Yoga Kitteh!




Yoga stretch.

Hi efurryone! Miss Billie here to say Hi. It's been a wee bit since I had a chance to blog!
As you can see, I take breaks from napping occasionally to get in some Yoga practice. Momma bought the mat for herself, but she has been having a hard time doing a lot of the poses. Usually she just ends up in "Child's Pose" and hopes she can get up from it!

So one morning while we were watching her she decided that we would probably have more fun on the mat than she was. She sprinkled NIP on it and put some toys rolled in more NIP on top of that!

Talk about a party! I am nearly a 15 year old ladycat and I had a blast! So did Toeshee. Cody was more than happy to eat some NIP and go sleep. Cricket sat in a corner and glared at us. She came out later to play after we left.

The mat feels cool and springy under my paws and I can dig my claws in without hurting it. Momma would love to keep it rolled out for us all the time, but it takes up too much room in the family room and the Daddyman got cranky about it.

Momma would like some cleaning advice. She is having difficulty sweeping up our litter. Not all of it will sweep up. She thinks it's the old broom she's using and is wondering if any of you have a favorite brand of broom or a really good way to get all the litter off the floor. She saw a cool one in the store that said it was for pet clean up, but it probably was for fur.

We hope you all have a really great weekend!

Honestly for cleaning litter we use a cheap hand broom from Ikea around the boxes but I use a little hand vaccuum too - they had one on sale at Target for like $15 that I use on litter or cat food bits. The artificial broom bristles seem to work better.

We think it sounds like you all had a lot of fun that day, well, except Cricket. But that mat sounds like a great kitty mat too!

Between the kitty litter, fur, and the pine shavings for the guinea pigs our floors are always in need of sweeping. If you find anything that works, let us know!
Too bad a bout the yoga mat! That man just doesn't understand the needs of kitties!

A nip party! Whoo hoo!!! Bet you all had a great time.
As for litter cleanup, our mom uses a dustpan and then vacuums. She should mop too occasionally but does not do that so often!
We pee in corn, so mom thinks it is not as messy as the clay type she used to buy us.
Hope you are feeling better!
