I wish I was........

a cat. If there's such a thing as reincarnation, which I doubt, I want to come
back as a cat. Not any cat, but a spoilt indoor cat like Toffee. Then, rather
than dragging myself off to work on a miserable winter's morning when
I don't feel well, I would lie on my owners' bed and have a long nap.

This is so sweet and I agree, our indoor cats have a wonderful life. ~

I agree...spoiled housecoats have the best life. Great shot of Toffee! V

Between the pose and the bedclothes, it really does make for a very indolent scene. (Though when I saw the title I thought you were going to end the sentence from Toffee's view, in which case the concluding words would probably be "fed more".)

Yes, cat's are the connoisseurs of relaxation. V.

Typical cat pose makes a great photo. v

What a life!! I've had the same thought. LOL This is a lovely photo of him. The soft light and dainty bedding add a dreamy mood. V

A delightful existence. Sort of like retirement. So you won't have to die and be reborn to experience this!

I have often thought the same -- but then I remind myself that cats have to clean their backsides with their tongues. . .

Patricia Kay		08-Feb-2011 09:56
Sounds a great idea Mairead...love this shot of Toffee...BV

I have often thought the same! I love the lighting on Toffee. It shows up his beautiful glossy fur nicely. He does look soooo comfortable, too. ~V~

Carl Carbone		08-Feb-2011 01:32
Cute photo and sentiment!

Stephanie		07-Feb-2011 23:53
I agree with you Mairead! Toffee and Fudge are very lucky to have you as their mom! Darling shot! :)

routerer		07-Feb-2011 23:17
I wish i was ....as cute as Toffee john

Guest		07-Feb-2011 23:07
No wonder they say living with cats lowers your blood pressure - that is true and complete relaxation. Now, if you'd just lower the blind I wouldn't have to sleep with my paw across my eyes!

laine		07-Feb-2011 22:44
I agree...a pampered cat's life would be perfect...even neutered!! LOL!!

Walter Otto Koenig		07-Feb-2011 22:42
My sentiments too, plus to be playful and be pampered as well. :)

Máire Uí Mhaicín		07-Feb-2011 22:18
... as relaxed as Toffee!

pkocinski		07-Feb-2011 22:10
A little sunshine for warmth and a nice soft spot - "purr-fect".

larose forest photos		07-Feb-2011 21:25
Love that pose. Very much a classic feline one! Lovely shot with the sun across the bed. V

David Hobbs		07-Feb-2011 21:17
In some ways if you've seen one you've seen 'em all. Our cat, Sophie often sleeps just like that. Nonetheless this is a beautifully executed image of a lovable animal. V

Ann...		07-Feb-2011 21:13
That's just what I was thinking when I looked at the thumbnail! I love that paw across his nose!

Phillip Normanton		07-Feb-2011 21:09
