Hi everyone! We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop
A little over a week ago I got a wonderful surprise package in the mail. It certainly brightened my day. Back at the beginning of the year, Bionic Basil’s B-Team decided to send surprise packages to the first 10 people that commented on the post. Thank you for spreading joy. I will try to do the same and pay it forward.
Prancie LOVES the mat and doesn’t feel the need to share. Once in a while, Joanie nabs a corner of it.
And they sent an authentic Kraken tentacle. Trouble and Brody have been battling it constantly. The B-team may want to hire them to help battle the Kraken.
I also want to thank Vicky and Carole for the beautiful sympathy cards. And thank you to all who prayed, purred, and sent sympathies for Noel.It is never easy to lose a beloved cat, but knowing others care makes it easier.
We are also joining Sammy’s Poetry Day. Here is my poem to go with this photo prompt..

These are wonderful! 😀
Thank you 🙂
These pictures are super!
Thank you 🙂
That sure is a soft mat! No wonder Prancier has claimed it,MOL!
And we have a Kraken too…
Here, though no one likes it, but if the dogs had at it they would tear it up. yikes!
That is a sweet poem. That little boy reminds petcretary of her little brother, when he was an a wee urchin, he had blond curls too…sheesh, that was like forever ago!
My cats do enjoy the tentacle 🙂 XO
Oh, miss Ellen your poems always makes us smile😸That kraken is so cool, but I’m so afraid of it…don’t ask me why….MOL…Pawkisses for a Happy Thursday🐾😽💞
Thank you 🙂 XO
What a pawsome blankie from Basil and Co!! It looks cozy.
The Kraken tentacle looks like fun too 🙂
Very good job with the poem , it fits well
Purrs,Georgia,Julie and JJ

Basil and the B Team have done a wonderful thing with their “PAW IT FORWARD” initiative….we too were blessed with a surprise package. Looks like your gang is enjoying it too! Love your poem – maybe those two are in love – they look so adorable together. Thanks for playing poetry with us every week.
Hugs, Pam and Teddy
That was very kind of them. Glad you like the poem. XO

Now… do YOU pronounce it “kray-ken” or “crack-en” ?? LOL LOL
I wondered that too about the pronunciation ? 🙂
The surprise package sure brought lots of joy and your poem is so darn cute. Thanks for joining the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!

That package was nicely timed and I’m glad it lifted your spirits. We’ve been thinking of you and purring for your comfort.
Thank you for the purrs. XO

Yes, I am on the edge of my seat, wondering what happens next with The B-Team! Da Boyz love their mat too, even though The Hubby thinks it should NOT be inside the double-wide scratcher. But they love it there so!
Wherever they prefer it 🙂
Those are sure nice gifts!
Thank you 🙂
We loved your poem. It was heartfelt and so cute.
That was so nice of Basil and the B Team. I have ever seen a Kraken before. Is it like get …KRAKEN and grab some treats while you can?

Your reviews and photos are all so fun, and the former informative, for sure. Thank you for sharing and opening your heart. ~hugs~ Best wishes, my dear.
Thank you 🙂 XO
What a wonderful surprise that must have been! Prancie, you look so cute and cozy on that mat. And how sweet that you sometimes let Joanie share a corner of it. Does Gremmie ever try to sneak in there, too? And your poem is so sweet!
Gremmie didn’t get a turn yet 🙂 Thank you 🙂
That was just the sweetest thing our blogging friends did!
It sure was 🙂
Aren’t surprises fun!
That poem is perfect.
They are 🙂 Thank you 🙂
We had to look up what a kraken was! What cool prezzies!
MOL! 🙂
Pawsome gifts and that mat looks like the best place in the house to take a nap.
Purrs & Head Bonks,
Oliver
