Tuxie Tuesday

Ben can be a naughty boy sometimes...

Here he is playing with Archie's tail.

Archie does a double take to see what Ben is up to.

Jimmy looks on and says "you are crazy brother!"

Ben takes no notice and continues to play.

Dad lends a hand (literally) to keep the peace.

Ben redirects his attention to a bump under the sheets....crisis averted :-)

Tuxie Tuesday

My beautiful Ben in shadow and in light...

snoozing in a sunpuddle

deep in contemplation

oh hi mum I didn't see you there

Tuxie Tuesday

Mum tells us over and over again not to go on the counters

So I wasn't on the counter

Frankly I'm confused why she was still cross

When I was clearly following instructions...sheesh!



***Note from mum:  Our stove does not have pilot lights, the jets only ignite when you turn the knobs on so there is no possibility of Ben getting singed.  I just don't want him to be in the habit of hanging out on the top in case one day he jumped up and the burner was was still hot from cooking.

Tuxie Tuesday

I remember being told in school that Picasso could draw a perfect circle...

I think Ben's circle is the most perfect of all :-)

Tuxie Tuesday

Hi kitties Ben here, yes I'm a mature mancat about town, but that doesn't mean to say that I can't kick up my heels now and again.  I particularly like "The Tickler"...

Clemmie do you want to come over and play with me?

Tuxie Tuesday

Ben is such a cuddly boy....

don't tell anyone but I like to snuggle with mum

this blankie is so soft it makes me smile

mum likes my pink nose

I'm dreaming of my sweet Clementine

Tuxie Tuesday

Ben was in a peevish mood the other morning and attacked the duvet for no reason.  I call it having a TTM (Total Tuxie Moment).

 Btw, this was my first ever video!!!

Tuxie Tuesday

So kitties, on Saturday morning I mosey onto mum and dad's bed for a little cuddle and purr in the sunshine and all of a sudden mum starts laughing.  Then dad laughed too and jumped up to grab the camera while mum held me in a most undignified position and dad took this picture...

and this

Then mum rubbed my nose, told me I was her beautiful green-eyed boy and put me down....parents are so odd sometimes!!!

Tuxie Tuesday

I think by now everyone knows that it drives me crazy when Ben messes about on the upstairs banister...

But look at the angelic halo of light that surrounds him...it's hard to stay angry :-)

Tuxie Tuesday

I am usually a daddy's boy, but sometimes a tuxie mancat just needs a cuddle with his mum...

even if mum is on her side and I have to lie on her bony hip!

Wow her plaid shorts are really loud!!!

That's better, when mum lies on her back I can get into proper snuggle position :-)

Tuxie Tuesday - Ben shows off for Clemmie

Hi there kitties, I'm doing my high wire act on the upstairs banister.  My mum hates it when I do this, but I want my beautiful Clementine to know what a brave mancat I am.

Hi Clemmie, I'm up here!  Do you want to come over and play?

A mancat can't rest on his laurels when a wonderful ladycat like Clemmie is around, here I'm demonstrating my superior balancing skills as I swing out to the left :-)

Phew, that was close...wanna go for a picnic Clemmie, my mum has a basket packed for us :-)

It is so much fun when Clemmie comes over, she's terrific!!!

Tuxie Tuesday (with toes)

I understand there was some fuss yesterday over Archie's toe pads...pulease. 

Get a load of these babies!!!

Ben has some precious pink pads

Clemmie, my toesies are just for you :-)

Tuxie Tuesday

My green-eyed boy :-)

Can you tell which end is up?

Oops, did you want your cardigan back mum?

 Watching from a safe distance!

Tuxedo Tuesday

I haven't seen Ben play with his tail in AGES!

           

Having a bath, minding my own business...

Hey wait a minute....where did that thing come from?

It just moved!

It moved again, did you see it?

What the....gimme that!!!

It's getting away!!!

I don't know what you are talking about mum I did no such thing.
