Broshi before the pawty Dear Everyone,

It’s me, Broshi.

Bow-Tie said I can write to you this week.

I went to a girly party and he doesn’t want to be part of it.

Ha ha ha for Bow-Tie.

This is me before the party.

Broshi going to a pawty This is me, all dressed up for the party!

It’s an event to raise money for animals by auctioning off designer purses.

This is my new dress and I feel very beautiful.

Broshi got her own chair When I got there, I got my very own chair.

Broshi got a purse Better yet…

…I got my very own little purse!

Broshi looking cute at the party My chair is the perfect place for people to adore me…

…and they did.

Miss Lily was at the party too Miss Lily was there, too.

She decided to go a bit more formal with her little black dress.

All the partying made Broshi sleepy A big party is a bit tiring for this kitty.

I was happy to curl up on my chair with my blanket and take a nice cat nap.

Thanks for listening to my story of the big day.

Bow-Tie will be back next week!

Love,

Broshi

Bow-Tie with a Wooby Hi Everyone,

Coming to you today from inside a carrier.

This week was my annual wellness trip to my vet.

As soon as I arrived they threw this “Wooby” in my carrier.

Bow-Tie with a Wooby Wooby??

What’s a Wooby?

Turns out a Wooby is a calming agent for scared cats.

Bow-Tie is a confident cat I am not a scared cat.

I am a confident cat.

I prefer to wait for my doctor on my own, without a carrier or pacifier.

Bow-Tie at the vet Dr. Holt came in and with the help of her assistant gave me the once-over.

They both agreed I’m in good shape for the shape I’m in!

Bow-Tie getting purrsonal cuddle time The best part of the visit was the last part.

One of the vet techs heard I was in the exam room, and came to see me.

She wanted a little purrsonal Bow-Tie time.

Bow-Tie getting purrsonal cuddle time I was happy to oblige, because after all…

…purrsonal lovin’ is the best part of any day.

Love you all!

A portrait of Bow-Tie Dear Friends,

Look at this…

…a portrait of yours truly!!

Bow-Tie with the Pet Gazette And if that wasn’t enough…

…it’s on the front cover of a local pet magazine!

Bow-Tie with the Pet Gazette Yep. That’s me…

…and it’s out on newsstands now.

Inside is the story of how Cat Depot saved me from a horrific hoarding environment.

Bow-Tie and Courage I know my readers are all over the country.

Sorry, this is a local magazine so you may not be able to get it, but you can still see the cover.

Courage was sweet and wanted to share in my joy.

She also wore a bow tie to help celebrate the occasion.

Bow-Tie and Broshi Broshi on the other hand just plopped herself down right on my face.

You can dress them up, but you can’t make them behave.

Bow-Tie looks handsome in his bow tie Thanks to this wonderful magazine for making me a cover boy.

Thanks again to Cat Depot for making me healthy enough to be me!

Love you all!

Bow-Tie and his shadow Dear Friends,

Who is Phil and why does everyone listen to him?

He’s a groundhog with only one thing to do all year.

Either he sees his shadow, or he doesn’t.

Really?

That is not a big deal.

I can make my shadow do tricks!

See it now, standing with me on this side?

Bow-Tie looks at his shadow Now look…

…it’s on the other side of me, and it sat down!

Bow-Tie has a long shadow Wait… Watch this.

I can make it go in front of me and be really long.

Bow-Tie saw his shadow And if that’s not enough…

…I can make it face the opposite direction.

Bow-Tie wonders where shadows come from So, you be the judge.

Who has a better shadow?

Phil, who only sees it – or doesn’t see it – one day a year…

…or me, Bow-Tie, the cat with the shadow that does tricks?

Love to you all!

Bow-Tie with rulers Dear Friends,

I have a question for you…

…how do you measure up?

Bow-Tie with rulers We all think about that, don’t we?

How do we measure up against others?

How do we measure up against a task, project, or job?

Bow-Tie with rulers We use all kinds of measurements to decide how good or bad we are as compared to others.

Truth is, no matter what measurement you use, you cannot measure your individuality.

Bow-Tie with rulers So please, put all of those measuring tools away.

You’re purrfect just the way you are.

We are all purrfect just the way we are…

Adorable Bow-Tie …and don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you don’t measure up!

Bow-Tie with rulers You’re purrfect…

…and I love you!

Until next week!

Whitey Wobbles in a bow tie Dear Friends,

This is Whitey Wobbles…

…and he’s my friend.

Bow-Tie's bow tie matches Whitey's He was Mighty Lou’s friend first.

Then he took me under his wing and helped me learn the ropes.

He and Mightly Lou had matching bow ties.

Now I wear it with pride.

Bow-Tie got a gift Guess what my good bud did?

He sent me a gift bag full of toys and treats.

Bow-Tie and Annie Sullivan Once I got the things out of the bag…

…Annie Sullivan came out of nowhere to investigate.

There were treats inside and she smelled them, so who could blame her.

Bow-Tie eating, holding the treat bag with his paw Whitey knows I don’t have any teeth…

…so he sent soft treats.

The girls are not getting any of these.

Bow-Tie licking his lips I love soft treats…

…mmmm good!

Bow-Tie and Annie Sullivan thanks Whitey Wobbles Thanks Whitey for thinking of me…

…and for being a good friend!

Love you all!

Bow-Tie with his cat and dog bow tie Dear Friends,

Facebook can be mean sometimes.

You all agree with me.

Recently I was the victim of a negative Facebook comment.

I am now here to defend myself.

See my cat and dog bow tie?

It proves I am an equal opportunity cat, and spread the love equally.

Bow-Tie being nuzzled by a dog Someone on Facebook made the comment, “Bow-Tie sleeps with dogs???”

(He’s a cat dad who is partial to cats only.)

Yes Sir, Bow-Tie sleeps with dogs.

All kinds, all ages, all dogs.

Bow-Tie and Maddie sleeping Big dogs don’t bother me…

…and I’m not bothered by being used as a pillow.

Bow-Tie napping with a dog I am not partial to breed or color.

I love all dogs.

Bow-Tie napping with a dog So please stop the Facebook negativity.

And let it become that yes, I Bow-Tie sleep with the dogs!

Love you all!

Bow-Tie and Annie Sullivan got a present Happy New Year, Everyone!

This is my first message of the new year.

Hope you are all well and happy.

Annie Sullivan and I just got another Christmas gift!

It’s wrapped in a cozy kitty blanket.

Annie Sullivan opens the package Annie Sullivan is really good at opening things, so I’ll leave it to her.

She’s persistent!

Annie Sullivan opened the package See what I told you…

…she got it open.

It’s a great new kitty activity box.

It has a feather outside, balls inside, and a scratching surface.

Any kitty’s dream gift!

The girls enjoy the new toy Courage came running when she heard the scratching and the balls rolling around.

Being the gentleman I am, I stepped aside for the girls.

Mixie plays with the feather Mixie was quite intrigued with the feather.

The girls enjoy the new toy Broshi was attracted by the sounds.

Mixie was a bit selfish about sharing at first…

The girls enjoy the new toy …but then she helped Broshi find out how to play with the balls inside.

The girls enjoy the new toy I think I’ll just take a nap and let the girls play for a while.

Who can resist such cuteness?

Bow-Tie See you next week!

Love,
Bow-Tie

Bow-Tie in his holiday bow tie Dear Friends,

Christmas has come and gone.

I hope you all had a very merry one.

There’s something I forgot to tell you about.

It’s quite exciting for me, so I wanted to share it with you.

Gingerbread village See this beautiful Christmas gingerbread house village?

There’s something very special about it.

Gingerbread village Here’s a closer look.

Notice anything really special about one of the houses?

Bow tie roof How about now?

It’s a roof made out of bow tie pasta!

And the walls are made of bow tie pretzels!

Bow-Tie with bow ties Now, who do you think inspired that one?

I’m not naming any names, but I bet you can guess.

What an honor!

Happy New Year, everyone!

Love,
Bow-Tie
