Awww Mondays

Join us every Monday for Awww…Mondays.

Post a picture that makes you say Awww…and that’s it.

Make sure you leave a link to your post and I’ll visit your Awww…Mondays post.

What better way to start the week than with a smile.

Lil’ Bit had to check out what dad was doing. She said she can’t read any of this because it’s in German. Squeaker just decided she would lounge on the scratcher. Sorry about the messy floor we hadn’t vacuumed yet.

    Happy Monday! Another week begins…..if we get any more rain here we will float away – Mom says Dad needs to start building an ark for us. What’s an ark?

    Hugs, Teddy

      I hope the rain stops and the sun comes out soon. It’s summer here. We’ve already had triple digit weather. A hug to you and lots of scritches to handsome Teddy. 🙂

  3. Ann Thompson says:

    I wouldn’t have been able to read it either if it was in German. Those floors look cleaner than mine. With a dog in the house it’s hard to keep them clean. I mopped yesterday and Gibbs walked across the wet floor covering it in paw prints.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      We find the kitties pretty messy too. It doesn’t take much to vacuum each morning. Happy week, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. 🙂

    Sandee you got the worker bee and the chill out bee,and not vacuuming is the worst thing you ever do that ain’t so bad.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      We usually vacuum each day, but now and then we miss a day. Yes a worker bee and a chill out bee. Happy Monday and week, Mike. Thanks for playing along. Scritches to Screwball. 🙂

  7. The Z Kids’ Mama says:

    Aw, the kitties are cutie-pies!! And I can’t read German either, even though as far back as I know all my ancestors are German – on both sides. I took French in elementary school because I had no choice, skipped language in Junior Hi, and finally was allowed to take Spanish in High School. Oh! And if you hadn’t said anything, I would never noticed you hadn’t vacuumed yet. The Z Kids shed more Golden fur in an hour than Lil Bit and Squeaker probably shed in a week or even a month! I literally had to buy a carpet rake to keep up with it because it kept choking the vacuum.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Hubby was stationed in Germany during the Vietnam war. He loved it. We got rid of carpeting and went with faux wood. Only the stairs has carpet. Easy to keep clean. Happy Awww Monday and week. 🙂

  8. Heidrun ⛱ says:

    Yes, I’m sure, cats can smile. We see this on many days with the neighbourhood cat.

    Thank you for sharing and for hosting.
    Have a wonderful week, greetings by Heidrun

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I think you’re right about cats smiling. Happy Awww Monday and week, Heidi. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I agree. Happy Monday and week. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      We are so pleased they chose us to be their personal assistants. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

    Lil’B just very very nice to be near Dad I know. As for the floor Squeaker…it looks PURRfectly fine to me.
    A funny German story
    Willie was a new German Post Doc in Physics. He quite a dry and unexpected wit. WE had a grad student whose name was Morgan. One day when Morgan walked in the lab for a group meeting. Willie said Morgen, Morgan. The entire lab cracked up. From that day forward everyone said Morgen, Morgan to Morgan.
    Hugs Cecilia

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      She loves her dad very much. He was the one that worked hard to get her inside. Love the Morgan, Morgan. You made me chuckle. Love and hugs. 🙂

    Tails Around the Ranch says:

    Such adorable pics of your fur kids. Never fear, Squeaker…I have to have my trusty Langenscheidt if I’m reading German text too. 😉 Happy Monday!

      Sandee says:

      Zane loves practicing German. He does it often. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Wilson. 🙂

        Good for him! I try to follow a German friend’s Instagram account and not cheat hitting the translate button when I have enough time. I can often glean the gist but idioms really mess with my brain. 😉 Hugs and tail wiggles from me and Wilson.

  13. CAAC says:

    Lil Bit is curious. I love the very up close shot! lol Squeaker looks like he’s ready to bolt. He probably heard you say something about vacuuming and was unsure if he should stay or go. Thanks for the smiles!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      As soon as the vacuum comes out they both bolt for the stairs. You won’t see them until the vacuuming is done. Love and hugs, Cathy. 🙂

      We think so, too. We love our kitties. Happy Monday and week, my friend. 🙂

    Xena and Lucy says:

    German? Why is it in German? And I didn’t see any messy floor (seriously!) Mine is constantly messy except right after I vacuum, about once a week!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Hubby loves to learn different languages and German is one of them. We usually vacuum every day to keep the floors clean. The kitties are messy. 🙂

    They are so precious, and I’m sorry my comment is so late, the last two days have been non-stop. I pray you and Mr. Zane and the kitties have a blessed week!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Take time for you, my friend. You work far too hard. Love you. 🙂

    Magical Mystical Mimi says:

    My pup is definitely like Lil’ Bit. He always needs to know what I’m doing and if he needs me for whatever reason he uses his paws to stop my crocheting or typing and he’ll scratch on my craft table to stop me from sewing! He has me trained and I don’t mind at all. Love you Sandee and your little kitties too. I wish I could have a Squeaker. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      They are so precious, aren’t they. Yes, they are. I can’t give you Squeaker. Love you back, Karen. 🙂
