Andy wants to know. Is it “kitty food time”? His caved-in tummy thinks it must be.
“It’s past ‘kitty food time’, Andy. I’ll round up the human.” And he does!
Later, after breakfast, Dougy returns to the ottoman for a sprawl. Andy found his own private nirvana: Food is good! His tummy’s bulging out like a milk-fed kitten’s!
I’ve finally caught up with you again, Doug, Dougy and Andy! Good to see you and the boys again. Nothing like a good meal, the cats say!
That is a nice site of Joel Sartore’s you mentioned a few posts back.
Yes, Joel Sartore’s wildlife photography is amazing. He’s one of Nebraska’s treasures, and he and his family live in Lincoln. I was really pleased when his work started showing up in National Geographic, the one magazine I always renew.
A full tummy = a happy kitty 🙂
Andy and Dougy say “meee-YOW”, which, as you know as a cat person fluent in Cattinese means “aaaa-MEN!” Ha!
doodz ! lezz we iz a sleep; itz all wayz food time round heer !!!!! 🙂 ♥♥
The kitty boys have a similar thought process!
You can always tell what time it is by the look I get
Pets have their ways
Andy stares at me till I sense there are eyes on me – creepy! And Dougy assaults me by walking on me, swishing his tail on my face, and kneading me till I react. (The tail swish usually is the thing that makes me give in!)
Our Marcus cat is the one who does most of the walking on me, and he is no lightweight kitty! 🙂 Nano just sticks a paw in my face, and Lucio drools. The three of them together are relentless. It’s the girl cats who sleep in. 🙂
LOL! Oh dear! I feel blessed only one cat tortures me till I wake! I always seem to have the cat that walks on me, sticks his butt in my face, and kneads me till I give in.
The late Louie the ginger kitty and Dougy used/use that method. Louie also used to stick his face right up to my face, and the whiskers tickled me awake. Both cats purred/purr while doing this.
I don’t know if it was happiness to see me awake or sadism, but it was/is effective!. On the other hand, when Dougy wants to sleep with me, he’s really sweet: he wraps his whole body around my arm. He’s done that since he was a kitten.
It seems they can work as a team on important matters.
I’m glad I agreed to take both kittens almost six years ago now because they are best buddies as well as brothers!
It is good to know you made the right call back then.
Yes! They are a delight most of the time, little pains in the butt others, but I enjoy having them in my life!
I could see that his tummy is huge…
Most of that is fluff, but he does have a bit of a tummy! (Their veterinarian says they are the right weight for their build and age, which is important the older they get.)
