Footrest

Newton: Whyyyy are you staring at me? You’ve never seen a cat with his foot hanging out of his bed before? Maybe I need a bigger bed!

Silly humans. I’m going to need to do this, and I want to be prepared so I don’t have to unfold my legs out from under me first.

Ohhhh, a good scratch like that feels great.

Kitties, what do you do to be prepared?

    We do love a good foot dangle and that bed is just the right size.

    We do sometimes a tail dangle, or a paw dangle, depends of the bed. And depends of the cat. Purrs

    Hmm, it’s hard for us to be prepared. You see, we like a dangly foot. It shows we can’t be confined. It shows we have a non-conformist style, we’re a free spirit… or at least our dangly foot is. The problem is our Mom sees it as something to kiss. We know! Ewww, right? We know where that dangly foot has been. She doesn’t care and we have to put up with it or not walk on the dangly foot wild side. It’s a quandary.

    My human likes to sleep like this with one foot hanging over the side of the bed. Maybe she is part cat

    Lexy is a foot dangler, too. Mommy thinks foot dangles are the cutest.
