all tucked in!

So, Holland and I had kind of a rough night on Thursday... I was away for almost 12 hours between work and an after work commitment, then I had to do some homework when I got home, so I had very little time to play with her. On top of all that, I just got a new laptop that she is not allowed to be on, and she kept trying to "sneak" onto the keyboard. If I tried to gently push her away she would NOT budge (that girl is stubborn!!) and if I tried to pick her up she would swat at me. I know she just wanted attention, but I was tired and had to get some work done...

Then she woke me up REALLY early on Friday morning (we're talking 3am) by jumping right onto my stomach. She does this pretty often and it normally doesn't bother me. I pet her until I fall asleep again, but at the time she woke me up I was tired, grouchy, and MAD! I tried to ignore her, but when she wants to be petted she headbutts my hand until I give in. She woke me up just before 5am wanting to be fed, I had to be up at 6:30, but I decided to get up and feed her instead of ignore just so I could have some peace. Let's just say while I was up getting her food ready I was speaking pretty harshly to her.

ANYWAY, it's so nice to know that they can forgive us.... This was last night, I had my fleece blanket on my lap and she came and cuddled up next to my leg so I covered her up and she was in deep sleep before I knew it. I can always tell when she's sleeping hard because she gets real twitchy, her mouth opens and closes like she's trying to sleep talk, and sometimes she will even snore.





And here she is tonight, playing Queen of the (fleece) Hill:

So cute!!

Very pretty kitty as usual

Awwww, she really DOES look like royalty! A Beautiful queen she is!

She is so cute!! I'm glad she's forgiven you and is back to snuggling with you.

Awwww.....Holland is so beautiful and sleek. It's hard on us when we can't give them the attention they are used to getting, because we feel guilty....and they capitalize on that! Glad all is well again.

She is such pretty cat!

And a real good companion.

Aww cute!!! Luna, my little black kitty that reminds you of Holland loves to be annoyingly cute too!

Aw, Holland is such a cutie. I hear you, though. I can get pretty miffed when my Raven persists in bugging me when I have other things to do. They forgive and forget pretty easily.

Holland is just wayyy too cute and sweet

I wonder if its a black cat thing, soots is the same so quick to forgive and easily makes you go awwww

Holland is beautiful she certainly links comfy

Holland is absolutely adorable! I do love how quick they are to forgive. Even if I do get mad at Wessie when he wakes me up earlier than I would like, he always is happy when I let him out of the room or feed him. We should all be more like cats!

Holland is a beauty.

She looks so nice and comfy

Holland is just beautiful! And yes, very forgiving. Thank goodness. When I get upset with my kids, I'm always upset with myself afterward. I'm so glad they are so forgiving, too.

Oh, Holland!! So glad she forgave you quickly. She is pretty as always, I must say. Is she as soft as she looks?

I could pet her for hours she is so soft. One downside of living in a dry climate, though... after a few pets, the static builds up and I end up zapping her! She's used to it though.
