I appreciate your concern, but I just let him bite/lick it for the photo op. But I do agree that actually feeding him full portions chowder or crackers would be very bad. I feel my gatos much healthier proper cat food. The photos are just silly. 😹📸
Same as any other day: feeding gatos and watching Jean-Luc.
As for Charlie Kirk, you’d be amazed at how little I care!
Cinco de Mayo commerates the Battle of Puebla. In the 1860s, the French took advantage of the United States being distracted by the Civil War and invaded México. The French were very pro-Confederate at the time. They planned to use México as a supply line to assist the Confederates. On 5 May, 1863, a rag tag group of Mexican soldiers defeated invading/occupying French troops in an embarrassing defeat. This stopped the French plans to support the Confederacy and fueled a Mexican insurgence to drive out the French and return them to Europe.
In the early 20th century, a group of Latinos in Texas (Mexicans, Guatamalans, Hondurans, etc) wanted to celebrate a “Latino pride” sort of day. Ironically, they chose Cinco de Mayo since it was an unknown, never celebrated holiday that wasn’t country X’s independence day. And it took off from there.
Mexican here. Cinco de Mayo commerates the Battle of Puebla. It’s widely celebrated in the United States and not celebrated here. It’s really more a Mexican-American thing.
There are 32 states down here and only one, Puebla itself, has the day off. As a resident of one of the other 31 states, it literally was a normal day at work for me.
This.
This were just silly photos. I didn’t let him eat any appreciable quantities of anything.
