Hammock, Part 2

Thank you to all our furriends for their suggestions after the first attempt at sewing the hammock! Mommy bought a new type of fleece and Grandma got busy then when Grandpa and Grandma came to visit yesterday, they brought us a new hammock!

Are you going to give it a try, Coco?
Coco : Errrrr, I don't think so
Felix : Okay, okay. I will test it out. I sure hope I don't *sink* again...
*sits gingerly*
3...2......1....
Felix : HEY! It didn't sink and it is super comfy!
Meow-Me : Can you see how pretty the trimmings are? Grandma did such a beautiful job!
Felix : LOOK! The both of us can fit in the hammock and it holds up really well!
Boomer : It may be pink but it doesn't faze a confident mancat like me!
Katie darling, I'll bring the hammock when I come visit and we can snuggle.  xoxo
Boomer : Can't wait for Mommy to finish getting my snacks ready so I can fire up the tunnel and visit my girl!
You may kiss my toes while I wait...
Hey. Introoder on our blog! Who are you!?
This is a stray intact tomcat who liked to visit the kitties as they lounged at the catio but it would get Boomer all riled up. I managed to catch him on Wednesday night with the help of my brother who came by to visit. He (the cat, not my brother) was neutered on Thursday and spent a night before being released on Friday afternoon. Here he is just after being released.
Boomer : Spitty, if you look *closely*, you might be able to see something oddly and eerily familiar to your very recent "tutoring" session. MOL.
Thank you Grandma! The hammock is perfect and so well made! We LOVE it! *kiss*

Much better now! Cats don't sink with the new hammock. Great work: the hammock and take care of the stray one!

We are glad to know you have stopped sinking in your hammock - it looks great and we're sure it will be in great demand. Your intruder kitty looks a very sweet guy.
Luv Hannah nd Lucy xx xx

I LOVE the new hammock. What a clever loving set of grandparents you kitties have! Your momma too of course, MOL. Boomie I can't wait to try the new hammock if the others won't be sad with it missing a while.

Are we having chick-hen snacks? Your mom makes the best. My mom is not nearly as good. I'll be waiting on this end of the tunnel for your arrival and those toes? THE most kissable! You are such a big strong boy! And your toesies are just edible. Watch out for my mom. She will not want to stop holding them and giving them kisses. xox
