SO Close Little Buddy

"I am so sneaky....no one will EVER be able to find me in here!!"

This picture cracked me up and I thought I would share!  This is our buddy cat, Sebastian, and he is trying to fit into his tiny cat stand.  As you can see, he is just a smidge too big!

I think he really wishes he was smaller, especially because Belle is so tiny and easily fits into all the places he can't.  Poor buddy...he really is a special cat!

Kristen.....Do you think it is bigger on the inside?!

Because you asked Two Pretzels!!

Because you requested this I thought I would post a picture of what happens when you bring your stuffed animal to work on “Bring your Pet to Work Day” and leave it alone with your friends! See the story behind this over at The View From My Fishbowl’s weekly “Feast”!! I am totally going to find the other pics and send those around to the "Captors"!!

Yes, you are seeing that right. Her hands are tied together with a rubber band, she has a bandana over her eyes, and she is sitting in an overhead cabinet of a fellow co-workers. NICE)

My Own "Velveteen Rabbit"

Above is a picture of my favorite stuffed animal - Kitty! Kitty has been with me since I was 6 years old or so!!! I sleep with Kitty every night, yes EVERY night. She is usually under my head or tucked under my arm. She is worn, has holes, lost her whiskers, is pretty flat (not much stuffing left), and couldn't be more loved and a necessary comfort for me.



I know a grown married women of 27 probably shouldn't still be sleeping with a stuffed animal, but I can honestly say I don't remember a time when Kitty hasn't been next to me. I truly get upset thinking some day she will be put up on a shelf b/c she will be too worn to snuggle with. (Can not think about it)



Anyways, here is my problem. Kitty hasn't been washed in sometime now. (sorry - kinda gross, I know) I keep little night gowns on her so I can wash those or throw them away so that I am not laying directly on kitty. However, after my last cold, the fact that I am still sick AND my eye infection came back - I have realized that Kitty may need some form of cleaning to get germs off of her. Here is the thing though - I don't know how to proceed in a most delicate way! Kitty would not survive the washing machine and I am afraid to spray her with Lysol / fabreeze combo as I do sleep on her and I don't know if those can be next to my face.



So I guess I am asking to see if anyone has any suggestions on a good way to "disinfect" my kitty without ruining her or using too harsh a chemicals. My poor Kitty!!



On a side note: since my eye infection came back I had to get rid of the brand new sleep mask I just bought! It was WONDERFUL!! I am SO beyond tired of being sick! I have had something wrong with me for about 6 weeks now - UGH!
