Enjoying the hot weather? Cats know how to chill..........

The UK is enjoying a wonderful hot spell. While we all rush out and feel the need to go places, often sitting in our car for a long time to get there, our cats take it easy in the garden.

Billy rested under the tree shade on a "lookout perch" I put up recently, they like the higher view.




Pinkie however, likes to lounge on the rotary washing line. So much for clean clothes eh? And how on earth is that comfortable? She hangs her belly through the line, and lazes for hours. In a cat world it must be more comfortable and we perceive it to be!







And Ruby likes nothing better than to play, whatever the weather. Here she balances on a piece of wood, she's such a delicate little one.

All in all they relax, take it easy and generally have a fine life.

And us, we work, we shop, we clean, we rush around, we try to squeeze in a little bit of  'r n r', when we can.
There are days when I would happily swap places with a well cared for cat!

Getting obsessed with my cats!

Or maybe that should be 'Getting obsessed with taking photos of my cats'.

The more I use my camera, the more I want to use it. not that it's a particularly good one, or even that I'm particularly good at taking photographs, it's just that lately, I see something and I run for my camera. My camera is a Kodak easyshare CX7330, which is a couple of years old, and certainly only suitable for a novice. It'll do for me for now.

Today I looked into the bedroom and saw Billy, Ruby and Pinkie sleeping on the futon bed. they looked so adorable. Ruby on the end, curled up in a ball, Billy in the middle stretched 0ut, and Pinkie up the other end on a fabulous fluffy cushion. Since I put the futon down as a bed, Pinkie never wants to come off it. She will go for some food and straight back to 'bed'. Lucky cat!

Here are the pictures I captured, of their cozy moments:

The only photo I got with the three of them in, as Ruby then ran off to play. So here's Ruby cleaning herself, Billy very comfortable, and you can just about see Pinkie in the background.

This is Billy very relaxed and lounging!

Just look how his paws are 'begging'.

Pinkie is just so relaxed on her favourite cushion!
