Title: This is what I have to contend with... he's making me late for work!
Post by: Tiggy's Mum on August 30, 2007, 12:56:08 PM
I'm on lates today and am trying to get stuff done but it's almost impossible - this is what I'm up against...  How can I get ready when this tummy is exposed wanting gentle rubs?!

Here's a couple from the last few days aswell, he is such a sweet gentle little boy and I worry he gets overlooked because of Riley's continual antics.  Yesterday Lu managed to get on the ironing board and instead of being angry with him I was really proud of him  :)

Hehe, I love giving my oldest tom raspberries on his belly! He looks like such a bruiser but when he lies on the floor with his belly exposed I can't help it!

He really is lovely, Helen. What an utter babe!

Ah yes, rasberries on tums are the best  :Luv: :Luv:

The boys are saying 'don't bother going to work mum, stay here and play with us .......'  :sneaky:

I was late for work this morning (well later than usual) as Max was all snuggly under the duvet and I didn't want to get up  :evillaugh:

I don't do it to willow as I need my eyes for seeing  :evillaugh:

Clapton doesn't do exposed bellies  :evillaugh:

This is realtime footage taken 30 secs ago, you can almost hear them saying 'don't leave us Mum!'

Aww  :Luv:  what a gorgeous tummy!  I'm a sucker for furry tummies too and am often late for work because Jaffa is giving me those "stay at home" eyes.

They're really developing their individual purrsonalities, aren't they?

This is getting beyond a joke, here they are just now - I should be walking out the door now but they are way too cute!

Definitely, Riley is very cheeky - always into something he shouldn't be, ultra confident at home with me but painfully shy with new visitors.  Lukey is very gentle and quiet, never really into mischief, adores his tummy rubs and is confident around visitors  :)

I agree, how cute can two cats actually get!!! My Smidgen does the exposed tummy occasionally, but is usually so hyperactive he it is because the tummy is several feet above me lol. They are real snugglepusses, give them a big belly blurt from me.  :Luv:

 :drool; I just want that belly!

Helen they are fabulous. I take it you did make it to work in the end. Have to admit it breaks my heart leaving Lexy some days. I know she loves nothing more than a good snooze but oh that look they give you...

Very soppy...

Aaaah they are soooooo gorgeous I'm not surprised you don't want to leave them  :Luv: I have the same thing with my two, they both give me that "Don't leave us mum" look as I go out the door - the fact that as soon as I've gone they go back to bed is completely beside the point  :rofl: :rofl: Oh and Hobbes likes to flash his tummy too - no shame these cats  :rofl:

What a scrummy tummy. I'm surprised any of us manage to get out of the house to be honest with all those tummies wanting tickles and rubs. Someone brought their dog into work yesterday, surely if I brought Fergus and Polly in with their tent, they'd be fine  :evillaugh:!!!
