2012Their Favorite Places
I thought today we’d visit a few of the cats’ favorite spaces, aside from the cat tree. Pumpkin will sit like this, hanging over your arm, while you work on the computer. He purrs lightly and will often drop his chin down to rest on your wrist. (I like that last photo of Pumpkin because he looks like he’s up to something sinister.)
Atlas claimed the back of our BCC (big comfy chair) when he was just a wee kitten. He is the only cat that lounges there and if he’s not hanging out with a person or another cat, he can be found there, tucked between the back of the chair and the top of the cushion.
Morn is usually on someone. If however, he is not on someone, he’s on the cat tree, or he’s stolen your seat. He’s a ninja like that. You can’t get up to do anything or he’ll suddenly have been just where you were sitting. And he’ll look so comfortable you’d think he’d been there for hours. And then of course you don’t want to move him, so I suspect that’s his plan all along.

My cat, Squirt, does all of those things! She likes sitting on my lap or on the top of my chair while I write (and procrastinate… and stuff). She also likes napping underneath the end table in the living room, and under the covers of my bed.
Are your kitties related? Sometimes I wish I had sibling kitties, because then they might get along better. Yours look like they get along pretty well. We have two and they fight nonstop. Squirt is older and was here first, and Apollo refuses to acknowledge that. Sigh.

Haha, Morn sometimes tries to sit on your arms while you type, which is something he used to do as a kitten and it was fine then, but he’s now 10lbs so it doesn’t work out so much anymore, haha.
Our cats are not related. They are about three years apart each. But we took extra care in introducing them to each other and one was always a kitten, so it was easier on the cat who came before. Introducing two already adult cats can be challenging sometimes! It took Atlas and Pumpkin a few months not to be scared of each other and now they are cuddling every second they get. Sometimes it just takes time. =)

If I could sit between the back of the chair and the cushion like that I totally would!

Hi, Sara! Someone on LJ linked me to one of your hair tutorials, and I found myself spending a couple of hours reading through your blog from the beginning up to this post (there are plenty of other things I should be doing, but oh well!)! I just want to tell you how much I love your blog, your photography, and your cats, and I will definitely be trying some of the recipes you’ve posted! I may not comment too often in the future, but I’ll definitely be reading!
Sara
Erin thank you so much for taking the time to comment! I really appreciate comments like these- it’s nice to know that someone is enjoying what I’m sharing.
Lots of love from me (Morn, P & Atlas too!)
