MY FAVORITE "THING"
My favorite "thing" goes everywhere with me. Should we call it a toy? Maybe, tho sometimes Mom calls it my "dress" because of the way I wear it! It didn't come from a store, or from online shopping, it's sort of made-up from other old toys and other "things". But I love it. It has a crinkly-Humpty Dumpty on one end and I've been told Humpty once belonged to my Angel Sister Zoey. The colorful part used to be a wand toy that neither me or Mom liked, bye-bye wand ... with other "things" tied inbetween the knots on it. Then an old rag got added and made it longer and funner. Of course, there are spring toys, too ... and a chewy pretzel at the end you can't see! Mom waves it high up and I try to catch it and then Mom drags it on the floor and I chase it or hangs it over something and I fight with it awhile to get it off that something. You know, homemade toys are the best. They don't cost many pennies or can be repurposed from old stuff. She says we're going to make our own "shell" game soon ~ wonder what that is? This will still be my favorite though! It's just a "thing", my favorite "thing". Do you have a favorite "thing"?
PS Beaumont is not allowed to answer that question, we all already know that Beau has one very special all his only his no other THING will do and it's awesome and loved and it must be near and close at all times and preferably in his mouth unless it is mealtime and if you don't know what that THING is then you really haven't visited Beau enough, and we're not telling because we really think everyone in the whole wide world does know Beau's THING. Bye, Beau.
Awww Monday
That looks like a really fun cat toy. Sometimes the homemade things really are the very best! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome "thing," June, and all the better because your mom actually made it! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteoooh we can not wait to see your new favorite thing... we have such a thing too... technically thing(s)... buffalo horns... but they have a horrible smell and the mess we make with them is from 7th hell... but we love them ;O)))
ReplyDeleteOh yes, homemade toys are always the bestest! My fleece tug is sorta like your toy, Juney, and I ask mom to tug with me all the time!
ReplyDeleteThat toy looks like a lot of fun! I have something similar. ~Ernie
ReplyDeleteThat's a pawsome one of a kind toy!

Syd and Mackey don't play with toys much but the Porties all loved toys and we still have a house full waiting for someone to play with them.
ReplyDeleteAt least you have a favorite thing to play with. It's good and it brings you comfort and your mom comfort too. You sure are beautiful, June.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. ♥
My favorite thing is sunflower seeds but the life expectancy of one around me is very short.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea, I hope your Mom doesn't mind if I steal that idea June. I love the photos on the right sidebar btw, they are lovely.
ReplyDeleteYou are super cute with your favorite thing sweet June!
ReplyDeleteWe can tell you are really enjoying that toy, June.
ReplyDeleteYay, I have two comments from you today. It worked. WordPress often doesn't shot the comments right away. Could that be the issue? Anyway, thanks for trying and it worked. ♥
ReplyDeleteNope, not the issue I'm afraid. It persists in using (and I can't over-ride it) and email that is NOT mine and not correct, and my gravatar/image is not included; before is posted a "turtle" gravatar. Still trying to delete it all. Sigh.
DeleteYes, we too cobble together stuff, to make new stuff, Junie!
ReplyDeleteManny will play with anything, but CB prefers the Neko Flies toy that is so beat up, no one can tell when the thing is anymore.
YES you know Beau very well. His other favorite thing is not a thing but a WALK with mama.. what a great idea for this dress/toy. and you deserve a blue ribbon for Most Photogenic. you always look so beautiful and cute. The Weims twins have a new favorite thing, wait til you see what they brought in the house
ReplyDeleteThat is a very special toy indeed. XO
ReplyDeleteYou are way too cute, June, and the way you play with your fave toy is sweet! I used to make toys from old socks and stockings for our kitties. Or little bits of cotton, made into catnip sachets. I still cannot find the one I made for our first kitty...maybe when we ever move...yup, as if!
ReplyDeleteYour thing is great!
ReplyDeleteHee! Hee! Your favorite toy is splenderifirous! I bet you and your Mo can think of many things to do with it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing is my Ratty! He used to have fur and a sqeaker. he was from a dog wand toy that a furrend gave to Cinnamon. I, Marv LOVED Ratty and I chewed and chewed the rope that tied him to the stick until one day he was free! I carry him around at night and I sing to him. Mom has mended him a zillion times and I think he is more embroidery thread than what ever he was to begin with. Mom got me a new Ratty and I won't touch him. Nope only Ratty for me! And WE know what Beau's thang is! Cinnamon has one of those, but her green ball is her favorite.
Homemade toys really are the best, and it sounds like yours has some special memories attached to it too! Absolutely adorable :)
ReplyDeleteAny toy that gives you fun and joy is the perfect toy!!! Misty has a Humpty Dumpty toy that she absolutely ADORES!!! And yes, we do know all about Beau and his special toy:)
ReplyDeleteWoos - Lightning, Misty, and Timber
That looks like fun. Pocket's favorite is a red toy, and River's favorite is Mommy
ReplyDeleteNobody around here seems to have a Thing, and SissyCat says if she sees someone with a Thing, she wants it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a very cool favorite thing June!
