My stamping shadow, Buddy

Hi Everyone
Just had to share with you a picture that I've been waiting weeks to get. Everytime I see Buddy sleeping like this, he hears me coming and changes his position, so I have never been able to take a picture of him sleeping  in this position til tonite. I swear, his hearing is so acute, I think he hears everything that is going on around him. LOL I know cats and other animals really don't get into a deep sleep most of the time so he probably does hear everything. Survival mode I am sure. This time my camera was right by me and I was close enough to get the picture without getting up.


I have 2 other cats as well and they don't ever sleep like this. This position just cracks me up. And he sounds like he's snoring when he is like this. I am surprised he can breathe. Even when he is not laying face down, he snores sometimes. 

Buddy generally is close by me all the time. If I go to my studio, he follows me. If I go to the bathroom, he gets up and follows me. Generally speaking where I am, he is close by. He's like my shadow. LOL

Buddy adopted me last year when he stopped at my house and never left. After many months of him sleeping on my front porch, he got to come in and stay. Finally I had him fixed and got him his shots and now he's all set. He no longer goes out because he is a flea magnet. He goes out and they jump on him. They must think he's a roving motel, except they don't leave. I've given Buddy 3 baths and believe it or not he is really patient and he never meows through out his bath. He is the best little guy. Now if my other two cats would just get off their high horse, we'd all be happy.

Thanks for stopping by to see Buddy. See you soon

This just cracked me up, Barbara! Our Pepper loves to follow us around too -- Miss Nosy! Peaches has funny sleeping positions too and I never have the camera handy. Thanks for sharing!
