Today is Thursday, September 26. It is Remember Me Thursday, the day to light a candle for the pets lost in order to shine light on the pets waiting to be adopted.
You can light a virtual candle online, on the event’s page, here.
We have decided to put our metallic cat to use: he is holding our candle today.
Kitshka was momentarily intrigued by what the metallic cat was holding.
Please be very careful with candles around kitties (or the other way around). Do not light the candle without it being out of reach of kitties (I know it sounds evident but I’d rather remind it).
If it seems to you that the candle resemble a little cake, you would be right. Well, it’s not a real cake put on fire! My silly human realized too late that these fantasy candles were the only ones she had. But all in all, it is like offering a treat to a kitty, so I think it is okay.
And on this day, we, kitties and humans in this house, are thankful that we have found each other.
Purrs to all.
Hi Texas! I think that little candle is purrrfect in Mr. Metallic Cat’s arms. We lit a candle today too in memory of all the animals who never knew a safe home in their lives – We hope lots of people honor the day by adopting and saving an animal!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Here’s to all the candles lighting up the lives of many animals waiting in shelters…

WE remember. Nearly 10 years now we’ve been candle free. Thank goodness that battery operated candles were developed, now we can have the look but not the worry of lit candles.

Me and mum like your cat holding the candle. Mum has lit three candles. one for Eric, one for all the cats,horses and ducks who went before and one for all the animals in shelters who never got their forever homes.
I was a shelter cat…but I was one of the lucky ones…I found a furever home. We’re purring for all those that weren’t as lucky as me.

It looks like a truffle candy! We lit a virtual candle cos TW and Pop weren’t home last night. We’ll offer some more candle safety tips. Keep candles away from the window. The wind might blow the flame into the drapes or uphostery.
