Time for this month’s Spoiled Rotten Cat Box. Let’s see what’s more interesting, the box, or the contents.

I think we need a wee bit more nip to get Elvira interested. 🙂

In the mean time let’s see what the kitties got!

Cat Grass Plus for an indoor garden of their own.

Pet Greens Semi Moist Roasted Chicken, Deep Sea, Salmon, or Turkey. I think we got the Deep Sea variety. So loving that these are made with 100% organic wheat grass and that they’re free from gluten, corn, soy or artificial crap.

The post cards for this box were absolutely beautiful!  Here is what one of them read:  Find Nature’s Fireworks

The bright glow of starry summer nights brings ever more life to this vibrant season.  Take time each evening to sit in awe of the sights that nature surrounds us with and reflect on how truly lucky we are to see them.  Tend to what your soul needs; acknowledge the connection between the beauty that surrounds you and the beauty that is within you.  Celebrate your freedom to always chose what’s best for yourself-by following your heart, you’re sure to experience all the fireworks nature has to offer
