We have to apologize for not taking time to wish everyone a Happy Fourth of July. Blame it on Mom! She got home from work early on Thursday but she went out and started working in the yard. Then on the Fourth, there she was….doing the same thing! At least she had us outside so we were busy telling her what to do.
That night she said she was going over to visit some friends so they could all watch the fireworks together. We had no idea what she was talking about so we just stared at her (…as only we cats can do).
She told us to go around in the yard and look at all the colors and then imagine them up in the sky.
That’s just plain silly! But we wandered around and looked at colors.
We tried to imagine what they would look like in the air and we couldn’t get our kitty brains to work that way.
It’s another strange human thing!
Then Mom brought these photos home so we could see what the fireworks looked like.
Fine. Now we sort of understand.
Why don’t you just hang the flowers up higher and lie down on the ground to look at them?
Then you could celebrate the Fourth of July whenever you wanted!
Is Mom laughing????
I have a hunch you would not have liked the noise that goes with the pretty lights. By the way, the reason for the lights is to celebrate our country’s birthday. I know you know all about birthdays!
So everyone had catnip cake???
Your garden and flowers are exquisitely beautiful as were the fireworks. Thank you so much for sharing. XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
That’s what is so much fun about this blog world. We kitties get to share our worlds with everyone. Purrs and soft paw pats to all of you!! 🙂
That is the smartest thing I have heard in a long time! Thank you guys! I know, I must be the only human in the world that doesn’t like fireworks…..truth be told I am a bit afraid of them, childhood thing…..
Marty’s Mom
We try to help whenever we can. Truth be told…….Mom couldn’t go to fireworks unless she had her fingers in her ears well into her 20’s. She had a bad experience with a loud noise when she was young, too!
I like the colors MUCH better on the flowers!
So do we!
You kitties make a good point, but, flowers or fireworks, it’s all very pretty.
Thank you. We like pretty things!
I much prefer pretty flowers to fireworks for color – – – flowers don’t go KABOOM!
Hugs, Sam
We don’t like the kabooming either!
We don’t think you would have enjoyed the pretty lights as they are dwarfed by the big booms in the sky.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
That’s why Mom told us to look at the flowers. She figured we would like that much better. Guess she’s right…….again!
We like your pictures of the fire-boomers because they made no noise!
We like the silent kind, too!
