One Lump or Three? and a birthday . . .

[lavendertook]

I want to wish a happy belated birthday to lanning! I hope it was a good one. I wanted to post this sooner, but as you can see, it's been a very busy time around my place . . .



Whoever designed the cat bagel is a genius and hero among catkind. Saki, Moo, and Tuxie all adore them. However, Saki loves, loves, loves being gifted a new cat bagel. When I brought in a new one for her--her Chanukah pressie--I showed it to her and she immediately got up out of the old cat bagel she was sitting in there, without my prompting, and waited for me to pick up the old one and set the new one in its place. Then she immediately climbed into it, purring loudly, and curled up, and nuzzled my hand. I've never met another cat who was so happy to get new things and express such pleasure and gratitude for them. (-:

And yes, that is my laptop seat in the middle. Even now, I am typing from the center of this very formation of snoozing guard cats. You could probably knit a sweater out of the amount of cat hair that must be under my keyboard . . .

They all look so happy. Great photo.

Snoozing is happiness. (-: Thank you, hon! (-:

I have never heard of the cat bagel! Looks like a hit, all right.

oooh, I need to get some of those for mah kitties, who deserve all the cuddling in the world for being good companions to me! ;D

[jan-u-wine.livejournal.com]

do they make them for two-footed, relatively hairless, bigger-than-a-hobbit-but-smaller-than-a-big-person? cuz i would like one!

What a sweet picture! Cat bagels seem to be remarkable things. :)

Pippin would love one of those bagels. I'll have to find her one.

Those cat bagels look wonderful ... And your kitties are well behaved enough to use them! Mine scoff at official kitty sleeping devices lol.

So cute! And a cozy spot for typing! I recently got the kittens a cat bagel for my desk. There will come a time when they both will not fit comfortably in it at the same time, although they may not mind. They seem to enjoy squishing together.

That is one of the coziest pictures I ever saw. Three snoozing kitties, all curled up in their cat bagels.

[claudia603.livejournal.com]

heh, another comment -- looking at that pic reminds me of how much your two kitties in that pic resemble my two kitties

They're actually called cat donuts. Petsmart and Petco carry them. Petco has them on sale for $5 every now and then.

Well, you don't see my lap there either, right? :-P I missed you! We need to do lunch or dinner sometime soon, yes? Arundel Mills by BWI airport is probably the halfway point between us. Or catch a matinee of The Hobbit sometime.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

I think they will give you unanimous agreement on that. Though they may be like baranduin's kitties and spurn them, just on principle.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

They make ones for big doggies that might fit us. it would be nice to put a fleecy rim all around one's bed, wouldn't it? Though it would make it that much harder to get up.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

They do take to them, my 3. I have them all around the apartment in choice spots--they rotate their favorite spots over time.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

They actually call them donuts, and have them for dogs, too, at Petsmart and Petco, though the bigger kitty ones might be fine for the Pip.

Mine are very happy little capitalist consumers. Impressed with the cat condo and all the toys in it, Tuxie foreswore the scary outdoors, refused to walk out the open door, and moved in for good when he was a little feral kitten and still wasn't ready to be petted. There are no clean, fluffy cushions in a state of nature.

I want to see more pics of your pretty new kitties! And tales of how they're getting on with Emmit. You're holding out! (-:

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Cozy is their special magical power. (-:

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

They really do. Now you need a cow kitty for your third! (-;

[jan-u-wine.livejournal.com]

i guess we better make sure we won the lottery, then, before we lay little selves down!

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Such are the realities of all of us who are not furry and cute enough to be pets, alas. (-;

[jan-u-wine.livejournal.com]

lol....even those of us who are furry and cute may find that age doth change the bestowing of the bagel.....

only in Shakespeare's world is

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.

ah, Willie, boy, you do know how to turn a lovely phrase.....

[voontah.livejournal.com]

I've certainly been taking a million pictures of them! I did finally post some tonight.


Here's the two of them squeezed into their new donut. They look so grown up here! I think it's the lighting. :)
