Happy Birthday Barney Baloo...



Today is Barney Baloo's birthday... and while we normally don't make a big fuss on our pet's birthdays (because we have about 100 of them if you include the sea monkeys) I decided that Barney needed a little special pressy for his birthday this year... one of the reasons being that he is now a big 5 year old (which I think in cat years means he is in his mid thirties) and also because he is a big fluffy and hairy pain!

Big fluffy cat = big fluffy cat hairs everywhere.

Ever since we renovated our bedroom (with my special secret hideaway bench-seat) this big fluffy cat has decided that his favourite place to sleep is right on the black fabric of the bench seat cushion.

Every morning when I pull the curtains back I either find a fluffy mass sleeping on my favourite seat or  a big pile of cat fur intermingled with flea eggs and other night-exploration matter.

Well, thanks to my ingenious birthday gift - "the matching everything else paisley cat bed ", I can now learn to love Barney once again.  And I think he likes it too.





Happy Birthday Barney Baloo... I do love you, even if you look like you don't love me in this photo...

    man I'd need a paisley pillow that covers the entire lounge to keep the fur, dirt and all other things our boy leaves behind at bay..

  3. See, fur and flea eggs, this is why we don't have cats. We have a dog instead and she can keep both fur and flea eggs outside.

    Good idea!
