Tour de Cats – Tisket a Tasket, We Love Us a Good Basket!

by Deb at 4:50 AM • Wordless Wednesday24 Comments

I did a post this past Caturday on boxes, stuff, and the inventory of life. It was a thought-provoking piece and I really enjoyed everyone’s reflective comments. But what about the real important stuff to a cat? Like baskets… life doesn’t just have to be about boxes, you know… So, as part of our ongoing Tour de Cat series where we show you a firsthand tour of our house, Zee/Zoey style, for this Wordless Wednesday we focus on the often over-shadowed, but very important nonetheless, basket.

Hmmm…. what do we have here? Zoey wonders if she should keep exploring, play with a toy, or find a good basket to nap in…

HarleyBasket

Harley is no fool and doesn’t hesitate for a moment… Toys? What toys? This basket is meant for napping!

peanut-basket

Peanut agrees with Harley and camouflages herself so that she and the toys have become one!

mia-basket

Mia takes a more decorative approach and looks like a stunning accessory inside the basket as she poses for the camera!

Rolz takes the prize for the ultimate stunning, handsome, and elegant cat…

  1. Ah Mia and Rolz – how lovely you are in your baskets – and Peanut and and Harley – how cozy!

    Did you hear? We have a NEW FURBABY! Stop by and meet Magellan – Tsunami’s real-life half-brother and the latest feline to grace our family! 🙂

    Oh, happy day to you! 🙂

  2. You kitties make those baskets look pawfect. I know chihuahua’s like them too. Yesterday ma put the empty laundry basket on the floor and my kitty Molly Mew had a great time playing in it until she went to jump out and I don’t know what happened but she flipped the basket in the air and it landed on top of her , trapping her like a wild beast in the jungle. She didn’t like that basket no more.

      I agree Cattle Aussies – she is the purrfect camouflage kitty and I can’t believe how she can curl her body so perfectly round like that!

    Baskets are the BEST! We especially love the picture of Harley; talk about making oneself comfortable! 🙂
