Piffle has reached that age where, whenever I find her curled up somewhere unexpected, I have to take a quick look to check she's still breathing.

She spent the entire day fast asleep on the patio, blissfully oblivious of the presence of any passing rival cats. (Actually, I have a sneaky suspicion that she's perfectly aware they're there, but pretends to be asleep because she can't be bothered to stir herself to deal with them but doesnt' want to lose her street cred...)

N'awwww! She's so adorable.

Cleo's at that age, too. And he's somewhat deaf, so he often doesn't come to greet me when I get home after work and I go looking - holding my breath - afraid of what I'll find. He always wakes with a startled, "Mrrrrrt?" when I touch him and then immediately stretches and yawns all casual-like, pretending he knew I was there all along. *g*

I'm trying to gently get the kids used to the idea that one day Piffle won't be there any longer. At least I can remember life without her - she's older than both of them, so has been a fixture their entire lives. They do love her so - they often invite her in when they're watching TV and tuck her up in the quilt on the sofa with them - Piffle loves it, and so do they.
