Thankful Thursday Blog Hop: 3 Thankful Things Today

      48 Comments on Thankful Thursday Blog Hop: 3 Thankful Things Today

thankful thursday blog hop brian 09202018Once again I get to say welcome to our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop, we are sure happy to see you today. It seems like I say that every week, but I really mean it. It’s time for us to post about things we are thankful for, as we do every Thursday. We sure do look forward to reading about all of the things you are thankful for too and we sure love it when we see new blogger pals hopping in to join us!

My first thankful is an important one, but truth be told, I’d rather not be thankful for it, yet I am.  Thank you all for you kind and loving words on the passing of Sister Precious.  Thanks too for the beautiful memorial graphics, e-cards, purrsonal emails, messages and cards.  Believe me, while Sister Precious lived alone in her special Upstairs Suite, she filled the whole house with her love and personality.  She would truly be happy to know she was loved by so many.

Then, I’ve to to say I am thankful for our Mom and Dad and the care and love they provide us each and every day.  We’re part of a fortunate group of kitties that made it through shelter life or feral life to enjoy all that we do, always.

Last, but certainly not least, I’m thankful to have a Brother.  Simon is such a hoot and always keeps us entertained.  His new favorite toy is da Bird and both he and Sister Seal love to catch it and drag it though the house.  They know where da Bird is hidden and you can see the excitement when the Dad wakes it up for evening playtime.

So, what are you thankful for today?  Tell us in the comments and then join us for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.  Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!

We are gone on weekends for sports and rarely read blogs or email for that matter on the weekends. It is a shock to hear about Precious and we are sorry we did not know sooner, but we went back and found your post from Saturday. She will be missed even though she lived her own life in her suite. We know she had a wonderful life at your house. So sorry to hear of her passing.

So sorry for your loss, while cats usually live longer than dogs, it’s still never long enough.

I’ll have to do a thankful post today, it’s been too long since my last one.

I love the three things you are thankful for. In the beginning of this year, I started posting every single day on my Gratitude page on Facebook. I’m amazed at how much better I feel, having begun focusing on the positive.

Thanks for sharing this great blog hop!

Ha – we just did a “truth be told” post not knowing we would find that expression here:) We think you kitties are just so fortunate to have found the wonderful home you have. We feel the same way about our home. It is nice not to have to worry about a warm home, good food, and lots of love. Too bad there are so many peeps and animals who don’t have it so good.

Maybe you can get Dad to do a video of the two young ones playing with Da Bird:)

Sister Precious certainly filled your home with her beautiful spirit, Brian. She’s still there with you all, watching over you. Sister Precious truly was blessed to have such a wonderful mom and dad as yours, Brian, just as you’re all so blessed to have such a wonderful family. Purrs and prayers to you all.

Life can throw a lot of bad stuff at us at times, and remembering what we need to be thankful for can be tough. But there is always something good! We are glad you have Simon to entertain you and make you smile when it might not be easy. ♥

I’m thankful for the truck driver who rescued dozens of shelter animals during Florence. I’m thankful that so many of us are so loved. I’m also thankful that Pop finally built that cat tree after 4 years and I’m thankful that TW has been taking time to play with me even though it cuts into our blog visiting time.. Love you!

We wish we were thankful this week for a seizureless Sawyer, but that’s not the case this week. But we are super excited about and thankful for the beautiful portrait Marv’s mom, Barb, made for us. It hurts our heart that Sister Precious went to the bridge, but it was great that she had such a wonderful and loving home.
