I've got my calaveras collar on!
This is our altar this year. All the cats who came before usand Mom has had the company of cats continuously since 1975!are honored here this time: Eddie (2007), Sophie (2004), Cowbell (1994), Bing (1991), and Little Brother, a left-behind outside boy my mom took care of until his disappearance (1989). There are toys and crows and treats and stuff for their spirits as they come back to earth on this special day.
Hi, other kids! Hope you enjoy what we've set out for you. Now, isn't it time for dinner? This time change has us all waiting again!
I love that collar! Happy Day of the Dead. What a marvelous tribute to all those who have gone before.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tribute! Such a great thing to do.
ReplyDeleteIt's always proper to remember the ones who came before, for we will see them again someday.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea, that those who came before come back to visit on this day. You alter and necklace are lovely.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I was trying to type "your altar"
ReplyDeleteWilliam, we love your alter. Especially the crows, very cool. Thanks for sharing the photos, your skeleton necklace is pawsome. Purrs for your departed brothers and sisters,

Happy Dia de los Muertos! I love your calaveras collar. Your altar is wonderful. I remember Eddie. I didn't get to know him well, as he went to the Bridge shortly after I started blogging.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very very lovely collar! Just love it!
ReplyDeleteOoo! What a pretty collar William! Mommy thinks you alter is really nice too! She says "What a lovely idea for Las Dia de los Muertos!"

A nice way to remember those who came before you.
ReplyDeleteLike you, we had to wait a whole extra hour to be fed. Changing the time, as it affects our schedule, is not good.
A very nice memorial to all the furkids that came before.
