LaLa Land


Some animals adapt so readily to their environment...


But nothing amuses me more than a cat's ability to find a place to snuggle and drift off to LaLa Land...


Cats Sleep Anywhere

" Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair.
Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge.
Open drawer, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do.
Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks.
Anywhere! They don't care! "
Cats sleep anywhere.

Eleanor Farjeon (1881-1965)

A sweet post. I love that little quote - so very true - Jess has a favourite shoe box at the moment!

Your two cats look very beautiful snuggled by the wood-burner. They steal away our hearts, don't they?

This is the third time I've looked at the "LaLa Land" post, FGS... there's something about the countenance of a sleeping animal (or baby) that must be the definition of "peace" don't you think? Your "babies" look ever so peaceful indeed! Give them all a pat for me.......

Suzanne said...

Cute photos! It is late here, and I should probably be in Lala land myself! Think any of the kitties would scoot over and make some room for me?

What a wonderful menagerie of fuzzy and furries you have. Don't you love being surrounded by all of your creatures. I love Talula and Madeline.
My fourlegged furry friend is my constant companion and we share many hours and good times together.
I love your wonderful blog and the tender feeling of love abides within it.
Thanks for sharing with us all
