Colouring with Cats #56 ~ Getting Your OM on with Mandalas on Mondays ~ The Big Thaw & Bacon Lovers Delight


Supurr Monday greetings beautiful furriends

Thank cod the weather has warmed up, last weeks big freeze is all but gone now, the only thing we're waiting fur is the fountain as it is blanketed in a thick layer of ice and will take a few days to return to normal.  We're hoping that the ice hasn't cracked the pot, though we'll just have to wait and see.


Oh, and aftur seeing all mew guys offur the last week with your bacon butties and bacon with effurything, guess what?  Dad finally cooked bacon! MOL


Woo hoo, we got BACON!!!!

And now I think aftur all that excitement we need to take a moment to chill.



Anyhoo, we do hope mew've all have a totally pawesome weekend and that mew're ready fur the week ahead, so let's jump right in and start as always with our little breathing exercise, which we're sure mew all have down paw by now...  but if mew've furgotten, stop what mew're doing fur a moment and take deep fulfilling breaths; counting to five on the inhale and five on the exhale:

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out

Smooch is back to help today, so just press play, close your eyes and follow his instructions...



Don't mew feel better already?  I know we do!

  10. We're so glad SOME CAT wasn't in your sleeping spot, Smooch. You look less than impressed. My kitties love bacon too - Bear went 10 years with never having it - but The Boy spoils them and gives them small pieces :) I love how you shaded this week's mandala - beautiful!

  16. Ooh, just looking at that bird bath sends chills to my bones. Tee hee hee. I think humans should be required to do your breathing exercises, Smooch, 'cause then there wouldn't be any road rage, violence or hate in the world. Hugs.
