Snuggles on Sunday

 

Benny The Black: Hello everyone, and welcome to our weekly post of all the best snuggles at Poupounette Central. Although I must say that we could have done without this new heatwave that has sent daytime temps to around 40° (100F). We are managing but #1 is back to sleeping on the sofa downstairs because her bedroom is a furnace, and to make matter even less pleasant, she has pulled a hamstring muscle. Woe is her!

Dragon Ryū has been keeping #1 company on the sofa at night. Fortunately, he is not a toe biter!

I had a good snuggle with Mr. G when he was over the other day:

And he got this nice shot of me and #1:

Despite the heat, I still snuggle with my bro, Momo:

And Momo has also been hanging with Ollie:

Things did get a bit tight the other evening on #1's lap!

#1 visited the Vs yesterday, and they send smooches to everyone. First Violette:

And The Big V:

Wherever you are, we wish you a cool and pleasant Sunday.

Sleek Saturday

 

Benny The Black: Mr. G was here yesterday afternoon and he took a couple of really great shots of me in the cat run!

#1 says I am the sleekest of panthers!

Family Friday

 

Ollie: Woofs, everyone! Ollie here on other scorching hot day in rural France. It is so hot and so dry that all fireworks displays that had been scheduled for July 14th have been cancelled by prefectural order. #1 and I have been going out really early but it's already quite warm before 8am!

My kitty bros are all keeping cool as best they can. Here is Dragon Ryū enjoying the new cat tree:

Thankful Thursday

 

Benny The Black: We are not at all thankful that the heat is back, and will be particularly torrid between today and next Monday. We are, however, thankful that #1 finally got us a new cat tree! She had been looking for a while and finally came across one that looked good and was reasonably priced. It arrived just before she left for Luxembourg, so she put it together after her return. Dragon Ryū helped:

And then it was done!

She ended up putting one of our older repurposed trees next to it, to make it even better for us, and I decided to give it a try:

I like it! Then a certain little scamp decided it was his, and he was quite rude when I tried to tell him that I am the senior cat around here:

Fluff Puff Momo hasn't tried it yet. He is frightened of most things until he gets used to them.

Topsy Turvy Tuesday

 

Dragon Ryū: I wonder if it is any cooler upside down?

Well, at least my tummy gets aired out a bit!

Manly Monday With Momo

 

Momo-Chan: Happy Monday, everyone! Fluff Puff here. I am happy to tell you that #1 returned as planned yesterday evening. I am less pleased to tell you that we are entering yet another heat wave. Anyway, Ollie asked me to start off today's post, first with a nice picture of his handsome self:

And then he wanted to tell you about a woofie that #1 met, and who he is sure is his cousin. Firstly, his name is Collins, as in cOLLIns! He is a four year old Cocker Spaniel. He lives with Ms. A, the daughter of Ms. L whom #1 was visiting in Luxembourg, and he travelled with her by train all the way from Cambridge to Luxembourg on Saturday! Isn't that an awesome adventure? Anywoof, Collins is a very handsome chap:

As for our kitties, here are some pics of me, Benny The Black and Dragon Ryū taken by Mr. G whilst #1 was away:

We are planning to take it easy this week as temps once again edge close to 38° (100F).
