Flashback Friday

The head peep has been saying that she misses having cats who snuggle together. We might share a piece of furniture, as long as it’s large enough that we don’t have to be too close, but we don’t snuggle together. But looking back on when Newton was a kitten, he was determined to snuggle, even though Pierre really wasn’t interested in it.

Here, you can clearly see that Pierre is thinking, “Go away, kid, you bother me.”

But Newton has always been a force of nature. He would wait until Pierre was asleep and then ninja snuggle him.

Do you kitties snuggle with each other?


Almost two weeks ago, Nerissa at Nerissa’s Life gave us the Wonderful Team Member Leadership Award. (Yes, the head peep is disorganized and slow about awards, but we’re trying to make her be better about it.)

Isn’t it a beautiful graphic? Thank you, Nerissa! We’re supposed to pass it along to fifteen more bloggers, but we think you’re all amazing. Please, if you haven’t been presented with the award yet, take it, because you deserve it, too!

Thank you, Nerissa, for thinking of us with this award.

    Cosmo and Ling used to snuggle together. But after 2 rounds of redirected aggression where Cosmo practically beat up his little sisfur, there have been no more snuggling sessions. ๐Ÿ™

    Now the only snugglebugs are Meow-Me, Coco and Felix. They can often be seen in the same hammock at the same time. Can’t break the bond between Momma and kids!

    Congratulations on your award!

    Newton was a determined little kitten! Carmine would love to snuggle with Lita or Jewel, but they won’t let him. Sometimes they will let him lay by them or on the same furniture, though.

    We mostly snuggle together when it’s cold so it’s mainly to keep warm or if we are upset about something. When Mum brought us home we used to snuggle quite a lot because it was strange not to have lots of other siblings about.

    Y’know, when the weather is warm, we rarely snuggle with each other. But in the fall and winter, we’ll do lots of snuggling. But we never snuggle with Zoey…she never wants to snuggle.

    No snugglin in our house. Mom hopes that the next time she adopts she finds two siblings together. One day when she is ready she will begin that search, and maybe those two will love snugglin together.

    Kitshka is always the one who wants to snuggle with me. She tried this with Milou too, when she was a kitten. She is quite purrsuasive!

    Eric and I used to snuggle all the time. When we first came to live here, Kitty Yumbum was not a snuggler but he soon changed that.

    What a copout! MOL! Everyone is amazing. Just kidding. That last pic is so cute. TW claims that sometimes I press my butt against her during the night but she’s hallucinating.

    Sisters Fiona and Giulietta are the snuggle kitties here. They are rarely apart and always spooning, no matter how hot it gets. The remainder of us mostly like to snuggle with mom and dad. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Misty May, Mauricio, Giulietta, Lisbeth, Fiona, Astrid and Calista Jo
