Cats, Holidays, Man Cat Mondays, Merlin, Mondays With Merlin

Basket Full of Joy

August 1, 2011 / 16 Comments

If you love cats, sharing makes us purrrr :-)

If it’s Monday, it must be Mondays with Merlin. I don’t believe in putting all my eggs (or catnip) in one basket. I can help out my mom, Layla, in the garden while sitting pretty. That’s what I call multi-tasking. It’s August already folks; enjoy the rest of summer. It’s also Mancat Monday, and don’t you dare say, it’s not manly sitting in a basket. Male or female, cats are a basketful of joy.

Nice photo Merlin. Enjoying the garden from the confines of a basket is a great idea….my cat Sam loved napping in baskets when he was a kitten – he still has fun playing in them. Happy Monday Merlin!

  Pam, thanks. That’s a weeding basket but he had other ideas.
