Simply Sunday Morning...Afternoon...Evening

Oh, the weatherperson was way off this weekend and we are happy to say we have been soaking up the sun and Teri even took a nap with us this afternoon, so we shared our 'sunpuddle' with her, hahameow!


Oh, Stella...this is where your woman & Disco will be canoodling come Cherry Blossom time!

We are grateful for sun, not snow!

And after a sun bath? Time for a little grooming--if you biggify this photo, you'll see Coco even attends to the very tip of her tail, while holding it with her paw, keeping her marcels in place!


A while back, we won a contest over at Paws and Effect, the very informative and helpful cat blog we follow. It took some time an finding just the right spot for our set of four Catty Stacks to entice us! We ignored them in the bedroom; only sniffed them in the living room; but when Teri put them in the kitchen right next to our resting perch where we can soak up the rays...we decided they were fun and a nice place to lay in the sun or curl up inside.

The other big news of the weekend is about TomTom, the feral mancat Teri has been trying to capture since last April! Here's a photo of him inside the 'feeding station' taken from inside the house through the screen door.

And here he is, sitting outside the trap, after being inside eating the food Teri has been putting in there. At first, he would only stick his head inside just long enough to grab a mouthful of kibble. Then she kept moving the dish further inside, till he went all the way in and ate his fill.

But the weather has been very cold, with ice last week and there are only a couple of available days each week where Teri can take him in to work with her to be neutered...

But this morning...Success! Teri saw him in the feeding station and went outside and set the trap, and he went in the trap to eat and the door shut behind him! He banged up his nose a bit trying to escape but Teri moved the trap and set it over the heating pad that was in the feeding station, surrounded it with an old shower curtain and old bath mats to protect him from the wind.


She even managed to squirt some Advantage on his ears (hope that works as there is no fur there...she never could have gotten it on the skin of his neck!) since he is probably covered in fleas, just like Mama Katz was when Teri trapped her this spring--yay for her getting spayed and not having to raise any more babies!.

Teri has finally boxed up most of the auction prizes and will start mailing them out tomorrow! Sorry for the delay, but hope each and every one of you enjoys your prize and knowing that you helped Brighton out, too! He insisted on including a little Nip and some of his favorite toy, Tinsel PomPoms. And a Pawtographed photo , too! If you would like to remember how you helped Brighton, please take this badge we made to say Thank You to all of you who supported his Yule Tide FunRaiser!
