This yellow-bellied slider was just sitting there and enjoy the sunlight.

I think his expression just exudes happiness, don’t you think?

And I couldn’t leave without sharing a photo of this gorgeous cat – she was a regular in the local park. People took innumerable photos of her, always claiming that she posed for them. I think she was just enjoying the sun in her favourite spot.

and snowed-in beer (natural refrigeration).

And for the cute factor: this is from last year when we thought we had a big cat but now we know he was only a kitten.

No, it’s not a mistake, it’s not the same post as last week’s Six Word Saturday. I just realised that I know more monsters.

Not even a year ago, we got a new kitten. Henry wasn’t quite new but our house was new to him and everything was exciting and worth observing to him.

New things can tire a little cat out, so once he was sure it was safe, he fell asleep.
He’s grown since then and even has his own blog (being a cat he has staff so he doesn’t write it himself).

My husband was playing with Henry, our cat. I didn’t want to use the flash so as not be intrusive. Well, the result is a ghost cat study in motion.
