Curator Cat: Happy Thanksgiving from Shadow and Smudge!

in Caturday2 years ago

Greetings festive Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!

Today, we are celebrating Thanksgiving here in the US, which for us cats means turkey nibble treats and getting extra attention from our Hoomans!

Shadow, aka "Curator Cat"

The Hoomans only had a couple of close friends visit today, so there wasn't a big noise party to make the Felines feel nervous.

My new housemate Smudge is even starting to roam about and explore her new surroundings! We're doing our best to make it as easy and gentle as possible for her to feel comfortable here.

I had a very nice afternoon treat of "turkey bits" after which I was presented with a fresh "catnip pillow" which just made the afternoon that much better.

After rolling around for a while, I took a good nap!

Smudge enjoyed a hearty helping of turkey nibbles as well as her favorite stinky fish treats!

After that, she also went to sleep on her blanket under the big armchair in the living room, while the Hoomans had their dinner.

The Day is About... Being Thankful!

Although gobbling down the food was awesome, we also remember that this day is about being thankful and grateful for what we have, and for the good things in our lives!

We have a nice safe warm house here, and Hoomans who love us and take good care of us. I was particularly aware of that this evening as driving cold rain and wind came in, just around sundown.

I'm so glad I am not a street cat, having to fend for myself in this weather... with eagles, coyotes, raccoons and even the occasional cougar out there.

I am also thankful for all the good Hoomans out there who take in and care for strays and homeless animals. Thank you!

And with that thought in mind, I will now go back to my Thanksgiving nap!

Thanks for stopping by!

Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communties!

If you're a cat lover and often/sometimes post pictures or other content that includes your feline friends, why not become an active part of Hive's growing Cat Communities?

These are some of the more active Cat Communities — why not join them ALL? Remember, you can also "cross-post" your cat posts to them!

HiveCats by @curatorcat is a central "gathering place" for cat content on Hive; promoting the use of the #hivecats tag for feline content!

Cat Snaps by @manorvillemike is a place to post pictures of your cats when you don't have a whole lot to say beyond just sharing your cute photos!

Caturday Community by @saboin is a community where we get to celebrate posts relating to Saturday — aka "Caturday" — our own special day!

Cat Photos by @andrarchy is a "mixed use" cat content community; posts can be just photos or longer, as long as the subject is CATS! It has a lot of subscribers but is not very active.

Cats by @captainklaus (and Sissi!) is another "general" cat content community; it's there, but not very active.

Last, but certainly not least, a special shoutout to the recently formed Hive Pets Community which has become quite active and has quite a bit of cat content!

There are a number of other feline communities listed on Hive, but I am not sharing them for now as they have not had any activity (by their Admins OR users) since the Steem/Hive fork. Updates as they become available!
