Cozy Caturday Art

Though our winter has been feeling rather mild these days, we are still only in January. Where we live, winter can easily strike in full force in February, and sometimes even into March or April. So, that of course means that we're still the mood for some winter art!

For today's Caturday Art blog hop, hosted by lovely Athena, we wanted to show how even a cold winter night can be perfectly cozy. The furbabies and I all love snuggling up on such nights, enjoying the company of each other, and that of a good book or TV show, and of course a hot cup of cocoa. Long story short, that all resulted in this:


How do all of our furiends out there like to spend their winter nights? Snuggling, we hope!

Wishing everybuddy a warm and cozy Caturday!

Our Tip of the Day:
Always be cautious when leaving anything hot in a cat or dog's presence, including a drink such as hot coffee, tea, or cocoa. Just like our tip yesterday noted, our furbabies, especially those kitties, often not only have a high tolerance for pain but also hide it well. They also do not necessarily have the same understanding as we do with regard to an object being hot. So, in order to prevent your kitty or pup from dipping a paw or lapping their tongue in your hot drink, be sure to leave it out of their reach, and never leave them unattended with a hot item. Scalds from hot liquids and burns from objects such as a stove or open flame can turn into serious injuries, so always keep all hot items out of your furbaby's reach!

Very cute art, I wish I could step right into it and cuddle on the chair with the kitty while sipping coffee and reading- a perfect day. Great tip too.

What a sweet drawing, sweet pals! That looks purrfect to us! On cold winter nights, we like to have a fire in the fireplace, and then we all curl up on the couch. :)

That's so beautiful!

We like to snuggle up on winter nights and watch TV. Before bed I'll have a cup of herbal tea and Athena usually wants to play a bit. Then it's off to bed with Athena snuggled up against my leg or at my side.

It felt like April here today. Thimble looks comfy and I'm sure you can trust her with the cocoa. Love the art.
