Lickus Interruptus

So Leo is sitting happily on his cat tree licking away on his fuzzy legs. (Yes, I'm going with legs, I don't care what it looks like!) When he got distracted. But he never really lowered the leg that had been in the Playing The Cello position.

Where the heck did Star go?!
 
 

Oh, there you are...
 
 

That's it, just go to the door and not toward me.....



Ah, back to my bath. Lick lick lick...
 
 

Oo! Birdie!
 
 

Where ya goin' birdie? Aw come on.. I just wanna chat!


I don't think he's buying it, Leo. Perhaps if your leg wasn't over your head?

The UP leg is a good signal to prey that they are not in danger. Perhaps this could be put to strategic use...

That boy does get distracted, doesn't he? No wonder boy cats don't groom with the finesse of us girl kitties!

MOL, maybe he left it up so he didn't lose his place!

Leo made us smile sitting with his leg in the air while looking out the window.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

His attention span is about the same as my boys'. LOL. Actually, his attention span might be longer than my own....

Gattina said...

I think the birdie is not believing you, lol !

Oh1 Silly birdies!

Bath-taking is an art-form. One mustn't be distracted.

mom has seen this one before.... Bourbon is the worst cause he has to lean over to far to scratch his ears that he sometimes forgets what he was doing.

I know you are just waving at the birdie Leo!

Now that's what we call "multitasking!" MOL!

Hello,

I'm not sure why the Iams Dr. didn't answer your question, but I will look into it.

It may take some time, though as I leave for the Barkworld conference on Thursday.

We cannot believe that bird wouldn't chat with you. That is a pretty nervy of that birdie. Maybe that next one will come visit with ya. Take care.

The Island Cats said...

Well, as long as Leo's comfortable there....

That was one darn rude birdie Leo he should've stopped to chat.

Kat said...

The nerve of birds! Hmph! They think they can just fly right by when you're trying to chat with them (ebil squirrels are the same way!)

Kat said...

HAH! He was caught with the flag raised. Maybe the bird's not patriotic.

WOW--you are so multi-talented--playing the cello and all! :) I got a chuckle outta that!

I love the title to this post!

Oui Oui said...

He didn't want to look too obviously like a cat!

Gigi said...

You know what, Leo? I forget to put my legs down too--I just sit there like a statue with one raised leg until the Human says, Spitty? Are you ever gonna put that down? But I never bother to answer her. When she tries to get all up in my business, I find it's best to ignore her.

Than you, Darling Start, for making me feel better. And wow--25 pounds? What a Godly Behemoth of a Boy he must be. I think I might weight about nine pounds now. I guess I need to get into the double digits before I start thinking about aiming for Moose-status, huh?? XOXOXO
