My darlings,
My birthday, which I share with my assistant on June 9th, is coming up in a couple weeks (we’re Geminis!), and to help her help me, I’ve created this very special cat gift wish list.
Let’s hope she gets the hint.
Love ya more than catnip,
Tabs

Rachel R. says
These are all great. I want that coffee table aquarium, even though I don’t have any kitties at the moment.
Stephanie says
Oh boy, a couple of my cats saw this. I left your blog up and they were surfing. I see them furiously making a list as I type this, two of them are brothers and their birthday is in September. I think they are going to demand a few items from this list. Tabs should do these posts more often, they are much appreciated by pet assistants.
Erin says
Haha love this list! Binx just had his adoptaversary yesterday, I could have used this list earlier!

Happy upcoming birthday to you and Tabs. Some of these are great ideas. I like the Sure Flap, but since we never let our two girls outside unless we’re out with them I don’t have to worry about installing that one. I think at least of my two would like the high-low scratching pad. I also like the pod cat bed, but since a cardboard Sephora box is the preferred bed around here, there’s no point in spending that much.
Thanks for all the great ideas.
