Half On/Half Off

So, it's no secret that our felines have to stop and bathe whenever/wherever the need strikes.  Our old gal typically plops onto the carpet in the living room to do her washing, but once or twice now I've managed to snap a few photos of her half on/half off my her chair on her way across the table to the other chair.  Apologies for the poor focus, but consider them "action" shots of our bathing beauty.




Gee, thanks dad.  Next post I'll make sure mom gets me a few pictures of you in the shower.  Bet you'd love that, huh?


The above photos were from a while ago, but I just had to update this post by adding these last two that I literally just took only minutes ago of the old girl.  I was buzzing around in the kitchen, getting ready for work and looked over in the living room to see her sitting there, staring at me as if saying "come on dad, I'm waiting for you."
Guess I didn't need the flash...

Cleo, it looked to me like you were taking a mighty fine bath. Only asked kitties can take a bath and maintain our balance. Humans could learn a lot from us. And oh yes, no hot shower for us kitties. Let the humans have the water. Precious

That was a good and thorough bath and an even better raspberry you gave your dad.

Cleo, we think your dad just wanted to show how talented you are. It take ssome serious skills and balance to do that half on/half off bathing!

Leah said...

Highly skilled grooming on the go, good for you, Cleo!

I don't understand why humans think the things we do or the way we sit are weird. We're cats! We'll do exactly what we want whenever we want! ~Ernie

WE're sorry to be so late commenting. #1's going to Pris on Tuesday made her discombobulated. Anyway, you are right, Cleo. We cats have the privilege of washing whenever and wherever we want. And never mind the hot water!

Purrs,
Tama and Benny
