I’ve mentioned my cats on here before but haven’t posted any pictures. I’m not sure why. They get into everything else. Closets, the way, trouble. Both are males, Pedro is 7 and Fuzzles 8. They are the best of friends – except when they are fighting.
They like to assist me in my various endeavours, such as making the bed, preparing tuna sandwiches, and particularly with my embroidery and sewing.
Pedro, in particular, is eager to help.
Fuzzles isn’t as interested in the domestic pursuits and spends a good portion of his time sleeping. In fact, he climbs into my bed moments after it’s made.
I like how their bodies make a kind of heart shape in this one. (Please excuse the messy bed. I am actually allergic to cats, so I always put a sheet over the bed so that I don’t have all their hair on my comforter and sheets. The big lump in the back is the stuffed pig with which I sleep.) I really don’t have many pictures of Fuzzles because, unlike Pedro, he gets more involved when I don’t have a free hand to take a picture. One of his favourite tricks is to come up behind me while I am sitting in my chair and reach up and poke me in the back. This means that it’s time to stop what I am doing and pet him.
Their approval is necessary for everything I make and everything that comes in or out of this house is inspected by them, as is everyone!

Loved reading your post…The photographs are very nice as well….Pedro is a good boy and Fuzzles appear more relaxed and laid back…..
I love cats in any shape and form…

Thank you for your comments on my photographs! I’m always afraid that they aren’t very good. The cats are actually the other way around. Pedro is the laid back one and Fuzzles the uptight one. Fuzzles just spends a lot of time in my room, instead of in my work area.
I know what you mean – branston and hobbes are best mates apart from when they’re fighting as well.
Branston has just decided he wont eat the treats tha I got for free, he onlywants the dreamies that I pay for
Naturally. He knows a good thing when he sees it. Pedro will eat anything I give him. He is even excited about his own food when it is hand fed to him. And he loves treats, but he gobbles them up so fast that I have to give Fuzzles his treats around the corner and then dole out Pedro’s one half at a time, otherwise he’ll eat his own and then go eat Fuzzles’ as well.
~nods~ we have to feed braston and hobbes separatey, otherwise branston would starve – theres a reason that hobbes’ nickname is fatrat
Fatrat! That’s great. Love their personalities.
Cat’s are the best! They don’t drool. So nice to see yours in your post. They are lovely.
no, cats drool, trust me, they drool
Thanks, Alice. I think they are great, too. And mine don’t drool, but I’ve met some that do!
Your kitty-friends are very cute. We miss our Cosmo but he had to go and live with our son and d-i-l recently because DH has developed a violent allergy. I miss his ‘help’ in the sewing room!!
Thanks Magpie (I don’t know what else to call you!) I really love having them around, even though one of them knocked a teapot off the top of the fridge at 4:30AM the other morning.
“Tremendous article! I really appreciate the depth and clarity of your writing.”
