As you can see, Tom is deciding what he can go off and do first
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0001.jpg
He has the whole garden to choose from

Here comes Candy to join in and supervise
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0003.jpg
'I know' says Candy. 'lets have a game of You-Look-One-Way-I'll-look-the-other. I'll go first'
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0008.jpg
more coming...
'okay Tom, I'm not playing any longer. I have my gymnastics practice to do. Just have a game on your own....'
Poor Tom.

All good gymnasts first need to test the equipment for suitability - claws are very effective for this

Purrfect balance is essential
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0016.jpg
as is a varied routine

it takes a lot of skill to pose so beautifully, putting most weight on the front two paws, as Candy demonstrates here
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0018.jpg
And back to the standard position
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0017.jpg
a 180 turn adds variety to the routine
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0012.jpg
now hold that position.........

one more spin, then prepare to dismount

Meanwhile, Tom considers his next move very carefully (awww doesn't he look small in this picture) :D
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0004.jpg
Inspired by Candy's athleticism he decided that tree-climbing would be his sport of choice for the day
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0030.jpg
Oh no, where is Tom, who on earth can find him?? :confused: :eek:

The blackies decide they are nearly done in the garden, but first Candy must inspect the shed. It is a very important job
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0042.jpg
'okay Tom, we're done here. Let's get back inside and see what Max has been up to...'
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0043.jpg
Not a lot as you will see. Poor Max had a traumatic night last night with all the rotten fireworks so is sleeping off his stress :(
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0044.jpg
what a handsome big boy
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0045.jpg

and a considerate one too. He decided his sister needed a bath at the end of a very busy day
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0047.jpg
how cute is his pink-y tongue?
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0049.jpg
'MAX!!! I was enjoying that - why did you stop?? :confused:
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...s/PICT0055.jpg
And Finally, here's one of Max, Candy and Tom resting after what has been, you will agree, a very eventful day. Hope you enjoyed! :D

OH my, my, my. Such beautiful pictures.
The athletic abilities that Candy & Tom have, will sure win them the Gold medal in the Catolympics.
Max, I don't blame you for catching up on your sleep from stressing out over those noisy fireworks and to take the time to give your sister a bath is just priceless.
I truly enjoyed viewing each picture. Candy, Tom and Max are such beautiful cats.
Candy...you are a true virtuoso of the fence balance beam. And Tom...you are a very adventurous and skillful tree cat!
Max, you have some sleep to catch up on, so don't let us interupt your beauty nap. Sorry the fireworks were too much for you.
Happy New Year to you all!
CUTENESS OVERDOSE! awww Max, you really do have the cutest little pink tongue:D
Wonderful pictures, I really enjoyed them. Your Candy is a duplicate of my girl Abby!! They look like the have been cloned ;)
What nice pics! Your kitties are very lucky to have such a nice yard to play in! ;)
Yes, I enjoyed the pictures. :) They sure had an eventful day and are now taking a much needed rest. :) Candy always reminds me of my RB Pepper even though he was a boy. ;)
Such lovely cats! :)
Candy, Tom and Max are gorgeous kitties! They look like they are having a heck of a good time too!
Lovely! Took a while to download all the pictures but worth the wait! Thanks for sharing. :)
P.S. - looked a bit cold and all the trees without leaves! reminds me of Christmases in England in years gone by!
It's Scotland, January, yet sun seems to be shining and no snow? Are you suffering from global warming up there? The cats seem to enjoy it! :)
What a lucky bunch of cats to have a great yard to frolic in and do gymnastic exercises! And, inside it's cozy and warm and one can catch a good nap.
Tom, Max, and Candy, you are quite lovely and we enjoyed seeing you on the first day of the year!!
What pretty kitties! Candy looks like Ebony, an older cat I just adopted from my mom.
My furry pals enjoying the great outdoors. :D Looks like you guys had a blast.Sorry Max wasnt feeling up to the occassion of scoping out the garden,Im sure he would of loved it too :(

Those pictures are really great!
Such cute kitties. I really enjoyed the gymnastics pictures. So funny! :cool:
