I love Christmas. It’s my favorite holiday. The problem is that most of the time, I’m alone. My children have moved away, and now it’s just me and my cats. What can I do to cheer myself up for the holidays?

Dear Kitty Blues,
Well, if there is anything that Henrietta LOVES, it is CATS!
That being said, you are not alone. Your pets are your companions. Let’s find a way to give you some joy in the holiday season!
Christmas is the perfect time to create a photo collage of your furry friends for your holiday card! But that being said, getting a great photo of your felines is no easy task.
Here’s what you need to do:
• Get online and buy costumes for your favorite felines. If you have never shopped for cat costumes, this is your lucky day. If you love your cats the way that I do, this could keep you busy for at least a week. OMG.
• Gather up all your pet’s favorite treats, toys, laser pointers…anything to grab their attention for the perfect photo.
• Call one of your pet-lover friends for help with the photo shoot. Choose a buddy that has snacks and plenty of drinks. By the way, those are for you…not the cats.
• Now it is time to take some pictures. Get creative: Scrooge Kitty, Santa cat, or kitten in a stocking. Try an ugly sweater, a reindeer costume, a Christmas tree, whatever you can imagine!
So there you are! Problem solved. I hope this helps, and Have a Merry Christmas!
Enjoy your holiday!
Love,
Henrietta
