Great thread, DDM!! What a precious pair...G'Mom and her Duke boy! Add me to the chorus who will be humming that tune ALL DAY LONG! (Never did know the last 3 verses! Thanks Clara!) When my Cody wants a bellyrub, she'll come to wherever am I and "toe pick" (paw at my leg) until I say "What??" Then she plops over on her back, paws neatly folded, awaitng her belly rub. At night, when she sitting by my feet, I'll start to massage her toes and paw pads; her eyes start to close, her bottom jaw drops, her head starts to bob and she nods off...sitting up!

My RB kitty, Satin loved it when her daddy would sing her the "teapot" song. She was a little bit on the short and stout side! He would hold her "sitting" on his lap, taking an "arm" in each of his hands and help her "act out" the words to the verse...

I'm a little teapot, short and stout
Here is my handle, here is my spout
When I get all steamed up, hear me shout
Just tip me over and pour me out!!


Hard to describe...use your imagination!!
