Laboring on Labor Day


Yes, The Cat labors on Labor Day as I participate in this week’s appropriate theme of Labor. 52 Snapshots of Life is a photo challenge hosted by blogging friends Christina and The Lazy Pit Bull. For those who would like to participate, next week’s theme is Feet, a topic that’s near and dear to TW’s heart since she has that paw fetish.

Every day, including Labor Day, I’m pressed into Labor as I pose with products to review or items that TW wants to include in a blog post. Most times I don’t even get treats compensated for posing. It’s obscene and unfair Labor practices, which is why I joined the National Union of Cats and without Affiliate Typists (NUCAT), the cat union started by Austin Towers.


I even have to labor while I’m sleeping. TW has me posing with stuff like these red, white and blue shmousy toys for July 4th. To be perfectly honest, I labor 24 hours a day. Yes, even in my sleep I’m dreaming up ways to bite the peeps topics for upcoming blog posts.

TW has the onions to call me a tough boss and maybe I am. If I have to work Labor Day, so does she. Woman, why should I give you today off. Are policemen off? Are firemen off? Are the New York Yankees off? NO! Quit your jawing and get back to work! I need a Labor Day graphic and make it good!

As for the rest of you:


♫♩Have a Happy Labor Day off from work ♫ … but make sure you’re still attending to your cat’s every need including litter box duty.

Cats—do you have Labor Day off or do you have to pose for a slave-driving human?

  1. Wow, you sure told your boss who's boss! You look determined to have your demands met in that first photo.

  3. Comrade CK I am proud of you and the stance you are taking. The full force of NUCAT is behind you 100% in your fight for justice and treats. AND I have to say as a red blooded tuxie mancat that you look incredibly fetching in that last pic!! ;)

    Happy (non) Labor Day :-) xoxox

  6. It is terrible the way you are forced into continuous labour. If Austin decides to call an all out strike, I will be right behind him to support you.

  7. We can relate, CK. The Mom makes us pose with things all the time - it can get rather annoying, can't it? We think all the kitties should go on strike today - no labor!

  21. The Human did not labor today but her friend did! She swam the Golden Gate Sharkfest swim--1.8 miles in the freezing bay from SF to Marin county. This silly, silly Humans. The Human watched and then she came home and took a nappy with me. We has the HOTS darling. It is cooler back there?
