Stars and (Tabby?!) Stripes Forever

Happy Independence day! I am wearing my stripes today in celebration. Ok, I know, I wear my stripes every day, I just thought it sounded good. I've celebrated the day in a number of ways, perhaps foremost by sleeping. Ms C took this picture because she thought the angle accented my Jackelope-ishness:

Did you notice in the picture above I have a white tuxi-spot in the middle of my neck? Ms. C thinks it is terribly sweet!

I have a new favorite hobby. After chasing and carrying around my favorite toy, the orange furrymouse, I like to drop it into Mr. R's shoe for an extra challenge. Ms. C caught me at a lazy moment when I was resting with both of my front paws in the shoe. Don't you think it fits me well?


Do you think it looks like I'm singing? I like to pretend that this is what it's about, but actually I'm just getting ready to rest again. Ms. C still has an injured finger so she cannot play her piano, so someone may as well make good use of it:

I hope everyone who's celebrating has a fun, safe holiday!

That's the coolest mousie, Abby. I think I would like it, too..and "storing" it in Mr. R's shoe is very convenient-add's a nice foot-frou to it for later!

Happy 4th!

That angle seems to lend itself to napping! We do not think that shoe fits you all that well, Abby, but it is a good hiding spot for toys.
