Good boy Quint took up chewing on toys after our discussion on glitter eating last month.

But, it was pretty, Dad! And crunchy.

What we found in the litter box was anything but pretty, young man. No one needs sparkly poop. Crunchy is for kibble only.

And these feathers. They’re crunchy but not like glitter-crunchy.

Give it a rest, son.

All our holiday decor is packed away, including glittery things which, thankfully, we have less and less of every year. Not because an orange and white boy eats them (Pia’s guilty, too), but because glitter seems to have lost its appeal around here. And not a moment too soon, Mom chimes in. Who still invites glitter over for the holidays? C’mon, we’re looking for a show of hands here.

A Scratcher for everyone? © Colehauscats.com

On Christmas morning, we opened the scratcher we saved for and bought for the Colehaus Cats. They had one similar to this about eight years ago and we were thrilled to see that the price hadn’t gone up as much as we’d feared since then. Perhaps as expected, Tessa was ALL OVER the scratcher once it was out of the box and wasted no time whatsoever using it as intended.

Viola however, wasted NO TIME getting into her favorite gift – The Box (gee, could have saved fifty bucks right there), and in fact, did scratch the inside bottom a little. We saved the box just for her and Tessa, well oddly, she’s the only one thus far laying claim to the scratcher. Neither Quint or Pia seem to care. We think they’ll come around to the wonders of cardboard scratchy-ness before long.

    You are such cuties. My niece banned glitter from her house so her daughters craft with it here. No matter how many times I vacuum, the dining room rug still glistens. 🙂

    I love that giant scratcher. And Quint, you need to go over onto it and get rid of frustration about the feathers! You know, you mentioned the Niblets here a few days ago and my mind flew right back to those times. That was when I first met you all…Loved those babies.

  4. Carole Schulman says:

    Tessa, you’re my girl! See if you can talk Quint into some painting. He has been on hiatus as you know.

  5. Rene S says:

    A new scratcher and a nice box? Win!

  6. Beginning to think glitter should be outlawed, no?

  7. Memories of Eric and Flynn says:

    Glitter is not a good thing to chew on, Quint! Feathers are much better.

  8. meowmeowmans says:

    Glitter is not invited to our house for the holidays, or ever, truth be told. 😉

    That Infinity Scratcher is so awesome! So is the box it came in! MOL
