Feline Friday

 This last weekend, we set the clocks back an hour as we always do this time of year. Spouse didn't re-set Lily's automatic feeder because, frankly, it's a pain. So her dry food now dispenses at 8:30pm instead of 9:30.

When the food dispenser released its tasty morsels an hour earlier on the first evening after the time change, Lily was sound asleep and caught by surprise -- completely unaware that the clocks had been set back. But it only took once to reset her internal clock!

 

The next night, she woke up from her evening nap at about 8:20pm and began her routine of staring at the feeder!

Smart girl knows how to tell time! 😉

 Ahh, yes, it's true that I have so many pictures of Lily on my phone that I have to pay for more storage each month. 

Spouse questions me every time he sees me taking a picture: "You have hundreds of that same picture!"

 

I actually don't think that's the case. 😉

But even so, I simply cannot resist capturing THIS sweet moment on THIS day!

 Who can resist this sweet doll baby?

 Here is her “business in the front, party in the back” pose. I love it when she sits like this!

Feline Friday: Yoga with Lilian

 Did you know that Lily is into yoga? Whenever she hears the slap of the mat against the floor, she comes running!

She’s still working on her yoga skills.  Her favorite is the resting meditation pose. She’s got that one mastered! 😸

If you come over to visit, watch where you step! LOL

While I have had another crazy busy week, it seems that Lily has not! Let's take a look at how she's been spending her days.

First there was this...

And then she rediscovered the back of the loveseat for optimum fall viewing...

Then she did some of her posing...

Now back to the loveseat...

Her week included a partial face-grab, one of my favorites!

With all of these naps to take, I guess Lily was busy in her own way!

 You can always tell when the weather gets colder! Lily enjoys being swaddled in old baby blankets and they frequently ride along when she gets up from her nap. 

 

It’s just the cutest thing ever!

 Maybe I've gone "round the bend" but I can't help but think there are some points of similarity here. 😍

 

Ok, if not a baked potato with sour cream, perhaps something like this? LOL

The last few weeks have been super busy for me, as we're getting ready for some big online classes at Memory Bound. As you can see, Lily is not at all helpful with kit assembly!

 She likes to be near me but will rarely stay awake to see what I'm doing. I guess she finds all of this crafty stuff pretty boring!

 

Actually, she must find MUCH of what I do pretty boring, as she spends most of our time together asleep!

But awake or asleep, I still love to have her company!

 

 

Feline Friday with Rory

In the years since our daughter and son-in-law have been in Texas, we've learned about these little lizard creatures. During the summer months, they're ALL around the house -- often on the windows, as you see here. They can even change colors to match their surroundings!

Along with birds, squirrels, and butterflies, these little guys provide endless hours of entertainment for Rory.

And if one happens to sneak inside the house, as they like to do when the weather gets cooler, watch out! Rory is a fierce protector of the home turf and will carry those lizards around to show them who's boss! 

At least when she's awake! 😉

 Lily has become quite the messy eater in her senior years. She pushes food off of her plate and onto her placemat where is sticks and dries. In fact, I became concerned that she might have a problem with her teeth so I had the vet check them at her last visit. Thankfully, her toofers are fine!   

 

So I switched her from a plate to a bowl in an effort to keep the food more confined. Now her little nose gets totally wet when she eats. I'm not sure we've solved the messy food station problem, but she sure looks adorable!

Feline Friday: Best Day Ever!

 Lily loves Refill Day! It's the day when Meowmy puts more TASTY NOMS in the automatic feeder.

 

There's always a brief moment when the lid is off, and that's when Lily -- ever the opportunist when it comes to food -- dives in!

Lily gives a new meaning to FAST and FURIOUS! She gobbles as quickly as she can, filling her mouth up and dropping morsels onto the floor for later consumption. Then up she goes again to retrieve more! It's actually rather hilarious, which is why I let it go on for a few moments before I snap the lid back on!
