A Look Back On Cinco De Mayo ~ And Remembering Ernie

 Petcretary is working today...so we said it would be great to see what we did for a past May Fifth! (And no, we've never done a May The Fourth Be With You, LOL)

So, its Cinco De Mayo...but we have never tasted Mayo..BOL!

Anypaws, here we are, first in a frame devised from some images petcretary put into it...and then the flashback selfies. She looked through all her pics and it seems we have only done this type of photo shoot twice, wow, what a slacker...not that we mind, BOL, BOL!!










And for your pleasure, petcretasry even found one of Angel Pipo!

Sadly we never made any of Angel Minko for this holiday, but here is one of him just because...
Angel Minko has these gourds and one looks like a maraca; that's purrfect for Cinco De Mayo!

Here is a link to a past blog with some yummy recipes for this day:

At Teddy's Tuesday Teaser Class, Petcretary guessed correctly, though she wasn't first, nor was she quick to get to class either, BOL!, She did get this funny badge for her efforts.

Sadly we had to ask Petcretary to make a memento for a dear friend of many years, Ernie of The Island Cats earned his wings a few days ago. May he fly free and be a healthy angel, released from all his earthly sufferings. We send our love and soft aroos to his family, who will so terribly miss him. He will be cherished forever deep in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. You can leave your loving messages of sympathy  HERE if you haven't yet done so.

  1. Such lovely, bright. and cheery celebratory selfies. You really know how to get your 6th o' Mayo on, MOL. Me, eating mayo is as far as we go. A lovely card for dearest Ernie. May his next life be more magic than this.

  13. Well Boys, eating mayo isn't a part of it, so you're good!!! My mom was heartbroken about Ernie. She loved him, and Wally and Zoey. It really is the end of an era. I enjoyed seeing your two beautiful angels today. I need to go way back and see if there are any blogs I can read with them in it. XXOO
