Cats sleep, anywhere,
Any table, any chair
Top of piano, window-ledge,
In the middle, on the edge,
Open drawer, empty shoe,
Anybody's lap will do,
Fitted in a cardboard box,
In the cupboard, with your frocks-
Anywhere! They don't care!

Cats sleep anywhere.

what a beautiful peaceful cat, our cats did indeed sleep anywhere and we had baskets on all our book shelves for them,, I miss them so much
Oh he's so gorgeous. Yes they can sleep anywhere, anytime. Bit like my husband!
Oh, he is so beautiful. Just look at those sweet and pretty toes. Perfect. And yes, they do sleep anywhere - happily even.
Thank you for such a cute photo and poem.

He looks to get his share of naps.
I love seeing those pretty cat toes, they look so soft! Lovely picture and poem, Jo. :-)
Bless! Love it....
And there's one similar..only for mice....
MICE.....
Their tails are long, their faces small,
They haven't any chins at all,
I think mice are rather nice.
Their ears are pink, their teeth are white,
They run about the house at night,
I think mice are rather nice.
They nibble things they shouldn't touch,
And no-one seems to like them much.
But I think mice are nice! :).

Oliver is one of my favorite cats on the blog. He seems to be always sleeping. I like his color of fur.
