C is for Cats



 This month is the 15th anniversary of my blog, so I will be sharing previous posts this month from over 2000 that I have written. It's not easy to pick, but I had to have at least one about our cats. We have had 6 different cats over the years, and they have been an important part of our lives. Today, you will get to know a little about our cat, Lucy.

A Day in the Life of Lucy
  

Lucy started her day with a little breakfast.

Then she decided to join Wally, who was still in bed.

After her nap with Wally, she joined the family in 
a game of Scrabble.





She soon became bored with Scrabble and decided 
to play cards instead.

All the game playing tired her out, so she took another 
nap with the rest of the cats.


After her rest, she tried her paws at some arts and crafts.


The tedium of the arts and crafts made her nervous, so she chewed on a box to calm herself before her next nap.








When she woke up, she was hungry and demanded to be fed.


After eating, she decided that she would watch some TV with Annie and me, but soon fell asleep.



With her last burst of energy for the day, she caught a "mouse."



And she fell asleep for the night beside Ward.



The end.


Until next time...

    1. I think you're right. Cat is going to be a popular topic for the day. I have already seen others.

  2. Lucy looks very commanding. I would obey her, whatever she wants, she gets. It seems life as a cat is consisting mostly of napping which I'm all for.

    Have a lovely day.

    1. Lucy was generally not a pushy cat, but got what she wanted by sneaking her way in. Cats can sleep anywhere from 12 to 20 hours a day, with short cat naps. Lucy was typical in that way.

  3. Lucy was a beautiful cat! Love her coloring! This was such a fun post. I can't imagine having 4 cats. Two keeps us busy enough!

    Note to Lissa--we have 1 lazy cat, and one very active cat, so if you want to be a cat in your next life, choose wisely ! ;)

    1. We loved all of our cats, but I used to say, "We have four cats. Two too many." Four kept us hopping.

    1. We used to always say if there's reincarnation, we want to come back as one of our cats. We tried to do right by them.

  6. I forgot about the A to Z challenge. It's how I met you, through A to Z. Lucy had busy day that day, all that napping can wear a cat down. In her yowling photo I see only one lower canine and some redness behind where it is missing. Had she had teeth pulled?

    1. I don’t remember her getting a tooth pulled in that area, but that was a long time ago. I do see what you are talking about.
      I had forgotten that we met years ago during the April challenge.
