So it was with immense pleasure that busy as I was I stood still for some minutes and gazed at Mr Sweet Pants who winked at me that faithful afternoon.
He hadn't been in that spot long enough when his naughty brother Ollie had to walk over with his musical gait to check that specific section of the cement courtyard.
Ollie plopped himself on the ground and rolled back and forth pretending to be testing its hardness and warmth while in fact he just wanted to be near Gus,
to be in his space and time.
Naturally Gus pretended to not be aware of this big furry orange cat in his vicinity
which prompted Ollie to sing out loud so he would not miss him. I was impressed.
Ahem...one satisfied lion cat...I wanted to chuckle at his facial expressions but held back.
It became time to leave, two cat boys on their way to explore the boundaries of their kingdom.
"Simply, the thing I am shall make me live." (William Shakespeare)
Ciao everyone!
man. o. man.
ReplyDeletei love that quote. that's exactly how i have been feeling the past few days.
the photos of the boys really made me smile....their antics....ollie's gait....gussy's laying-about....
your life is so good.
marie- your life is so good too...xxx
ReplyDeleteLetting yourself pause, to just simply be. I cannot think of a more pleasant way to pass the time than being entertained, ever so subtlety, by sweet Gus and th' honey badger Ollie, out there on your patio, your refuge.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being who you are. x
prairie girl- xoxo
ReplyDeleteSuch a relaxing post - Ollie singing ( ; ) and all..
ReplyDeleteTell me, do they hop on your lap often?
Dear Mette:
ReplyDeleteThey do hop on the lap top...they have to know everything as you expect, they have to know what groceries we bought, what is in our closets...nothing should go unnoticed and so I think they should work at airport security...wishing you a great weekend xx
Hello Mona
ReplyDeleteIf those two worked at the Airport - there would be many missed flights and loving eyes seeking their attention. I for one would sneak some snacks of fish for them.

haha, love your comments as always! :D
ReplyDeleteI THOUGHT I had left a comment a few days ago; when I type responses on my iPad sometimes it doesn't "take." Oh well, just wanted to say how much I love to see cats yawn. Makes me smile. Hope your cat boys are having a purr-fectly wonderful Halloween.
ReplyDelete"No thoughts that I wanted to be bothered with..." I like that. I think cats have a way of easing the mind of those annoying thoughts we'd rather not be bothered with. Good words. Kisses to the boys. And as prairiegirl said, "Thanks for being who you are." :)
ReplyDeleteI think I know what you mean and this looks so relaxing :)
ReplyDeleteLittle jeansy, Ollie and Augustas:
ReplyDeleteI'm missing you. Is nothing going on out on the patio these days? Are you hibernating? Perhaps you are traveling and enjoying life...I hope so! xo
