Today's chore was to make candy wreaths for friends and family. Of course the kitties were there every step of the way to help me in any way I needed.

Of course Abby and Pouncer were up front and center first

But Harry quickly joined the party. He was SOOO cute. He kept picking up pieces of candy and carrying it away in his mouth. Of course when he did that he RAN off the table and I wasn't fast enough with the camera.

So many things to check - are the colors sorted properly? They had a ball taking individual pieces out of the bowls and batting them around on the table.

Pouncer didn't like the kittens batting the candy around on the table... so he left

Allen checked the finished product

And so you can all understand what on earth I was making: The complete wreath

And lastly...
After everyone had enough of candy, they decided to torment Allen on the scratching post.
Get that tail Abby!

Its so funny, I can completely picture each kitty coming by and having fun with the candy. Our Sami steals anything in plastic and RUNS with it too. I'd have to lock Sami or myself up if I attempted making those.

They are so cute! Are they very hard to make?

There is just something irrestible about hard candies to cats. I think it is the crinkly sound that the wrappers make that makes cats just go wild. My mom's Midnight loves to play with Root Beer Barrels....we find them everywhere in her house.

Great pictures and the wreath came out great.

Kim the candy wreaths are so CUTE!! I don't care how much candy you put on there though because it could never be as sweet as all those little helpers you've got there!!!:) :) :)
