Dear Friends,

I hope your year has gotten off to a good start! I’m sending you lots of hugs and kitty kisses this Valentine’s season.

I hope to see you at our Your Feline Valentine event today, February 15, so I can shower you with affection in person. The event runs from 12-4pm, but the first hour is reserved for devoted sponsors like you! I’ll also meet new potential sponsors and friends from 1-4pm, when the event opens to the public. (Of course, you are welcome anytime during the event!)

I love these special events. There’s nothing better than getting attention from my people, except maybe eating. I plan to fill my belly with chicken treats, then pose at my window and use my good looks to lure in all the visitors. Once they’re under my spell, they’ll be unable to resist my charms and will fall madly in love with me. 😊

There was a big football game recently—something about a Super Bowl. Personally, I think of a Super Bowl as a giant bowl that will supply me with lots of chicken-flavored gooey morsels. But the kind humans tell me it’s some kind of game where people throw around a ball that looks like an elongated sphere and tackle one another. So, I got into the football spirit and rooted for our local team named after a bird of prey, and they won!

We’ve had a few nice ‘stroller-riding’ days, so that’s added to my joy these last several weeks. We’ve also had some cold, snowy days during which I cuddle with my people indoors and take power naps.

We’re halfway to spring – a time of more abundant stroller rides. I am counting the days and dreaming of all the butterflies I’ll chase from my stroller and outdoor pen. My life and my health are equally stellar, thanks to your support.

Thank you for all the love and friendship you provide. I’m so lucky to have you. You make this beautiful life possible for me, and I am forever grateful.

XOXO,
Anka
