What a great class Madi! I hope you and the others enjoy the recess I have planned.
ReplyDeleteCindy
Woof! Woof! I'm Here ... Golden LAUGHS What a FUN class. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
ReplyDeleteBTW I don't see the blog hop on your post. Golden Woofs
That is such a great class. Piggies learnt so many tricks. I hope they will learn to nap more and longer from now on. Love meeting so many friends too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting us participate.
Sankissjuice
Very informative! We had a great time and we're so glad Princeton behaved himself. (whew!) You are a great teacher Madi. Happy Wednesday from all of us at Prancer Pie. XOXOXO
ReplyDeleteWow Madi mate, you just about got it covered. If I wasn't packing, I'd be joining you for a kip! Deccy x
ReplyDeleteMadi, OMD, that is such excellent information!! I am going to have to take a nap and then try to nap some more. You are a wonderful teacher. You are so good at reaching for the stars. Can you please direct some of the students to my pizza truck at break time?? I appreciate it and please stop by after class, I have a special order of mousatouille just for you.
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
p.s. I hope Puddles(giggles) doesn't have to stay too long writing on the board.
p.s. My Mommy wants that scarf so bad, she already bought tickets for it.
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
WOW Madi, that was one great class on nappin....who knew there was so much to it. It is making me sleepy and I do believe that I will go and take a ZZzzzzzzzzz
ReplyDeletewags
Jazzi and Addi
Oh wow, that was one super cool class Madi. We learned all kinds of new things about napping and we will be practicing what we learned.
ReplyDeleteRight now we are headed out to recess and then grab a bite at Sasha's truck.
We are also super excited that you will be running for mayor of blogville!
Purrs,
Cindi Lou & The Kitty Krew
Me and Simba have really enjoyed the class today. It's the first time I have ever been in class, but Simba says I was well behaved and listened well. I am going home now to practice all I have learnt :)xx
ReplyDeleteBwhahahahahaha...OMD, I so didn't mean fur you to actually SEE me roll my eyeballs. It is a bad habit.
ReplyDeleteCan you gets me an extra step stool and I is gonna sit next to Pip...hehehehe...I promise we won't talk. Bah, of course we'll talk.
Nows when I gets home from school I is gonna test all dis information and sees...I took good notes.
Puddles
May I add a comment, Miss Mad (raising paw)? I find another trick is to pretend to be hard of hearing. Let the humans say your name over and over and just ignore them and keep napping. Works every time.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the booster chair. It's giving me a paw up to the buffet!
Your pal, Pip
Well done Madi we are going to go and find a sun puddle now and get a quick nap before popping over to attend the other classes. Nice one. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
WOW! That was way to much learning for me girl! Think I will just go and take a nap in my Cindrella Coach! See ya later.
ReplyDeleteLovies, Miss Mindy
Fantastic, very entertaining class!
ReplyDeleteWEll that sure was such a good class. We sure are glad that Smoke and Joe didn't try the napping while we were sitting on them. They are pretty darn comfy. Madi, your Mom has been so very busy. Our Mom had to change her undies, she laughed so hard. Well done.
ReplyDeleteSorry I can't take off my hat....I have hat head and then I will look weird....and I don't want Puddles to take my football so I will just hold on to it.... So how do you like teaching? Quite the class you have, my friend! Hey, someone is drinking beer under the desk again....not tattling....just stating a fact....
ReplyDeleteDis nappin class is a breeze. I tinks I will major in nappin when me gets to college.
ReplyDeleteyou are so very talented Madi, this is quite the lecture and tell mom she did a great job pulling this together so you could teach.
ReplyDeleteOMD Miss Madi Ernie and I are gonna try EVERY ONE of these techniques. BUTT furst I gotta take Ernie out to RECESS. He is really excited about THAT beclaws he has NEVER had recess before.
ReplyDeleteTHIS was a WONDERFUL Class. We learned soooooo much. Isn't Classroom Management a Pain Under the Tail? Young'uns today ... have NO Respect. Sorry about wearing our tighty whities to class. I was afraid Ernie would get excited and DRIBBLE.
BRAVO on the SUPER CLASS.
i was interrupted before i read the instructions oh how not to be, and did not finish my comment. i was surprised how many of the class were familiar to me already. and i can see by all these priceless photos of you, that you ARE the right lecturer for this class, you have the nap down really well.
ReplyDeleteI must have been the silent one sitting in the back. Glad you didn't notice I snuck in because I over slept.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend
Sweet William The Scot
Wow, you are so organized!
ReplyDeleteOMC and OMD, Madi! That is the most precise class on Napping!
ReplyDeleteI'm worn out with all of the work Mom must have done writing it!
Absolutely loved the incorporation of all the critters I already know!
Now you both need to rest up after an exhausting post!!
Hugs, Kathy
Madi the level of napping expertise was amazing you are a most excellent teaching on the finer arts that are most often forgotten by lay kittens and dogs.
ReplyDeletePurrs and Headbutts,
Willow
Madi, you´re a purrrrfect Mademoseille!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Continuing education for kitties! Looks like everything is covered. What a wonderful idea :)
ReplyDeleteWe are all so happy we made it to class, Madi. Today's lesson was just pawesome. We have been practicing our napping skills for many years now but there is always more to learn every day. In fact, we are hoping you can hold class very often because we NEVER get lunch at our home, but we truly loved having the lunch break with all our fellow classmates.
ReplyDeletePsssst, Phantom, wake up, please - it is rude to sleep during class.
Woos - Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
We loved your class... who could possibly do a better job teaching about napping than a kitteh... I mean they call it catnaps after all
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are throwing your hat in the ring... you'd be a fine mayor!
Shelle, Milo, Dixie and Newby,

So much information....we tuned in through 'School of the Air'. You make it look so easy....but trying to remember all of that, and put up with HER putting the flashy box in our faces....sheesh! It's a wonder we EVER get in a good nap.
ReplyDeleteLove the Visuals, it makes everything so clear. Thanks for a great lesson.

Ohhh... That was so much fun! I love it. Wouldn't it be nice if we could stretch the way our kitties do?
ReplyDeleteWe thought we were experts in napping. We didn't realise how much we still had to learn.
ReplyDeleteWow, we love higher education!!!
