2012 – A Question for ManCats
Happy December! We’ve made it to holiday season 2025! For whatever reason, cats just would not look into the camera lens for this year’s Christmas eCards. Sometimes, that happens. Sometimes, they are more interested in the holiday props – how to bat at them, how to bite them, how to knock them onto the floor, etc. Viola displays that same intensity that her angel Mama Zuzu did back in 2016, and so, we went with that.
Miss you, Zuzu.
This year, Quint was just as fascinated, or bored, with the matte-finish ornament balls we used back in 2016. Or maybe it was the Christmas IKEA rats. We still have those, patiently waiting and marinating in a catnip box. This just didn’t seem like the right year for Christmas rats.
For us, December brings Mom’s attempt to keep outdoor Christmas lights lit (she does pretty well), some holiday baking to keep costs and store shopping temptation as close to nonexistent as possible and indoor decorating at a tasteful minimum. We both have overtime work at our jobs coming up and honestly, we’re just looking forward to surviving through the end of the year. It’s been a long expensive one, wouldn’t you agree?
Lastly, we’d love to show you Tessa’s 2025 Christmas eCard, but she just wasn’t having any of it this year. That’s just sooo Tessa!

2012 – Quint’s Art at #NipClub Holiday Bazaar Today!
All of us here at Colehaus Cats wish our U.S. readers a Happy Thanksgiving Day tomorrow. Quint, for whom every day is a holiday, has already dived into his favorite dinner – Fancy Feast Chicken and Liver Classic Pate. And he’ll enjoy the same thing tomorrow with a pinch of dried chicken and catnip flakes on the side. We’re pretty sure he’d take that over baby Brussel sprouts or green bean salad any day.
What also comes at this time of year is Mom’s annual cat roundup for holiday ecard photos. Oh boy. Much like last year (and previous years now that we think of it), the excitement was . . . well, underwhelming. That said, two willing victims volunteers came forward and Mom got a couple of photos to work with. Look for those soon. And a couple of bloopers, too!
Here’s a sneak peak. Naturally, Quint tries to destroy the props.
Because of reasons (mostly to do with Mom’s job), we’re taking Friday off from blogging and will be back Monday December 1st with our Christmas ecards, including those that didn’t quite make the final cut. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving and a safe weekend!
