Our Cats' Christmas 2012



Ghost Christmas morning

The following photos are snapshots of our cats Christmas morning. Due to the bad weather coming in Christmas Day here in North Texas, we celebrated Christmas with the family Sunday Evening so that those who had to travel could get on the road Monday before the rain and snow made it too treacherous.  So Christmas morning the cats had the house to themselves!

Merry Christmas !

"we do need a bigger rug..."

As the days grow colder (and to be honest, it hasn't been that cold), the cats tend to huddle by the Aga... except for Molly who only comes into the kitchen when she wants cream. Other than that, you can find her either in her own bed or on the sofa curled up on an afghan.

But the others... well, you can see where they spend a lot of their time. Actually, it's partly because I'm in the kitchen baking so much these days. They tend to gather where we are. If I'm cooking, they like to be underfoot (ever try to cook or bake leaning over 5 cats to get to the hob?). If we're in the den watching TV, they're there.  If we're in the bedroom, they're there. I guess we are a chummy bunch.

Here's a picture I just took of Molly today 'by the Aga'.  But she isn't interested in sleeping there, just guilting me into giving her cream.
