Mr. B’s M.O.

Good night, and good luck. Now winter is just around the corner, I prefer to snuggle under a duvet and hibernate until spring rolls around. But I’m not the only one… Mr. Bowie stayed out of my bedroom in the summer. His modus operandi for catching z’s changed since he noticed there’s a duvet on my bed. A few minutes after I spread the duvet evenly over the bed, Mr. Bowie decided it was time to check it out… Sleep well, my love.

Enjoy this beautiful day, my friends, wherever you are. Peace, love and understanding.

  1. I can’t blame Mr. Bowie in the least. I wish we could get those beautiful European style duvets where I live here in the us. My Danish university roommate had one and I loved it. But my furry thick Korean blankets are very warm and the cats can knead them without snagging fabric. Stay warm both of you,

    • Hi Angela! I always love to see how cats enjoy their sleeping places, especially when it’s a human bed!
      I have a feeling Mr. Bowie appreciates my duvet too…

    • So true… and just wait for spring to arrive again!
      Mr. Bowie says “Meow!” and sends his regards to Snoops and Kommando Kitty!

    • I hate winter but I love sleeping under a soft comfy duvet. That’s the only thing that I like in the winter… 😉
      Mr. Bowie sneaks sometimes under the quilt, but not when I’m in the bed. He loves to do it while I’m not watching…

    • Oh no!!! I’m so sorry for you… You are so right, I wish we were already in spring again… I hate hate hate winter…

  2. Herman, you better claim your spot now, before Mr.Bowie won’t give up his!!! Often cats don’t sleep the same direction we sleep, no, they snuggle their body, square to mine, which leaves if I get lucky a third of my bed. Winter hasn’t arrived here in Southern California, since we have such horrible fires going on, we are fine , but getting all the dust of the ashes and Moshu dislikes that. Happy snuggle times to you both.

    • Winter is a bitch… Tot nu toe geraak ik nog goed door de donkere en koudere dagen. Ik bezie het nu ook positiever en ben al aan ‘t aftellen naar januari en de periode dat de dagen weer langer worden… 😉

  3. Dear Mr Bowie, how do you manage to be so cute even when you sleep? I would be horrified if anyone photographed me sleeping. It’s pretty evident by my hair when I wake, that I have very restless nights. Good for a laugh though 😀 I wrote you a poem….

    When winter winds knock on your door
    and daddy’s duvet is too much,
    climb a top your wee pillow, close your sweet little eye’s,
    and dream of catnip, bumble-bee’s and such.

    • Hi Boomdee! Thank you so much for your nice poem about Mr. Bowie. I tried to explain to him what it’s all about but I’m not sure he understood it… 😉
      Looking forward to see a ‘sleeping photograph’ in your next post…

      Wishing you a wonderful weekend, my friend!

    • Hi Mags! Mr. Bowie’s having a wonderful time on my winter duvet. I guess he’s the only one in this house who likes the winter…
      Wishing you a marvellous weekend! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!” and sends his regards!

  4. The cats here say there is nothing like soft blankets and duvets. Wishing you and Mr. Bowie an wonderful Sunday, Herman! Hope you are getting lots of dark chocolate and espresso to get through the winter days.

    Old Willow’s kidneys are getting worse now. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

    • Hi Lavinia! So sorry to read about Old Willow’s kidneys problem… I will keep her in my thoughts and prayers for sure…

      We had a cold but sunny day and I went for a short walk. Mr. Bowie stayed home (of course) and enjoyed the winter duvet on my bed…
      Hope you’re having a wonderful day, my friend! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!” and sends his regards to everyone of the Farm.

  5. Mr. Bowie, you look so comfortable……..and so adorable!!! We like the furry blankets Mom brings out for the winter. We also like when her brother has a fire going in the wood-burning stove. Cozy nights to you and Herman.

    • Hi there, my furry friends! I don’t like winter but I do like spending time with Mr. Bowie on the duvet… It makes me feel so good to see Mr. Bowie enjoying his time on my bed.
      Hope you’re having a wonderful day. Mr. Bowie says “Meow!” and sends his regards to Pam!
