Friday Felines

I tend to make a big deal about Burton being the main character in the sewing room. And while he’s definitely involved – I think Lemmy may actually beat him for hours “on the job”

This scratcher is in the sewing studio, just to the right of my sewing machine (Burton’s bassinet is to the left of the machine). And if I’m at the machine, you can pretty much guarantee that Lemmy is in the scratcher.

In fact, with the exception of bed time, Lemmy is almost always within petting distance of me. If I’m in the gardens, he’s keeping an eye on me from the catio. If I’m cooking, he’s hanging out in the kitchen to see if I’ll share any scraps. if I’m painting, he’s usually on chair beside me. If I’m working he’s almost always in the office cat tree beside my desk. If I’m knitting or stitching in my chair, he’s either in my lap or on one of his cardboard scratchers on the floor in the living room.

But when bed time rolls around… he’s with Dave. He sleeps between Dave’s feet pretty much every night. He comes to me for a little scratch, but as soon as I stop petting him – he’s back to Dave’s feet.

Such a funny ginger shadow.

    He’s your on duty guard kitty. My dearly departed Hoover was that way. More like a dog than an aloof cat. If I took a walk through the woods he would follow me every step of the way.

    Such a great picture of Lemmy. He remembers when you rescued him and he loves you both forever for it. I do believe that animals remember things. Our George was like that, more dog than cat. He’s been gone 17 years and I still miss him and think I hear him padding around on the floor at night. Lemmy is such a sweetheart and I agree with velane4, he’s getting BIG!

    Blessings and love,
    Betsy
