Furry and fluffy
Funny and cute
Eats all the biscuits
Steals all the loot
Cunning and sneaky
I call him beaky
Gets his nose quickly
Into deep sleep.

Cat boxed
You can’t see much-
But he’s in there!
Hidden and snug
Illusory emptiness
From his black hair
Turned up exposure
Won’t give him away
Snug and hidden
He’ll sleep all day!
Cat out of a box…
I wanted to take a cute photo of my cat sitting in a box on the kitchen counter but he will keep jumping out when he sees me! (he wants a love). So this was the best I could get. A couple of months or so ago he was having treatment after being lost for eight days. He finally came home with tarry oil on his coat and an ulcer in his eye and damage to his mouth. That’s why his tail looks a funny shape, I had to cut off some fur because it was so matted and the substance on it would have continued to poison him.
Now he’s perky, his fur is growing back, he’s leaping up on the kitchen counter again and playing with his toys. He’s happy and so I’m happy too. X
Wish I was
Wish I was a warm fussy cat
Snoozing on the chair
Tucked up nice and snug
Feeling really very smug
Basking in warm air!
Wish I was a happy little cat
Eating till I’m full
As I’m feeling very fat,
I’d rest my paws and head
Sleeping on the bed.
Wish I were a contented cat
Dreaming of chasing mice
Never having to hunt for food
Playing with my catnip toys
When I’m in the mood.
Cat flap fixed again…
Oh dear! When I got up this morning I found the clear flap part of the cat flap and it’s surround on the floor inside the back door. Clearly our big cat had come through and must have got it stuck round his belly. Luckily I fixed the flap last week so I know which bits to press on to open it up and re-fit the flappy part…. I tried to adjust it… He’s just come back in. Seems OK at the moment, but I don’t want to have to keep putting it back together again!
Through the catflap
Golden eyes through the catflap.
Staring through a cat window
Looking for warmth
On a cold bright day.
Staying outside
Because another cat
Is staring out
Looking at the sunshine!
Hidden
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was hidden, my cat likes this little igloo type cat bed. When he snuggles down in it he is almost hidden from view. It’s well insulated and nice and comfy. Felt pen drawing. It’s only a small drawing but I enjoyed doing it.
Two cats together
One on my knee, one on the arm of the chair. My two boy cats sitting almost nose to nose. They are quite tolerant of each other, and this is the closest they have ever sat together. It asted half an hour, both snug and warm. This is not photoshopped they were about three inches apart. So pleased we got the outside cat to join the household especially at this cold time of year.
Cat carving
I know there are better carvings, but I really enjoyed creating this. We didn’t have posh carving tools, just a few knives. I’ve seen pumpkins where just the outer rind is carved away so you get a shallow relief effect. I like it but I guess you would have to use clay modelling tools?
Apparently wild animals can eat the remains of the pumpkin once its been use for decoration. I don’t think hedgehogs like them though? I’m not sure feild mice would like one carved like a cat? Anyway it was fun to do. And it works as a ginger cat, X
Cat, shut the door!
It’s cold, there’s a draft from the back door. I could shut the door, but the cats come and go. A paw to pull the door open, or a nose to nudge it from the other side. Result? The door is open about 8 inches and the cold draft gets in. But we are told we need better ventilation because of covid19 so I suppose I shouldn’t complain. I wonder how difficult it would be to put a cat flap in an internal door??
Cats are very clever, but they don’t know ‘how to put the wood in the hole’ (a way of saying shut the door). I guess they have fur coats and can curl up with their nose tucked under their paws or tails. I just wish they could shut the door. Maybe I could put a magnet on a collar and get some sort of mechanism to make it shut, who knows? I’ll just get up and push it too again…
