Kitties on a rainy Kenutucky day...

[catcrazylady]

I decided to take some very good advice from Debbie (Sirrahbed) and spend some time with my furbies. I'll sort out Mr. Magoo issues later.
Here in Kentucky on Derby Day it's raining and nasty. My guys had their "Run for the Cat Chow" early this morning and are just hanging out now.
Peanut Butter, Stubby, Lucky & Maggie Sue are allowed outside on weekend mornings only. About 5:00am I let them out then the heavens opened with a downpour!

Here is a wet & disappointed Peanut Butter



Sammy is bird watching


Lucky is just hanging out (boy he hates the camera!)


Pete "STRUTS" for the camera


Pervy is doing tongue and body aerobics


Suddenly Pepper Jack finds a BUG!!!

This creates some excitement!

Where did it go?!

A seriously out numbered bug!


I'm afraid the bug soon met it's demise. Poor Bug!
Stubby and Maggie were off in some secret sleeping spot and missed all the excitement.
Well that is how our Saturday morning has gone so far. Kind of boring huh! The only excitement for the morning has been a BUG!

[sirrahbed]

Doesn't sound so boring! If you are a cat on a rainy Saturday morning, I suppose a BUG is a mighty exciting event!!! My three are all in windows - also batting at bugs!! No rain yet but it is coming!!!

Lisa, I just LOVE your beautiful kitties ..... I just wanted to climb in my computer and hug big wet Peanut Butter! Thanks so much for cheering me up in my gloom!

Awww, what some grand pictures! I loved the one where they are all looking for the bug. I wonder what it looked like from the bug's point of veiw? They are all such beautiful babies.

Thanks for those wonderful pictures!

How come some cats are let out and some aren't ??

Shame for them to miss there morning treat, maybe it will be better weather tomorrow

PIF-Peanut Butter, Stubby, Lucky and Maggie Sue were much older ferals when we got them in so they spent many months outside. They never got over that and will swing from the curtains if they are not let out. It has taken me years to finally wean them down to weekend mornings.
We have a small neighborhood park right behind our house which was recently refurbished. Lots of big new play stuff for all the kiddo's but because of that traffic has also increased. My fear for these guys is great but I give in to them early weekend mornings because there is virtually no traffic during those hours.
We got Sammy when we lived in an apartment so he never went out. Leroy used to go out until he disappeared for three days and came home terrified. He didn't want to go out again for awhile so I took advantage of that and just stopped him all together.
The last three were pretty young when we brought them in so they are used to not going out and don't even try.

My dream someday is to screen in our large covered front porch so all the kitties can feel like they go outside.

Ahh, I see.

Yes, my herd swing off curtains if I keep them in too

It is always hardest to keep the new cats inside whilst letting the others go out.

Aww! I just want to bury my face in that big blob of wet Peanut Butter fur! Cat huffing?

Tsk! Huffing is much better when done on sunwarmed dry fur!!

I have to agree with Debbie! Sun warmed dry fur is more pleasant! I got a big wet Peanut Butter hug and I did kiss that wet fur and it took me ten minutes to get the hair off of my mouth!!! It really sticks when it's wet!!

I always lotion up and vaseline my lips before I go to bed....try huffing with vaseline on your lips!!!

[catcrazylady]

WELLL!!!! What could I do?? I was all ready for bed...and there was that big fluffy orange belly on my pillow! I couldn't resist! I didn't even THINK about the vaseline!!!

[catcrazylady]

!!! OMG !!! I love that picture!!! I really understand what happened now!! I would have dove right into that belly even if it was soaking wet and I was covered in tar!!!
I have to go find Peanut Butter right now and rub and huff his belly!!!

I must admitt I really enjoy this forum, it suits this melowed out grandpa just fine!..LOL, is this what "huffing" is all about? I like to put my ear next to the calico and listen to the jackhammer sound purring away...I bet Spring has sprung back East Catlady from Ky.? I have a PC wallpaper that shows my sisters yard last spring. Red Bud trees, Apple Tree's bloom'in. Miss it!!
