well I'm glad that's all settled.  Peepers, you can find yourself some other way to celebrate, I should think.  Why not take a day off and have a nice long holiday weekend?


After you tend to all my needs, of course.  My very important holiday weekend needs.  After all, it wouldn't be right for me not to enjoy MY holiday weekend on account of your slackin' in the lookin'-after-kitties department, you see.


After all, apparently I'M not gettin' an extra day off.


MOUSES!


But all that aside...


HAPPY HOLIDAY WEEKEND, MY FRIENDS!  HAPPY HOLIDAY WEEKEND!  Happy Victoria Day to you all.


MOUSES!

  5. The Hubby claims that every day is Victoria Day here at Eastside Cats, since that's my name.
    He was shining me up for some reason!
    We have Memorial Day next Monday, which is the start of the summer season in America.
    Enjoy your day, whether you are a cat or a human.

  6. Happy Victoria Day!
    We celebrated here at our Michigan dwelling by hanging out our Canadian flag, since petcretary is Canadian...and she had the day off....but then she hardly ever works on Mondays! She does have to work on our Memorial day...sigh...

  7. The every day is a holiday for us cats idea that humans haave is sooo wrong. I mean who else could do the role we do, hmmm?
    Basically, Seville, you deserve a little something extra, something pizza-like? May a Victoria Day pizza with Victoria spelled out in cheese strings with flourishes of catnip 🙂
    Toodle pip and purrs.
