Just as I was responding to Catmandu...

I was writing, admiring Catmandu's seemingly endless cat piles, telling how my cats sit close, but if they touch, I hear: MAAAA, she's touching me!!!!

When, for the first time EVER, my Bella, who was on my lap, went over to Snowy, who was next to me, she groomed him, and I could see she wanted to pile with him.
After much grooming, Bella settled down, their necks intertwined, Snowy still grooming intermittantly. He finally settled. It lasted 5 minutes, until Bella spooked.
Snowy routinely chases her down, even tries to mount her. (but he prefers kittens

) so she is wary of his intentions.

Anyway, it was a brief 2 cat pile. The best I'll ever see here.

Hey, maybe cats mellow with age, like my Dad . . . .

Or maybe they are getting the hint when they see Gary's piles and us "OOOOooo'ing" and "Ahhhhhhh'ing" over them.... I wish the Found Cats could explaine to all the rest of them what benifits there are to piling!

No pictures??!!!

I still maintain that Gary glues his cats together.

A step in the right direction!!

I do think they mellow with age.

NO PICTURE????? Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Yes with Elmer Safety Glue so no harm is done.
Actually the Found Cats have always cuddled together.
I keep the house at 68 degrees farenheit to save on gas and encourage bonding.

Meal time, and I have just mopped the floor.
And thats great news about Snowy and Bella.
We are looking forward to Dynamic Duo Photos.

I can only imagine how adorable that must have been to see even only for a few minutes. Maybe this is the beginning of many more two cat pileups to come. If only they would stay like that until we can turn the camera on!

Yes, I couldn't move a muscle, or I knew it would be instant cat scatter.
Bella is very sensitive to sounds and motion.

If they'd only have a glass or two of wine, they'd surely relax and pile.
