ShiShi's Christmas Preparations

Getting Ready Fur the Holidays

Picture
The Christmas Season is such a busy time fur me -so much to be done in preparation, so much to oversee.  I hardly know where to start most days!  With such a big family, there is always something going on around here:  tree decorating pawties, house decorating pawties, and even more pawties to make all those delightful decorations.  Plus, I purrsuaded my family this year that homemade gifts are much more fun fur me to help with, so there has been quite the workshop set up on our dining room table that (of course) also is in need of my expert supervision.   

Truly, there are so many things to rearrange so that Santa will love them best, so many gifts to add the delicate touch of my paw to complete - I hardly know how to get the time fur a catnap these days.  I've been kept up late many nights -busy with my re-arranging, then up again at the crack of dawn.  It's good that things tend to be a little more calm around here in the afternoons, because it's nearly the only time that I've been sleeping!  Now, in case you wonder, meowma has frequently told me that I should put off my Christmas readying efforts until morning, but I'm so worried that we won't be all ready fur Santa to visit.  And that would just be a tragic disaster!

Christmas is a Lot of Work!

Picture
My biggest work of seasonal art this year is, of course, our Christmas Tree.  Or, I should say, My Christmas Tree.  You simply wouldn't believe the time and effort that I have been putting into making sure that My Tree will be up to Santa Paws' exacting standards come Christmas Eve.  I mean, I do deeply appreciate all the toys that my family hung so carefully on the tree fur me to play with, but I'm really looking forward to seeing Santa Paws (and conversing with his reindeer while they are on break at our house).   The things those reindeer have seen while traveling all over the world - you wouldn't believe the pawsome, interesting conversations we have each year while they nibble on their carrots!

Not to be furgotten in the Christmas effort, of course, is all of the necessary baking fur pawties, and the treats made to give to furriends and family far away.  I rarely supervise this pawt myself - that is normally Chef Haku's job.  However, this year Haku was somewhat indisposed after eating his way through a bag of rice that had been tucked away in the pantry fur safekeeping, and I was forced to take over a portion of his duties.   While I do enjoy watching over the creation of some of the finer Christmas pastries (such as meowma's special recipe fur Bonito Flake Pinwheels), having to keep track of all the hooman treats as well can be very wearing.  My advice to any of your who find yourself in such a situation is to sniff only - those hooman cookies just don't have the same fabulous flavoring as the Kitty Only ones...

 My Tips Fur the Best Christmas Ever!

Picture
  1.  This may well be the most impawtant part of the Christmas season - be SURE to check your special tree each night fur any of your toys that may not be displayed to their best advantage.  This means exploring that tree thoroughly from top to bottom, even if you don't feel like it!

2.  Christmas is a special time of giving and spreading joy.  Don't neglect to lay on all of your pawrent's special clothing items and spread your delightful glitter.  How else will their furriends and co-workers know that they have a special kitty at home (you!) and know to ask about you??

3.  Christmas Day will come sooner than you think.  It's purely ameowzing how fast the time will speed along.  Be sure to take plenty of catnaps (you can do dual-duty with your pawrents' clothing here, if only you plan ahead), and take extra good care of yourself.  A hot catnip toddy at night will not be amiss.

4.  Feel free to indulge in as many other treats as you wish to celebrate the season with.  Salmon canapes, venison Pâté, sparkling tunatinis - the tempting list of Christmas delicacies goes on and on, as you well know.  But have no fear - those few extra calories will only mean more floof to love, and Christmas is all about the Love.  Although, in Haku's case, there may be a LOT more floof to love...
