Little Cat Feet

Shaggy and his littermate brother Scooby came to live with us in October 2005, when they were 5 years old. Scout arrived in 2006 at the age of 6 weeks. Scooby passed over very suddenly to the Rainbow Bridge on April 1, 2012 and is remembered fondly and missed deeply.

S-t-r-e-t-c-h


Mom's back has been hurting again so she started doing the strengthening exercises she is supposed to do all the time, but doesn't.
She lays on the floor and does abdominal tightening & leg lifts.

Of course we snoopervise. When she lays down, we all come and surround her and stare at her.
When she starts stretching & moaning one of us will sometimes climb on her belly or lay across her legs in an attempt to make her feel better, but she doesn't appreciate it.
Yesterday Shaggy went behind her head and leaned over to stare into her face so she saw him upside down.
Heh Heh. Kind of gave her a bit of a fright too!

Here I am as a young kit, 9 months old doing a stretch on the floor just like her. Except she doesn't have a tail.
Mom can't get her pictures to download to the computer so we are recycling for the time being.

We hope your Mom's back is better soon.

Mom says when she gets down on the floor and stretches we climb on top of her. I have been known to climb up on top of her back while she is trying to do yoga.

MOL!!!!

I hope your Mom's back is better soon. And I too love it when my human works out on the floor--it's very fun to help.

Oh, that must be the thing where The Big Thing suddenly stands up an starts pushin his arm muscles to an from the wall ta stretch them out. He gets these cramps in his side.

We dont mind except when we are asleep on his lap an he suddenly jumps up. We wish he would at least learn ta do that more slowly so we could stretch first then hop off.
