Weekend Cat Blogging: Hannukah
For this holiday edition of Weekend Cat Blogging, we present some of our images from Hunnukah, the Jewish festival that concludes at sundown tonight. Our menorah, not surprisingly, has both musical and modernist elements, with a band of musicians behind the candles.
As one can see, this was taken on the seventh night, which for a variety of scheduling reasons ended up being the main night on which we were able to celebrate. Luna received her gift, a blue fish toy – it is our personal tradition that designated Hannukah gifts have to be blue.
She seem to quite enjoy this toy, and immediately took to batting it around th floor; and play hunting with it by pushing it underneath the table and then pouncing on it. I was able to get some videos of her play:

It looks like Luna had a great time with her present! Our Mom loves your table. Is it one piece or three?

It seems that the blue toy was the right choice

Love the menorah, with the blue candles. I wonder if anyone has a menorah made from old synth parts?

Sniffie’s Mom: The table is a single piece, with three separate glass surfaces on a single chrome base.
I got it several years ago at a store in Berkeley. It’s a favorite of ours at CatSynth HQ, and has appeared in many posts.

I love your menorah – both aesthetically and for the fact that it expresses your personality.
Luna looks well chuffed with her fish

Happy Hannukah and best wishes for the new year to you and yours.
