Yet another quirk of one of the Jellicles that I was able to finally catch a picture of.


When Blondie Rumpleteaser is in a deep, deep sleep, she will raise a ridge along her back, almost like a dorsal fin. Usually, when she is out where she can be seen to get a picture, she'll be sleeping lightly and won't do it. But today, she was totally zonked out on the fouton and I was able to finally get a shot of it

That reminds me of my little brothers baby pictures, where Mom would finger curl what little bit of hair he had, right on the top of his head!! She sure looks comfortable!!

Cool! Maybe it's B.R.'s motion detector. Is she very sensitive to noise or movement even when asleep?

That is too funny. I wonder if she is dreaming of something she is trying to attack? Oreo has that happen on her back when she is getting ready to attack Jazz.
