Caturday Art
1. Cleaning up clutter before it piles up is a habit I want to develop.
2. I can't seem to break my habit of biting my nails.
3. I just recently ate fiddleheads for the first time ever. My uncle, who passed away late last month, loved picking fiddleheads each spring. At his funeral luncheon last weekend his children and grandchildren made fiddlehead quiche. It was yummy!
4. The 1950s is a historical period I wish I could visit. A much simpler, more innocent time.

2025 Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Cats & Cat Moms from Etsy
Meows from Mudpie!
Just like previous years Mommy wasn't planning on a Valentine's Day gift guide but I talked her into it by reminding her of all the cool things we find on Etsy! We've broken our picks down into gifts for cats and gifts for cat moms, so there's a little something for everybody!
We hope you enjoy our picks, and don't forget, if you find something here you like and make a purchase using our affiliate links, I get a little money for my piggy bank so I can buy something special for Mommy on Valentine's Day!

Disgruntled #SundaySelfie
Meows from Mudpie!
If I look disgruntled in my selfie this week it's for good reason.
Yesterday morning Mommy got up super early - on a Caturday no less! - to go to a family funeral. She said I had to snap my selfie right away because it would likely be getting dark before she got home. I was barely awake! I even chopped part of my face off because I was too sleepy to center the camera!
Mommy said something I found very rude too. She left some snacks out for my lunch, and I heard her joke to Grandpa that it's a good thing she never leaves me for 2 or 3 days with a bowl of kibble because I don't understand the concept of rationing and would eat the whole bowl the first day.
She's right, but she wasn't very nice to say it...

Snowshoe Mudpie #CaturdayArt
Meows from Mudpie!
Doesn't this Negative effect make me look like a snowshoe kitty???
1. The Inauguration was the highlight of my week.
2. A new book (or movie or TV show) that I highly recommend is Happy's Place starring Reba McEntire and the new Tim Allen comedy Shifting Gears.
3. Ice cream, especially soft serve (or a creemee as it's known here in Vermont) makes me feel like a kid again.
4. If I had to sing karaoke right now, I'd choose the song Crazy by Patsy Cline.

Thankful Thursday: 2025 CFA Cat Show
Meows from Mudpie!
Over the weekend Mommy attended the CFA cat show that comes to our town every January.
This beautiful tortie named Sienna was entered in the housepet division. Everyone was oohing and aahing over her, but when Mommy went to take her picture, Sienna turned her back to the camera! Her owner turned her around and Mommy started scratching behind her ears, and eventually Sienna allowed her to snap a quick picture.
Such beautiful kitties!
Everyone was cracking up at this kitty with her head hiding under her blankie.
I guess she had had enough of the whole thing!
Mommy picked up a few souvenirs, of course...
some cute bookmarks,
and a Tortitude sticker that she plans to put on her new laptop.
Mommy had fun at the show and was in Heaven being surrounded by so many kitties,
but she happily came home to little ol' me!
We're joining the Thankful Thursday blog hop because we're super thankful that a cat show has come to our little neck of the woods for probably around 30 years now!

Caturday Art
1. I'll never buy sandwiches from Subway again. They're nothing like they used to be.
4. My common sense is the most normal thing about me.
2. It's all fun and games until Mudpie sees another cat. She was sequestered in an office at the shelter for good reason!
3. I once got lost in the parking lot of my local fairgrounds. It was after my last Toby Keith concert in 2013, and I wandered for close to an hour in the dark before I finally found my car. I even passed by Toby's bus a number of times and he never invited me in! LOL he probably thought I was a stalker.

National Hat Day Fashionista
Mommy here!
Mudpie gives dressing up a big four paws down. Maybe one day I'll slip a cowgirl hat on her head while she's sleeping...

Little Beggar #SundaySelfie
Meows from Mudpie!
This is what Mommy calls my "Little Beggar" face. Would you be able to tell me "no"? Mommy sure can't.
See that package in front of me? That's a package of Friskies Party Mix treats. When I want some treats or a squeezie I knock the package over and tap on it. Usually Mommy says I have to wait a little while, but I always get my way in the end.

1. I will keep my old appliances over new ones any day. Nothing made today will last anywhere near as long.
2. My theme song for the year is I Will Survive.
3. Evening cuddle/reading/TV time with Mudpie is the most relaxing part of my day.
4. Morning is the most stressful part of my day.

Feline Friday Flashback: Snow Thank You
Meows from Mudpie!
After a number of mild winters in our neck of the woods, this year we're having a good old-fashioned Vermont winter. It's been bitterly cold for some time, and most days there's a light, fluffy snow falling. Yesterday just a dusting was predicted and we ended up getting over 5 inches!
Normally Mommy would love it, but she worries about our feral boy Mo so, so much.
Get it off!!! Get it off!!!
Then things got even worse when she decided to sprinkle a little of the snow on me...and a flake landed near my bottom!!! Not funny, Mommy. Not funny at all.
