Straw Hat Cat-Style

Straw Hat

I wear it when it’s hot,

I wear it even if it’s not.

‘Tis my favorite hat

I always wear it when I go out.

When I am in the sea,

Or even when I am not

I will always be seen

With my favorite hat.

When I wear my favorite red vest

Together with my favorite blue shorts

My favorite hat will look its best

Though it’s still good with any clothes.

I am my hat,

My hat is me.

If I am to be without my hat,

Then who would I be?

Until the rightful day

That my promise be fulfilled

I shall keep it safe

On the top of my head.

---Lawrence Basallote

Do you know that today is Straw Hat Day? I didn't, until I got an email from my furiend Ann Adamus from the blog, Zoolatry, inviting everyone to pawticipate!

Here is info about Straw Hat Day directly from Ann:

"As "bestest" we can figure out, Straw Hat Day has been celebrated for about a gazillion-bazillion years mebbee (well, at least since like the 1920s) ...
when the men put away their wooly winter hats and donned their summer straw chapeau in honor of the warm weather!
(and who isn't ready to welcome warm weather this year?)

And no reason at all that the ladies can't do the same!

Around the pet blogosphere, Straw Hat Day has been celebrated since furever."
