Joely, I just bought a throw for my mom and she loves it. My mom has cancer and is sick right now - getting a gift from the place where her Janie gets her throws sure put a smile on my moms face. I think I will have to get her the robe to match the throw after I recoup from the xmas spending.

Dfng, I cannot imagine a more soothing fabric (BD/CC or LG) for your mom. What kind and what color did you get her?

I got her the Cozy Chic in Stone. She was thrilled and it is hard to please and surprise my mom.

Luxe

It's so funny just how much time P&B actually spend in those positions. My former cat, whom I had for 16 years, almost never spent large amounts of time on his back. For P&B, it's a natural occurrence.

Dfng - I'm so happy you were able to find something that comforts your mother. It's great she got such a kick out of getting something like what "her Janie" had!! My DD has a stone robe and it's really pretty. Lots of good thoughts for your mom from me.

LOL re: Bonza & Precious! The only time I can think of that Misha sprawls like that is when she rubs her back on the rug, but she doesn't stay that way. I did have cats in the past we'd find sleeping on their backs, feet up, inbetween the wall and the couch. It's pretty funny to see. P&B make everything look comfy!! :-)

My kits will be on their backs at times, but usually when they are on something squishy like the duvet or the couch cushion or one of the pillows on Angelina's bed upstairs (she has a human queen size with a variety of pillows and throws). But they don't do it often.

P & B never fail to amaze and amuse!

Dfng - I'm sorry I missed your post earlier. Sending good thoughts for your Mom. I can just imagine how much she loves her stone throw. The stone is such a beautiful color and I know we all agree just how comforting the Cozy Chic fabric is. Nothing like it.

As for P&B, the laying around on their backs all the time - again, it brings me back to the Tonkinese being so "dog-like'. lol

thanks Bonza and Watching.

This experience has taught me to not take my days for granted and to stop working 12 hr days.... now I take time to stop and smile at cats lying on their backs. Great picture.

Bonza, I so want to kiss and nuzzle both those bellies. My little Persian lies like that all the time too. Remind me again of what mix Tonks are...Siamese and ??

Dfng, sorry about your mom and I so do know what you mean about the experience changing you. I'm glad she's enjoying her CC.

Holly - Tonks are 1/2 Siamese and 1/2 Burmese.

We got P&B from a breeder who told us they would give all their kittens a kiss on the tummy, every single day, to love on them and socialize them. Of course we drop what we're doing most anytime to give them a kiss on the tummy.

So is it a "nature or nurture" thing? I bet we could debate this and log kits and tendencies for a long time. We could start a thread and a chart.

I think it's nature myself! :-) But whatever, it's just the cutest thing.

Actually, Misha who is Siamese, is different from other cats in that, she lets me rub her belly without starting to kick her feet at me like my non-Siamese have done. Now petting the top of her head & back, if she's in the mood, sends her into all out "play attack"! Crazy cat!!! Siamese are a lot "dog-like" too and since I had one, I just had to have another when Jade died at 16. I think a lot of it is nature and then there is the nurture. I'm sure Misha would not be as rambunctious at times had the kids not had so much fun rough housing with her when she was little! Then again...... she never got over her "wool eating" obsession ...my CC robe proves it! Thank goodness she's kept her teeth off my hoodies!

Here's a couple of pics of Misha. The first one shows a bit of the dog-like behavior. I had to laugh that everytime my son sat down to strum his guitar, Misha got in his lap. If he got up and sat back down w/it later, she got back in his lap. The 2nd one, she's looking super sweet and NOT chewing the CC robe behind her for ONCE! When I get a new one, it's getting hidden from her when I'm not there to observe!!! :-)



I have no idea why she says I chew her stuff...look how cute I am!!

Spence looks like he's playing the blues, Sue! Was he unhappy with you taking a picture or is it his anticipation of the next semester of college? hmmm...

Misha is so pretty! I think I'm coming over to pet her tummy...

I think he was just trying to look like a "cool" rock star, Huk! LOL You better find Misha when she's in her smushy mood or else wait. She can be a really naughty girl; spunky girl; she thinks she's playing, but it hurts, girl! :-)

Watching, I can almost "hear" your son playing! I love the photo - Misha is posed in that "I am going to sit on you no matter what you are doing" way, similar to when I've got my laptop in my lap and P&B insist on sharing the space. lol

Love the "smushy mood" Misha - such a cutie!

Bonza - Honest.. I get a tad jealous - she so loves my son! She was MY Christmas gift 4 yrs ago, but she adores my son. She'll be all curled up snoozing w/me and I swear, she knows the difference of him coming in the door vs anyone else. She goes flying away from me to him! I call her a traitor! LOL He tried to make me feel better and say it's because he's not here all the time because he's in college, but I told him she did that BEFORE he left, too. Truth is, he's always adored her as much as me and sometimes we make deals over who gets to sleep w/her. :-) We even go as far as, "Well YOU napped w/her for a while, so I get her now!" LOL

I got my new CC robe via Ebay - it's slate and feels a thousand times softer than my old one. As soon as I get the chance, I take a photo and show you the "damage" Misha has done to the old one. I'm now hiding BOTH of them UNDER the covers when I get up so she can't get at them. Good thing we have a big quilt so the lumps don't show. LOL

I have a question about the different "naps" that CC has evolved from. I noticed a big difference in the height of the nap w/my new robe vs. the hoodie in the same color (slate) but I can't remember what you said about whether it got tighter or looser as it progressed! Both of my robes are the old white tags, most of the hoodies are old style except the midnight one I got with the brown tag. I think the nap on the hoodie seemed tighter... but I'm not sure. I'll have to make DD bring it over. This new robe feels looser, but lighter! I don't know...... It just feels GOOD though!
