Thread: Nose Crinkles :)

    Nose Crinkles :)

    I don't know if I ever mentioned this before, but I really love kitties. One of the things I love is when they are washing themselves, and they find a spot they feel they need to chew on, and they get that cute little crinkle in their nose while they're biting.

    They wash so vigorously that it's hard to catch a picture of it with my not-so-great digital camera, but here they are:

    Anybody else like nose crinkles?

    I think this is the first time at PT that someone talks about these crinkles.
    Yes -they are too cute- and look a little wild too

    Sorry I don't have pictures of Filou making a cute crinkled nosie

    P.S. Very unusual for someone on this site to love kitties. Glad I finally met one

    Dudley and Sammy are just adorable as they lay there with their little crinkled noses washing themselves.

    You lucky kitty mum!

    I love it when they do that. But when they do that I have a habit of going over and rubbing their nose, Cubby just gives me a dirty look whne I start rubbing his nose when it is all crinkled. Then he has to start his bath all over again. But it's so cute I can't help my self. Every since I was little when we would go pick out a kitten or even a cat, I would reach over and pet their noses, which ever one would let me keep petting their nose that is the one I would take home. I don't know what it is with their noses that I love so much but it's just so CUTE!!

    I LOVE IT when they have crinkles!

    It's a big event everytime Juni does that (although it's is fairly often) and I call everyone to see it. They call me too, they know how I like it.

    I have to take a picture of Juni and Pichu with crinkled noses

    Oh yeah, I am also very glad that I met someone here who likes kitties, it's very unusual for PT

    OH YES!!!
    Nose Crinkles!!!
    I really love to see them on Nellie and the photos of your cats with the crinkled nosies are sooooo cute

    It seems as if they are so enthusiastic with their cleaning job when they do their crinkle nose...and I do love it too when Nellie nibbles at her pawsies...

    CATS ARE SIMPLY DELICATE...aren't they?!

    I also love the nose crinkles! Of course on Tubby it's kinda hard to see because he's all black.....


    And Peanut it's hard to see because she has so many colors....


    Might help if I was a little closer - at least in Peanut's case. Have to see what I can do about getting close-up nose crinkles.

    I love nose crinklies too, except when our cats are concentrating so hard on their grooming that they make slurping noises from their cute little mouths!

    Cute, cute, cute....

    Lily seems to crinkle her nose whenever she's opening her mouth, I never saw a cat with such a crinkling nose before:

    Yes, another word to add to our PT dictionary. We should really post a thread of this dictionary.
