Today is Labor Day, a federal holiday first recognized 128 years ago to highlight the achievements of the US labor movement and the rights of workers. Labor Day caps off a three-day weekend marking the end of summer.
What are your plans for Labor Day?
“Lots and lots of napping. I’ve been getting by on a paltry 14 hours a night all week.” – Jimmy, 7, couch warmer
“Nothing special. I’m just going to relax and kill a few insects.” – Tilda, 12, window sentinel
“CHECK IT OUT MY SHADOW MOVES!!! WATCH MY TAIL!! MY TAIL’S SHADOW MOVES WHEN I MOVE MY TAIL!!” – Fluffistapheles, 3 1/2 months, kitten scientist
“First of all it’s labour, dear chap, and it puts ghastly ideas about slacking off in the heads of our bipedal servants. I plan to studiously ignore it, particularly because you Americans celebrate it on the wrong day.” – Alastair, 3, British cat
“What’s labor?” – Marshmallow, 5, professional napper
“Why? You plan to tell me what I can do? LOL!” – Apollo, 10, taste tester
Pain In The Bud 
Alastair’s owners should have put a gold satin bow on him, to match those eyes.

Spunkmeyer: “Yes! It is evil! The only way I control my humans is flashing my teeth and stretching my paws with my claws gleaming and they are very obedient! I do have some trouble not being able to go outside except in a barred space they call my “kitty condo”. And they gush over me all of the time and pet me and well, I didn’t train them to do that but it is ok! They aren’t bad for humans! And I have this awesome scratching post outside (in the condo) that I use so I don’t really scratch on the furniture. But without claws I don’t know how they would be!”

Let’s see: Midnight avoided taking his medicine by avoiding me. Blinky tried to avoid his medicine but ended up taking it. He shredded me for my troubles … ouch. Rip is blissfully unaware he’ll be taken to the vet tomorrow for a check-up.

A cat’s labor is unappreciated! It seems that everyone I speak to who doesn’t own a cat, has issues with mice. They are the ultimate organic pest control.
