Quite so!
 
Blackberry has had me scouring the shops today for something different for him to eat! He's got more choice than me now.
 
He seems OK but sleeping more today. I don't blame him as the weather is foul. (sorry Sparrow, I don't like cold wet, windy days, especially when I have to go out in them.) Mind you, I'm very glad it isn't snow.
March is coming in like a lion today...and yesterday was so sunny and mild, and almost warm!!!!! Chloe thought it was nearly Summer and put a skirt on today.

Thank you Jude.
As you can tell,
I have just discovered Photobucket !
This is so much fun,
but I must get back to work.
I'm glad you like my little family
with love . . .

Dear Buba . . .
Thank you for the cudos.
I take a humble bow.
Sandra will be so proud of me too . . .
and yes, Fletcher (Sir Foxwell Fletcher)
does look good enough to eat.
One of his nicknames is "Smudge-a-liscious" .
Thank you for admiring my little lovelies.
I adore them all
with love . . .

Dear Sparrow,
 
Thank you for the pictures of your feline family! One cuter that the other! Do they all try to get your attention at the same time? If so, how do you get any work done??
 
Much love,
Edda
Peace and joy!

In a nutshell Edda,
I don't .
Well, actually I do . . .
there is always plenty of naptime--
mid-morning naps to be had,
pre- and post- lunch naps,
mid afternoon . . .
etc., etc.
I get most of my work done when they are napping.
Fletcher and Sophie are the youngest,
so they are the most bothersome.
Sophie climbs up on my computer desk in front of me
and blocks my view
while she watches the cursor move around.
Fletcher of course likes his lullabies.
Phoenix and Libby are 'elderly'.
Phoenix mostly saves himself for 'his dad',
and comes to life in the evening when my husband comes home from work.
Libby 'helps' with my exercises in the morning,
and spends the rest of the day napping in the basket house or with Phoenix,
wherever he has gotten to.
They are so dear . . .
I love their little faces.
I am so pleased to be able to share them with you.
I feel much like the ladies in the supermarkets
who proudly display the wallet photos of their children and grandchildren
with love . . .

Thank you, Sparrrow , for this collection of wise sayings! The lack of a snooze button is all too
 real if you remember how our cat managed to get me out of bed all hours of the night!
 
Thanks for the smiles!
 
Much love,
Edda
Peace and joy!

Dear Edda . . .
How right you are . . .
a home with a cat in it
has no need of a snooze on the alarm!
 
Ah, so you have found the puddy pictures dear Sandra . . .
I told you you would be proud of me,
and yes, I love little Sophie's 'ankle socks' too.
When she stretches out her feet and toes,
they all separate and look like individual little white balls.
Here is another one.
I call this one 'waiting for supper'.

Yes . . .
truly I am grateful for cats
with love . . .
