Friday Night Mews-ings...

Tallulah has become fascinated with the cursor on my computer screen in the past couple of days...


She's good, though, she touches the screen very carefully with her claws retracted (thank goodness!)...



I wonder if she recognizes Leo on the screen...

~

When one of my "Angel Kitties" (if you don't know about them, look back at my post from March 23rd...), Muppet, first came to us (she was dumped downtown behind my husband's shop...) and we were at our first vet visit to make sure we weren't dealing with FIV or anything before bringing her home, there was a poster with a cat face in the examining room...Muppet was really staring at it, and our vet said, "Look at that...she recognizes that as another cat!" ~

So, I think they pay attention, even if the image isn't moving.

Mine certainly watch television, and "Video Catnip"....whoa! They love it!

Oh, let me play with your camera strap, too, Mom!

Here's my sweet Angel-Muppet...♥

Leo got a bath last night...look how fluffy he is! Persians can be kind of "oily", so besides regular pet shampoo he gets one lathering with Dawn, like they use on the poor little marine animals that get oil on them from spills...

If you look at Tallulah's fur in the photos above, you can see it looks kind of "clumpy", even with grooming...she's next for a bath!

What?? Another bath? ~ NO!


It's okay, Leo...you're de-greased for a while!

One more thing...

Look at this scary reflection!

Don't worry, he's dead...(a natural death, I am assuming)...

Jonathan found him, and was going to try and freak me out by putting him on my keyboard...

His dad, knowing how afraid I am of spiders, tipped me off.

Lucky for my child!

~

I still screamed and carried on a little for Jonathan's benefit, however, which he took boyish delight in...:).

~

You can't tell, but this thing's probably  2 1/2" long, at least ~ and that's with the legs slightly bent.

For some reason, when it died it didn't curl up like they usually do...

It's just kind of...pliable...

So, after the hysterics were over, Jonathan made it do a little soft-shoe on my mouse-pad, while he sang "Hello, My Baby" in a perfect Michigan J. Frog impersonation...

Wish I had it recorded!

So...it's on my buffet...drying, I guess. For now.

LOL...rarely a dull moment...

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

♥

Anne
