The only time Lucy is mellow...

Just waking up from a long nap while we've been away for the evening
Lucy, for once, is mellow.
Her head fur disheveled and mussed...
Her eyes groggy as our entrance wakes her.

It's obviously been a long comfy snooze
Since she's hesitant to stir
Despite my standing over her taking photos.

Lots of stretching...
A yawn or two...
Lazy, content kitty.

Lucy and her Carmex

I usually don't post videos (opting for photos instead), but I really wanted to share this one.

Our weird kitty Lucy LOVES Carmex lip balm. Every night before we go to bed she jumps up next to me and wants me to get out a completely spent tube of Carmex I keep in my nightstand. All she wants to do is sniff it and rub on it like it's catnip.

The other night she got a bit vigorous with her rubbing... and ended up regretting it.

Enjoy!

Instead of "breading" the cat, we prefer "Abe-ing" the cat. It's far more dignified.

Don't know what "breading" the cat is?

DISCLAIMER: We think breading isn't a very nice thing to do to a cat. However, "Abe-ing" Dee Dee for this photo was something she thoroughly enjoyed. She sat and watched me make the hat while Hubby narrated to her what I was doing. She was quite excited to get all the attention. I cut out spaces in the brim of the hat for her ears, so she was unfazed once we set the hat on her head for a quick photo shoot with the iPhone. She's such a diva that she loved being cooed over.

We know winter is not far away

When a pointy-nosed energetic kitty

Takes time to stop her playing and cavorting

To hunker down on a warm lap

Under a fuzzy blanket...

We know winter is not far away.
