Once again it’s time for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop and once again we are thankful for the many blessings in our lives. The challenging times continue here in our neck of the woods. Today, however, we are most thankful for snuggles, yes, seriously, snuggles.
We all refer to the cooler times in the South as Snuggle Season. That means that the Mom will soon be getting out the extra plush throws when she spends time on the couch in the evenings. Of course Mom couch time means some of us get the opportunity to snuggle with Mom in the nice plush throw. Actually, Sister Zoe and I are the main snuggle kitties. Every once in a while Sister Kit will give it a try, although Brother Simon has his eyes on the prize, so to speak. Oh, and Sister Seal is actually practicing her Mom snuggles too.
This time of year we’ve got those warm days and cool nights. Yes, we know that crazy Old Man Winter will be here before you know it. That also means that it’s time for the Dad to start preparing some feral areas for colder times. They already have a heated house but I think we’ll be adding at least one more, maybe two. They have some secret areas where they keep warm but adding some more warm space might just be what they need. There are some younger ferals who haven’t experienced cold temperatures yet so we want to make sure to give them some options.
In the meantime, I’m thankful for the opportunity to snuggle with the Mom, it makes my feet go happy! What are you thankful for today? Tell us in the comments and then join us for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop, we’d really like that.
Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!
Snuggling must be nice but I’m not there yet. If I try to get near one of the peeps, they run and there’s always something between us. I dunno why.
I’m really thankful that my guest cat Dexter is still here and let me kiss and hug him all day. One of his fellow critters and a good pal was put down today and it’s been very sad. It’s wonderful that you’re thinking ahead to winter, it’s finally a little cooler here so maybe this endless summer is finally over. I wish Dexter was a world-class snuggler like you and Zoey.
Snuggling is a very good thing! And you’re right … snuggling season has officially opened here, too. 🙂
Thank you for hosting the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. Love and hugs to you!
We love snuggles season too and are we are pretty lucky it stays pretty cool here all year round!

We love snuggle season! It may be getting cold outside, but it’s all warm and fuzzy in here. Purrs and prayers to all of you!
We love snuggling with the Mom and each other.
Snuggling can’t be beat. Also great idea to add some more spots with heat.
Snuggly blanket season is the best! Warm blanket warm kitty warm human!
So thankful those ferals have you to keep them warm this winter.
We are so thankful for your peeps and all the good things they do for those feral cats. That is just terrific. Glad to hear it is starting the snuggle season. Hope that Seal is adjusting to being out of her room. You all have a great day and gives some scritches to Sascha for us.
We love the snuggle season! It’s great Sister Seal is practicing mom snuggles 🙂
Your feral kitties are very lucky to get such good care. xo
Happy to hear Sister Seal is learning the fine art of snuggle time with Mom!
Hugs, Teddy
We can tell how cold it is by how many kitties are in bed when we wake up. 🙂 I am glad your folks make warm shelters for the poor ferals.

Emma abstained from lap time with mama over the summer, to mom’s confusion and disdain. But she started going back to the lap a couple of days ago. Yap, cooler weather is fun time for mom.

Happy feet, Brian! That’s the name of the game, isn’t it?!?
Still sending purrs and hugs to all of you!
We bet you all love the snuggle season. We aren’t big snugglers, but Dad says he thinks if Timber were an only pup, he would be a snuggler. He likes to sleep on Mom’s feet:)

A very sweet photo! Our Gracie likes to snuggle late in the evening whatever the season.
Snuggle season sounds like a good time of year.
We are downright chilly today, but my mom is loving it! xoxo
I just love snuggle season! That’s when I start to sleep right on top of Mommy every night. I have to make sure she’s nice and warm.
Acho que é a melhor época do ano. Miauhihi

It’s definitely cooling down here, Brian, and we’ve been snuggling more. And the cooler weather means the blankets come out which makes snuggling even better.
Brian, great minds think alike! We are thankful for exactly the same thing!
We are thankful that we could stop by today to see your snuggling picture. Snuggle on…all of you <3 Double Pawkiss to you all 🙂 <3
We are thankful that Lily Olivia seems to be cruising toward 19 years old. We have two days of temps in the 80s. Here’s hoping that’s the end of summer. We think our mom lieks snuggle time as much as us kitties. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo and Cooper Murphy
Snuggle time in front of the fire is imminent here! MOL
Autumn/Fall is our most fav time of year 🙂

Lucy’s snuggle season has begun… She’s cuddled up with me every night this week. I’m loving it, but I worry when we finally put the heat on she’ll abandon me again…
