I do NOT spoil my cats!
This afternoon I decided that I should wash the sheets on my bed.
However, when I went in to strip the bed, I saw that my cats were on it. I decided to wait a while. Every time I look, one or both of the cats are on the bed. I still haven't stripped it to wash the bedding. That does NOT mean I spoil my cats! ;-) |

I do NOT spoil my cats!
Well it's getting cold here and everyday since Friday I have gone out in a thin jacket and I'll be doing it again today.
Thursday night I forgot to hang up my warm fleece jacket and Bonnie has taken to sleeping on it and she looks so snug I haven't the heart to move her. This is DESPITE the fact under said fleece jacket is a fleece wearable blanket (Our heating is on the blink and anyway I'm trying not to turn it on to save money I look ridiculous in that and fluffy slippers but who is here to see me now? Apart from the cats and they're not fashion critics) so it's not like I am condemning her to sleep on a hard cold floor (Spirit prefers to sleep on the kitchen floor but even by cat standards she's weird) but I just don't have the heart to wake her up and push her off my jacket.

It's still very warm where I live but I definitely understand not wanting to run the heat (or in my case, air conditioning) unless absolutely necessary. Jill |

Many a time I've picked up a sound asleep Buffy from my desk chair because hey, I want to use the computer and that's the only chair. I don't carry my computer around with me. Buffy, that really is *my* chair! She sleeps pretty soundly. I gently pick her up and talk soothingly to her. She sort of grumbles a bit but if I cuddle her and talk soothingly she pretty much doesn't care. She'll go back to sleep if I put her down in another one of her comfy spots. Or not... so what if she wakes up? Jill |
