Not one to miss out on anything, Viola “joined” in on the “fun.”
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Well, it’s getting to be that time of year. Yep, booming explosion time yet again. Already, the noise in the middle of the night is awful. We’re not going to even complain how we’re NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE FIREWORKS AROUND HERE ANYMORE BY CITY ORDINANCE because:
1) We’re outside of official city limits, just barely however.
2) The police have enough on their hands without rushing out here every five minutes or so that some idiot one lights off something at two in the morning.
3) Who wants to complain when they can hide out in a cool, dimly lit fort for ten days with treats and toys and with Mom reading cat books and Dad with the red dot?
We’re taking the rest of this week and next week off to focus on remaining relaxed and calm over the fourth of July week. And to keep things watered and wet outside because we’re in the middle of a long, long drought and personally, we’d miss our flowers and house should someone set the surrounding fields and greenspace on fire this year.
Have a happy and safe Fourth of July. See you Monday, July 9th!

We are in a fire zone, and this year people are pretty serious about NOT wanting fireworks anywhere near us. I’m pretty glad about that, but we’ll see how it works out next week.
Hee hee, great expressions!

I expect it will be bad this year as we have had a lot of rain, so no bans in place.
We love the facial expressions of Princess Newton has in the photos. Those eyes are just so beautiful. Hope you have a great 4th celebration and hope the fireworks don’t scare the little ones. Thanks for the share.
oh they do NOT look amused! I keep wishing they would pass an ordinance here but they haven’t. Obviously with what you are going through it wouldn’t do any good anyway!
Wishing you a happy and safe 4th!
They are all unthinking and selfish really. Sorry to be so blunt.
Miss Newton, You are beyond patient. Not one of us here would allow such nonsense. Everyone stay safe and quiet in your for and enjoy your vacation. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer
Tis the time of year I wish I had ear phones that played CATS all the day long
Hugs madi your bfff
You guys put up with a lot from your humans. We hope the boomers aren’t too bad. We’re sure the noise will start around here this weekend. Most of the time it’s not so bad but….
Whoa! Humans think they’re so smart when they put stuff on our heads for a laugh. Newton doesn’t look one bit amused. Stay safe from the boomers. We don’t have many but every year someone or another sets their yard on fire with one of those things. We’ve already had one.
MOL, these photos are the best. Hope you have a nice (and quiet) break!
MOL, y’all don’t look too happy.
You could make a book of these things on cats- and puzzles too 🙂
Have a relaxing time off. I think your humans need it after putting all those stuff on your head!
Miss Newton, you are SO patient and tolerant. And Viola, how nice that you joined in on the, er, fun.
HAve a good break. We hope it somehow turns out to be quiet and peaceful.
Hugs!
I don’t like stuff put on me.
You were looking very patient Miss Newton, but not so much towards the end.
Oh, Quint! We want to share that awesome fort with you! Fireworks be durned 😉
You’re so patient ! But your face is telling us the story, MOL ! Purrs
That is some serious patience, Miss Newton!
Angel really hates loud booms, so she’ll be under the dresser for the next few days!
