Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!


Ella having a sleep in the plant pot!




ABC Wednesday was an idea I had back in 2007 and we are just about to enter Round 7! It is a fun project which takes place every week from 5pm on a Tuesday evening, or whenever convenient.Basically we take a letter of the alphabet and post a picture, text, poem - anything which has a link . Many of you have had a go, some in fact have been aboard since the very first round, but do check it out and do feel welcome to hop aboard! Easy to leave your name on the ABC Wednesday blog!

  3. She doesn't quite fit but looks happy!

    I stopped doing ABC Wed as I found working full time gives me little time to participate. If I was the organised type I would sort it out at the weekend! I hope ABC keeps going so I can join when I work less hours.

    Thanks for all your work on the meme, Denise; it has given so many so much fun.

    (P.S. I think you meant "back in 2007, no?)

    Shalom to you and Ella.

  8. It's amazing how cats seem to be able to sleep anywhere and in any position! She looks like a little darling. I used to have a little black cat we called Smudge!

  17. I love the way a content cat finds a place to sleep. They can sleep anywhere.
    Give me a ring when you plan to come to Rotterdam. My daughter Thyme(also on the blog) and I live only 15 kms from Rotterdam and a 20 minutes walk from the windmills.

  25. I see kitty with slightly opened eyes as if to say, 'why are you bothering me with that camera?'
    He, he, a good title for this would be 'cat in a pot'!!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I love a cat's ability to look as if they planned it that way in the most ridiculous of circumstances. Great photo!

    ReplyDelete
  27. It may looks uncomfortable for human, but I believe the cat snugly fit in there! perfect place for some zzzzzzz

  30. I have grown catnip and cattails, so I guess it isn't that far a stretch to grow a cat plant.

    I wonder what would happen if you watered it?

    Thanks for allowing me to be part of your team for ABC Wednesday, it has been an adventure!

    Looking forward to round seven!

  32. Dear Denise,
    Lovely shot! Such a sweet sleepy kitty! I could use some more of those zzzzzzs! But I can't just sleep anywhere! Cats are great sleepers!

    Thank you for making abc-Wednesday! It is a great idea and I love it.

    Best wishes,
    Anna

  33. Isn't it amazing the places cats will settle for a nap! We buy them these wonderful cushy beds and they choose a pot! Go figure!? This is an adorable photo!

  34. I wish I could sleep like a cat! Looking forward to the next round- I have a plan for it already!

  35. I suspect I may be repeating what's already been said, but here I go anyway. Cats can sleep in the funniest places and positions! Great photo. I am looking forward to participating in the next round all the way through!

  38. Eleanor Farjeon was right - 'Cats sleep anywhere'. Great shot!

  39. Dear Ella,

    I am commenting today for my pet, Ethelmae, since I feel we have a close kinship here.

    I, too, am a solid black feline, quite beautiful if I do say so myself. As are you, my sweet. I see that we both share the occasional white hair, and our hair is of roughly the same length - oh wouldn't you hate to be burdened with the long locks of some of our cousins, like those snooty Persians?

    This flowerpot of yours looks so tempting, but I cannot find an empty one at my house - Ethelmae has all of mine filled to overflowing with flowers - IMAGINE! The closest I can come to that kind of comfort is the punch bowl. It's actually quite nice, high above everyone on the top of the kitchen cabinets above the refrigerator. I can curl inside, sleep peacefully, and view everything below me through the glass of the bowl. I highly recommend this.

    And the best part is that your pet will go out and buy ANOTHER punch bowl for use at parties, so that she doesn't ever have to bother yours! Oh yes, punch bowls are definitely the way to go!

    Happy perches!

    Sincerely,
    Spooky

  40. I have a flower trough with the same pattern. I will cyber post it to you.. It looks like a more comfortable bed than you round one. I must go and take a photo so I don't have to dig for the old one.

    It also has dead plants. Maybe some one's cat has been sleeping on it.

  41. It's amazing how cats can balance on the rim of a plant pot and still sleep on it! Great pic!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and taking time to post a comment on my Zen Garden post. This is my 2nd or 3rd time at ABC Wednesday, and it's been so much fun. I'm so glad I found it. I hope to join you in Round 7. Thanks for hosting!

  42. How do they fold themselves into such tiny spaces? The definition of flexible.

    Thank you for leaving a comment on my blog. I've really enjoyed participating in ABC Wednesday and look forward to another round. There will be an updated badge, right? I'm finally figuring out how to get them up on my sidebar. Woohoo.
