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 loves to look out the windows to see what’s going on outside. She will sit in front of whatever window or door she wants us to open. Cats speak very loudly if we just take the time to listen. Of course we open the shutters as she has asked us to do.

      She loves sitting at this door and watching the world go by. We had a cat visit the other day. They just stared at each other. Scritches to Duke. 🙂

      She’s at that door often so we open the shutters each morning for her. She enjoys the sun puddle in the afternoon too. 🙂

    Lil’ Bit is a “watcher” – Teddy does that too and if the weather outside is stormy, I can stand at a window for a VERY long time just watching as well!

    Hugs, Pam

    Callie likes to look out the window too, and she is very vocal. She comes up to hubby, and me, and meows, and I swear it sounds like she is saying hello. I wish I understood her different meows. Happy Monday! Hugs.

    Such a sweetie. Most cats would pull on the blinds and destroy them rather than wait. Thanks for hosting. Have a nice day. XO

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

      We have shutters and Lil’ Bit knows how to open them. Often in the morning we’ll find them open. You have a great day and week, Ellen. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to the kitties. 🙂

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

      Both our kitties are sweet and loving. We’re so happy we took them in. Happy week. 🙂

    Lil’Bit I love that your staff pays attention to your very obvious desires.
    Angel Madi loved being brushed. When she wanted a good brushing, she would sit in front of the end table where I kept her brush.

    Good Morning Sandee, the way my sliding windows are made Screwball just parks himself on the ledge of the windows the left side and looks out, in the living room I have a sliding door and makeshift “shade” had a gap at the bottom so he just lays down and looks out.

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

      They love the windows for sure. Looking out is a good thing. Happy day and week, Mike. Scritches to Screwball. 🙂

      We’re lucky to have our kitties and each other. I love you, my Wonderful Husband. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      She sure has and so has Squeaker. Happy week. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

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

      She wants that shutter open each morning and we make sure we open it. She spends a lot of time there. Love and hugs to you and Ziggy. 🙂

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

      That sure happens here and often. They have many windows they can view the world from. Happy day and week, Heidi. 🙂

    My girls can stare out the window for hours. Yes, cats do let you know what they want. Lil Bit looks like she’s quite content viewing the outside world. Happy Monday!

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

      Ours do too. The have a bird feeder in the front window and they spend a lot of time watching the birds. Such fun for them. Happy Monday and week, Yvonne. 🙂

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

      We always wonder what they are thinking. We love our kitties. Happy week, my friend. Scritches to the pups. 🙂

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

      We can’t imagine life without them either. They bring us such joy. Happy Awww Monday and week, Sweet Dany. 🙂

      We love our kitties very much. They come first. Happy week. 🙂

    Suzette Benjamin says:

    Oh Lil’ Bit has a beautiful pattern to her coat. She is so elegant and poised checking out the outdoors. Great photo. You are right, cats know well how to communicate what they desire.
    Happy Awww Monday, Sandee, blessings and much love and hugs to you!

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

      We love watching her too. Double Pawkisses to you both and a big hug to Granny. 🙂

  9. The OP Pack says:

    We bet Lil Bit is a good kitty and doesn’t rub her snooter all over the windows like we do. Mom used to blame the grands’ sticky fingers for all the marks on the windows when they were toddlers. But now that they are all grown up, she realized it was all the doings of her pups:)

      Squeaker is the one that rubs her snooter all over the windows. We just wash them often. Scritches to the pups and a big hug to you. 🙂

      When I come back in my next life I want to be a cat, too. Happy week, my friend. 🙂

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

      She’s come a long way from the feral kitty when we first found her. Love and hugs, my friend. 🙂

  10. Kit, Kat, Rocky & Cali says:

    What do you see Lil Bit? We love to watch the squirrel, birds, chipmunks, and when the sunsets the rascally raccoons appear. Never a dull moment. By the way, you looks beautiful from behind❣️😻❤️ Kit & The Kitties

      We don’t have the wonderful sights you have, but lots of birds. We love all of you. 🙂

  11. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    What a little cutie sitting by the door, she is gorgeous! Happy Tuesday Sandee, we hope mew’re having the best week!

      We’re having a great week. I hope you are too. Love and hugs to you and scritches to all the kitties. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      Yes there is and we make sure they can see out any window they wish. 🙂

    They can be surprisingly patient and insistent simultaneously. Such a cute photo. Happy (albeit belated) Monday. Hope it was grand and the rest of the week is pawsome!

    She looks quite focused on whatever she is watching. Our cats have certain windows they like best. Calista Jo and Cooper–living room, Kizmet and Lisbeth–kitchen, Kizmet and Audrey–bedroom.
