"R-E-S-P-E-C-T...Find Out What It Means To ME!" #NationalRespectYourCatDay

Hi all it's Cody!! Yes, yes, yes, I KNOW that ALL of you are going to say that cats should be respected EVERY DAY and YOU ARE RIGHT!!!  Respecting cats shouldn't be just one day a year at all, I couldn't agree more! But because March 28 is a historic day for me and my feline friends, today is the day that was designated as National Respect Your Cat Day because allegedly,
 on March 28, 1384, Richard II of England forbid the consumption of cats. Why anyone would want to eat a cat anyway is beyond me, but I digress...

So, in honor of this momentous occasion and as a reminder to my Mom EVERY DAY, here is a little somethin' somethin' which will hopefully get through to my Mom for something that SHE does that I take issue with,  AND make YOU laugh!!! My deepest apologies to the late Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin for taking some liberties with the lyrics to RESPECT.  (We loved Aretha and she would have turned 76 on March 25th, 2019 if she hadn't passed last year, August of 2018. I am thinking that hopefully Aretha wouldn't have minded this post)








Kitties what kind of EXTRA respect do YOU need shown to YOU today!!! I know we are shown respect EVERY DAY by our humans, but we can always use MORE!!!

Discuss!

Love, 
Cody

  12. Cody you are spot on. I would add that the humans should respect that we can choose to stop liking a certain food anytime we want without reason or explanation. Don’t over analyze it and don’t moan about it under your breath while opening the third new can 😸
