Christmas Gifts

“What are the humans up to now, Oscar? They are getting these little socks down from the tree.”

“I do not know, though they keep looking at us and laughing. This cannot be good for us,” sighed Oscar.

The humans placed 3 very small Christmas stockings on the floor, each one of them fat and full of goodies for the kittens. Schottzie was the first to approach, sniffing cautiously at first before sticking her nose into a stocking as far as she could get it.

“Hey, what is she doing?” cried out Olivia. “She seems to be very excited about some old socks. Oscar? Oscar?!?”

“Mmmpf mmm pfff yummffff”, mumbled Oscar as he too stuck his nose into one of the stockings on the floor.

“These stockings are delicious, Olivia, you must try one.”

Olivia carefully approached the last remaining stocking, first tapping on it with her paw, then sniffing carefully.

“Ooooo that smells delicious!” yelled Olivia. “And these are full of toy mice! So this is what Christmas is. These humans have done very well with this holiday.”

“Sure”, mumbled Oscar. “Christmas is delicious."
