Last night after dinner, I had settled into Dad’s lap for what I had hoped was going to be a nice snuggle and snooze. I really needed it after a tumultuous day at Cat Scouts. As I promised my sisfurs no Cat Scout reports until the New Year, I will not burden you with the details now.
Much to my dismay, this comfy nap was soon interrupted. My shadow sisfur, Astrid, decided that my lap looked as inviting to her as Dad’s had looked to me. The following pictures show what ensued. Being a good Cat Scout and big brother, who doesn’t mind being worshipped, I sucked it up and indulged the little interloper.
Shortly after we settled in for a long winter’s nap, Dad declared us too HEAVY and unceremoniously dumped us out of his lap!

Purrs and hugs, Mauricio and Astrid

That’s so sweet! We do that too but our daddy knows he has to sit there until we’re ready to get up or else he has to put up with the wrath of mommy which is way worse than his legs going numb because of us!
Happy New Year to all of you!
Happy New Year sisfurs and brofur! I hope 2014 brings you boundless treats and happiness! Bisous from your brofur Bailey

Mau you look so cute bathing your sisfur. It’s so nice to have someone help you clean around your ears. Dad’s have such nice laps to lay in. Our Dad has a fleece blankie. As soon as he sits in his recliner with the fleece blankie we all pile on. It’s a nightly ritual at our house.Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S)
Oh man! Unfair… even if you do look incredibly cute together. Wishing you the very best of Happy New Years. May dad’s lap always be open and warm. See you in 2014! Purrs…
Mauricio, you are quite the mancat! It was very nice of you to indulge your sis-fur and let her share Dad’s lap with you. It was even nicer of you to give her a bath. We all need a little lovin’ sometimes. 🙂
Since you are such a delight, I have nominated you for the Sunshine Award! You can pick it up at my blog anytime 🙂 http://playfulkitty.wordpress.com/2013/12/31/ending-the-year-with-awards/
Dad gave us all the heave-ho last night too! I hope this isn’t a pattern.
What good snuggle naps. Happy New Year to you!
We don’t wait to be asked and just get on Mum’s knee but she does complain if we sit on the article in the paper she was trying to read when we sat down.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Bro you are the best sucking it up. Happy napping.
Have a terrific Tuesday.
Best wishes Molly
Mauricio, that waz furry nice of you to give Astrid a bath. Too bad the kitty nap didn’t last long. Hope you gotted another nap in after Dad made you get out of hims lap.
Mau, you have a very cute face that looks a lot like Oreo’s nose!
Thank you so much fur keeping Jazpurr in your purrz. We took him to the vet this afternoon and Dr. Johnson recommended an antihistamine and continue giving him antibiotics. Jazpurr was a little dehydrated, so I am giving him spoonfuls of tuna water every so often. He doesn’t really like being messed with and I don’t have a way to completely isolate him. Trying to feed him something he likes is hard to do with other kitties wanting some at the same time… Going to be a long night. Purrz, Katie Kat.
What a wonderful lapful of kitties you two make! You’re very patient, Mauricio!
Aw, you’re a great Cat Scout and brofur, Mau! 🙂
Heh-heh, you look like you’ve given up hope in that last pic, Mauricio!
You two made an adorable pic. Have a great day!
XOXO
well I’m sorry it didn’t work out like you wanted to, but it was darn cute to see..
Aww , so cute you are snuggleing in your dad’s lap.
XOXO
You are sure sweet and snuggly!!!
You are very good to let her snuggle up as well.
Awww!!! These are the cutest photos!! You’re a good brother to be so patient with your bootiful tortie sis. Happy New Year!!
That is so funny – it’s exactly something Binga would do! Except she wouldn’t get as polite a reception as Astrid got from you, Mauricio!
Lovely cats, always lovely….Vera, Paladin and Moon
Aaaaah, but she loves you!
The REAL Maple Syrup Mob xxxxx
OMC, Mau! You look like you can barely breathe there! Do you know Wally does that kind of stuff to me, too? Jeez, it’s one thing to have your sister lay on top of you, but your brother? Sheesh!
Ernie
What a sweet bunch of photos Mau. What a patient soul you are allowing Astrid to pop up onto your Dad’s lap ON TOP OF YOU (!) to beg for a special brotherly bath session! And you were kind and considerate and didn’t whap her away – you kindly gave her what she wanted. That is a VERY sweet thing to do (Cat Scouts can be manly AND sweet at the same time you know!!).
Purrhaps your Dad’s lap will be available to you again soon – at a moment when Astrid has something ELSE to occupy her so you can have the lap to yourself!
Sammy
Awww…you are such a good brofur! We don’t allow Tutu anywhere near us when we sleep…because that girl BITES!
Mau, you’re the best Cat Scout and the best brother we’ve ever seen !
This looks like what Chloe Jo does to Maggie, who does it to me! Being Mom, I suffer through it!
I get knocked off Mom’s legs A LOT when she says I am so fat that I make them fall asleep. MOL! Love, Cody
