Cuddle Caturday

Standard

Brrrrrr………….we continue our VERY cold streak here AND while we did get some snow Friday afternoon, it didn’t start until it was too dark for Mom to take photos!!  But this is what it looked like yesterday before the second batch of snow started…………..Misaki – I’m posting this for YOU and for all you other pups out there (very few cats I think) that LUV snow!

Not a WHOLE lot but enough for me!

Not a WHOLE lot but enough for me!

It will be a Cuddle Caturday around here due to the cold.  Mom and Dad aren’t leaving the house (so they say) which I suspect might be true because there’s ice out there – everywhere – sneaky ice – the kind you’re not sure is really under that layer of snow or not so WATCH OUT!

I think I can handle cuddling……..you know me…….always ready for a good cuddle………..not too many of us aren’t – right?

I entered my photo in Hutch A Good Life’s Valentine’s Photo contest.  If you don’t know about the contest, you’d better go over and check it out!  I’m not telling how I “dressed up” for it but you’re supposed to send in a photo for “Most Romantic Figure”……well, what’s more romantic than a mature ginger snugglebug???  Hmmmmm????  😀 😀 😀

Happy Caturday!

  1. We got another couple of inches last night…I’m loving it! But my mummy says she’s sick of it and is hoping the weatherman is right and the snow will be replaced with rain by tonight which will get rid of it all bol. You look lovely and snuggly even I’d give you a cuddle looking like that 😉 wags and sniffs Toby xx

    • Hi Toby! You got more snow huh? Well, we got a TINY bit more than you can see in that photo but only a bit so it’s not nearly enough to sled in even (so says the neighborhood kids who look a bit disappointed!). They don’t have snow in our forecast again because it’s supposed to warm up again next week into the 50s. I hope you have a super weekend…..my Saturday’s starting up rather nicely with the smell of bacon wafting through the house! YUM!

    • Hi Mollie! Yep – bacon Saturday and cozy by the fireplace too. I tried to go outside this morning with Mom – she couldn’t believe I’d asked her to take me but it was still dark and I didn’t know any better so we bundled up and went out. I was out there for about 20 seconds, turned around and came back inside! I’m no dummy!

  2. Extra cuddles from me today! It took us 4 hours to drive 100 miles yesterday afternoon! We ended up getting less than 200 miles from home in over 6 hours because of that white stuff! Don’t like snow and ice on the road! Hugs, Linda

    • Oh Miss Linda I hope you can get where you’re going soon so you can get off the roads…….of course the further south you go I guess the better the roads will get but BE CAREFUL PLEASE! Thanks for the extra cuddles – I can ALWAYS use those!

    • Hi Miss Susan!! How’s that newest little addition to your house doing? We’re all staying inside and enjoying the fireplace this weekend. It’s bitter cold out. This morning it appears we got very little additional snow overnight so even though there’s not a LOT of it, it’s TOO DARN COLD TO BE OUT IN IT PERIOD!

      • Great – all the more cuddles for you then 🙂
        Baby is doing fantastically! She is such an incredible personality. Sabre is still not sure but did nearly consider having a game with her, which is remarkably early for a cat to accept another, don’t you think? Then again, last night he seemed to have decided he’d had enough and refused to come inside. We’ll just have to wait and see. I’m really hoping the get on well as I now cannot imagine adopting her out to anyone else.

        • Sabre will eventually realize Baby is no threat. If he almost played with her that’s a BIG step in the right direction! He’s probably just doing a bit of pouting hoping for some extra attention but it sounds to me like things are going to work out………..now if Jangles would just come back and enjoy the fun all would be happy again…………

          Hugs, Pam

          • Indeed. We are still looking. We shall not give up on her. In the mean time, I’m actually pretty impressed with the way Sabre and Shadow are coping with a newby in the house. It certainly looks like all is going to go well. Have a fabulous day!

  3. Your mom and dad are smart not to leave the house, Sammy – it’s been way too cold! Allegra and Ruby are happy that they’re indoor kitties, and are getting ready for a weekend of snuggling, too!

    • Hi Miss Ingrid! Your girls are smart to just enjoy their sunny windows and window seats since we’re into this incredibly cold spell. Have you had a lot of snow yet this year? As you know it’s been a bit “spotty” in Virginia – some of us get it and some don’t. Hope all of you ladies have a SUPER weekend!

  4. Good morning, Sammy! That picture of the snow is sure pretty! But I love the one of you snuggling on your Mom’s lap. Romantic, INDEED!
    We got snow too! I’m looking at it from my nice, warm window seat!

    • Sunday you enjoy snow, rain, wind, EVERYTHING from the “best seat in the house”. You’re also much safer inside than outside kitties. Even though I do go outside, I PREFER being inside. Stay warm!

    • Hi Bailey! Ice can be VERY dangerous….sometimes you really just think it’s a wet patch/puddle but if it’s cold it could be ice…..then you get those ice patches covered with a thin layer of snow and you don’t even know it’s there AT ALL!! Very sneaky stuff…..I’m making sure my parents are INSIDE all weekend. More nap time for me!

    • Hi Miss Pix! We’re heading into the mid 50s next week…..very weird……our snow is almost melted away too – amazing just being a few degrees above freezing can do it – I DO NOT MISS IT THOUGH! 🙂

  5. Good idea to stay at home… I’ll bet your romantic picture is fabulous… I’m pondering about an idea….but without some inspiring ice-cream my brain is on strike…Have a cuddly caturday ;o)

    • Hi Easy! Well a guy like you shouldn’t have to try TOO hard to do a romantic photograph – you’ve got the girlie dogs panting all over the world and I should think one of those centerfold shots you’re famous for (with the butterflies of course) with you all surrounded by roses and candles, etc. ought to do the trick. 😉 As for my romantic picture – well – it’s actually more CUTE than romantic. I can do CUTE easier I think!

    • Aren’t you glad you can STAY HOME when it’s this cold? I know I am….Mom and Dad do quick errands but they ALWAYS say when they come back inside the door “YAY – we’re home!!”……I can’t blame them!

      Happy Caturday!

  6. Looks like we got about the same amount of snow as you, Sammy. But a cuddly Caturday with the extra of bacon sounds like my kind of day!! 20 seconds is 20 seconds too long to be out in that freezing cold snow!!

    • Hi Miss June……yep – you’re right about that 20 seconds – it WAS too long to be out there and that’s why I high-tailed it back to the basement door this morning licket-split!

    • Hi Miss Katie and Cocco! I intend to stay warm….which means of course staying INSIDE. Our snow is melting – we got above freezing and there was a bit of sun earlier so a lot of the snow is gone. YAY. Has Cocco been in the snow yet? Wonder what the little dude thinks of that!

  7. In here he have a perfect sunny day, high 60’s, wearing shorts and a tshirt, walking around and enjoying the free afteroon, you would enjoy laying under the sun with Doggy on the balcony, even tho Doggy stinks, he rolled on rotten oranges. I’m not touching him, let alone cuddling, he stinks.

    • Oh my goodness Mr. Leo – that Doggy guy does get into some interesting fixes doesn’t he? Rolling in rotten oranges – freelance gardening INSIDE the house – he’s a bundle of stinky fun! Shorts and t-shirt??? High 60s??? I guess we have a few months until we can do that stuff. Say – did Doggy find a date for the Ball?

  8. You are such a cuddly kitty, Sammy.I hope you are warm and snuggly all day. Sneaky ice is the worst kind. Plus when I was out with Mom, the snow was burning my feet, so she had to pick me up for a few minutes, before I could walk home.

    • Oh Cupcake you be careful with those tootsies of yours! That snow is SOOOOOO cold and our little pink toesies aren’t used to dealing with “adverse conditions” (so says my Mom). I’m glad you were able to hitch a ride with your Mom to warm them up!

    • I know! Mollie and Alfie think maybe somehow it got here by mistake….they also said Misaki who lives an hour away from them got snow and Mollie and Alfie didn’t so maybe it just accidently didn’t come down their street……hmm…..a conundrum.

  10. We actually had nice weather today! The giant pile of ice at our backdoor is almost melted and the snow shrunk. It packs down when it melts. When it gets cold again, the other snow is fluffy on top. We now has 3 layers. That means there will be lots of avalanches in March and April.
    Yous looks so very cuddly Sammy. Can mes comes and cuddles with yous?
