Earlier this year, a very dear friend of ours spun Madi's fur into yarn. I used half of the yarn (gray rows) in this scarf I made for myself.
WELL GUESS WHAT I WAS WRONG.
THIS IS MADI'S FIRST REACTION TO THE 'HAND MADE WITH LOVE AFGHAN'....
She looks as if she is saying....get that thing away from me....
THIS IS MADI'S FIRST REACTION TO THE 'HAND MADE WITH LOVE AFGHAN'....
She looks as if she is saying....get that thing away from me....
Then she decides to give her fur (gray row) a
sniff.....
She carefully stepped around it
to place her tush on the corner of this very old and ragged towel which was not 'made with her Mom's loving hands'. She glares at it for a moment....
Then turns her head in disgust!!!!
All owned by cats, know they don't like change and it takes them a while to warm up to things and yes maybe I was a little pushy...but this is not Madi's 'oh Mom thanks a ton for working your fingers to the bones to make me an afghan face'!!
Maybe she was wondering where her blue fur came from! :)
ReplyDeleteOMD, I don't even knows what to say...fur a change!
ReplyDeleteI was oooohin' and awwwwwin' overs da beautiful blankie and then to sees Madi's reaction...well, I had to bust out laughin'. Juat a guess but maybe hers thinks dis is a form of cannibalism. You knows, her furs in a blankie. Kittehs always amaze me.
Howevers, I Puddles always appreciate handmade things cuz dat takes a talent dat mum lacks...hehehe! Oh and da spinning of da yarn...well, dat is way too cool so props to who evers did dat too.
Puddles
MOL... Madi will come around... maybe...
ReplyDeleteThe afghan is beautiful.
pawhugs, Max
I thinks Madi is just playin' wif you! ;)
ReplyDeleteDat afghan sure is beootiful!
Woofs and Licks,
Maggie Mae
But Madi, the blankie is soooooo pretty!
ReplyDeleteMadi, how can you not like that afghan? It's lovely & looks soooo comfy & soft!
ReplyDeleteYep, we're like that too! The mom occasionally knits and will make little throws for us, but we mostly ignore them and lie on the carpet or a store-bought blanket. :-P

Madi, my dear? You're so typical. I suppose you gave it a small hiss when it was presented to you too?!!! But, trust me...that pipe of yours is running low on burn time...either get off the 'pot' and smoke it...or you'll be sorry!

Have a glorious day! And thanks for dropping by for a visit yesterday and leaving your comments!
Madi probably tinking someting went seriously wrong...her is somehow IN da blankie.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful blanket! Maybe Madi doesn't want to mess it up yet!! Lots of love, Holly and mom
ReplyDeleteOh Madi it won't hurt you.... I love to stick my nose in the spinning wheel when Beth is spinning my fur. I think it's cool!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping Madi will eventually like it Mom.
ReplyDeleteOne word to describe the Diva: Persnickety!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it doesn't smell like her fur any more and that's why she's suspicious.
Too bad, it is a cute and cozy work of love!

Well, you can't expect a girl to get all giddy when that darn flashing beast is around, now can you?
ReplyDeleteI think it's a beautiful afghan. I hope that Madi decides that it is the perfect place to park her lovely bum, soon. But, you know, my cats don't like new things either, at least at first. But, just let one try it, and it becomes a contest to see who is going to be next.
ReplyDeleteWow, I think that is pretty amazing that your friend made yarn out of MAdi's fur...or did I read that wrong? I've always said I could make another cat out of all the fur I get, but I guess a blanket is a more practical idea - LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteIf Madi doesn't warm up to it just send it my way "FLORIDA"
ReplyDeleteI'll share it with Gloribee
Um, Miss HiC? I bets she's mad cuz she thinks you stole her furs without permission. You prolly oughta apologize. And soon.
ReplyDeleteWiggles & Wags,

PeeS. Cap'n ripley would prolly just faint clean away if you sent that to him. Just sayin'.

*woof*
the booker man
pee s -- oh, i forgot to woof that mama said she could always use your beautimous afghan as a lap warmer!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI hates to burst your bubble but mum ain't DAT enviromentally conscious...her just happens to be da only idiot to walk her dogs there so everybuddy would haves known who da culprit was...hehehehehehe! Howevers, I ikes your theory and dats da one I'm gonna stick with.

This reminds me of a very funny story. So, you know my mom volunteers at the shelter where I was adopted. Well, a few years back they expanded one of the cat rooms (the cats are all free-roaming and not in cages). When they finally opened the door to the new space the cats just stared at it and refused to enter the new room. It seriously took 24 hours before any of them would venture into their new room!
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
That is a really nice blanket you made. We sure hope Madi warms up to it because it would be a shame to hafta give it to someone else (Madi, are you listening???).
ReplyDeleteMiss Madi
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful afghan!
We all think you will find the beauty in it too.

Maybe Madi is wondering if you are hiding another cat in "her" house, you know...the blue one.
ReplyDeleteI suspect in the near future Miss Diva Madi will be adding more fur to the afghan in her way. But regardless of what Madi thinks we think it is beautiful.
I was in mid comment here last night when our cable company decided it would be a good time to shut things down to service the system. Oh well!
How funny!!
ReplyDeleteMadi, I can hear you sayin....as if!!!! BOL
