Feline & Friendship Fridays
Cats can nap up to 18 hours out of every 24. Elderly cats can sleep up to 20 hours each day. Calista Jo naps more than any cat we have ever had. At night she sleeps “glued” to my side. If she could crawl inside my skin, she would. This was one her usual day-long naps.
C.J.’s joining the Feline Friday and Friendship Friday blog hops at Comedy Plus and Create With Joy, respectively.
Friendly Fill-Ins: Week #305
Each Friday we participate in the Friendly Fill-Ins blog hop hosted by Ellen (15 And Meowing) and Lorianne (Four-Legged Furballs). They provide the four sentences on their blogs each Thursday with blanks for participants’ responses.
I am fortunate to have had Sawyer and Stinky help me with the fill-ins this week. We all used teal italics for our completions.
1. Stinky: Time flies when Periwinkle and I are on an adventure.
2. For me to fall asleep at night takes forever.
3. Having pneumonia when I was four and the doctor coming to our house everyday to give me a shot of penicillin in the butt and getting in trouble during that time for getting out of bed to retrieve a coloring book and crayons out of my closet is my earliest memory.
4. Sawyer: Is it weird that I like treats better than stinky goodness with meds in it?

Thanks for joining us. We’ll be back tomorrow with some Caturday Art.
What a sweet nap you were having, Calista Jo!
Petcretary is in that can’t fall asleep department, too. And if she knows she has to be somewhere in the morning its even worse. Phooey. She says she stirs up the whole bed, too.
Good thing us pups sleep in our own beds…tee-hee!
I sleep a lot too and the mom says she wishes she could be more like me when it comes to sleeping. ~Ernie
Oh to be able to sleep like a cat. I am the same as you with #2. I rarely get to sleep before 5 am then I have to wake up at 7am for my first lot of meds.
CJ is so pretty and such a sweetie. I enjoyed your answers, but I am sorry you were so sick and got in trouble instead of being spoiled as you should have been. XO
Sleeping kitties are so very precious. You’re napping purrfectly.
Love your fill-ins and I agree with Sawyer. Just saying.
Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.
Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend. Scritches all around, a smooch to Cooper Murphy and Sawyer and a hug to mom. ♥
Cats are so amazing at sleeping so much! Lucy sleeps a lot and then wants to play hard for 5 minutes…that’s it! She is a very fun cat and your CJ is obviously a fun cat also! great fill-ins!
You are adorable Calista Jo. Those were good answers too and I remember back when Doctors came to the house, I hated that!
Aww, Calista Jo, I’m not a cat, and I’m not old, but I still sleep stuck to my Mommy like velcro! XOX Xena
Awww, cute napping picture and good fill ins!
That’s a sweet snoozy photo.
Mom doesn’t have a problem falling asleep but she has a problem STAYING asleep!!
Noelle and Periwinkle answered two of our Fill-ins today too. Raz agrees with Sawyer on the last one but we all want him to eat his food with his meds in it.
The Florida Furkids with love and whisker kisses to Sawyer from Noelle
A dear friend with a 19-1/2 year old cat has the same issue as you have with Calista Jo: velcro kitties!
Your story about having pneumonia reminds me of when I had my tonsils out.
When we first got Chris he slept less than I did but now he is a power napper.
Great fillng in…..and yes we sleep a whole lot but we need a lot of energy to manage the humans we are in charge of! My Mom takes forever to fall asleep usually….turning, twisting, covers up/down/all around. All I have to do is roll over on my back and I’m in LA LA LAND! Happy Friday……..
Hugs, Teddy
OH, that snoozing darling kitty. And yes, we do snore for hours and hours, but oh, don’t you wish you could nod off like that, mama asks? She reads herself to sleep but then wakes up two or three times a night…arggggh. Only the innocent sleep well, I tell her, haha. And HOW DID CALISTA JO GET THAT NAME?
Great answers to this week’s fill-ins!
That’s an aaaaw picture of CJ.
Mummy says she wishes she could nap all day (mol).
