Thankful Thursday: Features & S’mores!
We’ve had a couple exciting things going on this past week, and exciting things are definitely things to be thankful for!
The first thing we are thankful for today is the blog Pawesome Cats. If you don’t already follow them, you should! Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, I was contacted by Tracy at Pawesome Cats. She asked me if she could feature Sophie on one of her “Cat of the Week” posts. Of course I gladly said, “YES!” I love sharing about Sophie – any chance I have to raise awareness for cerebellar hypoplasia and share Sophie’s inspirational story, I take it! After answering a few interview questions about Sophie, her feature was posted. (I’m a little late announcing this, as the feature was posted last week – please forgive me.)
You can read Sophie’s feature by clicking here. How neat! Thank you, Tracy and Pawesome Cats, for featuring Sophie on your blog – this means the world to us!
*Spoiler alert – there is a super cute video of Sophie included in the feature, so you should definitely check it out! 🙂
The second thing we are thankful for is the pawesome s’mores maker Sampson won on his Cat Scouts Quest a couple of weeks ago! He won a challenge for his Patrol, and for that, he received this:
At first, I thought that it was just this virtual picture that he won – a pretend s’mores maker. But then a package came in the mail with Sampson’s name on it…
Sampson: A box? For me??
Caster: Why do you get all of the presents, Sampson?
Delilah: Well, it WAS just his birthday…
Sampson: This is MY box, Caster! Get off it!
Sampson: Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better… a box in a box!!
Mom: Everyone seems more interested in the boxes than in the s’mores maker…
Caster: Uh, Sampson, how does this thing work?
Delilah: I think I’ve got it!
Sophie: I’m just going to stand back here while you guys figure it out…
Everyone: NOM NOM NOM! Delicious!
(Don’t worry, I didn’t actually feed my cats marshmallows or chocolate. They had treats 🙂
Well that’s it for tonight! Another big thank you to Tracy and Pawesome Cats and to the Denmaster and all of Sampson’s Cat Scout friends!
That s’mores maker is pawsome….thanks for bringing it to the Campfire tonight.

No problem! I hope you both helped yourselves to some delicious s’mores!
We saw that post about Sophie and it was spectacular. We highly recommend it to anyone who missed it. That s’more maker is so cool. Mom is wishing Mau would win one in the future. It’s always so fun when the humans get something they can use and the kitties get their favorite thing as well…boxes. It really is adorable how they all gathered around to see what was in the boxes. Glad the kitties got treats. Special nose-kisses to Sampson from Astrid. We think he’ll be really proud of her when he sees our Sunday post.

Seriouslies, a SMORES maker? WAY cool! We hear nip smores are pawesome!
We just tried Smores for the first time when K was here over the Spring Break when she made them for us. They are very sweet but yummy! Have fun with your lovely gift and the boxes! 🙂
the critters in the cottage xo
We can’t believe you just had s’mores for the first time! You must have enjoyed them tremendously!
Does that mean the cats are going to make the chocolate and marshmallows for you from now on? 🙂
What a neat prize. Guess it was for the humans and the box was for the kitties? The kitties got the better deal. Boxes are a great prize! 🙂
They LOVED the boxes 🙂
I love how everyone has to help unpack the box.

Bet Pop could find a use for that smores maker. MOL! Boxes are the best gifts. BTW, how come every time I come here, I have to fill out the name/email/website thing? Usually they remember the info.
I’m not sure about why the site doesn’t remember your info, CK. We’ve had another reader ask about that too, but I don’t know why it won’t remember. I’ll have to check into it
Samson, we think it’s so cool you won the s’more maker. It’s really gonna come in handy at the Cat Scout Campfire.
Whoa–that is one fine present! All those BOXES! Smore maker? Phfft. Gimme the BOX!
