It’s the Friday Variety Show on the blog – Felines, Flowers, and a Hound? Everyone worries about cat bro Bert, but he is doing great living as in indoor/outdoor cat. He spends most of his time outside, his choice. When he is in the house, it is usually to eat, or for a really good nap. Mom finds him fun to photograph in the great outdoors, so let’s see what she captured. This first photo is our favorite.
Cat bro Bert enjoys napping in the hot sun, but then he will find a shady spot to cool off after a bit. Don’t worry, he drinks from the big, dog water bowl so he stays hydrated.
He’s been a partial outdoor kitty for a few months now, but he still has never strayed from our fenced yard. Even when the lawn people come and he is outside, he doesn’t run out the open gate. He does come down to the grass when we are out to see what we are up to. Sometimes he even initiates a race to the far end of the yard with us!
Mom says he looks like a wild animal cat in this photo. He does have a wild cat look to him, I must agree.
Moving on to flowers, well this isn’t a flower but it is a variety show, so we have this thing. There are a lot of them on the grass in the early mornings. We think they look so interesting.
Our snowball bushes, aka Hydrangeas, are starting to bloom. They look so ugly when they get started! We have weeds that look similar.
It doesn’t take long, and the beauty hits and we have a snowball bush that is gorgeous! Now we need some snow to cool things off. Our white bushes are the giant ones, so we have tons of snowballs.
We also have a small Hydrangea bush that puts out pretty pink flowers.
Didn’t we say a hound in the title of this post? Yes we sure did and we saved the hound for last. Look at these two silly sleepers! Mom had to get a shot of this!
We are joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop held by Comedy Plus.
Your hydrangeas are just gorgeous and you look very happy to be outside, Bert! Love the last shot.
Bert is much happier being outside, but he still drives Mom crazy when he comes inside!
we love the first photot too… your bert looks like a king or one of that giant stone cats in egypt ;O)
I would take the time to smell those beautiful flowers! I think Bert thinks he is a dog, and secretly loves being with the hounds. XOXO Sparkle
He does think he is a dog, but we know he is a cat!
It is so sweet how they all get get along.
Bert likes to fit in with the dogs around here.
Those are lovely photos of Bert.
Thank you. He makes a good outdoor model.
Bert is a handsome mancat. He’s well behaved outside too.
Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.
Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend. Scritches all around and my best to your mom. ♥
He behaves better outside than he does inside.
Hello and meow to beautiful Bert … loving your hydrangeas, we remember them as actually being “cool” if you touched your nose to
them? And of course, the cat nappers together is a precious photo.
We have never touched them but we might have to try and see if they are cool to the touch.
Well, Bert is a complex creature!
He is a troublesome guy, but we are trying to do the best for everyone.
LOvely topic and photos! Especially the first one and the last one!!!
Bert does look like the Lawnen King! Those are sure some pretty flowers.
He is a wild fellow now that he is outside. It agrees with him.
Bert is a wonderful cat! Glad he doesn’t wander! Take care and have a great weekend!
He is wonderful if you don’t live in the house with him. Now that he is outside a lot, everyone is much happier.
that last photo is beyond adorable!
It is cute and funny!
It’s great to see Cat Bro Bert enjoying life!
He is quite pleased to be outside.
