Yes, I know how hard that can be. Poor Roy, he has such a hard life.

Tired here too... I think that we're all supposed to be hibernating, it is almost winter... must have missed the memo. Hard to keep my eyes open between emails and phone calls - day dreaming of cozy naps with the kitties.

Have a great week, Laurie!

Roy should be thankful he lives somewhere that the windows can still be open.
Vader has been going nuts for 2 months now that upstate NY is too dang cold to even open the curtains, let alone the doors/windows.

Rest up, Roy! Enjoy the sunshine. (And send some to NY)

aw, Roy, can you move over just a little and make some more room ... aaaah ...

B-r-r-r, like Amy said,it's cold in Upstate NY!!! My kitties have been curled up in our blankets and comforter with their noses buried in their tails. I miss the sunshine and so does Screamer and Sweetie-girl (my kitties)!

It's even cold in Texas. Only 20-something degrees tonight! Brrr!

Great to see Roy looking cozy.

Nice to see warm (?) sunshine and leaves on trees out yonder in La-La Land. Hope you had a great weekend.

Lucky Roy! My cat Phoebe has been fussing for a week to have me open the bathroom window for her to lounge in....but it's been in the 20's-40's here in Central Texas...so NO WAY!!!
Y'all HAVE to read today's Garfield! ROFL!!!

Such a pretty boy. I'm jealous of his open window.

Oh to be Roy. As a Southern Californian, I really wish that it would cool down a bit. I don't mean Siberian temps, but I maybe low 60's so I can wear my fabulous hand knits.

Purl--update us on our boy Roy--how's he doing?

As another Southern California, I too wish that it would cool off already. It's December, for god's sake. Hey, I'd even go for the low 50s. Brrrr.

Our boys, MacDuff and Samson, aren't as lucky as Roy. Our condo is filled with cat-unfriendly windows that have no-napping, tiny ledges. For that reason alone, we really should move.

Presumably he's resting up so as to be ready for his next meal.

An open window!! My cats are so cold (teens in the morning, 30 for the high today. I am happy to see Roy. Thanks for the photo!

Does Roy nod off and then wake up and try to look dignified when his chin hits the blanket? I love it when cats do that. (OK, cats don't really have chins, but you know what I mean.)

That's me yesterday. Except it was cold and dreary outside.

Poor Roy. I hope he doesn't completely wear himself out with all that effort.

I think I'll come back in my next life as a kitty (that is if I have anything to say about it).

I second Pam's comment - please give us an update on the adorable Roy.

It's a cat's life.

Cats most certainly DO have chins! My Jenny loves to have hers rubbed!

Thought bubble for Roy: bacon truck bacon truck bacon truck

Hi! Just a note to tell you how much I love your blog - a lot! The layout looks great too. I really look forward to seeing that you have a new post!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Warm, fuzzy, sleepy kitlettes. It don't get much better than that.

And as for you fellow SoCal-ians, HEY. It's friggin FORTY DEGREES at night, and I'm freezing my a$$ off!!! In another month, when it's cold and rainy and downright miserable, you'll be saying, "Oh, I wish it was warm!"

Yes, please let us know how Roy is. Mostly because he looks like he's doing well, and I'm in need of a well-doing cat story. My mom's Gabby is not well, not well at all, and it's breaking all our hearts.

Aw, "e.", sorry to hear that. I know what it's like having a kitty not doing well.

Love that Roy!

Roy and Frodo have the same problem then. Brave boys. Brave little boys.

I'm with Colleen.Roy, move over a bit please, would ya? I want to join, too*yawn*...

I was so tired, I did a grand total of nothing today.
But no one noticed and i got paid for it so shhh!

Mmm, lucky Roy. I'll join the chorus: it's cold in Ohio too. We reached a balmy 25 degrees today! Ah well, it is December, I don't know why I continue to expect anything different! :)

Laurie, for the last couple of weeks, I've been every now and then getting this tune stuck in my head - "I like big butts and I cannot lie! You other brothers can't deny! But there's no Flash demo inside!" My husband officially thinks I am out of my mind now. Hee hee!

Poor Roy! It's been so cold out here lately that he needs all of the energy he can get.

I've been putting my heating pad on for my furbabies. You have no idea how many cats can fit in a 12"x24" area.

Julie? That song? About big butts? My kids know that song, from Shrek, and they LOVE to sing it. They're 5 1/2 and 4 years old. I'm waiting for the call from the Kindergarten teacher.

LOOK at that sunshine!! And here I was, thinking we're so darned special to get flurries up here in Maine...

BTW, have you noticed that your patterns have made it onto the recent list at Knitting Pattern Central! How spiffy!

Hugs from your frozen blog stalker. As opposed to the toasty stalkers down south.

Toast? It's 22 degrees in NW Alabama. There aint no toast here.

I was having So Cal withdrawl again today. I miss home.

Awwwwww.. sweet Roy. Hope he's feeling a bit better. Had these long cold winter days.

Poor Roy. I hate it when things interfere with my ability to nap.

What a beautiful cat! I bet her fur is all toasty warm. Makes you want to squeeze and cuddle her.

Tell Roy it's phrasin' down here in Baton Rouge. Almost cold enough for me to make some bacon.

My gosh, what a cute pic - thanks for sharing! And mind you, I *do* feel like Roy! ;)

ohh if only to be a Roy. We just got about 1 1/2 inches of powder puff flurried on us yesterday, and we livin in the mid 20's. gotta love Michigan.

how is the Roy? and check in with the ladies doing the blankie for g-ma. they havent updated in awhile and i want to see results!

I bet the cutie is tired because he's freaking out about the insane Valley wind. The insane Valley wind that is knocking down full grown trees.. oh my goodness.

Aww. A nap sounds good...

Crazy Purl, this is Letty Pearl...I am a Foster and Smith junkie too and I finally broke down and bought the very pet stroller you show. IT was on sale for 99.00 as I am sure you know and my Pug loves to go for her motoring trips in it cause she is 15 now and a little less spunky these days. People know I am looney now . I actually thought that I should try to hide the fact that it is a dog but oh well....Any which-a-way...the pet stroller is much more delightful than I could have imagined...well built and a smooth ride. You really should get one and stroll the cats around...IT only makes sense...
