HoliCat

Well, let's just say that Sylvester likes to "throw himself" into holiday festivities with enthusiasm. As you can see from the HoliCat slide show that accompanies this post, he found himself at the center of most everything. By the way, none of these are "staged" photos. Syl got himself into each of these spots all by himself. I think he may have read the previous post (The Omnipresent Feline) and wanted to prove me right by being in all places at all times while we were celebrating Christmas and New Years'.

Fortunately, Matt (my son) caught him before he had finished climbing all the way up the ladder into the attic where we keep our Christmas decorations. He had reached the 6th rung when Matt rescued him from his own curiosity, and very likely a cold night or two in the unheated attic. Let's just say that an unheated attic in Minnesota in January is not exactly a place of "comfort and joy!" Rest assured, if he had reached the attic, he would have quickly found a place to hide and would have become the Non-present Feline when I tried to retrieve him.

Well, we've all had a great holiday together. Jess (our 20 year old daughter) has been home from college, and Matt had a good week and a half to enjoy his new Wii. Hope you and yours had a great holiday season!

I would say that your comment makes it rather difficult to guess at this point. How about a hint?
