Sadly I missed the opportunity to take/post a picture of several of my cats being very cosy. Awww

To set the scene we have had a builder around today, who spent most of the day plastering our back utility room ceiling and boy does it look so much better than it did.

Because the nice builder was in that room which had the cat flap in it, apart from Milly whom I had both let out and in the front door I had not seen hide nor hair of any of the cats.

So once the nice builder had left with some of our hard earned cash and left us with a lovely smooth ceiling with no holes, I went in search of feline company.

Annie of course is still hiding under the corner kitchen cupboard which she retreats too at the first sign of any person who is not Deckchair or me.

When I reached the hall by the stairs, Tigs cantered past me Murrping at the top of his voice. In our room I found Sandy at the top of the cat tree and on our bed in a neat square I found Bramble, George, Milo and Spot. It is amazing how they might have their spats with each other like kids but when they are upset they seek the same space and seem to take comfort from each others company.

It always surprises me when people refer to cats as solitary anti social creatures. Our cats activitely seek out each other to play, play fight and to groom each other and when upset they are usually found together...surely this is proof that not all cats are anti-social !?!

Look what my mum found for me...swaddling blankets website.


I have not done any research on these yet, so I have no idea if these items are currently mums best friend or the devil in linen but I like the idea of naturally calming a very young baby.

But what colours do I buy ? Pink, Blue, White or Yellow/Aqua !!!
