Every night, after she finishes her dinner, Moofa starts hovering around. She waits as I finish up the dishes. The minute she sees that I’m done, she starts with an urgent high pitch meow. She demands that I sit as she climbs onto my lap, purring away like a little motor.
She curls up contentedly and glares at Flyball if he even attempts to come near. He knows better. This is her time as much as it is mine. Nothing melts away the stresses of the day faster than snuggling with a purring cat. During those moments, it feels like everything is right with the world.
The only side effect? Scratch marks from all her darn kneading. I really need to trim those nails.

Ah yes … a purring cat is a special thing!
It certainly is! Thanks for dropping by
Who’s Flyball?
He’s our other cat. The one who thinks he’s a dog
Hilarious!
She is too cute!
Moofa says thanks!
That is such a beautiful shot!
Very Cute… and Flyball?
So sweet! Pets are wonderful people.
Yeah, I know what you mean…. The scratch marks, be careful, could fester! You should discourage that, really!
D
I love when they purr AND snuggle: chin on your arm, tail curled around the other, and peering yellow eyes if there is even a threat of moving.
Lucky you both are..
I am so jealus of you! Hugging a cat is absolut tranquility and hapiness….
Give her another hug from me!
Love the eye; focused.
Lovely putty tat
Wish ours was more snuggly ! It’s all on Her terms . Sometimes I can’t resist doing OneStrokeTooFar.. and then it’s ears back and LOOKOUT
cats are the best!
awwww … so cute
Thanks! This is probably one of the cuter shots I have of her. She’s scowling in most photos!
