    Tubby Purring

    Tubby purrs like there's no tomorrow, and the good news is I finally got a video of it. The bad news is I had to hold the camera so close to him in order for it to record the sound that all you would see is a black screen. The good news is, by accident I learned how to add audio to video, so I got a video of Tubby getting tummy rubs and I dubbed the purring onto it, so what you'll see is tummy rubs and what you'll hear is Tubby purring up a storm.

    Disclaimer: this is somewhat of a false video because the audio was added to the video, but in reality, Tubby was purring like this while I was rubbing his tummy, I just couldn't get the audio and video at the same time, so it's really not a false video - if you know what I mean and I think I'm making this waaay too technical.

    On my computer I have to turn the volume all the way up to hear the purring, so if you see Tubby but don't hear anything, check your volume.

    So, without further ado, here's Tubby with his motor running like there's no tomorrow.

    Wow, Tubby really does love getting his tummy rubbed! And what a loud purr!

    Honestly whenever I try to rub Grover and Stubbys tummy, they want to play and it ends up being a wrestling match.

    Great Video, Debbie.

    Oh, and one more thing. Tummy rubs are a relatively new phenomenon with Tubby. All these years it's been more of a "if you value your hand keep it away from my tummy" sort of thing with Tubby. But I would say just in the last two years he has slowly started allowing me tummy rubs. Now he actually seems to enjoy it and lifts his leg to give me better access.

    And just try and write Tubby and tummy a few times in a row without having to back space delete and retype.

    Thanks Debbie. It's just what the doctor ordered for me. Another one to save for those bad days.

    RUB RUB RUB RUB RUB PURR PURR PURR PURR PURR

    Kisses to you Tubby. I see your new job title to be "Purr Manufacturer".
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
