How long is 'a year' to a cat?

 In my January 2nd post, I showed photos of Baby, watching rather sadly, as I dismantled her favorite toy ... the Christmas Tree.

At that time I told her not to worry. After all, next Christmas is less than a a year away!

But when I came down the hallway just a few minutes ago, I found her sitting on top of the pie safe, looking so longingly at where our tree once stood (and probably wondering why Mr. J's doggy bed has taken its place).

At Christmastime, the top of the pie safe was her FAVORITE place to sit when she "played" with the tree (which I'm certain she believes was a toy that had been purchased just for her!)

Poor Baby. Don't worry. A year isn't too long. As a matter of fact, when you get to be my age, a year flies by in the blink of an eye!

So again, how long is a year to a cat? I'm not sure, but I think Baby is camped out here for the long haul, patiently waiting until next Christmas....

... when her beloved tree will once again sit next to the pie safe with all the sparkly 'cat toys'  dangling from its branches!!! You're such a character, Baby!

I'm joining Brenda at Cozy Little House for Tweak It Tuesday
(even though Baby has not enjoyed our 'un-Christmas' tweaking!)
and Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show & Tell Friday.
 

I hope you all have a lovely weekend!!!
